The contest continues through the end of August and there is still time to enter, so keep posting your weights! Every 50 pounds you lose earns one entry in a drawing for gift certificates to The Old Schoolhouse Store. Read the complete rules here.
Laura (FoggyMountainFarm) lost 52 pounds so far!
Andrea (andijeane) lost 65!
April (ElCloud) lost 100.5 pounds!
Misty (3boyz) lost 120 pounds already!
Maleah is traveling 592 pounds lighter! (And she's about to have a baby--which doesn't relate to the contest, but is VERY exciting! More thrilling than decluttering even!)
Keep posting in the comments to update your totals and enter the contest! And let me know if I've miscalculated your totals. Lately my brain has needed decluttering too, as last week I added my own total wrong, inflating it by 100 pounds! So sorry! It should have read 234 instead of 334.
I can't enter my own drawing, but am "playing along" for fun. Here's my stats so far:
My first week: 54 pounds
Last week, and additional: 180 pounds
This week:
161 pounds (clothing mostly) went to goodwill!
10 pounds of books shipped out! (Well, 9 pounds 14 ounces, but 10 is nearest pound)
16 pounds of old shoes (mine) and "stuff" from the study
33 pounds of junk from the barn
My total this week: 220 pounds
My Total to date: 454 pounds (If I added right this time!)
It feels SO good to slim down! Enjoy your successes!

Everyone is doing great!!!
I have a few more pounds to report:
1 double stroller thrown out ... why I kept hanging on to it, I have no idea, it was torn and the foot thing was broke. It wasn't like we didn't have another one to use - 20 lbs
household items (storage bowls --- I had way too many and a water thermos dh used to carry to work but no longer uses because he got a bigger on) - 4lbs
Total 24 lbs
Grand Total: 76 lbs
