0/7 AGAIN!!! I keep forgetting, it's not a conscious decision to step on them, it's just habit, I'm on there before i have time to think...I'm going to move them so i'll remember that i shouldn't step on when i have to remember where i put them...does that make sense??? LOL KTna - well done for keeping off the scales...you go girl...make it to the end of the week!

What's all this talk about saggy boobs??? I wish i had enought to sag....i don't even fill a 34B even at my heaviest my bra was still half empty!! Glad you managed to find a couple of bras you like leanne...I have one on those 5 way ones, they are really useful, especially in summer with all the different neck lines in t-shirts and dresses! Leanne, i too was pleased to hear fake ones droop too....see there is some justice in the world!! Well done on the 123.4lbs!!!

Flower - A 1/4 ACRE???? WOW That's a lot of tomatoes, why a T stake, what's the difference / benifit from using them to ordinary ones?? I am growing vegtables for the first time this year. my youngest DD has decided she is going to be a lady farmer when she grows up, so she asked if we could grow some potatoes. We have broad beans, radishes, cougettes, leeks & potatoes growing, wiht lettuces and tomatoes going in soon. i feel quite green fingered at the moment, all is going well and she is very keen watering and weeding etc... but it's all on a small scale....what other things do you grow??

HS - What do you expect with an empty bag of tater chips??? after all you are the queen!! I hope your back on the wagon today - no more chips....otherwise you won't want to run!!!

Have a good day everyone!

4/7!
Holy crow I never thought I could stay off the scale this long.
I had a pretty bad debate with myself over it this morning, but I won in the end.
Now I'm wondering if I should stay off til Monday and really make it the whole week, Imagine, 7/7! The only thing keeping me sane right now is that my pants are loose.

Hello!

Boy this boob talk makes me feel better. I was thinking that I was the only one that could not find a good bra. As my Nana would say "Women in our family have deflated bags of marbles". I have one that is a 36DD and one that is a 36D. If they have to sag couldn't they just do it evenly?

Tulip, It is a T-Post that I am using. I have very rocky ground and I have to use a post driver. They are the type of posts that use for fencing. I then will run wires accross and tie the tomatoes up on the wire as they grow. I grow tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, zucchini, and watermelons. Take them to the local farmers market. Think I have found an in at one of the local groceries as well. Have some other odds and ends of stuff that I grow just for us to eat.
I love it when my youngest wants to help. She is going to be ten on Mothers Day. How old is your daughter?

I got on the scale today. It said that I had dropped one pound. I do not know how to change my tracker. Not going to worry about it untill the scale tells me that more than once.

Have a good night everyone!

Happy Friday!

Well, I ran 10km today......YAY YAY YAY lol, it took me 74 minutes and let me tell you, I wont be working out tomorrow- I am already sore...but, it was soooo worth it!
Lol, sorry to make everyone start thinking about their boobs, I was just both shocked and thrilled to get a push up bra, that put the girls back in place...haha I've never before been able to wear sexy spag strap tops because Id have these HUUUUUUUUGE bras on...lol

Okay, I am off to take a hot bath and soak my muscles a bit..sorry all I stepped on the scale again today, BUT I must say hubby moved it to the other side of the room and I almost forgot to weigh myself this morning...

I don't think I weighed myself today. If I did, I forgot about it. (I swear, it really is like sleepwalking to the scale in the morning!) I'm not staying off of it enough, but any time it isn't several times throughout the day is good for me It's scary that less than a year ago I didn't own a scale and now I'm and addict

The sagging boobs talk made me laugh. I have a nightmare time finding a bra that fits so I usually either end up buying whatever I can find in the store and spilling over the top or else ordering bras to be shipped over from England. *sigh* Even when I was at my lowest weight ever in high school, I wore a DDD. Now it's a G. You'd think with all of the plastic surgery in this country someone would carry bras that big, but I'm starting to feel like the only one cursed with this size naturally.

14 days without weighing yourself splashes????.....NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL A CHALLENGE!!! I'd be happy with 1 out of 4!!! lol Although i didn't weigh on Friday, Saturday or today so that's a 3/7...which is my personal best!! Which looks pretty good until i tell you that i have been sooooo busy working nights, sleeping all morning then dashing around all afternoon that i haven't had time to stop and think about weighing myself so hopefully i will make it to 7 out of 7 this week.

