Hello everyone! My computer is working! Awesome! Like you said Gail, isn't it something how much we rely on our computers. When it is gone, you really see.
Gail, good job on succeeding with your personal challenges. You are doing so good and that is so encouraging. It is very nice to be working alongside others that are determined and working hard. That is excellent. Keep up the good work! 3.5 lbs!!! OMG, you RAWK!!! That is AWESOME! You are working so hard and it is paying off. That is wonderful. Keep doing what you are doing because it is definitely working for you.
SAHM, how are you doing with those personal challenges? I would love to hear. Those are really good challenges. It's amazing how hard it can be to eat breakfast sometimes. Here we are trying to lose weight, but don't eat breakfast.
It's a wonderful step in the right direction, so keep at it and you will reach your goals. It may take a little longer than we would like, but it will happen.
Norma, I am sorry about the scale, but you know that I am right there with you. You've already let us know at the outset that your weight loss will be slow, so you recognize that and that is a good thing. You are making healthier choices and that is the most important thing. Those changes are going to make a happier and healthier you in the long run, so try your best to stick with it. The temptation may be there to just throw in the towel and concede that you will not lose weight. If you get a chance go back a few posts and look at my last Pump Talk! Giving up is not an option for you Norma. You are doing wonderful things for yourself and not only will it pay off in the future, it is paying off now. Your body thanks you everyday for the positive changes and choices that you are making. Please don't give up! You will reach your goals. I am happy to hear that the new scale came and lifted your spirts. However, if you are feeling down, definitely post. That way we can all chime in and support you. Don't give up, Norma.
Amanda, sorry that you were having such a tough time. I tell ya, 1 thing can happen and it can just throw your whole day out of whack! Great goals that you have and so happy to see that you didn't let those obstacles get you off track. That is the most important thing, right? Not letting any obstacles stand in your weigh
of a happier healthier you. Each of us are worth being happier and healthier, but I think sometimes we just forget that or life keeps us so busy that we feel we can't. Anyways, great job and so glad to hear your success.
Trish, hey Trish, howya doin'? Last time I talked to you, you were losing and that is wonderful. Pop in anytime you like and tell us of your successes or just to say Hi. Good to see ya!

CONSISTENCY!! Yeah, we all know how important consistency is, but knowing doesn't make it any easier. Did you know that according to sources, if you stick with something for just 3 weeks, it becomes a habit? Everyone that decided to participate in the personal challenges, do you think that you can give each of your goals 3 weeks of consistency? That's just 21 days! You can do it! Those healthy choices are going to affect your mood, your health and how you feel. So come on Shrinking Misfits, let's make those changes stick. Let's be CONSISTENT!
thats really good.
anyway, have a Fantastic Friday and a wonderful weekend!
