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!!!!! It is sooooo much harder to do Maintenance without them!
Morning LW's!!!! I really appreciate Gina taking over while I've been busy!!! Thank You Over and Over Again!!! WOW...have we been busy!!!!! Until indoor baseball finishes up in mid March. We've finished as much as we can for right now at our DD's new All-star Cheerleading Gym. She has over 200 families signed up in our Portal for when this season ends and 129 taking tumbling classes now. My girls are VERY Excited!!
I have to be honest....I have been eating on the run and sampling sweets that have been showing up at the gym. My scales are still in my good range but I need to get a handle on it before it explodes!!!

Hi Guys,
I have to admit I let go a little more on weekends than I do during the workweek. I should be finding better snacks to graze on. Yes, I'm a grazer. I tend to get more calories from snacks than meals. That's why my surgeon was ok with a lightweight getting the most aggressive weight loss surgery of the bunch. He likes to match the patient's eating demons with the surgery that may give them the best chance of success in the long run.
