Nan

Ok I am not sure how many weeks I need to report. Last two weeks I have 136 points.

Yoakum Points

Nichole had 84 points and Jeff had 65 points. Thanks for doing this challenge!

Andrea-75 Points

Thanks for the challenge... and it was a challenge. I've learned that I'm better off having a little sweet and then I don't obsess. So, I've accepted that about myself, but hope to continue to moderate myself. Especially with the upcoming holiday months. Best wishes to everyone else!

If any of you want to do this again next year....let me know!!!! Make sure you get your points in by Monday, November 1st so we can award the perspective challengers their winnings on Wed.

So I'm usually losing sugar points, but this week it was the soda points that did me in. It was quite the week. Good think today is Sunday, otherwise I'm pretty sure I would have taken another trip to 7Eleven.

Marianne 83 points

I'm glad it's the last week. I'm getting ornery.
I would like to start this up again in January after I've gained my 10 lbs. back :)

It's the sugar!

It's the sugar, people. I don't know about you but when I increase the sugar in my diet I gain weight. YUK, why am I an addict?

Melanie: 84 points

Crystal - 82 points

Andrea- 75 Points

I got back from vacation over a week ago, and have struggled ever since. I've made more cookies this week than all the other weeks combined! Not a good thing. (Although I gave most of them away). I need to have a little pep talk with myself to finish out the last two week strong.

Good luck to everyone else!

166 points

Husband wanted a date Friday night which meant I loss 2 points since it was after 7:30 pm and we went to dinner. I kept complaining I was losing 2 points. He got tired of it and said, "We're on a date. Isn't 2 points worth losing so we can go out?"
I guess my priorities are a little off.
