FREAKY FRIDAY CHALLENGE WEIGH IN TODAY*** BLOGGERS REPORT YOUR LOSSES**** READY...SET....GO**** COME JOIN IN ALL THE FUN ON THE FREAKY FRIDAY PARTY WEIGH IN BLOG****

It's time for the 3rd weigh in on this Freaky Friday Challenge!  Good luck to everyone!  Let's get this party started.

Now is the time to get ready for summer and what a great way to start with a challenge.  Remember Friday to Friday weigh ins so everyone will be the same.   

We will report our loss on the Freaky Friday Challenge blog parties each Friday.  Report right here on any of my Freaky Friday Challenge blogs (Letsmove). 

Stay 100% on plan.  Eating 3 meals, 1 snack, 1 dessert and drinking 8-10 glasses of water everyday, not just some days.  Follow the plan Nutrisystem has put you on.

Exercise 3 to 4 days each week for 20-40 minutes at a time.  Walking is a great way to start exercising. I walk some everyday and wear a pedometer. A pedometer is a wonderful little motivator that is worth every penny.  Wal-mart carries them for around $4-$5.

Report your loss on my blog (Letsmove) on Fridays or before if needed.  This is a commitment and is a big part of this challenge. 

We will have the biggest blog party each Friday and that is where you will report your loss for that week. We will have an Award Ceremony on Saturdays on the challenge blog to celebrate all your victories. Check in daily and report your good and off days, but not weight until fridays.

Our pledgers are karensmarks, justlucy, kathrynk8, changa6925, kenricva, brindy413, ryansprincess, hvnlyhills, 321_blastoff, brittysmom, ready_to_look_gr8, enfant4, raglady, babalouie, jordjess2, plummer08, betti13, kerime, carwash2, darlenenew, bbbbb32000, 40_b4_40, puglover1999, dedeelighted, flutepharm87, pattytx, shello60, mommyof3angels, wodell, btonasket, abshoelutely, gebee, cloudnine, mborras, scv218, drhennel, mailoss, roykat, bettie4d, amydoodledo, genevievredelamere, gingstak, heavynomore1, big_dog_momma, rdkoos, spiritwind, dianna03077, obsidian88, refocused, life_light, timcahill98, gingericht, missliznj, mmcknatt, ladygail, sillyrabbit65, biggersam, dlynne3962, chonkie, packster, jerikin, nlwnicolelee, boricuablue, tightandfit, connie1220, beachbecca, hipster7, candie_girl, mountaineer47, danigolightly, 2bfitby40, blanquita19, going2bhotnsexy, holandcamsmom, yoliesooner, lovshelties, coco_chanelle, tylersmom85, bflanders2,brindy413, radiant_rebecca, cindiesimons, mrsbrandi, kbrewer6441, gnp-tx, and cyndi_lulu.

Three weeks down in our Freaky Friday Challenge.  How do you feel?  Do you feel like you are getting somewhere with this? Are you losing those unwanted pounds?  Today is our weigh in day, so let's see what that scale is saying today.  Good luck everyone.

Let's get this party started.

Have a great day.

By the way my DH has been calling the puppy Little Buddy.  He said yesterday he just can't come up with anything different.  See Buddy was our Lab that got killed by a car last year. Sherri is still at camp, so no names from her but Hank.  I have tried about eight names but none that stick or the only one he likes is Baby.  He seems to like the B names.  Eric will just say OH don't call him that or NO to different names.  He does like the idea of calling him Little Buddy too. The guys have tried different names even Butthole, lol, because pugs tails are mostly up showing off their hole. Of cource I wasn't going for that one. :o)

First day of summer Cathy.  It has been so hot for two weeks or more that I thought we were smack in the middle of summer.  How about that.  Good job on not gaining this week Cathy.  We need to loosen up that glue for you.  Have a great day.  Marie

How did you do, Marie??
I will weigh in on the 30th. Sucks I can't do it now. But this gives me another week to work hard. Haven't been doing too much of that cuz I didn't have my gym shoes til 2 days ago. But....I'm getting into it now. I even got up really early this morning and did ab work.
Good luck to everyone!!!

