Topic: RE: I didn't do so good!!!
You are not alone Jesi!! Throughout the day yesterday I had 5 fun-size crunch bars, 3 mini halloween chocolate cupcakes and 5 fun-size whopper packs. I also had a protein shake if that counts!! Every waking hour I put something sweet in my mouth!! It was awful but considering what I ate last Halloween this was nothing and I don't feel too bad because it's not like I do this everyday nor will it kick start something in my body to start doing this everyday - it was halloween. I think the key is not to let this be a trend and I will definitely not. Today is a NEW day and I committed myself to a 2-day liquid diet (protein shakes only) today and tomorrow to cleanse my body of these chocolate sugary carbs I fed it yesterday.
Take care, and have a great day.

Jesi, Hi there sweetie, You are human, so don't be so hard on yourself. You had a great day and that is what is important. You had a great time with your family. Today is a new day. I think if we don't feed into our cravings once in a while, we will go completly out of control when we do.
I did not feel bad at all about having a bit of lemon meringue pie. I wanted it so I had it. That is it. I don't eat like that at home so no big deal.
Have a great day......

Hi guys, How was your Halloween, Mine was good. I went Trick or Treating with my neices and the kids. Yes....I put on a costume. I had on overalls , strawhat, corn cob pipe and knocked on the doors with them. I had so much candy. It was like I was reliving my childhood. My neighbors were laughing when they saw me. I even got extra candy. 
Now the hard part. I did not eat any. I had pretzels when I came across those kiddies bags. It was not easy. I was so tempted. That night we had an anniversary party for my sister. I had a piece of lemon meringue pie. I am HUMAN so I had it. Otherwise I was good. Now to go on to the next holiday. This is very hard, but I figured I had come so far. How can go wrong. 
I hope you all enjoyed Halloween
Have a great day......Lorraine

I purposely bought candy I didn't care for so I wouldn't be tempted....but wouldn't you know the girls brought home loads and loads of candy that I adore!!! Plus we have an awesome neighbor who made the girls cute little baskets filled with candy, and she brought those over on Saturday, again filled with my faves.....I do not dump on small amounts of sugar, so I found myself having little candy bars all day long 
We had a bonfire with pizza...the women sat around the fire passing out candy and we made the men take the kids around the neighborhood, I had a great time...but it is hard to enjoy yourself when feeling so guilty! I am promising to do better today~NO CANDY!!! It is a yucky gloomy rainy day, so after my coffee I am having a warm protein drink! Protien train for sure the next couple days! Take Care and have a great day everyone Jesi

Hi sweet Nona. Thanks so much for your kind words. I do have batwings and a hanging tummy and a lot of extra skin on my outer thighs and above my knees - it's just not that bad and it's hard to see on the camera. I guess I thought the skin was worse than it actually is. Exercise has helped with the skin tremendously. What exercise does is build the muscle underneath which takes up some of the extra skin (this is how my surgeon described it) - especially on the arms and legs and abs. Exercise can not get rid of the extra skin entirely but it can certainly help and I guess it did in my case. I still have another 6 weeks of exercise and weight loss before I start my plastic surgery consultations so it will be interesting to see what they say. Maybe the less skin will make the plastic surgery procedures less expensive?? That would be nice, huh? We'll see.
How are you feeling?

Thanks so much Lorraine!! Hard work is an understatement but it's all worth it and something we all must get used to when we enter "maintenance phase" (not me, yet...).
Was it not the most beautiful Sunday yesterday? I think it hit 75 in the City; absolutely gorgeous.
Have a great day.

WOW. How did you manage not to have batwings or a hanging tummy. You look fantastic.
