Good Morning Everyone, I just got back from a weeks vacation last Wed. night. I was not as good as I should have beedn and on my scale I had gained 21/2 lbs. I got back o/p Thurs. and went in to weigh today. I lost 1 1/2 lbs. I am glad I lost, but it make me angry with myself that I could have been down more. We our leaving again and I am determined to stay O/P.
Best of Luck to all of you.

Hey Everyone,
I am happy to say that I was finally able to sign the 40 lb board this week, Yahooooo!! My last few posts have certainly reflected by frustrations and struggles but I feel like I have finally managed to get my head back in the game and on the right track again. Thanks and :hug: to everyone for your support; your comments really helped me remember that I am worth it, I deserve it and I will get there. You know the old saying, "This too shall pass", well it's true and so it finally did. It is still amazing to me though how weightloss is seemingly 95% mental, the rest just gives you something to do. OK, maybe the other stuff is important too but you know what I mean. It's kinda funny, If all had gone as planned I would have signed that board 3 weeks ago and was 1/2 a lb away from it before everything went haywire. I ended up gaining 1.5 lbs and now losing 2.5 to get there... but, I have no regrets, this was a very important lesson for me that I hope will continue to carry me through. I've been working out more lately, running and toning with bands. I really do love what running is doing for my body... I've always had pretty heavy thighs with those ugly saddle bags and a kinda flat butt, Crazy enough I'm starting to get more shape to the butt, firmer thighs and the saddle bags are shrinking... I guess I'm literally running it off :D ! Sometimes I close my eyes for a few seconds while running and imagine the fat ever so lightly peeling away and floating off behind me, that usually makes me smile and helps me keep running a little longer LOL. Hope everyone has a great OP rest of the week! :dust: for everyone and stick with it, YOU'RE WORTH IT!!!

I noticed a mention of the Walden Farms dressing. Reading the label it looks like it would not be a problem zero everything. My center said not to use it does anyone know why. It would make my meals so much better.

My center is the one that recommended them to me....so I have no idea why different centers are saying different things. They did tell me they weren't sure about some of the other WF products sold on their web site, like peanut butter, jellies, etc. But the salad dressings they said were fine, as well as their syrup.
