SLEEVIN' & ACHIEVIN' & 30 Day No Weigh Challenge, Thursday Apr28/11

Congrats on another pound Jeani, it seems, you keep chiping away at it one pound at a time!!  I am sooooooo proud of you! 

Also, Happy Surgiversary!!  Great Job Honey!! 

Enjoy the Meet Up on Saturday, I would LOVE to be there to meet everyone! 

Hugs, 

Cindy

 Happy Surgiversary girlfriend...you ARE doing an amazing job!!

congrats, Jeani!!!!

wow, I wish I could visit CA and meet y'all.

Ok Cindy...YOU ARE TRIPPING and NOW I want you to STOP beating yourself up and belittling yourself like what you have accomplished is so trivial.  It's MASSIVE.  Remember this is not about perfection it's about LIFE and LIVING it and ENJOYING it as well.  Hello 7.5 inches in ONE week...and you're discounting that because of Almonds.  While I would enjoy seeing you I wish I was in Belize so I could HIT you...how dare you say the things you are saying to the woman that is INSPIRING me to get back on track.  I won't have it...

Ok ok I got it, I will behave...  But no hitting, I don't respond well to physical pain or hurt feelings...

I so wanted 'all' of it off before I went to Canada. I get it in my head that I can do it, but I set myself up for failure, by expecting so much of myself.

If I keep doing what I am doing, I will be in a better place then if I didn't.  That is what I need to focus on...

ME inspiring YOU.  Cool...  I so want to see you get to goal once and for all my dear.

Hugs,

Cindy

The hit would have felt more like a HUG...you are doing phenomenal and you will have it ALL it's a journey not a sprint...

Hubby keeps asking me over this last hour or so what is wrong, and did he say something or do something... How am I supposed to tell him it is someone I have never met...  I feel sad, and deflated...

I am going to take one of my infamous breaks from the board...  I will still post my 3 threads, and I will put my measurements in on Sunday.

I need a break guys... bfn

Hugs,

Cindy

Mission Statement:
I will weigh weekly on Sunday
I will measure and take pictures on Sunday

Goals:
To fit BACK into my size 12s
To reduce my waist to 38 (from 42), my Hip/Butt to 45 (from 49.5) and my Thigh to 24 (from 27

Thoughts:
- Another day where I wanted that damn scale.  Partly to see if I'm doing damage with all the sunflower seeds, and peanuts and craisins I've been eating.  I didn't because at the very LEAST I will only weigh once a week.  I MIGHT pu**** off till Friday before I leave for Vegas...we'll see once Sunday gets here.
- My heart is SOOOO flippin heavy right now and I'm fighting back tears.  My dear co-worker who I hardly know know but care for dearly lost her brother in law today.  It's been a hard struggle for her family because he was in China and got REALLY sick and had been in and out a coma for about a month or so.  Every time I know someone who loses someone close to them it just brings me back to when my mother died.  I just miss her SO much and it's just NOT fair.  It's just not fair.  I know we all have to grow old and die.  I know I really wouldn't want her here and sick and suffering but I want to be selfish at the same time.
- I'm MAD at Cindy too...for trying to undermine all her SUCCESS.  
- I'm lastly nervous because tonight we are having a Karaoke March of Dimes fundraiser at a Mexican Restaurant...which = margaritas, chips and salsa.  Before all this my focus was to have 1 or the other...now I just want to well I don't want to eat...in fact I just want to curl up in a ball and cry (not feasible when you have to work for a living) so I'll figure something out and put something in my stomach now before it gets any later.

sorry your heart is heavy today,  Ms Shell.    life can be hard, hard, hard.  

make a plan for tonight and give it a try, keeping in mind what you told Cindy about perfection!

when I went out Monday I had a glass of wine and didn't binge so I know it is possible to do that but you know best what is likely to work for you right now. I know lots of people have said one drink and their whole eating plan goes out the window.

I know chips would be a huge trigger for me but maybe it's possible to have a small amount.

Thanks Jackie...no perfection...right now I'm just focusing on eating something so I won't be ravenous when I get off...