Good Morning Marie,  I like the name Little Buddy - is cute.  We have a Coton de Tulear (breed from Madigascar - cousin to Bichon), his name is Filoha, which is Maligasy for Chef.  The breeder named him before we got him, but I think it was more than a coincidence that my husband is a Chef and the puppy was a surprise to both Brittany and I for Christmas.  Anyway, I'm at 185 this week, down .8 from last week.  Not much, but I'll take it especially since I don't deserve it due to my lack of 100% days.   Have a wonderful weekend.  Judy

Good morning everyone!!  I am down a 1/2 lbs. this week for a total of 5 lbs. in three weeks.  My weight as of today is 140.5.  I don't think next week will be any better due to the fact that I am going down the shore for a couple of days for the BIG BIRTHDAY.  I will be good for breakfast and lunch (will bring my NS bars) and will try to do good with dinners.  Mainly I am excited to go and spend some time with my husband.  have a great day!!

BIG_DOG_MOMMA said:
OK, as much as I hate to report bad news, I know I have to be honest about this.  I was afraid this might happen because of my lack of exercise due to my elbow injury.  And since I wasn't exercising in the evenings, I was giving into all kinds of snacking temptations.  So...I actually put on 1.4 pounds this week and am at 174.8 (ouch), but seeing that now gives me motivation to get back on NS 100%.  The doc said I have severe tendonitis in my elbow, but it's beginning to feel much better so I hope to be able to get back to some real fat-burning type exercising by this Sunday.  Also, he did say he was very proud of the weight loss I had achieved so far and that my blood test results looked great...almost everything was towards the lower end of normal ranges and nothing at all was above normal ranges.  One small problem though, he said that my CBC showed that I'd become anemic, so now I'm on something called Vitron C to boost my iron levels.  I don't care for some of the side effects, especially the nausea, but hey, maybe that will help me to lose even more weight, eh?  :)     So, even though the scale went in the wrong direction this week, I feel like I had some significant NSVs!  Have a good weekend everyone!

Good morning all.  I had a very tough week we had SAP training on Monday and Tuesday so lunch was provided both days but I did not touch anything.  And a big safety training for our field employees on Wednesday and Thursday and Adam's Rib provide lunch and that was tough I love their food, but I convinced myself that if I left it alone on Wed, I could have something on Thursday.  So I had half a burger and less then a teaspoon of the the pasta salad (it is so good) on Thurs.  Thank you Marie for the burger idea!   I am very very excited to say I am down 1.6 this week, I was convinced I would stay the same or be up a little.  My working out fell to the side with early days and late nights at work.  So I am aiming for 100% on plan food and workout for week 4.   Congrats to everyone for sticking with the challenge ~ Robin

Good Morning to All Freaky Friday Friends.  Congrats to all who are participating and your successes -- whether it is a loss; status guo, or no loss -- it is the fact you are here and trying.

Well, the week of trial is behind me -- we recessed until November with a bifurcated case... :-(  Conflicting schedule of the Judge.

I have to say....YahOOOOO... I am so proud of myself.  I did not gain, but instead I lost 0.7# during this week of high stress.  I ate my breakfast in route (dried fruits, string cheese, and the breakfast bar); lunch salad and lunch bar... supper -- what is that... no supper/dinner; yes to dessert/night snack just before retiring for the day.  I did not consume the required amount of water because of fear of literally bursting--since court rooms are ran on the Judge's personal needs and NOT those who are sitting at the tables or who are transcribing.

All in all --- things were good... I lost, I am exhausted... and tomorrow is another day.  I have until July 4 to reach my final goal ---- then onto maintanence.

Got run...getting ready for another trial.  NEED a VACATION...

Love to you.. Stay cool --- Safe Summer.

Hi Marie, I didn't lose or gain when I check the scale this morning. I think it might have to do with the added stress I had this week. I hope to see results next friday.Have a great weekend

Hey Vanessa!  As long as you stay on plan everything will be great for the 30th weigh in.  Have a great day.  Oh I had the munchies for three days in a row, but I did manage to drop one of those three pounds I put on.  Thanks for asking.  That makes me at 117 today.  Marie

Good job Judy.  I think that freaky friday the 13th threw us off, lol.  That's my story and I'm sticking to it.  It amazing that the puppy was called that!  How perfect for your family.  Have a great day.  Marie

Hi everyone. Looks like everyone is doing good.  Is next Friday our last weigh in or will we all be meeting on the 30th for the last day of June?  I lost .5# which isn't too bad considering the week I had.  I started the workouts "on demand" on our cable, that's a nice change to the walking video.  Does anyone know of a tuesday challenge?  I think I sabotage myself from friday to tuesday and then get back on track before weigh in.  Maybe if I had another weigh in to make me accountable it would help me.  Are we all going to be doing another challenge for July?  This seems to really help me.

