songbyrdsweet you are BUFF
I am having flash backs of when my husband was doing bodybuilding. I just saw your pictures. That is hard work and dedication. Cheers to you. I remember helping my husband get ready for the shows. 14 weeks of HELL for me. The diet, the bad moods, the almost divorce with each show and the painting on the tan. I must say, I…

Crazy scales!
So, a few years ago I bought a digital scale - one of the WeightWatchers ones with the body fat calculator. I figured WW is such a big brand that it ought to be reasonably accurate. But it's totally crazy! It's sticky - it seems to "remember" the last weight it gave me and stick with that one for a while. But I can step on…

A first for me!
Okay so this week my girly is here. Well, for the first time EVER I can look in the mirror and not say, "I'm so fat!" Every month I would get bloated and feel SO big. I guess I've lost enough weight that my "skinny" jeans still fit and I just don't feel like I look fat! It's awesome! It gives me motivation to keep…

I didn't eat any chips..
As a child, whenever we were sick my mom would always have a bowl of salty chips for us. It's so psychological for me as an adult because every single time I get a cold, I want my plain ruffle chips! I'm not going to lie, I wanted them but I didn't have any, not even one. This is huge for me. Yeah baby!
