Patty - We've missed you too and are glad you're back to posting. Just stick with it and you'll be below 200 soon. I know it can be so frustrating but I bet you'll get there soon.
Kim - Glad you felt better yesterday and I hope you feel even better today!
Emme - How's the cold today? Hopefully, you're shaking it for good.
I can't believe next week is June!!! This year is going by too fast. I wanted to be at my first goal of 170 by 12/31/11. That means I need to average 1.8 pounds per week and I don't know if that's possible so if I'm around 180 I will be happy.
I hope everyone has a great Thursday. Tomorrow is the start of a nice long weekend. I am so looking forward to it.
Kim ~ Hope you are doing better! TOM is almost gone for me, so the worst is over with the cravings.
Patty ~ Good to see you here! You are soooo close to onderland! Keep fighting for it!
GettinFit ~ 170-180 sounds like an awesome goal! It helps me to have some kind of timeline set up. I'm sure you'll do fantastically.
Still coughing, but not as tired as I was yesterday. If I am still not feeling well on Tuesday I'll make a doctor's appointment b/c I've had this thing since May 18th and I'm just stubborn.
We had a huge branch {long but only 8" diameter} fall from one of our trees, bounce off the house, then land on the powerlines. I was home alone, and Hubby had to work late, of course. I called him in a panic but since the lines were fine Hubby told me to leave it alone unless the power went out, then assume the lines were broken but still live, and call the power co. He came home and we got the branch moved off the line just before it started to storm again. Sirens blew and we heard reports of two tornados touching down but both were false reports.
Penguin - I'm glad all was okay with you at home. I have lots of trees around my house and I have a fear of the same thing happening during stormy weather.
Emme - Good idea to make an appt if it doesn't clear up.
Hubby and I are planning dinner out and some shopping tonight. Dad decided he wanted a computer but can't find the same one at the same price, so we will see if we can get one like ours. He and Mom are currently in FL visiting my Sis and her family.
I hope everyone had a great evening. Last night we had really bad storms here and I was without power from 6PM-2AM. It was really scarry but thankfully, I only have a few small limbs down.
I'm planning to stay on track this weekend. I know it will be a challenge but I am going to stay on track. I am going to focus on not snacking as much as I did last weekend.
GettinFit ~ I'm planning to stay on track this weekend, too. At least as much as I can. My S-I-L is having us over on Sunday, so I am going to try hard to watch what I eat over there.
My WI was this morning, and I have officially hit my 100 pound mark! 101 pounds to be exact. It sounds weird to say that I lost 100 pounds...most people can't believe I ever had that much extra weight on me. 8 more pounds to my goal...wish me luck!
Morning ladies. I got home late last night so I didn't update before I went to bed. I had a good day yesterday. I spent the morning cleaning my carpets, so I didn't get traditional exercise, but it was definitely a workout. My husband and I went on a date last night. I ate before we went out, we went to a movie so I snuck in my own snacks. =)
Emme ~ Congratulations! That's so exciting.

Hubby and I had a nice quiet evening out. No storms, sirens, or tornado watches! We went to a local BBQ place called Corky's, then did some shopping {I bought yarn!}; we did get Dad a new computer, too. Glutes are pleasantly sore from yesterdays workout, just enough to let me know they are there but not to make me waddle.
Emme, congratulations! What an achivement! How wonderful to be so close to goal
my wedding/reception/honeymoon was amazing and worth every ounce of gain. today i weighed in at 274.6 which is 6.7 pounds higher than last friday, but i'm fairly certain most of it is water/sodium and should come off easily this week. i'll work my way back on plan today, and tomorrow it will be 100% and i will be back on track
Welcome back Mandy!!! I'm glad everything turned out so nice for you. on your marriage and I wish you many happy years
I'm sure you'll drop that gain in no time.