Don't be so hard on yourself Maureen.  You know life happens and yes sometimes we slip, but that is not the end.  Today is a new beginning and I am also taking that step with you.  Let's be 100% from today all the way through the weekend and right through the next weigh in on Friday.  Are you in?  I pledge to be 100% from this moment until our very next weigh in Friday June 27th.  Today is the first day of summer, so lets enter summer with putting our best foot forward.  Let's do it!  Marie

Hello everyone!  Happy Freaky Friday!  And a special Hello to Marie - I hope things are cooling down for you this week.

I'm at 166.6 lbs today.  Can't remember if that's a loss or not, but I'm still happy with it.  I can't remember the last time I was at this weight....maybe something like 5 years out of college.  Woohoo!

Keep up the good work everyone!

Hey Jen!  Great job on the .5 lb lost.  We will have two more weigh ins.  Next Friday and since I promised to take you through June the last weigh in will be July 1st.  Weekends seem to give everyone a hard time, including me.  So I am repledging to stay 100% from this moment through the weekend all the way until our next weigh in on Friday.  How about you?  I will blog and let you know how I do all weekend and you can get on my blog and let me know how you are doing too.  How about that?  Will that help?  Have a great day.  Marie

Sounds good Marie.  I thankfully picked up a shift at m part-time job (the children's place clothing store).  I only work there every 90 days for the discount.  I asked for an 8 hour shift.  I figured it would keep me away from the food.  I work at home so it's really hard to stay on track when you have free reign to eat whenever you wan't.  Sunday will be nice to work out of the home and keep me in check.  It's at the mall but i've never had a problem with the food court, I'll just pack my meals.  Good luck, I'll be checking in.  Any idea if there will be a challenge next month?

OK so puppy's name is Little Buddy.  Darlene you were not alone in not exercising or staying 100% on plan this week.  This week will be different.
Repledge to stay 100% right on through the weekend and into next week until we reach Friday.  You can do it.  Join us to be the best you can be this week.  No cheating.  I will not cheat.  Not even once this week, no matter what.  This week I will be 100% on plan all week.  You can do it too.  Marie

Hello, I'd like to join.
We have a weigh-in on Fridays at work, however that Challenge end on July 3(Thursday cause of the Holiday) needless to say I'm winning....YAH  $170 dollars (12 weeks challenge).  Anyway, being that it ends I need to be held accountable for weigh in's and This looks like the spot to be ;)

Currently I just weighed in at 195.2  Down 32.8 pounds since 3-26-08.  

(I've only lost .2 since last week...it's been a tough week to lose) I just had a death in my family, (my birth father) and with all the family gatherings, it has made it difficult to get to "my" food.  And then my auto delivery was delayed one week, because I had to change my cash card (because I had lost it) so the billing was messed up.  However I should recieve my shipment anytime.    Probably more info then you all need here....but anyway, I'm back on the wagon, and ready to lose the 40.2 I have to make my goal.

I appreciate all the support and look forward to the support of this weigh-in group!!!

Keep your spirits HIGH!!

I'm loving how everyone is repledging to stay on track (or get back on track!).  What a great group this is.  I'm also going to repledge, even though I've lost some lbs this week (I was surprised!).  I did not stay 100% on plan (I'm loving those weight-watchers ice cream snacks too much!), but I will try to do better this week too.  Keep checking in over the weekend everyone and let's motivate each other to stay on track!

Good Morning Everyone!!

I'm down 2 lbs!!! :D   from 197.7 to 195.7 today.   Yesterday I was 195.2, but I did Weight Training last evening and had a late dinner.  So I am not worried!!  I feel like I'm IN THE GROOVE.  And my NSV is that have this "lightness" feeling!!!  Bending is easier, walking is easier, movement is easier.  My goal for this challenge was 195 - which I set a little low because I am such a slow loser.  But I think the weight training this week on SUN, TUES, & THURS put me on the express...  So I hope to be under goal by next Friday.  Wish me luch!  

I'll read all the posts!!  LOVE to ALL of YOU -  Ellen, from Arizona

P.S. I've notice that my wrists are looking slightly smaller.  Starting to get that "dainty" look back!

