Lagniappe's Journal: Yikes. I'm FAT!

Have been off for a bit just dealing with life. Decorating for xmas, that kind of thing. I do go overboard, always, when it comes to decorating for the holidays. Anyway, I've lost whatever weight I put on over thanksgiving and during the process of getting control again, so now I'm just back to focusing on getting back into the "swing" of healthy eating. I'm adjusting my goals again to something more realistic. I'd like to hit 185 by xmas and I think that should be easy IF I just stay away from the wine and popcorn!

Hope you are all doing well in your quests :)
 
Hey girl,
good on you for losing the Post Turkey Day weight. As for your goal, it seems realisitic and I have not doubt in my mind you'll achieve it. However, it's alright to eat popcorn and drink wine. Just fit it into your calories for the day. It's all about moderations and enjoying yourself during the holidays, doll. :D I hope you have a grand holiday season.

Amen Sheryl. ;)

Hi ya doll!

We have missed you. :hug2:

That's so great you lost the weight and are now back on track.

Great! :party:
 
Hi

I agree with the others. We all have moments when we splurge (lets face it - constant self-denial is no fun) - and the ticker heads in the wrong direction - but it is great when we get it back off again. Well done!

As far as wine goes - some doctors say that a little red wine can be quite beneficial to your health, and the calories can be earned by exercise like any others.

I am sure that with a little determination and planning you can attain your Christmas goal - and enjoy yourself a little on the way there.

Take care
Love
Margaret

Hiya Lagniappe!
I just started catching up on journals. With Finals and Christmas decorating I kind of neglected the weight loss forum as well and I need to jump back on track.. I think its awesome! you loss your Turkey day weight! :) and I am so stoked you have set such a great goal ...
185 is totally reasonable .. I gained three pounds and some odd oz ... but I plan to get back on track ...
Have a great Holiday hun and Happy new Year!
I will probably drop in before the New Year, but I figured I would start wishes everyone a Happy New Year early ...
so hun ..heres to you ... Cheers!

Just calling in to wish you a merry Christmas. :party:
I am not losing weight at the minute - but know that things will get back to normal as soon as new year is over and things can get back to business as usual.

Take care
Love