Leanne - well done on your run...you sound as if your really enjoy yourself, i wish i could summonds that much enthusiasium for exersice. I always enjoy my walking, but only during or afterwards...never before that gives me the kick up the backside to do it more often!!! Hope you didn't suffer too much afterwards??!

HS - what job are you doing now?? you used to work with horses, but then my memory has you doing something in the restaurant trade, which was the same as me back last year. But didn't you ahve payrol problems at that place???

flower - my DD will be 10 on the 25th May - not sure when your mothers day is, (ours is in March) but our DD's are about the same age! Your market garden sounds great...i know where to come for advice from now on. You seem to be growning the same type of stuff as me...only MORE!!!! My courgettes (zucchini) are growing wild at the moment, i have to wait a few more weeks before i can plant them out - i don't have a green house so i have them on all the window ledges around the house...hubby is non to pleased!!! ;-( If you need to change your tracker, go into user CP at the top of the page, it can be accessed from that page (I think!!)

Michelle - I think i am guilty of sleepwalking to the scales as well, sometimes i;m on there before it has registered what i am doing....IT'S DEFINATLEY A HABIT!! Have you tried the internet for underwear for the larger chested lady??? try www.figleaves.com they have loads of pages of pretty underwear from DD+ right up to JJ - it's worth a look!!

Well i hope your all enjoying oyur Sunday...it's a bank holiday over here so we get Monday off work / school as well and finaly the sun is shining, so it's a lazy afternoon in the garden for us (until i have to go to work this evening!! )

just a quick buzz to say I fell onto the scale, fellow addicts...went a full 7 days tho///so it's back to 0/1 for me...but once I was on the scale...I haven't gained...haven't lost...and it IS ToM...so I'm hoping when it's done....the water gain will go away leaving a few pounds down!!

See everyone on Monday!!

Hey all, hope you had a great weekend.
I was able to stay off the scale 5/7 last week. Got on over the weekend, and saw the first loss all month. (1.5 lbs)
This week I'll stay off until Sunday, a full 7/7.
Crazy weekend again, bachelorette party...eating out...etc.
It is really good to be back at work to start over a new week, and get back into a routine.

Tulip- I knew you had a different date for Mother's Day, but I didn't know when it was. My husband is from England, and his family still lives there, but he tends to forget holidays and important dates (normal, since he is a boy ). Last year, he sent his mom a gift in May and wished her "Happy American Mother's Day." He's just hopeless

Thanks for the link. I'll have to check that out. Maybe one day I'll be able to go into a store and buy a bra, but for now, even having a few options of where to shop is a good thing I went to Victoria's Secret once, and the crazy saleswoman asked me what size bra I wear, I told her, and she just burst out laughing (no, I didn't smack her, but I was tempted.) Then she went into her sales speech and took measurements in the middle of the floor over all of my clothes and insisting I wore a DD (since that is the largest size they carry at the store). Now, I know that I haven't been a DD since I was about 16, but I humored her since I'd love to be able to actually go into a store and buy a bra that fits. I tried on the size she insisted I must be, and of course, I was spilling over the top and out of the bottom. I guess there are some benefits to not needing to deal with the crazy VS sales ladies.

well today is day 1 for me, no not a diet, exercise or scaling (lol, I cant stay off mine) but day 1 of being home ALONE with the kids all day- YES, hubby has gone back to work...needless to say, it HAD to rain today and be all MUDDY out when I took cam to school (pre-school) and it was partially snowing (UGH!!) SI FAR WHAT A DAY...wow, venting made me feel so much better right now...aw, thanks!

My scale loves me too much ...this morning it said 122.4 ...I think someone may have moved it or something....or it was feeling bad for me...lol, who knows- I gave it a hug though.

Hotsplashes- sorry to hear you are working so hard, but sounds promising on a loss for ya!

Tulip- I had NO idea England had a different holiday than US...weird...I've been reading the "shopaholic" books by Sophie Kinsella, and all are set in England and the way she describes things makes it sound like another world....(but remember I live in the middle of no where right now-ha)

KT- lol, everything goes out the window at a bachelorette party, hope you had FUN FUN FUN!!

Ok, I am off to the gym to run when hubby gets home...nap time didnt last very long today so he can deal with them at "cranky before supper time"
