Hey, guys! Today is weigh-in and we're about to take off for the morning but I wanted to try and re-build the habit of coming by and replying everyday.
So here I am -- even with moisturizer still on my face!
J-ann -- our mountains are just beginning to show their colours too! It is beautiful. Everytime we drive down to the Smokys, the drive is more colourful. I think we're about a month away from blazing beauty here. I'm hoping we'll have tents by then because I want to go tent camping (a three day, two night hike) and walk along ridge lines and just look, ya know? Glad you're pool is open again.
Routines are soooo important!
ssdiane -- my real name is Jenanne. Most folks call me Jen. Slutbunny is a nickname I aquired a few years back during the course of a conversation with a fella online regarding women, privacy and whether its necessary to "hide" your gender in order not to be targeted by weirdos. As we were talking, I said, "I'm not going to hide my gender to please someone else. I'll be known as jen, daphne, slutbunny or whatever the **** else I please, thankyouverymuch." A couple days later (for reasons too complicated to cover in a post, I think), I was required by the board manager to change my name from "Daphne" to something else. Recalling that conversation, I choose Slutbunny, and so its been ever since. A few folks use the name in "real life" but mostly not. It amuses me because the name really isn't a picture of who I am at all (I'm a Roman Catholic mom, married happily, and neither slut nor bunny like in the least).
So it goes.
Determined to succeed -- WOW! How wonderful that your clothing are fitting differently!!! The evil-scale (I have one of those around here some weeks, too) doesn't know what its talkin' about.
Your butts getting smaller, your arms are getting smaller, your tummys getting smaller --
that's real progress! I slid my own bottom into a pair of size 22 jeans that hadn't fit
ever -- I bought them on spec a couple years ago and wasn't willing to give them away because I just knew I
should fit them. Well, now I do! (Remind me of this chat if I come back today with a tale of maintaining or gaining... its easier to pep talk someone else than it is yourself, huh?)
No hiking today -- too busy, too achy. Hope you all have great on program days!!
