Hello and for all!
Monte and Zonie - You make me want to go to alltheplaces!!
If random memories ever pop in your head of your travels and you feel like sharing, please do, right here.
My appetite for travel talk is truly insatiable and I will savor every word morsel.
Monte - That's one of the best NSVs I've ever heard.
Zonie - I'm glad your new plan is going well!
Magistra - Disneyland with your daughters sounds like such a great experience.
That's great that you were able to feel the benefit of your walking.
Teri - No pressure ever for individual responses.
Everyone's presence is what contributes to making this an area that keeps us all on track. I know it helps me reading people's updates about their day and plans. Thank you for contributing yours! I have my fingers crossed that your food mover will eventually turn up!
I'm not sure if you saw, but there's another Richard fan here,
sots mom. You can pretend to be innocent like she did, but I know the two of your plotting a Richard Simmons takeover.
Your story of the psych nurse's assumption is a good reminder of how we often have just a small piece of the info so should be slow in making judgments! I guess that nurse forgot that.
sots mom - Glad you found relief!
Sundove - No, can't say I ever thought of myself as an "exotic princess"
but I do love your beautiful way with words!
For my results, I used Ancestry.com. Until your post, I didn't realize there were multiple companies on the market doing this.
"I think once your body gets on a roll with burning fat, the cellular machinery is in place. So maybe the body directs extra energy over to that same machinery and makes it work even more, making more fat-burning enzymes, etc" Ooh, that makes a lot of sense to me! I like that way of conceptualizing it. You're probably right about their being a gene for being drawn to binge-restrict! I would guess it's a blend of innate personality and environmental circumstances that incline people towards certain methods.
@ your OR strip tease. Aren't you a frisky one!
Ameline - I hope you feel better soon.
Congrats on the 2 lb loss. That's really good! I agree with what Monte said about today.
nicoley - Good job on the run! I haven't been on a run for, I think, 2 years! Yikes!
How often do you plan to run?
Syck - I know what you mean. It can be hard trusting the process and adding food back in. I hope it goes well for you and get the 150s reward you deserve.
Gail - Hey!
Thanks for checking in! Too late, your comments already had me wishing I was there.
Enjoy the beautiful serenity!
"But happy that I know I can't wait to start eating better soon. I think that's quite a mental change, and isn't that the greater challenge when losing weight?" Indeed.
Eek at the wet hotels. What's up with that?
Glad you found someplace where the liquid is confined to the lake.
Nicholsfamily - Congrats on maintaining! It must be exciting now that the beach trip is so close.
Diana - I want to thank you for that daily weigh-in thread you create. It's really helped me get a clear look at my progress and patterns over time. You'll be stuck with me in future months too!
