Good for you - it's part of taking control of your life. Bioidentical hormones are the ones that are most like what your body makes and do not have the high incidence of causing cancer like the ones made out of pregnant mare urine! Diona

I am doing ok. I decided to bring in some fresh fruit and wasabi peas to snack on while at work. I am at a stand still this month only three pounds. I have skippped the gym a few times too often. 2) my goal for the up coming week is to make it to the gym on my lunch hours, get a good deal of protein in and try my best not to graze on those awfull carbs! I know thats alot of small goals but I have high expectations and I am running out of "Window" time. 4) I think that a weekly check in is wonderfull encouragment! I hope everyone is doing well! keri

Doesn't it feel good... Can't help you with the pictures. I am the worst one. I finally got some in the computer then they said they were to big. I decided to leave it alone before I mess up the one you can see.

Hey there December Friends~ Just poppin' in for accountability and support! Here is what I am thinking will work. 1) How are you doing? Just give a general check in. 2) What are your goals for this week? 3) Did you acheive them? 4) How can we encourage you? 1) How are you doing? I have been doing somewhat better, but if it's not one thing it's another. This week I was on vacation, so I didn't work out. But, I did eat better. Good gravy, you'd think I could get it together!! But, that is why I am checking in with you all. I WANT to succeed. And I know you all do to. I realize surgery fixes our bodies, not our heads! And, so, I am the kind of person that needs to talk to others when I am getting out of line. 2) What are your goals for this week? PROTEIN!! I am going to consiously try to get protein in like never before. I am going to be a protein princess. Also, I am going to curb the snacking! 3) Did you acheive them? You'll find out next week! 4) How can we encourage you? I think this check-in will be a great encouragement. Also, if I am doing poorly, I need a good kick in the pants...but please be gentle and loving about it! NO, don't be easy on me, but just be caring!! Now it's your turn. How are you doing?

Congrats on your weight loss! That is awesome! I have to look at my before picture right next to a current picture to really appreciate the difference. When I look in the mirror, I know I'm smaller. But to fully appreciate the change, I have to look at the pics side by side. To add a picture, you go the main messageboard. On the left hand side, choose User Settings and it will take you to where you need to be. I had to have my husband crop the picture, so I can't help you with that part. I can only point you in the right direction! Good luck. Sherry 259/168.5/130
