Topic: HOLD MY FEET TO THE FIRE! ACCOUNTABILITY TIME
ACCOUNTABILITY MISSION: NO MERCY AND NO EXCUSES 

TELL THE WHOLE TRUTH AND BE ACCOUNTABLE: 

WIN!  You are a loser over the past week

LOOSE! You are a gainer over the past week

DRAW! No loss no gain over the past week.  Is it a frustrating slow down in your wl? Or, perhaps its an infuriating stall?  Or, is this mainting and holding steady, no problem? 


Make this week a good one.  Think about what went well and what was not so nice recently.  Consider what works for you and what is counter productive.  Make a plan.  Work your program.   


    ...All are welcome, jump in at anytime.

Missn' U 2!   I'll be glad when I can get my daily BAF fix again. 

Calories are not a big issue for most newbies.  It seems regardless of procedure wls folks can't hold enoug food to kill the calorie count.  Keep working the protin and water and congrats on the workouts.

Topic: ANOTHER NSV

I was washing my hands for the last couple of days and notice my rings wants to slip off. I thought it was the soap but come to find out my ring is getting to big for me. I can literally side it off with no problem. Its time for a re size or maybe even better a upgrade LOL

The thing that was a trip to me was, I bought good bras, even after my breast reduction. I always hung up my bras to dry, rather than dry them in the dryer. So they lasted longer. I had a lot of bras. So they lasted a long time. When I gave clothes to these two sisters and I mentioned to them about the  bras. Because I was just gonna anominously give them to Goodwill. A friend of mine said dont throw them away. Well the two Sisters asked to see the bras. They were literally fighting over these bras. WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT!!!  But it was hard parting with my clothes.               Now!!!   It is almost a party parting with them................... once I get over the money part.  I just shop at Ross and Walmart. So it kinda make parting a little easier. LOL!

 IN IT TO WIN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
