Sunday Nov. 8th

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.

I feel I need to repeat this: I am a FIRM believer in Good Whey Protein Drinks!!!!! I have IC (Irritable Bladder Syndrome) and I can only have them while I'm not having a flare up. It is sooooo much harder to do Maintenance without them!

After looking forward to having a week of "doing what I want to do" and I am super excited DH is coming home!!  I am totally worn out keeping up to DD's and Grandkids...LOL.

Maintenance 7+ years

Breakfast:  1 piece of breakfast sausage and 1/2 of an Amish Donut which probably adds up to a whole regular donut....  Practically fresh out of the hot grease.

I had such an urge for an English Muffin last week.  I should have just stopped at McDonalds and got one because I know I ate something else that was far worse..(donut).

Sounds Good!
