Kukkie - We just stayed pretty close to home, there were a couple of celebrations nearby, so we checked one out. It was 42 degrees out, and sooo humid! Your day sounds better
MissKelly - I will trade you! Well, partly, it's really hot and humid here, no rain, except maybe at 2-3 am.
rox - congrats on quitting smoking! Very hard thing to do!
I missed SO much today! 1 workday down, 6 to go! Didn't weigh today, tomorrow I think. Scared to get on the scale, I had Subway yesterday, NOT on my plan! I think I am melting - I wonder if its possible to gain from very humid HOT weather?
The scales stayed the same for me today. I wish they'd move a little so I can get under 250 and into the next decade.
Yes, I did sleep in! But, I went to bed at 2:30 and got up at 9:30, so not a ton of extra sleep. Going shopping with my SIL for some capris for my upcoming trip to Florida. I'm not looking forward to clothes shopping at all. I've not lost nearly enough to get into smaller sizes yet.
ubercast - I have been taken to the emergency room with pain so bad they gave me morphine and such before during TOM. I will add some good news to my warning. My pain has lessened. I'm not even sure when the last time I went to the ER was and it used to be about 1 out of 3 TOMs. So, maybe you can hope for a reduction in pain as well.
GirlyGirl - Where in Florida are you off to? I'm headed to Panama City on the 13th.
Well, today I am up 1.2 to 167.6. I am soooo tired of this. Other than a couple days outside the range I have been 167-170 since May 28. I was off plan for 2 nights (not in a row) and they didn't even seem to make a difference. Other than those nights I have been POP and have been exercising and getting my water. I don't get it. I am seriously getting close to throwing some sort of tantrum. I am so frustrated and I have no idea how to fix this. I know that I am creating calorie deficits because my body bugg says so, so why am I not losing?
213.4 - up .6 since yesterday. I've been having a very up and down, up and down sort of week - but the ups and the downs are lower each time, so I don't care .
Swimgirl, just a suggestion...I like to weigh EVERY day regardless of what I ate so that I can see exactly what it does to my weight. Sometimes I can eat pizza and LOSE! It's very eye opening and has been part of what has brought peace between me and the scale. Over time I've come to realize weight loss is more about patience than what I actually do. As long as I'm on plan every day, I know the scale will eventually follow.
I reached some major milestones today, as reported in another post. I have now lost 60 pounds AND am overweight!!
I am down .8 today! YAY! Down .6 yesterday, .8 today, hmmm maybe 1 pound tomorrow? lol I don't think so but I'll take whatever I can get.
Roxy - Sorry about the stall!! How frustrating. Do you count calories? I have heard people say that they actually had to up their calorie intake to ge the weight to drop further. I haven't been there yet but I've read it on here more than once.
I can relate to people's comments about losing weight and getting pregnant, and also regulating TOM...I was very irregular when I weighed 260+ but losing weight really helped with that. I lost 60lbs, got pregnant with my son. I lost 30lbs, got pregnant with my daughter...and here I am again. Not planning on anymore any time soon...I really want to get to goal this time and enjoy myself before entertaining the thought of more kiddos.
Scales stayed the same today, but I stayed on plan yesterday- even though it was our anniversary dinner. It is a rainy cool day here in Juneau, a perfect day to catch up on some of the indoor projects I have been putting off.
It's contagious....I'm right there stuck with most of you....still at 238.6.
Starting today...pulling out my guns again & doing what I do to get it moving ...severe restriction of my sodium & carbs (25 this time from my norm of 50). My feathers are really ruffled. All of these day in & day out storms we've been having the past week hasn't allowed me to keep up with my nightly laps....except that one night during the week I went in when it was lightly raining & it got harder and I had to get out cus' it hurt my eyeballs. If its not lightning tonight (storms moving in off the Gulf again now as I type...getting darker & windier GRRRRR)...I'm going in tonight anyway....I'll put goggles on this time to protect my peepers.
Fitgirly: Have a great time when you come down here!! I'm hoping your coming will chase all these tiresome storms away!!
Aimee: Deal!!
And the Florida Gods said...LET IT POUND RAIN! ...LOL...It's baaackkk.
