Scale finally moved and only 1lb to go to my July goal now! Feels amazing as I was in such a low place in terms of my weight at the start of the month.
Thanks all for the support along the way - hope you're all doing well.
Welcome, econ_nerd and CarlaVeg! CarlaVeg, what would you like me to put as your goal for the rest of July? We'll have a new thread for August so you can keep losing with us!
Lovemylife, if you don't have a blog, you need to have one! You are so bright and cheery, and you would make so many people's day just by your sunny greetings each morning! You always make me smile!
Hiya, Joy!
Keli, I hope TOM brings a nice whoosh for you!
Thank you, Enola! Whenever I have TOM (I never know anymore at my age!), it follows that same pattern. I gain the week before and then once it begins, whoosh! The good news is that whoosh of water weight loss! I also tend to get a migraine 1-2 days before, which also disappears once TOM begins! Pre-TOM is a bugger!
This might be goodbye for a little bit. I have to take my laptop in to Geek Squad to get fixed and I'm pretty sure they'll be sending it out which means it could take a couple weeks to get fixed. I still have my phone and I'll use my mom's laptop when I can but if I seem extra quiet, that would be why.
LovelyLeah ~ That sounds awesome about your work family. Glad it has worked out so well for you. Yeah, my job was very shady about how they did it. I literally had a slip waiting for me in my work email when I returned. Their loss. I was not getting enough hours for the last 2 months anyways and have been looking for work. So at least I got to take my fabulous beach vacation. Geeksquad is really good about not taking too long. We had a MAC go in and it was back within a week. They did a great job as well. Good luck and on the 25 pounds down. So proud of you.
lovemylife001 ~ Well how was your weekend? Hope it was fabulous.
EnolaAlone ~ I also start retaining a week before TOM but it sticks around for me for ever it seems like. Good luck. Hope TOM doesn't cause too much of a problem for you.
PurpleJ ~ on the movement. You are so close to goal. Hopefully you will see that last pound real soon.
econ nerd ~ Sounds like an excellent goal. You sound focused. You will definitely hit your goal. You are headed in the right direction.
CarlaVeg ~ I think we have all had those weekends where the "plan" just hits the fan and before you know it, we fall head first off the wagon. No worries though. We get right back on and keep fighting the good fight. We just need a little redirection. You will be just fine. You are here checking in and being accountable and that indeed is an amazing thing.
gardenerjoy ~ on hitting the new low. That is awesome. Congrats.
berryblondeboys ~ on hitting GOAL. AWESOME!!!!
magistra17 ~ So glad you are back to the July 4th weight. I'm trying to get back there as well. You give me hope. Thanks. Looks like you are doing very well. Keep up the great work.
Jacqui ~ You are just hitting milestones left and right. Here is a few more as you deserve it. Awesomesauce!!!!
hazeldust ~ Good luck. You are almost to goal. Those 4.4 will be gone in no time.
Sandye ~ I miss Sandye.

Whew, finally caught up. Miss you guys. In any case, my week and weekend have just been chalk full of cleaning, organizing and purging. My whole house is so clean and everything is finally organized. I'm LOVING it. Not too mention I have just stayed uber busy. I figure while I have a break with no work, I might as well play catch up on all the household stuff..eh? My son and I did walk almost 4 miles this morning and it felt good. Going to try again tomorrow if I'm not too sore. My scale is still frustrating me, but I can say that come h3ll or high water, I will get back to pre-vacation weight by the end of this month. Well I have things to do and good choices to make, so I will see you folks tomorrow. I do have an interview tomorrow, so wish me luck. I sure as heck would like to nail this one. Anywho, take care, work hard and smile.
Thanks all Started my cycle tonight and can't pretend i'm not gutted and worried for tomorrows slimming world weigh in... really hope it doesn't affect my losses. My cycle can be annoyingly slow and long too.
Will keep eating right and trust things will go the right way.
Hadn't thought of it that way! Fingers x'd - and could explain why I got 'stuck' for a few days. lol
Either way I can't do anything but stay on plan and have faith in my eating.

I seem to be maintaining at 189. At least it's not going up again.
Delphi I have been cleaning my house too. My house tends to get horribly cluttered during the school year so I have to declutter during the summer. It is such a great, peaceful, satisfying feeling to walk around the house and not see clutter. Good luck with your interview! Keeping my fingers crossed! And sending you prayers.
Carla and Karen! Good luck to you both!
You can do it!

Keep it up!
Fantastic!
