154.4 this morning, so that completes another set of 10. I almost don't want to say I've completed it yet, but 155 would be my set of 10, and even if the 154.4 isn't 100% real, it's still showing as of today.

So, I'm going to go with the flow, say it's completed.

Next set of 10 will put me at 145...

I'm starting to get nervous with the numbers.

WOOOOOOOT! Congratulations Spunker! I'm so proud! Why are you getting nervous? You should be doing the cancan or something!

as of today i have lost my 10 lbs for this month already and 1 pound away from 199!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im freaking out i cant wait to see that number at least by wednesday.. feels so good to be 2 weeks ahead of myself.. which means i can reach my goal sooner now

*SCREAMS* OMG you guys are making my hoarse! I'm so happy and proud! You go girls!

Well I lied. I didn't lose that 1 lbs this week, I didn't lose anything. I could sit around and pout but I'm really don't have the patience for whining right now. I was a bad girl the last two weeks and I'm lucky I didn't gain. I'll start losing again this week and keep truckin.

Figured out how to fit in my workouts with the new job. Will be able to go up to 4 times a week.

I started my second job yesterday and it's good and bad. Good because it is EASY as **** and my co workers are funny. Bad because it is SO boring and tedious that I get super sleepy REALLY fast! I drank three cups of coffee today and it didn't help. Lucky for me, everyone including the TRAINER gets sleepy too so *shrugs*

pinupdreams, Congratulations!!! You are soooo unbelievably close to 199!

JasonsLea, I have to say that I truly, honestly admire your attitude so much. If that were me, I would be absolutely flipping my lid lol, but your attitude is so unbelievably amazing, and if anything at all, that is the one thing that will make you succeed. I think I have a lot to learn from you

Aren't those sleep-inducing jobs the best? Mine's like that lol I don't know how you work two jobs, but major props to you!

199 as of yesterday morning.. no longer 200+ pounds!!!

pinupdreams, spunker you guys doing great!! I'm so so happy for you 2! Congrats!!

JasonLea - I know what you mean about boring jobs. What kept me going after a year of being bored was saying each morning I'm going to quit tomorrow. I stayed on 4 additional years. I stood all day. I kept saying who else is going to pay me for standing. I was working alone. So no body to talk to. Makes me yawn just thinking about it! LOL

Well my birthday was pretty much normal day. Watched a movie and I thought I was saving cals by eating a Perkins Muffin. OMG it had 26 grams of fat and was 560 Cals!!! I was off my Alli this week because I had to got to the doctor and my birthday. I wasn't sure if we'd do something special and I didn't want to have a treatment effect. My doctor wants me to have a hystroctomy. I'm not ready for that. So we are going to try a few other things. My weight in was today. down 1 lbs.

everyone!

Spunker ~ Oh gosh! You flatter me! Seriously, thank you! I guess I just kinda told myself one day that I totally screwed myself over in high school by being depressed and beating myself up about my weight instead of DOING SOMETHING and I didn't want to be one of those women that blinked and it's thirty years later, I'm HEAVIER, and still crying over the same thing! At least I'm trying to actually put some time and effort into this this time and I know I will succeed. As they say, I didn't gain it overnight and I won't lose it overnight!

WOOOOOT Pinup! Congrats girl! You're an inspiration!


Mez ~ And congrats on the 1 lb!

So my first week at my new job is officially over. Super easy, just requires LOTS of coffee! My co workers are a riot, I'm always laughing and sometimes blushing because they can get really raw. Next week, we get our own cubicles! I get to decorate and everything! We have a big industrial size refrigerator in the breakroom and I'm going to buy a large insulated bag and make sure I have plenty healthy snacks ready. Plus water, lots of BOTTLE water! You can't drink the water at either one of my jobs. Seriously! Every other woman is PREGNANT! I don't want to pull a Virgin Mary! Having two jobs means I'll be getting paid every week and will be able to save up for my move in December so I'm smiling alot these days!

Shari - Glad to hear your smiling! Your right about sitting around feeling sorry for oneself. I know I'm guilty of doing that way to many days and not one good thing came of it! I got a cute clipare pic here. I'm going to try and make a ticker from. It's of a stork trying to eat a frog, the frog had it's hands around the throat of stork. Then above was witten NEVER GIVE UP!! I love that pic. I have it backed up on a disk I just need to find it. I'm not on alli right now. I've decided to stay off it til I have a chance to take those meds and see how I react to them. I get weird effects from them. So I'm playing it safe even if the Doc. said I could take them with my Alli. I've been doing "ok" on my eating. I need to workout! I'm just not able to find the time and when I do my son has a friend over. I'm going to workout with them here. I had a talk with him and we are working things out with that. I tell just when I think I have something figured out something else comes up!

Weight in was yesterday and TOM decided to visit. I'm down 1 lbs. Slowly moving but at least it's moving. I'm still off Alli. I had to take one of my meds yesterday. I will say this I didn't feel any pain but it make me kind of floaty. Which I really didn't care for. I won't be taking these when I'm watching the grandkids! I've decided not to take Alli until TOM is over. Which can be awhile for me. It is going to be interesting to see how Alli works for me when I do start taking it again. I hope all is going well your end. Shari thanks for the lovely Bday wish. I had typed that in my last message but for some reason I was logged off and had to retype password and all else. That is the 2nd time it's happen. Sending lots of happy vibes.

Hi everyone! Sorry I've been MIA, trying to settle into the new job and all. Hopefully I will be getting my computer fixed within the next two weeks so I can be able to be online more often. So after TOM decided to show up last week, I've blown up about 4 lbs. No biggie. Ya, I said no biggie. Life has been hectic anyway and I can't sit here and say I've been OP. But I just turned 21 Sunday and this is a new start. I'm a big kid now and I got to get my **** together. August is officially Shari's month, yall. It's my month to get my WL plans back on track, get my bills in order, and treat myself because **** yeah I deserve it!

Where are all my ladies?

Morning all. Have you all left me?

TOM started last night. No wonder I've been so moody the past week and eating like a pig!

Where are all my girls!?!?! Did you leave me? Come back!

I'm thinking of trying yoga again. Still waiting *impatiently* to see if Spirit Halloween will call me. I put the app in only last week but I wanna start NOW! Sarah says its lots of fun and I need MONEY!

So I have to get my stepfather a really nice gift this year! He has been taking care of me since mama's gone. We went to the car part place today and he got me the much needed windshield wiper arm, headlight bulb, and the little button thing that rolls up my windows. Tomorrow we're going to get a door handle so I can stop reaching across the seat to open the passenger door! And he fixed my power steering so all I need to get is some fluid and I'm set! Plus he brought me lunch AND put VERY much needed gas in my car! YAY stepdaddy!
