back in the saddle

Ahhhh- back in the 120's again... 127 again. This means one of 2 things... my workouts are paying off or I'm getting my period. Somehow I think it's the latter- but I'm enjoying it while it lasts. Still not my lowest- but sure feels better to be in my 5 pound window instead of the 10 pound garage door!!! Holly

hehe....garage door ...you are silly. And sheesh, 127? Dang...you're just going to blow away...how tall are you?

I was 5' 6"- but now I think I may be 5' 5 1/2. I guess that happems when you hit 40- yucky!!! Holly

Funny how we can all carry weight so differently and yet be the same height. I'm 5'6" and about 142-145 on any given day. I could never pull off being as light as 127 or anything even close...*maybe* 137 if I didn't mind feeling super bony. I swear I have bones made of lead or something...I've always been 15-20 pounds heavier than someone else that is the same size as me. Though, I have to be honest...it would be fun to see those little numbers on the scale just once .

I know what you mean- I went to your sight and to some others and I don't look anything like you guys do- I shudder to think what my bones must look like. I'm getting a bone scan on Weds so I'll let you know!!! They say muscle weighs more than fat- so maybe I'm just carrying some serious flab around... I don't know -it's crazy- I sometimes even think I have chubby cheeks. I am so NOT bony- I think I'd have to be 115. Maybe I need to get my height checked again- maybe I've shrunk even more- uh-oh!!!

The bone scan sounds like a great idea. I have been tossing around the idea myself...just as a baseline so that I know if I am getting enough calcium over the next few years. I'm not quite 40 yet (almost 37) but it's coming and I know that as I get closer to menopause my bones are going to pay the price for this surgery eventually. As for flab...I see none on that body of yours! Perhaps it's just like we imagine it must be....smaller bone structure causing some of us to weigh less than others with larger bones (like me :o(). Definitely let us know the results...I'm really interested to know what it says.

Hey Holly! Yeyyy for you. I know when I get at the end of that 5 lb window I get a bit nervous. Right before PS I got up to 127 and I was getting nervous. I think it was just that time of the month, still I was not happy!!! How many times a week are you working out? Good for you!!

I try for 5- but this may be a 3x week. I'm feeling the tiredness- may go get my iron checked again on monday- ugh!!! Holly

Holly, that is awesome news!!! So glad to hear it! LOL had to laugh at the last part Anna

That is such good news Holly!! Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work!!
