Monday Roll Call
Welcome to the new work week! I woke with a sinus cold so I'm a bit grumpy. On top of that, the scale says I'm five pounds up. I'm not sure how that can be when I'm not eating very much. But I figure I'm building some muscle and probably holding some water too. I'll give it a few days and see what happens. I'm enjoying the splash of color that our tie dyed curtains now add to the house. We had a blast at Dawn's on Saturday! I hope everybody enjoys this brisk day! Paul
I think our bodies know winter is coming and try to hibernate. I feel like an old bear this morning but I am not mentally in old bear status. My old days of working out of doors still kicks in gear when rain is coming and tries to catch up on rest.
Your body will punish you with weight gain when you begin or increase a workout program. If trying to lose weight you really need to be mentally prepared for it. Most people will also eat more after new exercise programs so if you log your foods it can be of help to know you are doing the right things. It is water though and will give up soon if you stay on course.

Hello everyone 
I'm at work after a long weekend (I worked all weekend). I feel like I live here. I can't wait till I'm back at home. Nothing much going on here. I'm still eating healthy. I haven't started an exercise program yet. I'm just too tired. I can't wait till I have the surgery and start dropping some of this weight.
Paul- I'm sure you are right and its jus****er weight or if your working out muscle weight.
Have a nice day everyone.

Gooood Morning IL family!
Yes I am in a good mood this morning, even though it's too early, lol.
I hit ONEderland this weekend. I am officially down 82 lbs!! I actually increased my eating a little bit and added more protien and that helped the scale move.
I have to run to the bank today and stop and see friend who got a tattoo on Friday! crazy lady! Tonight I have to pick up Tyler from football and Jacob from Drama and that's it!
Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Success begins with wise choices I make,I will not let noncompliance be my mistake, The surgery I had was to assist me in changes. My compliance is for a success long range, So I will think before I decide to cheat. Remember the goals I want to meet. For this surgery is not something I was force to do It was what I wanted for a healthy life!
