Hey, slow-carb folks - checking in:

I weighed myself Saturday morning (the morning of my cheat day) and was down 2 pounds for the week at 238. Not spectacular, but I'll take it.

I stuck with the plan pretty good except for some indiscretions with red wine and nuts - in other words, my usual weaknesses. I also had 2 glasses of champagne at my neighbor's family Easter brunch last weekend.

My goals for this week are to not have any wine and to only have 1 snack-sized bag of nuts a day, if that. I can't buy multi-serving sized containers of nuts any more because I can't be trusted. Also - and I think this will be hardest of all - I want to try to minimize the artificial sweeteners. We'll see how it goes.

Rennie - looks like you're within spitting distance of your goal. You'll be there in no time!

Cindi - congrats on the new pants size! I need to go clothes shopping. It's always tempting to buy smaller sizes when "planning" to lose weight, but that never works out for me, lol.

Have a good week, everybody. - Ali

Thanks Trixlebing, good job on the 2lbs down I hadn't updated that so I'm back to square one ...

I've had a gain everyday since the 24th. I am up 2.6lbs total but I am gonna do the 5:2 diet today and see if I can get the scale to move down. Hope it works so I can see a loss by the end of April

Rennie and Ali congrats on the 2 lb loss!

I am back at 150, too and doing better!

Meals for today:
B~ 2 eggs, bacon and wheat toast
L~ leftovers w/peas
D~ Grilled chicken a few fries
S~ pumpkin and sunflower seeds

Tomorrow I have painting to do, so I will be too busy to be thinking about food!

How are you doing, Shannon?

Praying you all are safe and not in the tornado areas! the weather man just said we would be waking up to an elevated risk of tornadoes here in the panhandle of FL...

Oh, I bought a super looking pair of size 12 jeans 6 months ago for 50 cents and I an actually in them today!!!!! That was the only item of clothing I allowed myself to buy, but for 50 cents I knew I could give them away IF I did not make my 150 goal. Now on to the 145 and then 140!

Let's go keep going. Ladies. Slow, but sure is my motto!

Night to ALL!

Thanks Cindi, what a great NSV The weather is really interesting right now, praying for all that may be in their path.

I hit a new low today. I really wish Jacqui, Missy, Pamela and TwoTots were here with us

Goal 160.0

Hi all! Doing well here! I'm getting closer to my 2nd mini goal and today I had my first occurrence of "have you lost weight?"

Shannon that is great I'm sure you were shining and grinning from ear to ear

Celebrating!!!!

I just went under my first goal! I am now at 149!

Looks like we are all doing well...

B~ eggs/kale/red peppers/turkey bacon
L~ fish, slaw salad and a few homemade potato chips
D~ Homemade beef veggie soup and about 6 saltines
S~ pumpkin/sunflower seeds and a handful of trail mix

Tomorrow we will be eating out with 2 other couples. We women are celebrating our May birthdays. Don't know where we are going, but it will not be easy to eat "clean"...

Plan to enjoy my time with my loved ones!

Have a great day tomorrow, Ladies!

Cindi, on the new decade of my goodness that makes me smile go you Keep up the great work

Okay... I gained 3 pounds with all the celebrating...back on the plan once again.
