Great job today! I think planning the meals in advance makes all the difference. I thought it was pretty funny you told your sister-in-law you felt bad for her .
I did pretty good today too. Yesterday was really hard making the easter baskets and not eating one single piece of chocalate...But I did it!!! I also made rice krispie treats for a party today and did not lick my fingers or the spoon one single time I did however make the amazing cheesecake for my dessert for the party...but I only ate 1/2 a serving. I didn't feel deprived at all while everyone else ate their strawberry shortcake and rice krispie treats.
Hope everyone loses at next WI!

Great job Hope your next WI goes well!

Great job!

YAH! So happy you made good decisions!
My sister-in-law kinda looked at me funny when I said that but they were all so miserable and sprawled out on the couches and floor. I just shook my head and was so thankful to not be like that.

I am finally back home after what felt like a loooong weekend at my parents. I did ok with food choices. My mom doesn't seem to grasp what is ok on program...and just didn't have what I asked her for. I asked her for some frozen veggies and fruit so I could eat that with whatever meat we would be eating all weekend (which was BBQ brisket for dinner Sat and roast on Sunday). But she got canned green beans and canned mandarin oranges for me to eat....so I did what I could with that.

She barely cooks at home (and when she does, its hamburger helper or frozen meals) so she had no other options for me. I'm feeling bloated, but I'm guzzling water today and will hope for the best at weigh in tomorrow!

Teacherlady- congrats on buying some cute new dresses! I can't wait to see your pics!

Congrats on making it through the day! You must feel so empowered!

Congrats! As long as the numbers are moving in the right direction, it's a good day in my book.

Well, I weighed in today, but I'm not counting it. So I more accurate record of my weight loss, I always weigh in wearing the same outfit so I know that the loss is due to me, and not the different clothes I'm wearing. Of course, I left my outfit home today. Instead, I had to weigh in wearing jeans. Oh well. It'll make it look that much better on Wednesday, I guess.

I also decided to do the Meta-Quick diet for the next week, except for Thursday since that's my wedding anniversary. When I was MRC before, I'd do it every 6-8 weeks to give my body a boost. Hope this works again.

I don't blame you, jeans can make a big difference. Hope metaquick works well for you this week!

Yes... I've noticed that with mine, too. Only a few noticed along the way, but right when I hit around 30-35 lbs is when everyone seemed to notice more... definitely feels good.

[quote=newme12;3823109]Wish I'd thought of wearing the same outfit, but I do try to avoid wearing jeans at all costs. I wear my work clothes, which are a lot light materials.

Someone told me that if canned is all you have... run the food through water to get rid of that excess salt or sugar... try that.

[QUOTE=pnvomaha;3823611]The consultants at my center are awesome. Once I sign in, they tell me go ahead and head on back to the restroom to change. They know my routine.

That's a great idea. I never thought of that.

I went for WI today and only lost a pound but after a hectic week and the stress of Easter, I'll take it. And my measurements.. well, down 18.75 inches! I almost doubled my number from day 15. I'm ecstatic!!
