Hey there! Just wanted to say hey and wondering how you are doing? I am stuck. BUT its my fault. I have been planning to straighten up how long now??? AND YET I put it off. 'sigh' I am still stuck at 225. 'sigh' I am just not loosing even a pinch. I am PLANNING to be very careful this weekend and pick up some chicken and cheese to make some chicken and cheese cubes to keep on hand at all times! keep that little pouchie full! Well just wanted to say hey and see how thing are going My new pic is comming soon! And better before pictures. I am hiding it all in the pic I have now! Elizabeth M

Always on the same wavelength, aren't we? I hit 226 the day before yesterday but haven't been able to weigh to see if I hit 225. I doubt it since we ate poorly yesterday. It's been a stressful week to say the least. I've also been doing more cheese and protein which I think has helped. I couldn't give up the apples though! Can't wait to see those new pics!!!! Dina

You know I say 225 but I bet its like 227 or 228 I always loose then gain like 2 then loose 5 something like that! I know I have been stressed too lately! Darn Holidays comming up I'm broke just moved into a house finally getting out of my apartment lease and getting that final payment in! STTRESSSSS! sheesh. So I am going to try hard this weekend to get on track! I have to, I really want to loose a significant amount by Christmas. My brother and family is comming up and last time they saw me I was about 270? 265? Something like that so it would be really nice to drop 20 pounds by then! HEH YEAH! GOOD LUCK ME!!! (sarcastic tone there) I'll give it a try though Taking those pics yesterday kinda gave me some inspiration. I didnt realize how much thinner my face looked in pictures. I look at myself every day in the mirror but just dont "SEE" it until I saw those pics yesterday and my husband pulled up some older face shots and I was like cool!!! It made me want to see more changes! My next goal is 173! I pick weight goals according to times in my life that I really remember (wow I weigh this much) I thought I was sooo fat at 173!!! good grief. How does that saying go... "If only I weighed what I did when I thought I was fat" heh Aint it the truth! MAN I haven't weighed 173 since... 1990!!!! HOLY CR@P! High school days! eeeep! Elizabeth M

I just wish I had been in high school in 1990... Joy

Damn! I wish I could lose 20 lbs by Christmas too! LOL! Heck, let's make it 27 and get me to 199. That would be quite the hoot!!! I just was going through some old photos the other night and looked at pictures of myself when I was in high school and thought I was huge. I looked pretty darned good! Amazing how we are so critical of ourselves even when we look good, huh? Oh - and I was a child of the 80's. You should see the headband picture! Woohooo - Olivia Newton John had nothing on me! "let's get PHYSICAL PHYSICAL....I wanna get physical. Let's get into Physical..." I'm going to start scanning all those old pictures into my computer soon, and when I do, I'll put some of them up so you can all see. What a hoot! Dina

Oh yeah - and I almost forgot! If you need someone to upload those photos, email them to me and I'll put them on my server until you can get the photo team to update them. I'm not eager or anything! Dina
