Hello to all of our Lightweights!!!  If you are visiting WELCOME....PLEASE JOIN US and POST!!!!!   Besides my tool,  I count  Posting on the LW board as my #1 reason for being successful on this exciting journey!!!!     

WARNING TO SELF AND TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!!!   AVOID 'BAD' CARBS AT ALL COSTS!!!  THEY ARE ADDICTING!!  THEY WILL SLOW DOWN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS DURING THE LOSING STAGE (and you won't even notice)!!  THEY WILL MAKE THE SCALE GO UP AFTER THE HONEYMOON PERIOD IS OVER.

Success in Maintenance starts with GOOD  CHOICES  during the Honeymoon Period.

Morning LW's!!!  My scales are down to the middle of my range but my pants are tight through my butt.  I need to really watch my "bad" carbs and see if it makes a difference.  Although I love holding steady on the scale I have to watch for other signs that I might not be eating right.  My IC pain has been under control so I'm thinking it's time to start having at least one Protein drink a day. I know I'm not getting any liquids in other than the Vanilla Tea that my Dr. wants me to drink because I just hate drinking plain water and I'm not allowed to add flavorings.

I wish I could say my scales are down but they are not.  I did walk today and longed Teke so I got some exercise.  Anything is better than sitting with my butt but I also don't have the energy to do much.
