Friday thumbs up, thumbs down

Thumbs Up: wearing my size 14 jeans (from Lane Bryant... do you think their 14s are bigger than other 14s?) shopped at New York and Co. taking more pictures with me in them able to eat anything I want, and STILL making good choices figured out that the heart-pain is from eating too much or eating too fast got my new hi-protein cookbook Thumbs Down: ate too much and ate too fast getting on the scale more than once a week still between a 1X and an XL at department stores accidentally wore a too-big tank to work and my bra was hanging out. Luckily I had a cardigan to cover up with. cleaned so much of my clothing out of the closet, hubby's clothes fit in there now too. Sharing a closet again sucks. All my bras are too big. No idea what size I am now. I dread being a B-cup. Is there such a thing as drinking too much decaf coffee at 13 weeks out? no dumping haven't gotten bloodwork done yet, and I Need to go in for my 3-month checkup no loss this week Jenn (254)239/197/145

I think I can make it!! -making smart choices -have a great 4th with lots of friends! -not dumping yet thumbs down -yeast infection from my bladder infection/antibiotics -feeling like I had a hangover from all the barium from the ct scan.

Thumbs up, Fitting into my 20's sizes!!! Not bad from like a skin tight unzipable 28 jeans! Suportive family and friends! Thank God for allowing me to put my feet on the ground this morning and walk! Thumbs down, Ex mother in laws Second wives Ex girlfriends and teenagers that know it all! All of the above equal me not being able to keep down food for two days! I can't eat when I am stress out I get so sick! Friday reminder to self- LET GO AND LET GOD! Hope everyone has an awesome weekend! My oldest son is turning 14 today and my baby turned 12 so we are having 2 birthday parties this weekend! Nothing tastes as good as as THIN feels!

I'm curious where in NL you are going as I am originally from NL too and so is my husband. Funny you meet Newfie's everywhere. Carolyn

My husband is dutch. He was born in Mordrecht. His Parents reside in Dordrecht. His sister's are in Rotterdam. We'll be in rotterdam at our house there He attended the HR&O in Rotterdam for Uni My daughter is a dual citizen I know we are planning a trip the De efteling, we have our hotel reservations and everything

Oh and by NL I meant The Netherlands Not New Foundland.. Sorry

Thumbs up: I joined a gym close to my house so I can go more often ( I was using the one attached to the Dr's office which is a 25 minute drive) At my first training session with my trainer I was able to do all the exercises he showed me and ride the recumbent bike for 35 minutes I'm decluttering all my too big clothes and blessing someone who needs them by giving them to them. Thumbs down: I fell in the bathtub today and hurt my right arm and left knee (it's not as bad as I first thought though, when I slipped and banged my arm on the tub at first I thought I broke it

Thumbs Up: I am back at work and I am now off for the night. I got a paycheck I did not know I had coming. I am wearing size 3X down from 5X Even I have to admit my clothes are to big for me now. A wonderful day yesterday with my mother-in-law and sister-in-law. Grilled shrimp! I have up my time on the eliptcal by 7 mins. I am still losing weight at a good steady rate. I really love my husband and I find joy in his smile. Thumbs down: The NP telling me I do not need a blood test for a year and that my adding protein is grazing. Not knowing how to shop for clothes right now. I work in a clothing store so it is very hard not to shop. It's clearance time. Okay, life is to good for thumbs down. I'm just making it up now.

Thumbs up: Fitting into a booth, actually fitting...not squeezing into one with my stomach hanging over the table. Size 24 jeans getting extremely big (down from a tight 28) Having a person at work, who I don't see daily...NOT recognize me immediately, then do a double take! My surgeon telling me that things were going good. My husband commenting daily about how great I'm doing...I love him!! Teenage girls (being very helpful this week at times) Thumbs down: B-1 shot Mosquitoes (making my walks NOT fun) MIL (whom I love) being very thoughtful, and bringing lunch items for the kids...things I haven't brought into my house in 3 months...cheetos, rice krispie treats, white bread. UGH. The thought was sweet, she was only trying to help, but c'mon!!! Cheetos?? I'm not that strong yet!! Teenage girls (need I say more?They're walking contradictions!!) Weight loss stalled...only temporary!

thumbs up: finally fitting into a 2x top that i bought on my vacation to florida getting a $30 gift cert from the boss for a job well done last week throwing away undergarments that are too big thumbs down: not getting to do my walks because we only get 30 min lunches each day at work instead of our normal 60....
