oh yeah...

Again, I forgot that somebody needed my email address to send me your weights. It's rls(at)mail(dot)usask(dot)ca. When it comes weigh in time (officially this friday for the challenge) you can email me or Carolyn or just post them in the comments on either of our blogs. And if you have a regular weigh in day that's not friday you can either use your day and just let us know on friday or you can do an extra weigh in just for this on fridays. Basically we only want to know on friday though alright?
Also, Swizzlepop had a link that I really liked, a frame size measurer or something that takes your wrist size and basically tells you if you really are "just big boned". I didn't put in an accurate measurement yet, I've always thought I was big boned, just because my shoulders are so much wider than other girl's. Anyway, my rough estimate here at work (I used paper and wrapped it around my wrist and then estimated the length. who had a tape at work?) and it was well into the large frame size. So I may have been right! If so, the minimum ideal weight for me would not be 130 (my goal) but 134. So we'll see how things are looking when I get down to there and we can re-evaluate. So close!

Hrm. very interesting. The calc says I have a small frame (I also have large shoulders so I always thought I had a medium frame) so my ideal weight is 120-133. Eek! I have some losing to do!

I'm going to try this out when I get home and have a measuring tape. Thanks for the link!

Hey thanks for the link Randi, I've always thought the same thing. I don't even have a goal weight. I think 134 sounds fab.

Ooh, I like this measurer... I have a large frame too... which I always kind of suspected.

Haha, in regards to your comment on my blog... Fiber One kinda does look like little worms - or tiny sticks! I'd never noticed that it was funny looking before. Have you tried it? I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! 14g fiber per 1/2 cup and only 60 cals! Nutso!
My mom was making fun of me, calling it horse feed, until she tried it, and now she loves it too. It is suprisingly sweet for a cereal without sugar.

Anyhoo, 134 in my wildest dreams, sigh, but I wish you luck in your journey!
