Pretty close Lori, I am in Burlington.

So my weekend was touch and go which I am super angry at myself for. I was doing great until Saturday night and Sunday rolled around. Saturday we had a few people over and I had a couple of beers, but Sunday was a killer We are a big football family and we had the same people over watching the games, which included pizza and wings. I had 3 slices of pizza and 3 wings That is alot for me considering even prior to dieting 2 slices was my limit. Needless to say I am spending all week making up for that because I have promised myself at least a 1lb weight loss. I did not eat much for the rest of the day since even at bedtime the pizza had still not digested and I ate it at 2:30.......I guess my system was in a bit of a shock.

Well here is to a good start to the week!

How is everybody doing? Did I miss our losses for last week?

Good Tuesday Morning Purple!! I'm so glad the weekend is over LOL!! I had a great day yesterday with very little effort. Why is it just so easy during the week. At least the week is longer so i can have 5 good days and 2 not so good and not the other way around LOL!!

Andrea...no negative self talk about the weekend! Just pick up, dust off and keep on moving! You can do it!

I think we did lose some of our team. Where are you purple team!!?

Well I've got an exam to study for! Have a fantastic tuesday!!

Good Wednesday Purple team!! Yesterday was my 14th anniversary and we went out to dinner. I didnt to too bad. Skipped the cocktails which is a huge victory for me. but probably had too many bites. Plus I had the bread w/ butter. AF is circling the building which leads me to believe there may be no scale moving this week but I'll deal! LOL!

I hope everyone is having a fantastic week! Be strong for you and for your team!! We can do this!!!

Hello ladies and I am soooo sorry I was missing in action. My computer seems to have a mind of its own lately and I had to take it in to get fixed. Thank goodness I did not lose any of my pictures, but it has taught me I need to get them on disk before it's too late. Then for the last week the family has been so sick. One at a time we have all got some sort of flu bug which seems to be tailing off now with only a horrible cough left. My daughter is actually home from school because she has a slight fever this morning.

Well as for the weight loss, I am really disappointed in myself. Halloween really showed me how little self control I really have. I sat down last night and really thought to myself "What the **** are you doing to yourself?". It seems so easy to say to yourself "no don't eat it, it's soooo bad for you" but then I pick it up and shove it in my mouth

I just wanted to check in and let you know I have not given up and I am in this for the long haul. Mind you, I have to be realistic with myself so I changed my goal weight for now. Long term I do want to be 155lbs, but for my February 9th weight I would like to be 170lbs. We leave for our vacation on the 10th, and as much as i would LOVE to be 160lbs for that I need to set realistic goals so I don't set myself up for failure. Slow and steady stays away right? Hey and if I am below 170lbs, I would be estatic!!!!!!!
