Monday Weigh-In
Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a great weekend. I didn't do a whole lot. On Saturday, I watched a lot of TV on Netflix and went to Goodwill to feed my growing shopping addiction lol. Yesterday, I got my hair cut and colored and did some cleaning. Fun stuff!
For the weigh in!
LW - 254.2
TW - 252.2
-2.0 lbs.... and these 2 lbs came in the last 2 days... I had an 8 day stall... but hopefully it's been broken now?! We'll see!
Have a good one!

Good job, Nikke! The closer I've gotten to goal, the more mini stalls I seem to have. I had to stop weighing everyday so that I didn't drive myself insane! I've also been shopping WAY too much. Sometimes, if I don't have anything better to do, I will just go into a store and try a ton of stuff on knowing I won't buy anything. It just feels great to pull on an 18 or a 16 that fit... this time last year, 28s were tight!! Go and try on and leave your credit card home. :-)
LW: 235 (I think that was 2 weeks ago when I last posted)
TW: 232
My weight loss has slowed down some. Part of it is due to me eating more carbs but even when I am really strict and on plan, it seems like I'm still not losing like I did in the beginning. Oh well, I will make it even if it takes me another year! Happy Monday, all!

Hi all,
I had a wonderful, uneventful weekend, as well. I've had some break-thru's at work, and I'm finally reaping the rewards of a lot of patience and persistence. My daughter who has been "stuck" for a long time seems to be making headway taking charge of her life. I am feeling so blessed by my weight loss and new energy. What a special time of life. (I know, I need to savor it while it lasts! (smile))
Last week - 257
This week - 253
Four pounds down! -that's huge for me... and that's three weeks of weight loss in a row. I usually stall every other week!.
Happy dance!!!
best wishes,
Carol

Wow, sounds like a lot of positives today. That's always great to read. :) :)
This weekend I shopped online for some new clothes (tees, cardys and jeans) and flirted with the idea of buying a dress, which is progress for me. I found some Walmart Faded Glory jeans in-store which fit me nicely (18W!!), but they literally only had ONE PAIR in stock in that size. I bought two pairs in black online.
On Saturday afternoon the family and I went to a local pick-your-own and did the apple orchard hayride, the tickets for whi*****luded an apple cider donut and some apple cider afterward. I bagged my donut and bottle of cider for the kids to enjoy later. Not even tempted. Yay, sleeve and yay, retrained brain!! Now I have to figure out what to do with the approximately 15 lbs of apples sitting on my kitchen counter. Climbing on and off the hay wagon was a breeze. I wouldn't even have attempted that preop.
I also bought tickets for the Michael Nesmith concert coming to my area this fall. My daughter and I will go with one of my husband's cousins and her husband. So excited! This is another thing I never would have dreamed of doing preop, as I had gotten to the point where sitting in theater seats was almost impossible. Now I'm planning what I'll wear like some teenager. :)
LW = 188 TW = 185 -3
Husband and I were discussing my goal last night. I could stop where I am and go for maintenance, really, but I want to keep going. I do seem to be stalling for days between a pound or two coming off, but it's been consistently 2 or 3 coming off each week, so I guess I'm still doing something right. **IF** this keeps up I should reach goal in another month and will have to decide once and for all whether to go further if I can. Another "wow" moment for me.
Thanks for listening. :)

Only 1 lb lost, but Aunt Flo's visiting, plus I burned through a lot of glycogen on Saturday (longest bike ride yet followed by a gig where I spent a lot of time on my feet), so I'm retaining replacemen****er
It's shaping up to be a pretty horrible week, so we'll see how things go :/
This has been an odd week...working and house stuff.
My period, which started after surgery and has been coming around the 16th has decided not to come, or atleast not yet. I thought id be regular again lol NOT. Its ok tho. Im 48.
I havent been hungry this week at all, nothing really tastes good or right. Maybe its a cold coming on.
