Yes, Same for me too Susan. I notice some changes, but not enough for changing my size yet :)

Done well yesterday too. Have a good Friday everyone!!

I surprised myself by getting outside and walking for 42 minutes at a pretty good clip. DS10 was at swim practice and I couldn't stand the thought of sitting in the bleachers. I'd have gone longer but it was getting dark! I'll only have a couple of weeks to do this because the time change is coming and it'll be even darker ... but it did feel good to be outside. Time to wrestle the treadmill out of the corner, I guess!

Good mornin' girls TGIF !! It's nice that it's Friday but for me that means the danger zone when it comes to food and wine :rolleyes: .... DH is on call though so this would be the best weekend not to drink, no temptations, we don't go out... The only temptation is if my GF comes over....I'll do the best I can...

ICU -- Good for you for getting out and walking ...

Let's be careful out there !!

My last 15 pounds are driving me crazy...it's really true that they are the hardest to lose. The scale seems to hover between 143 and 145...it dipped down to 141, but i think 1200 calories was causing my body to cling to every calorie. I've started exercising more, but it doesn't seem to help.

Yesterday i had a bad day, and i was tired of seeing the scale refusing to move. I had a really really bad eating day. The first time in a while i let counting go out the window. I didn't binge though...which makes me feel like i've improve. I'm also back on track today...but up 2 pounds :(

I feel like i should be upping my calories to more 1200..but i'm scared to go over that number. I need to bust through this plateau!!!

Happy Friday Feathers! I've done well this week with workouts and eating... but tonight we're going out for Mexican... and I absolutely cannot resist cheese dip... And I usually have a brew or two, too... oye vey! I always do my workouts after my LO goes to bed so my goal is to not stuff myself sick so I can still get in a good workout tonight! I'm going to try to only eat half of what they put on my plate. Grand Cayman is just around the corner - less than 5 weeks away - so I'm going to try to keep that in mind while we're out.

In my hunt for a uniform with long pants (under the bed in boxes), I found a pair of jeans that fits!! So my wardrobe just grew by one set of small scrubs that I had tailored to fit and one pair of size 6 jeans!! :dancer:

WOW :woohoo: that's awesome size 6 jeans !!!

Amy -- How was your Friday night Mexican outing?

Mandi -- instead of more calories can you intensify your workouts?

I did have wine last night plus my day food wise wasn't great, but I'm back on track today, eventhough I didn't exercise yet, I did informal exercise like housework :yes: ... Food is spot on so far today too... I made a lentil casserole :hug: tastes like baked beans so we're having that for supper along with broccoli and salmon, can't wait :D

Morning!

I ran into a small problem with banana cream pie and wine last night :eek: Calories yesterday ... not so good.

I hate it when that banana cream pie jumps right off the plate into my mouth !!

Banana cream pie ... the cheekiest of all pies.

Angel food cake for dessert tonight, my daughter's birthday and she ordered it.

Mostly a housework day with family coming for dinner tonight but got the dogs walked already.

I'm going to see if I can maintain my 128lbs for the week before I change the ticker. I've lost 2 inches in my hips and 1" in my waist though :carrot:

Have a productive week :)

Ilene - Mexican is my weakness... I had one brew and I ordered a shrimp & black bean burrito... which sounds relatively healthy... till they bring it out smothered in melted cheese! I ate about half of it then just picked the remaining shrimp out and at them without all the other stuff. When I got home, I was able to pull off a pilates workout then did another 10min stretch workout because I was so sore from a kickboxing workout from the previous day.

Yesterday I was an "off day" workout wise, and I noticed I eat worse on those days. Today I behaved - got in one workout so far (one more to go tonight) and ate relatively well. Not sure how weigh-in will be tomorrow... we shall see. If I can remember, I'm going to have DH measure me too to compare to my early Sept stats.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Good morning!

Considering that it was the weekend (and I usuallly do very badly) yesterday was pretty good. Calories were good, I exercised and I slept very well.

I keep forgetting to do my measurements.

Morning all, was not around for the weekend, my mom was in town, baking and cooking, yay! So that was a bust. But, October is here and my goal is 6lbs this month. I am going to New Orleans in November and can't afford to buy new clothes for the trip, so I must fit into old ones!!!

Have a great day all!

I was down with fever for last couple of days. :( and lost a lot of weight in 2 days. But I am sure I'm to regain it all. So nothing exciting about it.. :)

I wont jog today, but went for a walking for 30 minutes. Will on track tomorrow :)
Will you all a nice day!!
