Hey everyone! TGIF! Thanks Ethereal... I finally got to work out last night, even though my back was still a little sore. I know what you mean about hiking... I love that it's all downhill, but my legs always seem so wobbly!
I'm so proud of everyone for their weightloss!
2Bthin - yuck! I thought of your story when my DH asked what he could bring me for dinner while I'm in class tonight.... definitely won't be getting the whopper!
I have had those experiences, too, where I watch someone who is extremely overweight (like on those obesity shows on TLC) eat tons and tons of fried food. I think it's disgusting, but then I remind myself that I have eaten that exact same thing on occassion!
Well I stepped on the scale this morning and finally lost a pound!
I was watching the scale all week @ 202 lbs. and it would NOT budge. Then I went and worked out at the gym yesterday for 40 minutes and that pesky pound finally came off this morning. I think for me, unfortunately, is that I HAVE to exercise. I wish I could be one of those people who just dieted and the weight came off. But no... my body only wants to get rid of the weight when I exercise. That's how it has always been in the past as well, when I tried Atkins, South Beach, 6-week body makeover.... I would never lose that much weight because I wasn't exercising. When I was calorie counting and exercising 4-5x a week last spring, the weight just seemed to melt off. Sigh. So much for the easy way down!
