Default **Thanks** For the Kick in the Pants Last Week

To all of you who "listened" to my whining last week and who gave advise, thoughts and great insight, I just wanted to thank you again for a much needed kick in the pants.

I'm still working on my attitude adjustment, but my stubborn self still took much of what was said to heart and I've actually lost 2 KG this week, or 4.4 lbs. This is by far the biggest loss since my half-arsed several restarts.

I will be continuing down this path and I know you all will see much less of me in the future!

That's a HUGE amount of weight lost. Congrats!

I actually enjoyed your posts last week. Gave me some perspective on how many great low-cal products and fresh stuff we have available in the US. I also can't even imagine how I'd stick to the kind of exercise routine you do while also coping with that huge commute.

Atta girl!!!!

I am SOOO thrilled to hear of this. And might I just add - you stayed on plan and I gotta say you don't sound even a little bit *miserable*. You sound just the opposite in fact. See, all that *food* just can't compare to the feeling of staying on plan and losing excess pounds.

You keep going. Just keep at it. There will be way less miserable days ahead and many more happy ones.
