Scarlett's Diary - Tomorrow is another day

Must be really nice to see all your hard work paying off in such meaningful ways. I'm so happy for you. Keep the faith. You will get where you want to be. Look how far you have come so far. Your on the last stretch.

I can totally relate about the new car thing. I didn't trade in my old car when I bought the last one because I didn't want my dogs in it. I called the old car, "the dog van" I just took my big dog in my car for the first time yesterday and I have had it for 1.5yrs. I still don't like parking next to people!
 
You are doing great Scarlett. The time it takes is worth it. After all, its a life-style change, and anyone who is fit and healthy, knows its an ongoing thing to maintain it. So you're putting in the hard yards now, and maintenance will be a walk in the park or a piece of cake ( funny how it all relates to food and exercise) xxxxx
 
gosh you have lost a heck of a lot of weight....puts my 30lbs to shame...;)

you are right about the changing shape, the scales begin to mean less and less, it is all about how you feel and the toning of everything....people actually call me skinny now and I never thought that would happen....lol

You are doing so great, keep it up!

Another blessing is that I have a lot more confidence in myself. I don't ever stand in front of my closet and get panicked or teary eyed because I look like crap in everything. My husband says I even carry myself differently now.

So I'm trying to stay positive and not get discouraged. This has not been a quick journey, I've been working on this for almost two years. I know it takes time and patience. And lots more treadmilling!!! LOL!!! Which I will be doing here shortly. Thank goodness for netflix, I would be lost without my exercise entertainment.

I posted when I first got here that I have a 2 1/2 year goal. I think "Man that's a long way off", but seeing you post this reminds me how worth it, it'll be. I bet you do carry yourself differently. I know that even with my limited success there's a spring in my step. You're doing great and you're inspiring the heck out of the rest of us.
 
Oh Scarlett! You are such an inspiration and positive voice for the rest of us. Don't let a little bump in the road get you discouraged. We are all here to CHEER you on and keep you motivated. We live in an immediate gratification society and when things take a long time...many people tend to give up. But not you...you have stuck in there and seen dramatic changes and I know you can keep it up! We got your back GIRL!
 
Hi everyone, just getting ready to leave the office but wanted to pop in and say hi and pass out a big group hug to everyone. Thanks so much for checking in on my and for your kindness which never fails to lift my spirits in more ways than I can describe.

I just stumbled across the calore calculator that spelin had in her diary and I can't wait to get home and plug in some figures and maybe come up with a plan for moving forward. Bless you spelin!!!!

Hope you are all keeping well and staying safe!
 
ever hear the expression you reap what you sow... you get kindness back because you give so much of it... you're an awesome lady... :D
 
Lol i suspect those calculators are out a tad
One of them told me i was 40% fat and my fat weighed 60kg(possible) and i had 246kg of lean

hmm 246kg of lean mass? hang on! im not even half that weight! lol
 
Well, I've researched this cycling calorie plan and I'm going with it. I've lost two pounds since Monday so it must be doing something!! And it's TOM week on top of that!!

I feel like I've gotten that jumpstart that I needed and it's given me renewed excitement about my weight loss. Yay!!!!

Hope everyone has a great day.
 
Hey, that's so great you found a new plan to get your weight moving above a snails speed again. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.
 
Just dropping in to say hello luv and say thanks for dropping in on me. Take a big breath and refocus on what you want. If your starting to get a bit lost Wright yourself a list and stick to it, I have found it helps a lot. Have a wonderful week.
 
Hey Scarlett I'm pleased to hear of your new plan to get loosing quicker. I think I need to start looking out the same as I have slowed down serously grrrr.

I hope you had a lovely weekend, it was nice and sunny here in Falkirk so I hope you got some nice weather too.:)
 
Hey y'all! Not much going on in my little world. Been doing my new calorie cycling plan. The next few months are going to be extremely busy. I've got three sets of overseas company coming. One set for a week, one set for twelve days and one set for a week. Phew!! Then it will be time for Thanksgiving and then Christmas. These next few months are going to fly.

Hope everyone is having a great day!!!! Take Care!
