I've been MIA most of the week. Its been pretty busy this week, getting ready to ship everything to Philly for the Buyers Market, etc..

Scale said 171 this morning. Finally a little movement in the right direction again. I'm really not sure if I can get to 169 by the VD goal but I'm going to try. I was looking back in my journal at my origional goals and I was actually suposed to maintain at 175 for the whole month of January so I am ahead of the origional gameplan. If I can get to the 169 I'll plan to maintain that thru mid-march before trying to lose more. The longer I maintain, the slower I go....the less likely I am to 'pack it back on'.

I write my plan out something like this:
(adjusted for VD goal)
Jan-VD :172 171 170 169
VD-Mar: maintain
April: 168 167 166
may maintain
June: 165 164 163
July : maintian
Aug 162 161 160
Sept: maintain
Oct: 159 158 157
Nov: maintain
Dec: 156 155 (drivers license goal - maintain)

Now if I'd just get back to exercise - none this week - I could see this happening this year!!

I'm going to wear my tighter jeans today - maybe that'll keep me away from junk food. - jul

Yeah to all the exercisers!

Nanci - yeah on the loss! If you keep it up this week, you'll probably get a super loss next week - sometimes it takes awhile. Hooray for your positive attitude!:D I gained 1/4 last night, not much.

Jul - Glad you are doing so well! I liked your plan. Interesting. Thanks for sharing it with us! I just wrote out a strategy myself today - exercise plan, eating plan, focus plan - but did not think about the pounds lost & maintain schedule - yours was great.:)

Have a super weekend - Rabbit

Good EVening!!!
Well, I have been thinking about doing the WW thing with meetings and all and today..got the thing in the mail advertising no joining fees and U can buy 10 meetings for $89.95 which may just jump start me again..Do U think that was a hint??????

Nanci--SInce I am only 5'1 and the float sides are 4'9 and the mask and the hat and the big costume, I will look lovely on top!!!:D They are soo funny cuz the masks are soo big on your face!!!!Still alot of fun and still saving that few points for the margarita!!!!!!!
Well..off to be constructive!!!!
BPB-Yeah on the 7 miles!!!!!!!!!
RR
29miles

Boy was this the longest week! I had convinced myself this morning was Sat AM. Boy was I disappointed when the DH set me straight.

Jul, I really like your plan, it seems very smart.

Rabbit, That 1/4lb will be gone before you know it. Keep with it.

RR, You are going to need to take pictures for us. I think you should give the WW meetings a go. I really like the
support that is given there.

They are predicting snow here. I will believe it when I see it. It is doesn't snow I am going to a bridal show with a friend tomorrow. She is getting married in July.

Take Care all

Ok where is everyone? It is snowing here, hard to say if it will stick or not.

We are going out for a friends bday tonight. We are going to a Greek restraunt and I am not sure how to count Greek food. I guess I will just try to guage it from what the menu says.

Well I hope everyone is having a nice weekend.
