  • Okay...I'm back with ya Rabbit. I'm very frustrated with myself. I didn't get any exercise over the weekend and I had promised myself I would. I also ate a lot -- too embarrassed to list. Some days the scale reads 159 and then others it's back up to 161. This week I'm going all out and really forcing myself to eat lite. I'm considering going on a diet mountain dew diet and taking up smoking!!!! Okay...not really. Instead I'm just going to concentrate on shrinking my stomach this week.
