  • I am sorry Sum.... its probably left over from Thursday... Tomorrow your scale will smile at you!

    Thank you Smith! and yep I am going to the doctor on the 23rd for a physical and need to get that thyroid (that was swollen 3 weeks ago) checked out. (Mom has thyroid problems too.... and its hereditory - sad thing is I also inherited my Aunts bad Gall Bladder lol... but I have all the hair in the family...lololol) ---- On another note.. you are in the 168's .. WOWOWOWOWOWO... I mean that is just so awesome to be South of 170! and you are less than $20 (I always think money with loss nos) from your goal!... you can count down singles now!


    Well HAPPY DAY for me ... so I do need to think of a HAPPY DANCE

    242.5... So happy to be closer to 239 than 245.. (well right in the middle.. but I an leaning) Makes my day HAPPIER!!
  • Happy Sunday!!! No new news but that's not unusual for me....thinking about not weighing for a week...if I can actually pull it off - trying not to be a slave to the scale....I don't want it to "rule" my world when I am staying on plan, exercising and it is just going to take a long time. Wish my magic wand was working and I could get rid of these pounds immediately....hate being impatient - really trying to enjoy the journey. I treated myself to a Nike dri-fit XL workout shirt for $16 bucks yesterday. It looks good and will look great in 10 pounds.

    Wannaskipandlaugh - thought about you a lot and hope things are getting better - wishing happy thoughts and Atkins food choices for you!! We are all in the struggle together!! I told my doctor I like walking because it is the only time of the day I don't have think about food choices - the mental challenge of carb addiction can be exhausting!!

    Wishing everyone a downdowndown!!!
  • I was just not hungry yesterday, but thirsty...I expected to see a bigger drop Maybe tomorrow.

  • Can't weight - which is fine because I want to try to go 7 days without weighing and focusing on food choices and exercise. I think the DVD may have come in. My husband is supposed to go pick up a package at the post office today. My clothes are feeling better....and I tried on a size 14 Lands End collared shirt this weekend. I can button it up but know 10 pounds will make it so I can wear it in public!! Even with exercise my stomach is jiggly because of the weight loss....

    I love Mama Odie's song "dig a little deeper" from Disney's Princess and the Frog, it's a great re-motovational song!

    So I did that colored rock and cup weight loss thing...I really like the visual! Told dh if he hasn't seen the rocks move, then let me know I need to 'dig a little deeper' LOL! He so puts up with me!
