After what feels like sitting at 191 forever, I was rewarded by the scale today with the number 188! I'm excited to be here and joining the rest of you on fighting to leave!
Hello everyone! I've been away from the site for a couple months because I've been staying in Canada over the summer. Just weighed myself this morning and I'm at 188.8! Woohoo! I was at 196 when I left home a couple months ago. Not too bad considering I've been living it up Canadian style (aka beer every weekend, usually with pizza!!) but time to get back on a serious plan.
Good luck to everyone today! Hope you all have a great day!
It must have been the 8 hours of dividing 10 iris plants and planting over 100 rhizomes over this past weekend. My legs are screaming today after squatting for hours. But it is a good pain.
Just returned from a week with family in Atlanta. It was really a struggle there - really hot so I couldn't run like I'm used to (although I did twice) and tried to get in other exercise like walking and swimming in my Aunt's HUGE pool - did 60 laps one night.
Also, like most family get togethers, it was all about food. The second I woke up, my mother, aunt, and grandmother were on me about eating breakfast and we would barely finish that meal before people were talking about what we were doing for lunch and dinner! Plus, they put snacks out all day. Plus any good foods, like veggies, were made into casseroles, with cheese and cream sauces.
I managed to resist the bad snacks, like chips and dip, but did find myself snacking which I don't usually do, but it was on fresh fruit like grapes, cherries and peaches. I was absolutely thrilled to return and find that not only hadn't I gained, but I was down 2 - to 186!
Good job, CherryPie99! I went on vacation for a week and was mostly on plan with a few cheat meals and have finally caught back up to 189. It seems like I've got a little plateau going, time to shake things up!
Unfortunately, I'm still here! Seems like the 180's believe that I am their best friend. I am slowly edging closer to getting rid of them - 181.0 this morning!
good luck girls!!!!! Xoxo
