Lol! Yeah...I do better with the cold actually. I spent last summer in Arkansas and just about died from the heat and humidity (and was singing opera wearing, at one point, three kimonos made of polyester in an open air ie not air conditioned, theater). I figure you can always put more clothes on but you can only take so many off I think the thing that is frustrating me the most is that I hear some of you gals talk about having a bad week and eating junky carbs but not gaining anything and here I am being so good and still not loosing....grrrr! I'm beginning to think that perhaps my body just really likes the 150-155 range. But I'm still going to try. After all it took three weeks to loose those first three pounds so if I loose three more in another two weeks I'll be happy I stuck with it And after all it's a lesson in watching what I eat because I'm pretty sure the days of eating what I want (kind of) and letting my malabsorption take care of it are over. *sigh* FIVE WEEKS???? Oh crap...and I was worried about how I was going to take off two. Yikes! Thank you for the answer though.
