Your pics keep getting more spectacular, Tete! Wow! :D

Rosie is right - you really do look like you're in your 20's again!! :D

Maintenance calories have got me a bit grumpy as well. Hell, I haven't even technically reached maintenance mode, but I feel like it's all I can to just stabilize my weight fluctuations :(

You're doing great though. Even with the Burger King treats, I'd probably be up 3-4 pounds the following morning. My body just seems to hoard that stuff nowadays. So good for you for only seeing 1 measly pound of water weight - which you'll get rid of in no time!

Anyway, love the pics and the socks (lol!) as well :)

Oh and.. what the heck is that weather pic?? What?!

I freaked a little and checked my local weather. So far, its nothing but cloudiness. No mention of snow, but that pic you posted, my area (Adams County) is roughly located right under where the blue 'Weather Channel' logo is in your pic.

Hrmpf. Better not see any of that white stuff! It's almost May for goodness sake!

Thanks Frogged!!! Glad the white stuff passed you up!! It was nuts...we are suppose to get some more tomorrow...a flurry or two..but still...its almost freaking MAY!!!

Glad you enjoy my socks...I must get a pedi before my next weight in pic!! lol.

and this freaking water weight is hell!! I just look at salt or have something bad and I blow up like a balloon!! I always thought people lied when they said it was harder to lose the last 20 or so...it freaking sucks!!!!!!!!!!!! O' well my forum buddy...we will keep on keepin won't we :)

Hi girls, I've stopped weighing myself you know why? Coz it'll drive you crazy, looking and being anxious of what the scale shows and then depressed afterwards if it doesn't show what you THOUGHT it should've.  Keep exercising and being mindful of what you eat (is a big factor) now you're not going to be perfect so don't expect it.

I've been reading y'alls threads and I think you both have come a long way, keep it up and please PLEASE stop being so doggone hard on yourselves!

You are so right...but you know we are are own worse critics....its so hard to enjoy the successes when you want so so much more!! Thanks for the reminder to slow down and enjoy it!!

AI ate 2700 plus calories yesterday...WHY??? I showed a loss on the scale...was down a pound and I still ate like a pig!! I swear this weight loss crap is messed up.....shouldn't seeing a loss make you more determined to not eat unhealthy!!
