Just not much to write about lately, Liz. I've been fairly busy, as well.
Broski has lost 30 lbs and we're all pretty excited about that. The real joy is his bigger portion of weight loss has happened at home. It's pretty easy to say he's very encouraged, as well seemingly committed to his reduction/life change.
Sure, we in this business we know one month isn't much of a long term sample however it's a great start. Yesterday at my nephew's BD party, everyone commented on his loss.
Now that the verbal and visual is in play, I hope (and I'm sure) it is taking a momentus effect on his long term game plan.
As for me, I think I've resigned to the fact that I'm in the ball park where I need to be. Don't look for anything great from me. It's time to ease up on the mental torture of 'being something I'm not ever going to be'.
I really doubt I'll be putting much more time into my diary, also. WLF has served me well but it's gone about as far as I care to do 'the diary thing'.
My accountability will continue to be an everyday part of my life, in weight loss and so much more. That's the beauty having accomplished what I've done, it sets the post straight up in the air to build whatever is I have designed. Having said that, my post are firmly planted and now I'm in a less crucial 'design stage' than I was previously.
I just want to get on with my life. Don't interpret my boredom with diarying as "He's gained _____ lbs back". Nope. That's not the case.
Look for me when you least expect it.
Thanks to those who played with me for two of the best years of my life.
May your life changes be as good to you as they were for me. I do mean that from my heart, even to the ones that can't get it right. Just keep trying until you feel the rewards of trading terrible food and lack of exercise for embarrassment, suffering and poor health.
There is no 'secret', only commitment.
Peacebye.

I understand why you don't want to keep a diary, but stop by and say hello every now and then. Feels like we're losing a good friend. Sad really. It's people like you who make this forum what it is, pretty special.
I am happy to hear your brother is doing good with the weight loss. 30 pounds is amazing.
Take care Trucka. It's ok to sneak by my diary, I won't tell anyone. haha

hi stranger. it's done. you know what i mean. just this week. finally.
i gained a few lbs this past six months, but still look good in jeans and boots, and just started running again, so it will come back off i know.
started taking dance lessons and go at least once or twice a week (when i'm sans kids) - country and west coast swing.
still travelling everywhere, but get to work from home much more now, which is muy nice. took off this whole week and chilled with the kiddos.
i hear ya on not coming here much any more. i was thinking about coming back, but maybe just to post my stats for personal use. not on the computer much these days for personal use (on it for work lots though).

What MissJelly said. It is kinda like loosing a friend whos somehow now too good for us.
I agree on the unrealistic goals thing, i keep going mad at myself to get to the next size down, when in fact half the reason i never get there is because im actually fairly satsfied with what im at right now, those last few lb.
Good on your brother though - 30lb is a good start, lets just hope he keeps up with it!

Hey kids, just swinging by because I felt like it. Yeah, see, less than a month 
I'm a weak, weak man
Here's the skinny on me lately. I was down for a week (yeah, I got cut open - again), took a vacation in Ohio for a week, and rode my fucking ass off the other two weeks.
I set a new weekly record this week with 140 miles and I'll add to that tomorrow if the weather cooperates.
18 of my 25 'winter' pounds are gone, so far. I've been eating like a weight loss champ. Nothing but fresh fruit for snacks however the vacation week was a struggle. The choices weren't always the best but I controlled volume every stop on the road. I lightly leaned on the pleasure and dismissed the guilt. It worked out ok.
lmao Liz. How can I 'be too good for y'all' ?? You have the custom title, not me !! Nice avvie, btw. Your saddle appreciates your thin body, I'm sure
oooh Patty !! yes I have your addy and I did see you pop on msn a time or two but you poofed quickly so I figured it was a false alarm or a tease
eh, you look good in anything.
MJB !! nice hooters !! oh, and bullshit, you'd tell on me for lurking your diary, I just know it. This is what females do. Am I right ?? or am I right !! missu
ah, and Korrie. Still here keeping law and order, I see
Next time I'll get your permission to leave, ok ?? I hope all is well in your world.
nice sig, btw
That's all for now. See ya all later.
Happy weight losing !!
oh, and Mal, you rawk !!

I wouldn't tell, but you never know who might be peaking at my diary. You might get busted. LOL
Team Hooters is going to Vegas! LOL
Great job with the weight loss and biking. Look at you, doing it all stealth like.

Sniff sniff... I didn't get a shout out :-(
You'd be proud, too, I did another 20 miles on the bike yesterday.

Stopping in to say hi, Randy. I'm finally climbing out of the black hole that gripped me--but while I was down there, I stopped working out and gained some weight back. Now, I'm trying to look forward and do something about it and not beat myself up for what it was.
Hope things are good with you.

Yep, that's me - Mr. Flying Under The Radar. Ah, busted ya say ?? strip search follows ?? count me in *grins big*
lol yeah the cycle seat is much better to a lighter ass!
hows the brother doing? good to see you moving em winter lb - ive been gaining em! :O
The new saddle is a blessing !! I'm much enjoying bike riding more with it.
Broski is diagnosed with cirrhosis (NASH version). I don't know what to say about all this. As it's been told to me, (like it usually is) a lot depends how he treats his body with food and exercise to prolong life, should he jump back into that way of life and effort.
Things haven't gone real well in that dept, tho.
I'm sorry
I'll bawl someone out in the Oversight Committee Meeting. Heads will ROLL !! You have my word on that.Well look at you gearing up on your bike skills - that's just awesome !!
Hi handsome!
Hi Good Lookin' !! *notes the slenderer avvie - and smiles widely in doing so*
Well I missed the Vegas thing *pouts* No one would ever have to twist my arm to go to Vegas !! *picks more Powerball numbers*
heya Randy, sorry i missed ya the other day online - you got me on a bad day (at work fixing everyone elses breakages whilst sick and drugged to my eyeballs lol).
And as for your going great guns - i expected nothing less from you
Never a problem, Liz. I'm jealous you have drugs and I don't but I don't envy you fixing everyone's shit. Hate on the breakers !!
Bethann !! Hi !!
Nice to see Hell didn't wanna keep you. Welcome back to the surface.
I reckon I could easily share this summer hasn't gone according to plan, also. Hey, we all have our reasons but the mere fact that you and I are still here and talking about getting shit done is a testament to the conscience level we possess.
Over two years into this now and I now know that carrying a master plan too tightly is beyond reasonable at times and one needs to just go with the flow; not to say 'ye abandon all hope who enter here' but the entry level consistency I preached vs. the point I'm at now 'down the road' are largely different.
What I'm saying is I'll probably never live another day without thinking about the rights and wrongs of what we do. My early pressure and mental reconfiguring is paying off even on days or even weeks when things aren't up to spec.
Enjoy life and enjoy your cognizant even more, it'll all come together, I promise
______
I updated my mileage. I would have hoped I was over the 1000 mile range now. As I see it, I'm behind. I haven't weighed in in awhile, clothes are ok, I'd say I'm about 10 lbs behind the point I was last year at this time.
I have a wide open month ahead and if the rain would ease up a bit, I could pwn my mileage again.
Till next time, Peace and Hugs.

Hey! Thanks for popping in!!
Loved the Photo. Did I tell you a story about that? I must have mentioned a nurse story or two. tsk tsk.
You can still go to Vegas. I think we have another person on here just meeting us there to hang out. You're a gambling man, eh?
