I hadn't thought of that. And I've already lost a pound since Friday YAY! I can't decide whether to get cans of dog/cat food or to save up my pounds and get dry...which is better for them I'm sure. I think I'll do both One can for every pound I lose so I can see them stacking up and then at the end get some dry food too to take in. Yea I'm doing great even though I'm not doing it perfect...it's amazing. In fact I checked the scale this morning and I've lost another pound since Friday in spite of my chinese food yesterday. Of course as much walking as we did yesterday I'm pretty sure that offset my calorie overage. Which in itself is great because a cheat day to me used to mean eat everything in sight and the calories would be more like 5000, not only 500 over normal, lol. So one more pound and I'll be at 30 pounds lost I bet I can do it this week for sure. Well I'm off to class, catch ya'll later.
! Have you tried the Jello shakes or steam bags yet? I haven't logged in since 10/17 so I may have missed your update 
Thanks for stoppin by to check on me Buckeye and Kristi
It really is 30 pounds now...well 30.2 Well done Lisa!!! 30 pounds is a fantastic loss!!! You have rocketed past me
I don't think I passed you up though considering I have alot more to lose. But yea I'm really starting to get excited and believing for the first time I'm going to do this and keep it off. So can't wait to take off another 30...would be nice if I could step it up and do another 20 before Christmas I'm so busy I know I won't do cardio every day but I do get alot of walking in now on campus. I think I'm going to start with a small goal and tell myself I have to get on the exercise bike 3-4x a week...then work up. I seem to do better with lower goals. Then I want to do more so I feel I made a good choice and did extra. I know I always say it means alot but it really does...it reinforces it so much more when I do make a goal having people to share it with that understand and are proud of me. Hard to do that with other people who aren't trying to lose weight...I don't really TELL people...it's more just wait for people to notice. And then some people if they know you're losing weight try to sabotage...I'm sure everyone knows how that goes. So this forum is really my only outlet for this. And you guys are all awesome 
) I'm glad you officially lost 30 lbs now. with your plans for adding a bit more exercise in I'm sure you'll be able to lose a good bit of weight between now and x-mas. it's easy to come on here and support and congratulate someone as fantastic as you Lisa(even though I wasn't mentioned in your post.
Take care. ciao bella.
I don't think you or Karl hardly miss a day so don't know what I'd do without you!
