Have a great weekend everyone!
PERFECT!

You are so right about the how we should look at the holidays. There are much more important reasons for our celebrating this season.

The one said to the other, "Look at Jeannie! She's skinny!" and the other one said..."That's not Jeannie..." MY other NSV was that I was shopping for new clothes - finally - and I was in a store, browsing in the women's section like I always do and the sales girl came up to me and said, "This is the women's section - you don't belong here come with me...." I did the happy dance. To all you newbies -- Stick with it! It works! Have a great Holiday!!!!
WOOO HOOOO!!

Great job!

Gotta love when someone else tells you it is time to leave the woman's section!

That is a wonderful milestone! Keep up the great work!
Oh Sorry! Yeah... that is always a hard realization. Definitely stay on track the next few days. Don't be surprised if your losses this week are a little off. You may have stopped the ketosis process for a short while and need to get things rolling again. Hopefully, things will be great for the next weigh in.

I have not been below 150 for years.
Yesterday FINALLY the scale said 149 and today 148. What is it about "milestones" that seem to jinx us? One milestone down and on to the next!! yay
SO happy for you!! I remember getting stuck at 170. It was a hard to be patient. Good luck with the continued decline!
They look yummmy!!

I replied to your post on the restaurant guide. I hope it helps
