So, I realized today (dressed up just to dress up) that I am getting comfortable with my body... I looked in the mirror and thought, Whoa, this girl is hot! and also, I made the realization that I can almost cross my legs without it feeling awkward.... I am loving this new found self confidence! Haha even more so since with Aunt flo visiting, I've been super moody, so glad I can feel good through it
I hope everyone else is having a great week!

Isn't it a great feeling Deana? You're doing so great and looking good! It's startling to look in the mirror sometimes - almost don't recognize the person looking back!
Congrats to all with these great weigh-ins...esp to Ruth Ann (!!) again, who is doing a very special little jump for joy!! Did not see about all of this until this AM so very sorry with the day late comments on that!...
We live in the "iced in" zone ...and were part of the hundreds of thousands from yesterday with thick ice, no power and all the problems that come from that particular winter predicament. Live down river and a reasonable ride from where the super bowl was played...unbelievable how bad the weather has been here since after midnight on Sunday and how that event dodged the bullet big time!
Week 30 weigh in, down 0.4. Trying not to be bummed, but it's hard. The only thing I did differently was increased my water intake and a few days had my restricted at lunch rather than in the evening. I have been suffering with big c on and off for a couple weeks, I think I will check out some smooth move tea. There's always next weeks weigh in!
Susie I'm with ya. I maintained this AM. I need to track my occasional veggies more. I'm drinking the water, measuring, and getting all oil, salt and vitamins in my body just needs to take it all in. I also exercised more this week. So a mixture of things caused this maintained week. Oh also TOM is here
Weigh in done at work and I won.....I was the winner, here's hoping to they pay up I will be $120.00 richer...The best part about today is that I got on the scale and it said 206...

Tracker/Ticker
Okay all, I went to update my ticker and used the links quick links and it takes you to a non-existent page. I think since 3FC updated the home page maybe it is somewhere else, but I couldn't find it. I used a Ticker Factory one, but I don't like them as much.

Totally understand trying not to be bummed. Last week I had NO CHANGE - to measurements or weight. I just had to keep reminding myself all I could do was work the plan and that the weight will come off. Our bodies hold on to it sometimes. Regarding the big c - I take Magnesium Citrate almost every day to "keep things moving". I also am in the middle of a total body cleanse - our bodies hold on to toxins. This week I was down 3.4. Keep up the good fight.

Last week I had to remind myself that staying the same or maintaining is not bad, and much better than gaining!!! It is discouraging that we can do everything right and our bodies decide what to let go of. You have a good outlook - we do have to let our bodies take everything in.

Hooray!!!! Great for you!!! Hopefully you can use that money or part of it on a reward.

In Seattle, we had escaped the ice but we are now in a very cold and freezing few days which the 700,000 people who showed up for the Seahawks victory parade discovered.
Last night as we were going to bed, my husband commented that it was supposed to drop to 12 degrees overnight. I suddenly remembered that we had uncovered two of our wrapped pipes when we had someone come to power wash the walks and things before putting the house on the market.
So, yes, I put sweat pants under my nightgown, threw on a hoodie, gloves, took a flashlight and recovered the faucet covers and wraps and trudged outside to the front and back yards to rewrap the water faucets so the pipes would not freeze.
I get back in bed to hear my husband groaning and whining about how cold HE is.....sometimes, we deserve medals for keeping a marriage going 24 years under circumstances like this! Mr, Uncommunicative sure was pretty vocal last night!
Carol, so true. I'm not angry or upset with the scale staying the same. I know that I'm doing everything as right as I can. I have to let my body do it's thing!
