Well, I'm not going to change my ticker yet (weigh-in is tomorrow evening, I'll change it when it's "official"), but I stepped on the scale today and realized that I officially weigh less than the average (American) football linebacker! (249 lbs, yay go me!)

Flying Betty, I plateaued for a long time, too! It was frustrating, but I looked at is as my body needing to take a break and catch up ... skin needs to shrink, psyche needs to develop a different 'body memory', etc. You can also look at it as you learned how to maintain during that plateau.

Here's my brag:

Today I painted the garage. While that's something to be pleased with, I'm more pleased with the fact that the jeans that my friends used to call my "booty jeans" because they hugged my butt so well are now my big baggy painting jeans! He he he.

Keep up the brags, everyone! I love to read them!

I went out for a b-day dinner on Friday...and at the end i got a b-day cookie and SPLIT IT with everyone that wanted some! I used to give people dirty looks if they even looked at my food. I didnt request a cake( and i loveee it), or a pie, or even a cookie. Thank God the cookie was kinda gross, or was it just my brain saying YUCK? anyways the scale finally moved -1 but heck i'll take it or get rid of it...i sure dont want it.

I spent 7 hours on Saturday scrubbing really grimey wood floors on my hands and knees for a friend renovating an old house. I burned up over 2,000 calories and earned a cool $84 bucks to boot.

And I managed to move around the day after and everything!

I brisk walked 4 miles in an hour last night, even though it was my first day with flo and I 'thought' I had no energy

I even brought along a buncha gal pals and we had a great time walking together
