Also, I am now one pound away from the lowest I got to while doing IP the first time! This time I have my head in the game and am going to see it through until goal and into maintenance!
Good morning. I got very little sleep last night. My daughter called me from college very excited about call backs(she is a double major in theater directing and performance), and wanted to talk. That was midnight, oh my. Oh well, it is not the first time I have gone on little sleep and tonight is a quiet night at home.
I have a promo to do at lunch for a singing valentine group I am in. It is at the country club for local chamber of commerce to drum up interest. It will be fun, but I switched to alto because we are low on that part and I got the music two days ago, gulp. Oh well, wing it. We need to wear white on top, black on bottom, and luckily I bought some new black dress pants that fit last weekend so I will not be tugging those up.
Wish me luck!
Wow-- Good luck! I hope you enjoy the new pants too!
Well Aunt Flo's in town so a small loss this week. Didn't quite hit 145 yet. :/
But I know it's just water retention. Next week for sure! My sinuses have begun to drain and now I have that annoying cough as well. Ugh. Going to try and avoid the cough drops, don't want hat yucky bloat on top of everything else! Hope ya'll stay warm and have a great day!
Down 3.4 lbs for week 27 weigh in! What a welcome number after two 1 pound weeks in a row! Hello 170s, I don't plan to visit long, wouldn't want to keep the 160s and 150s waiting!
Hope everyone has a great day!
Awesome, girl!! WTG
Hi everyone! Started P4 yesterday. Was a little weird having the carbs at supper (I had a steak, brown rice, veggie stir-fry), still feel a bit "guilty" about it but I'm not going to beat myself up.
Hearing some great NSV's lately - love hearing those, keep it up everyone!
Got some Quest bars the other day - love, love, love the Cinnamon Roll and Strawberry Cheesecake ones, yum! Unfortunately, so does my son...
Horrible weather here today - a bunch of highways around the city are closed, I have lots of staff who won't make it in and I have a million things to do <sigh>. Oh well, another cup of tea and get at it.
Sarita....what a great picture!!! Yesterday one of my coworkers said to me "You are GLOWING! Your skin is glowing and your smile is glowing, you just look so happy with where you are in your life!" It was the sweetest compliment anyone has ever said to me in regards to the weight loss. I'm passing that compliment down to you because you look so happy in that picture!
I had a successful WI this AM. I wish I could say I knew why my loss was so much larger than normal but I don't! I had a few pieces of meat that were higher in fat but I'm PUMPED!

Jo, sorry the weather stinks there. We in Colorado are in a bit of a "heat wave" - 40's - 60's (farenheit) for the next week or so. Oh well, it will get cold again soon enough, looks like it will be good weather here in Denver for the football game between Broncos & Patriots on Sunday.
Anyway, I read through the Quest bar thread last night and was reading your comments above, don't the Quest bars have too much protein (like the cinnamon roll)? It looks like it is 20g.
Lisa32989 Thanks for the ideas. I made the soup a little thinner yesterday and it went down much easier. By the way, you are looking great. Great progress and an inspiration.
Maybe I'll figure out how to reply next to your comment. It will take a few times for me to figure it out.

Sopra2. Thanks for the welcome and the ideas about the clothes. I decided I would not buy one new thing to allow for my weight gain. I am looking forward to going shopping in my own closet again. I will have a whole new wardrobe! I can hardly wait!
Great job!
