Topic: RE: I weigh myself EVERY SINGLE DAY!!
When I first started I did.. it was exciting.. then it became to ex-centric for me.. so I stopped.. and I make my daughter hide the scale from me.. LOL!!.. I finally found a scale that is 2 to 3 lbs from my Doc's, so that's pretty accurate though.. but don't do it Luanne you will drive yourself
BONK ER'S!!  I try to only weight in every other week.

Sinful girlie..
I tried it with splenda.. came in handy.. because I crave sweets this time of month.. if you know what I mean.. but I can eat it without feeling guilty.. I really have to get use to this cut.. because it's really short.. but thanks for the compliment.. You should do some bangs.. then after you do the new hair do you have to update your new pic.. okay... I want to see your new hair do Luanne!!

Bye

Topic: RE: I weigh myself EVERY SINGLE DAY!!

I don't weigh un everyday... it's tooo depressing in my case.  I weigh every Monday morning and for the last 3 weeks I have been 231lbs.  NO CHANGE in weight but the inches are coming off like crazy.  It seems impossiable that I can continue to drop inches and yet still weigh the same.   It's such a mental struggle for me.  sigh.....  still awaiting this "big drop" people talk about.

Hugs sweetie,
B

was it sinfully dreamy or what?!?    So did you try it w/stevia or some other sweetener or the honey?  Just curious.  Glad you liked it.

Lisa, I like the new do girl :-)   I colored my hair again this past weekend, but I'm still leaning towards bangs again.  Decisions decisions.

Topic: RE: Finally made the 100 lb mark today :)
went to get new shoes and orthotics made. And my feet got smaller. I went from a 9 1/2 4 E to 9D but he said that I will need a 9EE to make room for the orthrotics and  when my feet swell as well. So I went down half size in shoe and 2 widths that is a great difference. Will get my new balance shoes in couple weeks with new orthotics. I get black since white gets so dirty. Hard to keep clean.

cuz if I didn't, I might miss those couple of pounds I lost in a week. 

Do you all have the same problem?   Weigh yourself one day and you're down 3 lbs, then you weigh yourself the next and you're up one, then up one more the next day, then sort of stay put and then eventually seem to drop a whole bunch, but yet really only 2 or 3 from that magical low number? .   It's crazy this dang roller coaster 

That's why I weigh myself everyday. 

When it seems as though it's increased (I realize it's probably just fluid or whatever).  Trust me, I figure if I got down and I'm still working my tool, then regardless what the scales say, as far as I'm concerned, I haven't gained any, especially when I know it's simply not possibly calorie wise to gain 3 lbs back. 

Am I kidding myself or do you all do that too and just hope and pray the scale goes back to that beautiful, lower number you saw a few days before?  :-)    Now if I start seeing 5 or 7, then I think I might get concerned.

You?

YOU GO GIRL!!!! You have lost a whole person!!!! I can not wait until I am there. I am now 13lbs aways and of course that seems so far away. I am with you when you say that you still see the obese person. I do too. I have gotten so many compliments and I am almost embarassed to say that the compliments really do not make me excited. I want to be under 200lbs so bad. I am going to reach this goal before my 1 year anniversary unless my body says no more. At that point I should ready for my plastic surgery.

Girlfriend you're doing VERY good!!! I can not wait to see the end results. I am really pushing to be around 257 at 6 months out. That would make me 80lbs down when I see my Doctor. I want him to see me and say "WOW" you look good. I am really trying to focus on my mid section and getting down. Girl I can not wait until I see a size starting with "1". I probaly will be jumping  up and down all day!!!!

CONGRATS!!
