Well I didn't do as well as I had thought I did I lost .6lbs but it is still a loss and I am not bothered by it being so little because I feel great and I can see a difference in my clothes so that is what matters most.

Robin - great job! I was going to tell you that early, most times when you think you did SO great, it barely shows up, then when you least expect it you lose 2 lbs or something. I think I really messed myself up this weekend. I got on the scale this evening...I think it was up a little. So I totally expect a little gain this week.

Steph & Bina ~ One of the things that annoys me about being the weight that I am (which is my heaviest ever) was that that the toe ring I have worn for 10 freakin’ years was getting uncomfortable! I was just shocked and dismayed that even my toes are showing the weight gain. Erg.

Robin ~ Jenna’s right, a loss is a loss, congrats!!!

Laura ~ I'm doing okay...Saturday and Sunday I didn't keep track of what I ate, but I don't think I did too bad. I was really curious Sunday morning and I weighed myself and lost 3 lbs! But Wednesday morning it will be a week. Last night, I went with Cap'n to see Batman and there was a special that if you brought your ticket stubs to Chipotle Grill, you got a free burrito, so I had my burrito thinking, that my 13 points left for the day would cover it. WRONG! The burrito was around 20 points! So, in a nutshell, still chugging along. Tomorrow, I'm going to go get spanx.

What the heck is Spanx? Spank what?

Not working out today. Too much to do to get ready for the dumb party tomorrow. I will hopefully get alot done today so I can go to my cycling class tomorrow but hopefully I will get in a run or power walk with the stroller later today worse case scenerio. But I have ALOT to do so who knows. Anyone else thinks everything in their house need to be replaced? Ever have those moods? My walls need painting due to the kids, the floors need replacing...the wood in the kitchen is HORRIBLE from the previous owners....UGh. I am worrying when I shouldn't worry. It is what it is but I am sure we all have those days especially when you have a TON of women coming the next day. I did get new flowers for the front pots and made a new wreath lastnight for the front door so that looks better now. Save the drama for your momma right?

Karen - I am sure everything will fall right into place and your party will be perfect!

I am having a whole wheat Bagal this morning with light cream cheese. It's Yummy! I have a cube steak and red beans (no rice) for lunch. Other than that I have some WW Yogurt and a Plum to snack on. Oh and a WW blueberry Muffin. We will probably have beans for supper and I might do a corn bread or baked potato with that.

Girls, I have been BAD BAD BAD and now the scale is up a pound. I just haven't been very motivated. I didn't work out yesterday and then bought a twix at CVS and felt guilty for eating it. I really only need to lose 5lbs or so, but I just can't seem to get serious about it.
Today is a new day right?


Robin-WTG, you are doing great! All those losses are adding up to one BIG loss!

We're going to lunch at Macaroni Grill today for a coworker's birthday. My goal is to just half the portion and save the rest for tomorrow's lunch.

Bina that is a plan and hey to help yourself out go to their website and look at the calories..I guarantee you will then be less tempted. DH told me one day that his Men's Health said that Macaroni Grill is the highest in sodium content of any restaurant??? That will blow you up quick. Okay now that I messed that all up for you...

Steph - Hey GIRL! Just needed to say that. I am freakin over here and procrastinating. Get me in gear will ya?? UGH

I went to my GYN yesterday and they weighed me at about 5 pounds more than my ticker says which is actually okay because my home scales are FREAKING stupid. SO I have to readjust my ticker to my actual weight.

Bina - I always try to check out the menu online like Karen suggested. It makes it easier to pick something if you have some idea on the number of calories that each entree contains. GL!

Robin - YAY to clothes NOT fitting!

Karen - Of course YOU wouldn't know what Spanx are LOL! They are shapers that you wear under your clothes if I am right (I am cheap so I don't buy them even though I could use some extra help ).

Claire - How are things going with you?

I have hated the idea of coming back on this thread but I feel a little better since I have a better idea on how much I really weigh. I need better clothes...nothing really flatters my figure (too frumpy looking). Okay....off to change my ticker. UGHHHH!

Kayla - BUUUUTTTTTTTT you will not beable to weigh on your doctors scale weekly. SO you need to get you a new scale and just follow that!!! I have to step on mine let it weigh me. Get off let it clear and get back on and it gives me my actual weight. I've checked it on 2 other scales.
