Thanks for the encouragement. I spoke with my "accountability coach" yesterday (it's part of the cleanse) and she told me I wasnt suppose to lose any weight during the cleanse part, it is only suppose to rid your body of toxins and prepare you for your journey and extreme weight loss in days 11-24, so now I am pumped. :-)
Anyway, how has everyone been doing with eating and exercising? Ill be off to the gym in another hr and a half. Then Im off from work for the next 3 days, so I will not be checking in until Monday. Hope everyone has a fun weekend. Catch up later.
Hey girls! Still at 157 - *sigh* ready to move on to the next number as usual...
I think I have a potentially interesting date tonight - wish me luck! 6'2" and 43 - so a year younger and an inch taller than my ex who by the way keeps IMing me but I'm playing it a bit cool - I've got other things going, right? Will logon later tonight to give you an update either way...
Morning, girls! I'm now 50 lbs down - woohoo! And, had an amazing date last night. Really great guy that I'm hoping I get a chance to know better. I am a happy girl today
Sounds like everyone is doing great. I'm still trucking with good diet and exercise and am down to 188. My losses are slow but I'm happy. I'm getting ready to go pick up some applications for a small comic con, my hubby is going to set up a booth. Hopefully I can sell some jewelry there too. I'll check in later and do personals. Dance-i have to two lbs to go to be back at 50 lbs lost, yay.
Thanks, burgundy! So it turns out I'm much better at losing weight than I am at dating The guy I liked so much on Thursday (and thought at the time felt the same) hasn't been in touch like he said he would be - such a bummer. I sent him a short text this morning and haven't heard back so I doubt I'll be hearing from him. Oh well. So, to keep myself from turning to food for comfort, I'm going to go get a pedicure and finally get an iphone 5. I have another date tomorrow with a guy I'm not that psyched about but maybe the distraction will help. It would be so nice to find someone I could hang out with for a while...
ETA - finally got a response to my text - we'll see if that means we'll go out again - unclear at this point.

Wow...congrats Dance and Burgundy! The scales are all moving and that is what matters. Slow and steady wins the race. I cannot weight myself or take measurements again until day 24 of my cleanse so I will be a little behind in posting results. I am wearing a dress that I normally wear and it feels really loose so hopefully everything is going in my favor.
Dance - some guys try to play it cool when dating, hopefully he gets moving on setting up something soon. Keep me posted on the other date, I love living vicariously through you, lol.
Nothing major to report, I made it to the gym today and had a yummy lunch. Grilled chicken from KFC (on the run) and a side salad with lemon, salt and pepper...my new favorite dressing. I don't really crave sweet things anymore so I am liking what this cleanse is doing for me just in the realm of how I feel and how my body is reacting.
Ok, I was off from work on Friday so I have to play catch up. I will talk to you girls later.
Lindy - isn't it the best when you don't even want the sweet stuff anymore? Sounds like you are doing great. I'll post again tonight after my date - I have to say my expectations are pretty low for this one but maybe that's better
Dance - if you werent feeling it, I wouldnt go on another date. In my intances when I was dating, I would force myself to keep going on a couple dates and it was a waste of time for both the guy and me. You will eventually click with Mr. Right. :-)
Latest developments - just connected with an old friend and colleague on match who I always thought was cute who recently divorced - we're making plans to get together - could be interesting...
who by the way keeps IMing me but I'm playing it a bit cool - I've got other things going, right? Will logon later tonight to give you an update either way...
