Monday Morning Weigh-Ins
Hello, all! Getting a late start on weigh-ins today...all three kids had dental appointments...ugh.
Anyway, better late than never. So, everyone who is still out there...check in and hold yourself accountable!!!!!! That's an order! LOL
Surgery/high: 251.5
Last Monday: 144.1
Today: 144.8 (it's that time...I am bloated and cranky
)
I think I did a little better this week with my late-night snacking, but I can always aim to do better this week. It's going to be tough with the period induced cravings, though.
In other news, our weekend was fab! My oldest daughter, MacKenzie, was invited to attend the California State Middle School Girls Wrestling Tournament. She won second place in her weight pool. I could not be more proud of her.
She fought hard and even wrestled her last match (for 1st or 2nd place) with a hurt left elbow. If not for the injured arm, I truly believe she would have won 1st place. Perhaps next year. I'll see if I can overcome my computer ineptitude to post a pic later.
This is MacKenzie at her medals ceremony, after a verrryy loonnnggg day of wrestling. She was not too happy to have to take pictures without being able to fix her hair first...she likes to be all girl when not on the mat.
MacKenzie is on top during her second match of the day. She won. 
Make it a great week ladies!

Good afternoon-
Congrats on your daughter Suz!!!
I am the same weight as last week- BUT I did have 4 days of exercise. I had 3 good days of eating and 4 that were poor. I am back to logging my intake and I think that will help. I was lower during the week- but Easter candy killed me over the weekend. This week was a good learning tool for me- I don't want to continue having a few days of poor eating undo all my hard work- so this week will be better.
We also celebrated my second oldest daughter invitation to the National Honor Society. we are sp proud of her.
Brit :)

Wonderful news about your daughter, Brit! Is the Honor Society something that is available in high school? MacKenzie is currently taking two honors classes, but plans up to 5 next year...although, she is only in 7th grade this year. I haven't heard about any kind of honor society-type groups in middle school.
And, good on you for keeping your weight steady this week! I am fighting the chocolate period-induced demon
...I have already caved in today...the chocolate won. :-( I just hope I can turn this slippery slope upside-down before it gets out of hand. I could keep these extra couple of pounds and look exactly the same and wear the same size 2...but I don't mentally like the numbers I'm seeing, or the feeling of mild failure that gets stuck in my head. I feel crazy sometimes...to worry about 2 or 3 pounds extra is just silly, I think. I'm simply fearful of 2 or 3 turning into 20 or 30 extra pounds.

Hi Ladies -
I was swamped yesterday and forgot to check in..... better late than never :)
The scale has started to move back down..... thank god! -
My #'s
HW 311
SW 295
Lw 160
Cw 157 - down 3 - I'll take it..... just 7 more till my comfort zone.
Suz - Honor Society is a High School thing, students have to be nominated by their teachers and it usually is in their Junior or Senior year.
My daughter was just inducted last month to the National Honor Society and the Italian Honor Society ( she takes italian in school). It is a great achievement for the kids and it looks great for college.
Brit - Congrats to your daughter as well, it is a very proud moment as a parent.
Suz - congrats to your daughter too, wrestling is one sport that scares the crap out of me.... I don't even want my son to do it.
until next week......
Marta

Wow! A big congrats to your daughter, as well. I hope MacKenzie continues to excel academically...goodness knows her brother couldn't care any less, and he's already a junior.
As for wrestling, I never would have thought she would take to it like she did. Both she and my son started about 4 years ago...he broke his ribs and quit, she stuck with it. Really, I seldom see a kid get hurt...it is far and few between, but it breaks your heart when it does happen, even if they aren't your kid.
Once she is in high school (one more year, yikes!), she will no longer wrestle boys...it moves to all girls tourneys and duels. That is very different when you are used to how the boys wrestle. Honestly, the girls are brutal, tougher, and have a tendency to fight a little dirty at time. So anyway, we are crossing our fingers that she still loves it enough to aim for a scholarship for wrestling in college.
Finally, congrats on the scale moving in the direction you want. I am battling a small war of my own, so I know how frustrating it can be to go back into "diet" mode to move the scale down.
