I am not a fan of the 'hard sell' either. If I am interested in other products I would rather do it on my own terms rather than have something pushed down my throat. I do know that there is one girl at my centre I hope to avoid from now on. She was the one who cornered me about buying more products and/or weeks so that I didn't feel the pressure of being 'behind schedule'.

About the bars... I don't care for them at all. Protein shakes either. Yuck. But that is personal preference. I would rather have a couple of hard boiled eggs (I usually keep some on hand) as I run out the door than those other things. But I am a weird one. :P

About the rings... that would make me very sad indeed seeing as I am a newlywed. They are loose now but I tend to have 'piano fingers' anyway... not very much meat on them at all.

Michele: your life sounds very busy! What a big commitment you have made to go in to Herbal 1x/week. That is wonderful!

Again, very happy that I have yet to find a pushy person at my clinic!

Meme: Life is busy, but I decided that I really had to make the commitment to myself. Tired of being sick and tired I guess. Pushing myself harder lately to try and see what I actually can do on my own. And you're not the only one that doesn't really like the bars... have this horrible issue with the texture of foods myself . Kinda limiting in the "new food appreciation" category. If nothing else, I'm a creature of habit!

Piano fingers... interesting. I'm in the opposite spectrum... sausage fingers haha. And they tend to stick around (along with my large arms, regardless of what size I am)

Hope everyone had a good day!

I managed to make up for my lack of gym attendance yesterday... 3.5 hours in the yard and 45 minutes at the gym. No wonder the night flew by! Who knew you could fill 35 bags with leaves and twigs and still not be done in the yard... not to mention the stack of branches that's as tall as my fence! I'll become an outdoor person yet...

P.S. Anyone near my area to help get my stiff *** out of bed tomorrow? I can already feel it settling in haha

Night all!

LOL Piano fingers...... thats the only part of me thats ever been and or stayed slim lol. I have long skinny fingers as is... so when the weight came off guess I had some more to lose off of them anyways lol. My ring finger is only sized at 5.5...... think Ill have to take it to a 4......?!?

That's entertaining for me. I think my fingers started this journey at 7.5 but I know they were 8-8.5 in the past. Probably would have broken all of my fingers by now if they were as small as yours Meme and Dria!

Maybe that's were some of my weight that needs to come off is hiding... haha

Happy FRIDAY! (OOOPS - it's FRIDAY for me hahaha)

WI last night was AWESOME! I lost 2.6 pounds since Monday!
I'm officially at 20 pounds lost (20.6) and I'm never looking back!

I also lost 6.5 inches... My total is now 25 1/4" lost in 6 weeks.


Long weekend ahead...extra long for me but a lot of hard work is waiting for us!! I'm hoping to finish most of our renos this weekend...so that we can BREATHE from June on.

Chantal: Woooot!! Congrats on the weight loss!! Good for you!!

Michele: Don't hurt your back!!!!!!!!!

Chantal: Way to go!!!!!!!!!!

Dria: Don't we talk about the weirdest things on here? :P

It is TOM for me. Brutal! But last week was 'hungry week'... this week is straight up pain. Blah! It shall be over with soon enough but talk about feeling lousy. Between my back, hips, and now this... I hobble around like an old lady ... dragging my piano fingers on the floor... J/K...

Have a good one everyone!

Congrats Chantal thats fantastic. Isnt it just a boost of moral to see that scale number decrease!

Good luck with all the work Michele!!!!

Meme.... never thought Id discuss finger size outside the Store I buy rings in lol but hey it works. I guess skinnier fingers is just as much a part of losing weight as the boobs..... How many of you have lost boobs?! lol I HAVE I HAVE lol

Thank you ladies for your support - appreciate it!

On another topic... I'm looking for my passion... lol
Did anyone see it by any chance??

Meme: No kidding about the back! Actually woke up feeling not too stiff and sore today though. Gotta love TOM and all its glory. Think I get to live the high life for about another week and a half until doom hits lol - Great visual you formed in my head btw!

Chantal: Good job on reaching a big milestone! Hoping to get there myself this weekend.

Dria: Don't even mention the boobs thing to me! Always saw my chest as one of my good assets and then it started to disappear - in a hurry! Hasn't gone down in the last two or three weeks according to their measuring tape.... however I think this is only because I need a new bra haha Just not willing to put out the $ for new bras that I won't be able to fit at the end of this anyways!

Hope Bride, Lady and UFF are doing okay.... where are you guys at? Hope things are going well and staying on track for you!

Go to www.myshape.com armed with your measurements and you'll be able to figure out just to what extent you might lose your boobs. I have always had the 'hour-glass' shape no matter what my weight (I think that is the 'S' shape on the site) so eventhough my breasts are going down some... it will not be disproportionate with my body. I always will have hips and breasts ... just not the kind that breaks my back! I suspect you will find the same. It does feel like a rip-off to lose stuff you like about yourself though. WOuldn't it be nice if we could choose where the weight would come off?

Yep, I'm the same! And yes, the breasts are going down too but you know what...I'm ok with that. I'd rather be wearing the bras that I used to wear which were "normal" and guys really liked my boobs (sorry!!)...

I find it so difficult to find a sexy bra in my size... it's the never ending treasure hunt!!! And once I find one, I buy 4 of them,... just in case!! lol

LOL now thats funny!!

Forget the new bras, if it keeps going at this rate we can just wear tube socks!! (now picture that in your head)

lol ewwwwwwwwww tube socks lol
