Love my hubby...but would love to turn a head or two again....

I'm with you, I enjoy weighing myself - never in the evening though. It's pure curiosity, if I wake up at a crazy hour I usually get up, weigh, do whatever, than go back to bed, and weigh again when I wake up again, loool.
 
Fair play on doing a mate a favour and congrats on the weight loss upto date :)

Thanks :)

I weight myself a lot...I mean a lot...two or three times a day...I think for me it keeps me honest....there was a time not to long ago ..I didn't weight myself on purpose just because I couldn't bear to see the number...and that's how I put on this 20 pounds from 200 up to 220... my highest weight ever!!

I understand and I'm a spreadsheet junkie too so I keep all types of list and excel sheets... that's its the long haul...but for me...seeing the daily number and fluctuation is a reminder of how far I have come and how very far I have to go.....
 
Wow, congrats! The lightest in seven years - that is awesome! You're doign so well. Can't wait to see your 'official' weigh in after your ankles stop swelling :)

Thanks for the support!!

Yahoooo! 192! You know that's only three away from the 180s! :) you can DO IT!

I know I am so excited...I could be 189..buy SUNDAY'S weight in..omg!! I am so gonna work my butt off this week!! I want my July goal of 185 so bad!!
 
:D Woooooohoooooooooooooooo! All your hard work is paying off big time, WELL DONE!!!

I love all your photos of your niece, she is so beautiful. I especially love the one of her smelling the rose, with just a hint of colour on the rose and her make-up.

It was really nice of you to do the wedding pics for free :)
 
:) Thanks rainbow...I like the editing part of photography....I like it as a hobby and nothing more...I don't have the displine to learn the principles...maybe when I am 135 pounds ...I 'll have mastered some self control and I can apply it to photography...haha

so if I am not on for a few days or so....I am still here...I swear...but life got in the way this week and I had two uncles pass away...I know what are the chances...one was an uncle by marriage on my dads side he suffered a heart attack and the other my mums baby brother....he battled MS for 25 years....so sad.

We also have a extended weekend trip planned to Hershey Amusement Park....so pray for me...haha...I love love love that cheap cheap chocolate....who decides to go on a trip to a park based on chocolate...when trying to lose weight...O I did!

Wishing all my forum buddies great success for the week...talk to u soon :) :)

So still on track with the eating..... actually to low for a few days.....only exercised Monday, did five miles...hoping to get at least a DVD in tomorrow morning before I start my non stop running around like a crazy lady for the next 4 days!!!!

So you know how we all have "funeral" clothes...standard outfits that are comfy and classy and can go from year to year....Well.... I DONT FIT IN MINE!! and I mean in the good way!! They are too big...I had to go out and buy a few new blouses (Size 16-18..these damn boobs..) and a new pair of black trousers (12-14 Large Petite) ...and to top it all off...I didn't have to shop in plus size...It felt wonderful...kinda of weird that I was so happy in a dressing room for a change...then the guilt set in..how can I be happy..its so wrong to be happy...I am shopping for funeral clothes..what a day of emotion!! :angelsad2:

One more thing....I really really want a SNICKERS CANDY BAR...they are my favorite....I mean MY VERY favorite out of anything...there were some days not so long ago I ate 3 a day some days..yes 3 full size candy bars a day..omg how sad..so much I named my westie/poodle/schnauzer mix "Snickers"...but that was then this is now..and I can resist for a bit...but I think I will go hug and kiss my sweet "Snickers" for awhile....

Well done on the weight loss! 28lbs is kicking some butt!! And although very sad circumstances, it must have felt satisfying to be shopping for smaller clothes!

Keep it up! You'll be in the 180s before you know it.
 
:):) 191.2 today....it getting close :) :)

......well off for a stress reducing walk...then 2 hour drive to uncles viewing..other uncles was yesterday/last nite...then home to pack...then 3 hour drive in the opposite direction to Amish Country..aka Lancaster PA.

Looking forward to seeing my sister-in-law and her family...we have full weekend planned.

....Friday nite with Harry Potter at the IMAX theather...I can't wait! I am such a "pott head"..just finished Deathly Hallows on Audio Book for the 10th time to get refreshed...but I'll be bitching the whole time cause the movies are never as good.

....then Saturday we are off to Hershey Park...I dieters hell! Reese Cups..Hershey Kisses...Chocolate... Chocolate and more chocolate...O and they have some awesome roller costers and rides too...forgot thats why we are going.

...then Sunday we say good bye via a fabulous massive county :piggy: breakfast at some wonderful tacky and kitchy local establisment.

Sounds like this is going to be a good weekend to test the will power and my resolve to get heathly and HOT!! haha :biggrinjester:
 
Congrats on you weight loss!!!GETTI|NG| CLOSER!Thats great!!so happy for u!!!!
THe hershey thing sounds evil,omg,just thinking of it is bad.Good luck and stay strong!
Your Doggie is so sweet!!!Love dogs,love hersheys , love snickers and mars bars but most of all i love Twix....Bad thoughts are entering my mind right now!!!

:EVIL:
 
192.6...today...ugh...I know its because I probably had only 40 ounces of liquid yesterday (20 oz water...20 oz of diet cola) and ate fast food twice...but was still in my calorie ranges....I won't be able to flush my system today either....traveling again....hubby and sons would not be happy with pee breaks every twenty minutes..haha

O well off to pack...have a great weekend everyone :)
 
HAVE FUN!!!!!

I'm potty about potter too! i'm going to watch the first part of the deathly hallows again tonight, then I think tomorrow I'll go and see the second part. I'm so sad its over, it can't be true!

Good luck with dealing with the junk situation! Just try not to go overboard with it, I don't want you to throw your healthy etaing completely off track. I did that with my weekend, and it sucks.

And the funeral, and you finally getting into size 14-16 trousers, are two unrelated events, and you shouldn't feel guilty about being happy x You are doing really bloody well :D
 
ok...that weekend is in the past....yes it was a bad bad bad one...O well...we will see the damage tomorrow for my official weigh-in.....but more good days than bad days is what I am aiming for...and I will get there no matter what....my attitiude is totally different this time....before if I went off the wagon for a weekend...it would turn in to the whole week...which would turn into the month and before I knew it...6 months or a year past and I didn't change a thing....NOT THIS TIME...the weekend is past and I will be back on track on MONDAY!!

We had a wonderful weekend with my sister-in-law and family...my nephews are rollercoaster lovers like me and my youngest and we got to ride all the big crazy ones....had a blast....my SIL was scared shitless..because I was taking her babys on them...I laughed non stop...its fun being an aunt with some energy for change.

On a different note...we were waiting to get on this ride called the Claw its a "spider" looking ride that flips and tosses and spins you all around...great fun...well something very very sad and happened that has been one of my biggest fears...a lady was asked to leave the ride because she was to large to fit in the harness properly...It was so sad...I teared up honestly...thinking it could have been me...220 pounds could have been just 10 or 15 short of not fitting...it broke my heart and made my resolve stronger to never put myself in that postion again...to be afraid that I wouldn't fit in a ride....I am happy to say I fit just fine...but its still on my mind to look at others getting off rides to see if they are my size and then hoping I will fit...I wonder when that will go away...or if it will ever go away????????

So its a bit grainy..its from my cell..but these are the loves of my life....we had a great day and I am truly a blessed person...I have to admit my legs are looking sweet...joke...all that walking...I hope the belly follows next..ugh!
