Good Morning all!
I hope everyone has a stupendous day! Beautiful morning in Virginia, supposed to be almost 80 here today. Weird wacky weather in Va. as it is supposed to snow Sunday night, can't wait for spring!
WI is Saturday and looking forward to it. My diet buddy is down in the 200's as of this am, so happy for her.
Good luck on all of your WI's today!

Good morning all! March is here and I can barely contain my excitement for spring. So sad for those devastated by the season's tornadoes.

I had my chocolate pancakes for breakfast. I always think they are such a treat!! Just taking a few moments before I load up the bike and take my GSD, Hogan, out for a run.

Last night I talked to a friend about IP. She is going to look into the possibilty of doing it provided health survey okay, etc. I sent her a link to this site. I find this invaluable. We don't have a local IP so it is long distance.

I can't believe how I wake up so much better now. My general fatigue and fog is lifting on IP!

Good Morning from Canada.

I am super excited about this program...the quick results have been amazing. I am not sure that I would have had the success without the fellow IPers on this forum. I just wanted to thank everyone for their input and having the courage to show their successes and failures.

Thanks
Cindy

Morning everyone,
I had my first ever NSV today (besides resisting temptations)!
I didnt know what I wanted to wear this morning so I went deep into the back of my closet where I have been eyeing a pair of pants I used to fit in a few years ago, I think a size 8. I kept telling myself that there's no way i'd fit into them seeing the work pants I still wear from when I started arent too loose or too big. However, I dont think I realized how tight I was wearing them at my biggest. I slipped on the pair of size 8 pants and WOW! THEY FIT! I was so nervous and expected disappointment but my DH said my face lit up once I finished buttoning them without any struggle! It made my day so I had to share!

Good luck today for those of you who have WI's today.
