Daily Maintenance weigh in- Wednesday Aug 14, 2013

I'll start today since I need to report a weight gain. I am 124.7 this morning. Enjoyed my mother's cooking way too much. Started Friday and went through yesterday. The madness will stop right now.

Good Morning!  I'm up a pound...141.8#!  I had way too much fun at the Left Handers Party. lol  Our newspaper even printed a left handed version.  We read a litany, gave thanks for left-handed people (my husband being one), and discussed living in a right handed world.  It was simply a way to have fun on a Tuesday night.  

I'm going to the gym today to get in some cardio and have a session with my trainer.  Then to the coffee shop to wait until my house is finished being cleaned.  Not much else on the agenda today.

mimij-I'm sure the weight will come off quickly.  No worries:)

Enjoy the day!

150.6

I think this is some water weight from eating out last night.

You all have a wonderful day!

101.2 lbs today.

Have a good one, all!

124.8 today.  I seem to be retaining fluids again, so will have to be more vigilent with water for the next few days.  

My husband is away and will be for an entire month, so I'm anticipating some 'head hunger' related to a tinge of loneliness/boredom.  But I know what that sounds like and I will not be listening!

You are rock solid Sis! Great plan. I wish I could tune out the head hunger as successfully as you. PM  me on MFP and give me some tips please. Love ya

121. hmmm, seeing a slight upward trend. not alarmed yet. gotta get moving.   diane

OK, after my five day vacation, I am at 110.2 this morning.  I need all the accountability I can get so I thought I would post here too.  This will not stand, I am motivated to get back to 105 lbs. within a month.  I have a plan....

I forgot to weigh myself today. Not that I care that much. I've been holding steady in the 119-121 range and that's cool.

Anyway, just wanted to say my liver enzymes are elevated, probably from the Topamax. I'm supposed to not take any Tylenol and retest in a month.

And I'm trying out to be in The Wizard of Oz: The Musical. I want to be a Flying Monkey. Because, hello? Flying! And also ... monkeys!

But I have to sing for it and I'm  not very good at it. I'm going to do an excerpt from Macklemore's Thrift Shop for my first song. I can sing it without forgetting the words and in tune. And it's fun and I have fun doing it. I have these pantomimes I do and I dance around a bit. Not choreographed, just moving. My daughter and voice teacher are somewhat appalled but it works.

For my second song, I'm going more traditional with something from Shrek the Musical. Fiona is an alto like me. So I'm doing a snippet from I Know it's Today. I'm dong Teen Fiona's part because Adult Fiona's is too high. Plus there's a part in the middle I can sing-talk if need be. I am only allowed to do 16-32 bars, which is just as well. I go off tune A LOT with that one. Hence, the voice teacher.

Anyway, my point of all this is... I used to have a motto: do one thing every day that scares you. I haven't been doing that lately. This scares me. So it's good. 

Very cool! And, it helps that the flying monkeys are total BAD ASSES!!! I would want to be a lollipop kid, but I'm height challenged, so it would work for me. And it wouldn't suck licking on a lollipop through an entire scene.

You are doing some very cool stuff.
