I'm sorry for your loss.


I'm back in town and I'm not leaving again until the holidays, so maybe I can keep up now.

Hi old friends!

I'm still weighing in (though not proud--been plateauing for 6 weeks now... seriously, same weight, every week, maybe up a hair but never below 151 lbs) but haven't been to talkative. I want to get back into the boards and maybe that will help my weight loss. I hope at least!

Anyways, I just got back from a 10-day trip to Japan. I was so convinced I would break my plateau since I would be walking a lot and I'm not a huge Japanese food fan. WELL, I ate worse than I thought but I still walked a ton... and came home to weigh the exact same thing as I did when I left!

UGH!

The trip was good but I'm back and feeling stressed. I move away from Korea in 10 days, go home to the US for a month and then I move to Australia for 8 months. My work schedule is light so I'm trying to work out a lot but I also have to pack up my life (been here a year) and clean out my apartment and say good-bye to friends.

We only have a couple more weigh-ins and I'm a little disappointed I didn't lose more. I've lost 22 lbs since coming to Korea a year ago and I'd love to shave off 3 more lbs before I get home to make it 25 lbs gone in a year... but I haven't lost a new lb since the first week of July so...??? I'll keep working out and eating well and see what my body decides.

Hi everyone!
I've been rather busy lately, but it looks that way all around.

joyra- good to hear from you again! Hope your move goes smoothly!

joci- my mother is in desperate need of a double knee replacement, but basically refuses. She thinks they'll be worse afterwards...so I'll be curious to how your mom progresses. Sounds like you are very busy with this and sending the kids off to school! good luck!

Dee- glad you're back! Holidays.....It'll be Halloween before you know it! I can't believe how fast 2009 has been. I had my teeth cleaned on thursday and saw the appt card with Feb. 2010 on it and just shook my head...

We went for a hike at the park this morning. My son had to count frogs for school and we counted 16.

I hope everyone is having a great weekend!

everyone!

Was just looking at the weigh-in results...for me to come in as a runner up for losing just .8, that's just sad, lol. This is turning into an Agatha Christie mystery...and then there were nine (of us)..... Oh, well, now TOM's here so this may be a freebie for me this week.

I wanted to do better in this challenge, too, and I was doing better with the exercising at first but then I got sidelined with getting sick for the summer. But...I'm up for the next challenge and I've been learning some stuff, too, that will hopefully help me improve my workouts. But I said at the start of the challenge that, at the very least, I wanted to weigh less when I finished than when I started and I will have managed that!

Everyone must be very busy, but just wanted to say Hi, and hope all is well. Having some trouble staying OP, but my exercise is great. I just think I'm kinda burnt out, tired of trying to be good!! I think maybe I need some new recipes to motivate me again, or a swift kick in the butt

Hope everyone has a great Sunday, and a wonderful week

I know what you mean Ellie, I didn't make my goal of 20 lbs for this challenge, but did lose so that's a good thing.
Hope you are feeling better from being sick for the summer!

Institches- If you find any good new motivation, let me know! I'm trying to rekindle the motivaton myself. Maybe the new season of the biggest loser starting soon will help.

I'm excited for the next challenge already and hope to see a lot of you!

Have a great week everyone! See you tomorrow for the weigh in!
