Daily Maintenance Weigh In- Wednesday, June 11, 2014

143.0  - right in the sweet spot -  Niece is visiting "the farm" this week, and wants to spend lots of time in the kitchen learning how to make "all the stuff grandma used to make when she was little"...Hoo-Ha!  Cooking and baking up the wazoo for the next 3 days.  I love LOVE to do it, but this is the same **** I am emotionally, historically, and habitually attached to.  For the life of me, there isn't one sleeve friendly recipe in my mother's recipe book (not surprising_ha)-- Feeling like a thrill seeking - self proclaimed- reformed and clean- junkie who has been asked to collect and hold  "the dope" overnight.   Let the games begin!   

Wowza - don't think I could handle that, Bonnie!  Sending you lots of positive energy that you'll be in the right frame of mind for all this and that nothing will trigger you.  Focus on all the good memories and the new memories you're making with your niece.  

132.2.....new territory my friends.  Getting awfully close to breaking into the 120's, which is where my doctor would like to see me settle.  It might take another 6 months but I'll get there!  

144#

Bonnie-bless your heart!  I'm not sure I could do it!!!  You're my hero!

We're doing some traveling soon with friends and then to visit my parents.  I'm hoping I can stay on point most of the time with my food choices and exercise.  I'd like to be the one that reports I lost weight on vacation!!!  lol I hate that this still controls me (insert pity party here) but in a different way.  Blessed and thankful and in a much better place.  

Have a great day! 

102 lbs today.  Have a good one, all!

When I got the flu and lost 2-3 pounds, I thought I'd gain it all back in 2 days but I haven't. And my collarbones are bone-y again. Mixed feelings about that.

I had fun during one period of my life experimenting with making baking recipes healthier without compromising on taste. It can be an interesting intellectual exercise.

112.2. Bonnie, you're awesome!!
