Another day another try. Lets keep going today. We can do this. Everyone stay on plan today. We all know what to do we just have to make ourselves do it.

My scale is down a little. 2 lbs. So I am not going to complain. I did very well on plan yesterday also. It doesn't seem like I am doing to well on the scale. But like I have told all of you the scale doesn't always tell us what we want it to. Even if we are doing good. We are more then what that scale says. I have to get past that one myself.

I am going to continue to have a great week today. Then we will see what thursday brings. I know that if I don't give up this time just because I am listening to the scale that I will lose eventually. I have to with the healthy eating and exercise and water. So I am going to be patient this time and keep going. It isn't easy but I am not going to go backwards because of what the scale says. It can't talk for god's sake but we sure do hear it.LOL


I hope everyone has a great day today. I am on the road all day today. But I am going to be doing a lot of walking today from place to place. So that will get me some added exercise. I sure will be tired from walking all day.LOL

Have a great one I have to go exercise so I can get out of here for work. The little one is still sleeping so hopefully I can get done and she will be up.

REMEMBER TO STAY ON PLAN TODAY IT IS THE ONLY WAY WE ARE GOING TO MAKE IT TO OUR GOALS. NO EXCUSES JUST DO IT. WE HAVE WHAT IT TAKES.

Lets start out today... Knowing ANYTHING is possible!! Knowing WE CAN do this... and as the Nike comercial says.... JUST DO IT!!! RIGHT??? Only we can make this happen for ourselves... Its a decision that we make everytime we sit down to eat, And we sure cant say we dont know what is the healthier choice on the menu...if we have been in Tops long then we have the info...Now lets use it
I am in a made up mind this morning..And I know its possible to beat this weight, I have seen people drop to where they wanted to be and look like they never had a weight problem....BUT I also notice the choices they make...and its a lifelong change, So I guess we are in this thing for life...and we can choose what kind of life we are gonna make for ourselves...... I choose health!!
And I choose...feeling good about ME, and being able to stand tall and be proud of all the work I have done to Get there Right ladies!! We can do this!!! And we will!!! Have a great day guys, I am rooting for you all everyone!!

Hi Ladies! I am glad everyone is so upbeat this morning. It sure does make me feel more upbeat. I have been off plan since last Thursday and hopefully I can get back on today. I am going to do this, I just have to. I am tired of my scale bouncing back and forth every week. So good luck to everyone and I will check back as soon as I can! Penny

Hello everyone!
I recently joined TOPS and thought I'd reply to your thread. I love the enouragment you get on this site. I couldn't have lost this 18 pounds without it!! I know if I'm having a stressful day and want to binge that 3fatchicks will be here. I've started this lifestyle change in March and it's the longest I've ever been on a program and stuck with it!
I'm looking forward to chatting with all of you on this journey! I'll try to post my bio when I get a chance.

Good afternoon ladies.
I missed my first meeting last night since March. Had to get my new car. Plus I'm still sick. Scale says I'm down 8 pounds, but I don't like loosing it this way. Just trying to keep fluids in me and eating a little.
Somewhat feeling a little better today.

Sherri, Christie, Eleni, shelly, and Penny. We can do this. One day at a time, is all we can do. Keep on trying till it happens.
If other people can do it, we can. Just keep on keeping on.

Take care and talk to you later
Wendy

I sure hope you are better soon... I will be praying for you girl, Let me know how you are... Hang in there, You are doing so good! And thanks again for the e mails!!

Hi Guys,

I don't have much time to post....went for a nice walk at lunch with my friend and I should be working now. I just wanted to say hi. I am still doing okay on my plan......will see what the scale says.
Sorry for the short note...will post more later this week.

They just admitted my father in law to the hospital for low blood pressure and a blood transfusion, They think they know what the problem is... but it may require surgery so I may not be on much if it is serious, But we are hoping and praying it isnt, I will check in and let you know how it goes....

Hey Everyone,

I did it today. I made it through and didn't stop and get any junk to eat. I didn't eat lunch until late around 2:30 or so. I was starving. I was looking for a subway to eat at because I knew I would eat healthy and low fat if I ate there. But I found one on main street where I was working but I couldn't find a place to park. So I went down to the town about 20 min away for work again. I was determined I wasn't going to stop at any fast food places. I did pass them but didn't stop. I finally found a subway and had my lunch. I filled my 32 oz waterbottle that I brought with me today and drank that with my lunch. No junk at all today. I really did it. I can't believe it.

I have been on plan now since friday and I am starting to feel great about myself again like I can really do this. I have not had any junk food all week and it is a great feeling knowing that I have control again of what I am eating.

Christie,

You are so upbeat today. I hope it carried over for the day and that you stayed on track. Did you go shopping and fill your new refrig with healthy foods?LOL
Sorry to hear about your father in law. I hope it isn't anything serious. Let me know. I hope he is feeling better soon. Let me know how you did today on plan. We are doing great this week. You are right we are incharge and we can do this.

Shelly,

Welcome. I am so glad that you have joined us. Congratulations on your loss so far. You are doing great. How far do you have to go to get to goal? Will you be able to make it by the end of the year so you can graduate at SRD next year. I have started a thread to see who can make it by years end to their goals. Be realistic. If you have a lot to lose then don't put that kind of pressure on yourself. I have been working at this for 2 years now. I still have 23 lbs left to go. But I will make it by years end that is for sure. Keep up the great work and come here anytime and join us. I am looking forward to getting to know you.

Marie,

Glad to hear that you are still on plan. Congratulations. I know you can do it. Way to goal. Keep up the great work. You will have a loss this week. Stay focused and on plan and you will be at goal in no time. How do you like walking with your friends at lunch now? It is nice to have someone to walk with isn't it? Glad you have a walking partner.

Wendy,

Congratulations on the new car. Must be nice.LOL What kind did you get? What do you have the flu or something. That isn't a good way to lose the weight. It is all water weight I am sure. That is not good because you can get dehydrated. Make sure you are drinking a lot of water so that doesn't happen. I hope you are feeling better. You take care of yourself and get better. Try not to overdo it until you are back on your feet.

Penny,

At least you are not giving up. But you have to get back on plan girl. Remember that poem start over. You have to read that and start over. Just pick a day that makes you feel comfortable and gear yourself up for that day to be your new beginning. I have had to do that a few times. It really does work. Just think you have come so far I am not going to let you go backwards now and gain back what you worked so hard to lose. You can do this. You just have too much on your plate right now. You have to take care of the other stuff first then you can concentrate on you. You are worth it. You can do this. Don't give up. I am here for you and so isn't everyone else.

Summer,

Hi girl if you are lurking. I miss you. Where are you hiding? Are you back on track after your busy couple of months? I hope so. Check in and let us know.

Have a great night everyone.

Sherri