Hey Party People!  I'm down 1lb for a total of 5!  I'm at my goal so I think I'll go for as much as I can.  Well this is the weekend of my 40th!  Yikes I can't believe it.  My boyfriend is taking me away for a surprise weekend.  I can't wait!  I know I'm going to be off plan and enjoying it.   I didn't lose my 40lbs as originally planned but I have to tell you that I currently fit into a little black dress that I never had the opportunity to wear.  I have had it for 4 years.  My boyfriend bought for me and it still had the tags on it.  I'm going to wear it for my birthday on Sunday and surprise him.  Take care everyone keep up the good work~  Natalie

I am excited to report that I'm not breaking the losing streak this week!  I'm down 2 pounds this week. Over all with the down, up, down cycle I've been on...I think I'm at a total of 2 lbs gone (since the start of the challenge).  I also have to re-pledge to be 100% NS (discovered I can make some killer chicken enchilada's).  I didn't do so well this past week...my motivation was not where it had been.  I am now back where I need to be.  I pledge to put my best foot forward on this first day of summer....here I go!

Hi Marie!  OMG, I don't think I have ever been so excited about my body before today!  I weighed in and have dropped a little bit this week (down to 251 lbs.).  But that's not even what is thrilling me right now.  I didn't take any measurements until last Friday, and in one week I have lost 1½" from my bust, 2½" from my mid-section (aka, my biggest roll!), 2" from my waist and 2½" from my hips!  All in ONE WEEK!  I know this has soooooooooo much to do with the exercises I've included.  I feel I could dance forever... ok, still doing sitting down chair dancing, but it's a start!!!!

Hello everyone
I'm happy to say I am down to 143.5.  I think I was 147 last week.  It doesn't feel as victorious because on Saturday I had dropped to 144.5.  What a difference 1 day had made.  Since Saturday then, I'm down 1 pound.
June 20, 2008 02:16 PM EST
Letsmove said:
Yeah Lucy.  You have really been doing great.  Your exercising is paying off too.  Good job Lucy.  Happy dance, put those hands together and celebrate.  Marie

Brindy wonderful girl.  143.5 is great.  It won't be long now and you will be to 140!  Great NSV today.  Happy dance.  Marie

Hi Marie!  Sad to say I gained a bit this week.  Up 1 pound from last week; but still down 5.6 lbs for the month.  Some good, Some bad.  I have no excuses - I was weak.  I am going to stay 100% on the plan until the 4th of July!  My goal is 195.  How has your week been?

wow, people are going crazy with the posts today! and sorry i'm posting so late, i've just been busy lazing around all day :D this is technically my first day off, so... :p i'm down one pound, to 188. i think my late sushi night with mom yesterday kinda killed the possibility of me having a 2lbs loss for today but that's alright. i told a big long walk after getting back from the restaurant yesterday so i feel really good about myself  :) i also went on a major shopping spree and bought skinny jeans and all... XD i've been spending a good part of the day preening around in the mirror... haha! have a good freaky friday all!

I had a rough few days, but I put a stop to all the munchies I was eating and I lost one of the three pounds I had put on.  This week going2bhotnsexy I have recommited to being 100%.  That means this weekend too.  All the way through our next weigh in on Friday.  How about you?  Marie

Nessa that's great.  I am happy to see you are having this time with your mom.  I know you both missed each other.  You better get all the mom time you can because come next month you will really be missing her in Japan.  Send me a picture of you wearing those new jeans.  Woo hoo!!! Love to shop for smaller clothes.  It's so much fun isn't it Nessa.  Have a great day and blog you later.  Marie

I had to work 12 hours yesterday, so by the time I got home, I was exhausted and forgot to weigh in (oops!). However, I'm down a pound (184.8 to 183.8) so the scale is definitely going in the right direction!
June 21, 2008 09:23 AM EST
Letsmove said:
Good job Jess.  That scale is going in the right direction for sure.  Have a nice day today.  Marie

Sorry I missed yesterday - had a root canal on Thursday and took it as easy as I could yesterday.  Well, my official loss is 2 lbs this week (I'm at 191 now) YEA!!!  That's 4 toward my goal of 5 for the month (one week left) - of course, when this week is over, I'm headed to my hometown in Upstate NY for my nephew's wedding - and all the yumminess of "favorite foods" I haven't had in 5 years!  (Moderation is my motto).  
Have a great week everyone!

Anne that 5 lbs down so far.  You started at 196, 2 the 1st week, 1 last week, and 2 this week.  Way to go!  Look out for those yummies, we don't want you to gain any weight back on.  Have a great weekend.  Marie
