Sandisuze~lol you totally busted me with your "Melra type post" line! I've become an adjective! "don't go all melra on me.."
Now, Drop The Treats, Lady! Don't derail yourself with any more bad eating. Refocus on your goals and throw in some extra exercise to get rid of those extra calories.
Congrats on the loss Cadwell!!! So glad you're seeing some progress!
I am back in plateau mode now--no change for like a month. I don't think I'm working hard enough though. I need to get more cardio minutes in, I think, and I definitely need to watch my calories more. I have seriously slacked on a food journal and the whole "winging it" thing just doesn't work, I guess.
I had hoped to be down to 155 by next weekend b/c I have to be in a hot tub around other people, but obviously that's not going to happen. I'm going to work on getting as much cardio as possible in the next week though.
I know that I'm getting fitter, I wish I were thinner! I've been doing cardio 4-5 times a week for over 2 months now and it has made a big difference. I ran for a bit last night on the treadmill and when I took my heartrate I realized I had to push myself a bit to get my hr up! My resting hr is lower than it has been (72) and I don't huff and puff as much. Also, I did 15 pushups in a row--2 months ago I could only do 3. I've been trying to work my legs and butt as much as I can b/c those are the areas I'm most self-conscious about. How I wish spot reducing were true!

I just wanted to remind you all that technically middle ground for us is, um...where I am! and there are no cruises around here. Unless you guys want to cruise around the countryside on a hayride. The food, however, would be just as dangerous b/c hello, kansas city bbq is A*Maz*Ing. True fact.
