Good morning girls!! It's almost Friday!!
I can't believe it's almost the end of the month!! Wow, this month has flown by!
Gardenerjoy ~ Congrats on the new low! I completely get how not checking in daily can be damaging...that's the first thing I stop doing too, first a day, a week, then a month, a year...five...so yeah, best to keep posting daily!
(btw,
Delphi hit her 5 lb goal as well.
)
LovelyLeah ~ hurray on getting the laptop back soon and the loss too!
Lovemylife ~ Thanks!! I love your sunshiny posts!!
Ms.Tibbles ~ Congrats on the loss! You will kill it next month for sure!! Weighing daily is tricky, you'll see lots of fluctuations and some days you'll want to throw the scale against the wall. However, going into it knowing that the scale does not reflect everything is key. Just because the number goes up, does not mean that you are getting bigger, it means your body is changing. It might mean you are retaining water, it might mean that TOM is on the way, it might mean you didn't eat enough and your body isn't giving it up easily...just keep eating on plan, exercising and that scale will move eventually. I find it helps me to stay motivated, that's why I weigh daily. Other people find it discourages them so they weight weekly/monthly. Do whatever works for you, just know we'll be here to cheer you on!
JacquiD ~
:Bravo: I KNEW you could do it!!
Congratulations!!!
Magistra ~ You go girl! Yup, that size change will be here before you know it!!
PurpleJ ~ So long as you keep coming here, we don't care if you weigh daily/weekly/monthly.
You've had a fantastic month!! Keep up the amazing work!
Kelijpa ~ Thanks so much! I am with you, this group is amazing and I am so thankful that after five years gone that it is still going strong and that even though it's a different group of girls for the most part, the spirit is still the same.
Berryblondeboys ~ sometimes cake has magical properties, I swear!
I was down the day after the wedding--I give credit to the cake (or the wine...or both
)! Glad to hear that pesky water is going bye-bye!
HIheart ~
since I haven't said it yet.
You have done a great job this month!! Congratulations!!
Delphi ~ girrrrrl I was about to hunt you down on FB if I didn't see you here!!
So glad that all is well!! Congratulations on making goal!
I never had a doubt!
Have you started the new job yet? If so, how's it going? Are the boys back to school yet, or have you got some more time still? So glad you're back!! We missed you girlie!
unwanted37 ~ Congratulations on making your new goal!!
Great job!!!

So...it's almost the end of the month ladies!!
Has everyone got their August Goal figured out?
I am still trying to figure out my exercise goal...ending the month before the end of the week messes with my weird exercise OCD a bit. Why can't every month end on a Saturday so my workouts can be switched up yet still be completed?
Not much to report here, TOM has finally left the building so that's good. Hubs has been out of town all week and will be home tomorrow. I've still been struggling with the dang time change and overslept by a ton today...but on the upside, I doubt I'll be falling asleep before dinner like the past two days.
The kids and I are gearing up to start school next week and I need to have a fire lit under me to clean up the office! I met our new neighbors last night and it turns out that a few years back I actually met her through a local moms group online and went to her house for a playdate! I would have never recognized her, but she remembered me because of my twins.
Small, small world. Thankfully she seems cool and her kids seem sweet (we've had issues with neighbor kids in the past, so this a good thing!). Other than that, not much else is going on, same ol' same ol'. I am so very glad to be able to check in here daily again! You ladies ROCK and I am so very glad that his group is still alive and kicking!!
Have a fantastic day girls and be sure to DRINK YOUR WATER!!!

You know, I was so happy to see you still here when I came back to 3FC. I was so dumb for leaving for over a year! You may go up and down with maintenance sometimes, but you didn't gain all your weight back and then some, so you should be very proud of yourself for your good decisions! I'm sure proud of you!
