Quick check-in on my mom's laptop. GOAL!!!! My new goal is 187. I'm not overly worried if I make that or not. The reason for that number is that was my weight this time last year and that would mean I have lost all the weight that took me this past year to gain in only 2 months.

Congratulations LovelyLeah! Great idea setting a flexible goal as a follow up Well done!

LovelyLeah ~ Holy smokes Batman...that is AWESOME!! You are really knocking those pounds back. It has been amazing to watch your progress. on being such an inspiration.

magistra17 ~ Thanks! I feel the same way. It is amazing how decluttering and organizing your house can declutter you mind as well. Plus, you are up moving and burning calories, so its a win/win. No worries on the maintaining. Anything that isn't a gain, is a good thing. The pounds will come off with all the hard work you are putting in.

Jacqui ~ I'm sending all the luck I can muster your way. I'll be cheering for ya.

Alright kiddo's, how is everyone doing? Great you say? Awesome!! Well, as for me, I went to the interview this morning and they gave me a job offer. On top of that, they offered me more money due to the "experience you bring to the position." Soooo, I'm just as happy as I can be. Thank you all for the support, prayers and all the good luck you sent my way. You gals ROCK!!!! So, now I am home after a stop to the grocery store (because apparently summertime, translates to lets eat mom into the poorhouse.) In any case, I am going to relax and get some exercise in. I drug my middle son out with me yesterday and with the heat index around 109 yesterday, I think he got more than he bargained for.. So, I'm going to try and get him to go back out to the greenway to walk, but if not perhaps I can convince him to go to the track which is air conditioned. I sure hope you gals are having a wonderful day. Remember, YOU ARE WORTH IT!!!!!

Leah, CONGRATS on making GOAL! Way to go!!!

Delphi, YAY!!!! I'm so glad you got the job and for more money!

Magistra, just stick with it! You're doing great! Soon that scale will be on its way down again! :

Purple, I hope you had a good weigh-in! If not, well, TOM, right? And hopefully you'll have a post-TOM whoosh of weight loss!

Congrats Leah!!! What a great feeling it is! Gives you fuel to keep going.

Hope everybody is having a good week so far. Down a lb. from Friday. Slow going, but I'll take it! Found out today I'll be going out of town for a week next Tuesday. It's going to take some creativity and willpower to stick to my plan, but I am confident I can make it. Wish me luck! Have a great week!

Jacqui on your loss. Keep up the good work!

Congrats to everyone else who has had a drop this past week! Everyone is working so hard and it's showing on the scale. The challenges here for me is the key to keeping me on track.

Hope everyone has a great day tomorrow!

Thanks for the good luck and support along the way. Last nights Slimming world weigh in had me lose 3lb and total 11lbs - I won slimmer of the week. 3lb more and will see me get a 1 stone award in 4 weeks, but I'm just hoping for losses each week for as long as possible.

So goal for the remainder of the month will be 228lb (3lb more) - Will be amazing to be in the 220's.

Purple, CONGRATS!!! Way to go!

Thank you, Lovemylife! Have a wonderful Wednesday!

SusieKay, yay on being another lb down! On your week out of town, give it your best! You can do it!

I am thrilled to have dropped another half lb!

Jacqui, thanks for the "dusting", I'll need all the help I can get. And congrats on the drop!!Weighed again this morning...typically, I only weight twice a week, and was down another half pound. Not much, but just seeing that number go lower is a psychological shot in the arm for me. Hope you guys have a lovely day! Cooler here today...high will only be 83, beats the heck out of the 98 we've been having. I'll take it!

Jacqui, YAY for the newly lost half a pound! Doing good!

LovelyLeah, congrats for reaching your goal!

Still thinking I probably won't get there, BUT I'm really having good time with the recent losses, they really show!
