Lisa - Great loss! Slowly but surely is good - I hardly ever see more than a pound loss but they add up!

Mim (SD_gal) - Congratulations on the great loss. Getting back to plan works. I know what you mean about seeing low numbers for the first time in years - that's where I am now and it feels great!

Mama_angel - Great loss! I'm not sure if you saw my post from a couple of weeks ago, but my husband and I are going to be up your way this summer. I can't wait to see your beautiful state!

Marcia - congratulations on the great loss! I join you on the 0.8 and I'll take it too! Somehow I managed to avoid being asked to buy GS cookies so there are none in the house and I'm glad!

Mom2- Good for you for the maintain, especially if you've been struggling! Interesting thought about self-sabotage. I struggled for the longest time to lose more than 11 pounds. Every time I got there, even if I didn't mean to, I was thinking that this was as far as I've gotten. Finally, I took myself aside and decided to change the dialogue inside my head. It sounds funny but it helped.

Nikki - welcome!

I was pleased to see a 0.8 loss this week. It wasn't a stellar week but I pulled it together. I went to two yoga classes last week and had a few days where I earned an activity point or two with my pedometer. I didn't start on cardio though - first I was waiting to be finished with the steroids and I was feeling good towards the end of the week. Then on Thursday, I woke up with a post-nasal drip, didn't get to sleep until way too late that night and boom, on Friday I got a cold. I've been trying to take really good care of myself this weekend (rest, lots of sleep, etc.) and just hope that it stays a cold and it's over soon. I couldn't help but go out for a short walk today though because it was in the 50's today.

Have a great one!

I lost 4 pounds this week!! My body finally decided to catch up to all this running and good eating I've been doing!! And yes...I'm in Onederland at last!

CONGRATS, LISA!!!! That is so very ONEderful! Keep on keepin' on!

Judy - Good job. I am there with you on not having a "stellar week but I pulled it together"! LOL! Some weeks are just like that.


We took my middle son to a family playplace yesterday to celebrate his 5th bday. It was so much fun. Both DH and I got up in the mazes and had a great time! It was really fun exercise climbing and slider with our boys. My back is a bit sore today, but we had a great family time! We plan to do it again.

I lost 1lb this week! Yeehaw! Still just plugging along and trying hard to make good choices. So I am down 23lbs! Just 6lbs from my first 10%. I'm excited!

Good luck, Ladies!

I lost 2 pds this week. I feel good about that. I have been trying to focus on being healthier and not just dieting. So far its been working for me. Monday is my weigh in day. So i am just about there again. Cant wait to see what the scale shows then!
