That's right, Day 10 is down. That's almost like halfway....sort of....
Vanessa - That's awesome that you've stayed on WW for more than three weeks now. Congratulations! Now, every single day, you can say, hey, this is longer than I've ever been on anything. That's a great self-motivator, I think.
Redballoon - All this talk of Indian food - I think that's going to have to be my splurge meal this week. I allow myself one a week, and I don't call it cheating because I don't like the guilt associated with that word. Luckily, I don't care for rice, so I can skip that and indulge in naan!!
Carla - It seems you have had visitors forever! But you seem to be holding up very well. Excellent, I know it's hard to have people staying at home.
Everyone else, have a great day, happy challenging!


) It's made by Amy's Kitchen and it only has 240 calories. I think I'll be hungry again, later tonight. I'll tell you how it is. All this chat about indian food; I just had to try it.

Great going on getting through Day 11! and no beer, even better. Keep it up!
Four done! Keep it going! Yes, coming in here really makes a difference. I think it's, at least for me, the having written it down and said I'd do something, but it simply doesn't work if I just say it to myself, not for too long at least.
Yes, riding is extremely hard work, at least dressage riding on an uncooperative horse. My mare gives me what you ask for and nothing more, and that's at each and every step. In other words, you have to monitor each step (which is kind of what dressage is about) and keep concentrating or she won't either. What the rider gives, the rider gets, that's the way it is with her and I can't blame her for being that way. 
Hope you'll be here with us soon again on a challenge!
Yes, I don't like the word "cheating" either. I mean, you can't really cheat anyhow if you're the one making the rules and I wouldn't have it any other way! Manhattan is great for Indian food, Pakistan, Bangladeshi. I knew a lot of great places down around Tribeca and I think it's Columbus Circle. Do you like spicy foods? I can't eat them so I always have to ask for "as mild as for children." Then they understand!
But yes, it doesn't help to have everything around me tiny...then again, I AM tiny so in my case, it IS a help in reminding me to get the fat off, but nonetheless depressing, especially when there is just NO room whatsoever for overweight as far as buying clothes goes, and the fact that I have big feet, which has nothing to do with the weight. The disgust comes from ME just not getting the damn fat off, that's all! The fact that it could be a whole lot worse is no consolation. I'm just lazy about certain things.
As for arthritis, I have heard about tomatoes causing problems, as do any member of the nightshade family, such as eggplant. But I have heard that dairy is a far bigger cause of joint pain than is let on, especially since the dairy industry is such big money. Such things are kept hush. All the junk going into cattle these days certainly cannot be good for us. I do best with very little dairy.
Glad you're feeling good! Keep it going!
So glad to hear about the weight loss and, yes, 22 days on WW is fantastic. I am just so happy to hear how great you are doing! Keep it up!! 

and day 3 on exercise challenge
!!!

Just imagining myself in tennis shoes walking to a dvd playing on my computer and my boss walks in my office (wonder which reaction I'll get)
