Laifierr - hope the interview went well! Congrats on being close to a new decade!! Such a good feeling. You're doing great - keep up the good work!
Tar - congrats on your new low!! So close!!
Teacher - glad to hear your car repairs are done. I hate car stress! We tend to buy conservative car brands known for their reliability just so I can avoid repair drama as much as humanly possible, LOL! A few years back, I had a very fun but unreliable brand and it TORTURED me - constantly needing repair (under warranty mostly, but i despised the hassle). Someday, maybe I'll buy a fun car again. Have fun this weekend!
Jen - you're doing great with your food plan! Are you IFing too? I can't remember if you're still doing that. I hope your hard work pays off for you on the scale.
Sushi - definitely don't sweat it. The water weight upticks are annoying but since you can explain it, you know it will come flying off (and probably some additional) once TOM is over for you. Keep up the good work!
ItsMy & Kay - hey ladies! Hope all is well!
As for me - finally dropped the rest of my ovulation water retention and saw a new low of 128.3 (previous new low was 128.5), so that was fun. I'm determined to behave and stay on plan this weekend (meaning no more giant cupcakes, LOL) so I can MAYBE ride this whoosh into 127. And of course, as you probably all predicted a month ago, LOL, now that I'm closing in on my new/lower goal of 125 I'm already thinking about lowering it. I can't believe how much fat I still have in my abdomen and upper thighs and arms. This last 5-10 pounds has definitely shrunk those areas, but there's more to go. So I think I'll reset my goal to 115 and see where I go. I'm not sure I'll really get that low, mainly because I can't fathom a number that low. I'm quickly learning that I can't talk about my goal weights with anyone other than you guys, my Mom and my DH because everyone else (friends/coworkers) are all harassing me that I'm losing too much. I look skinny in clothes, but definitely not when I'm naked....obviously only DH and my Mom see me naked (Mom and I went bathing suit shopping recently and she admitted she was surprised to see that I still had more fat to lose since I look so skinny in clothes). It's become quite annoying to me, so I avoid talking about it and pretend that I'm done losing weight so I don't have to hear it from people anymore. My DH is fiercely protective of my curves, so he will DEFINITELY alert me when I've gone too far, LOL! I still have plenty of curves...
