I threw food away!
I don't know why it's so hard for me to do this. I feel like I'm wasting food if I don't eat it all. Where do you suppose that comes from? It's not my upbringing, so I have no idea. Here's the story...yesterday was my bday and my friends came over to celebrate. They brought a yummy chocolate cake. I couldn't' convince them…

A lump! I have a lump on my right lower back and I just got it checked out by my doctor. It seemed to happen after playing tennis last Sunday and maybe using some muscles that I don't normally use.

Saggin Baggin Megan
So other than my excitement over my 1st 5 pounds gone, I don't often post about my weight loss. However, I would like to proudly say I am officially the worst dresser I know thanks to a 12 pound loss so far :drinker: Even right out of the dryer (when pants fit the best) I still have to wear a belt (on the 4th hole now,…

How may days do you...
maintain a weight before logging it in? what I mean is how long do you wait to make sure that you have actually lost the weight before recording it? I do not want to jump the gun and record a weight only to gain it back again. I just wanted to see what others did. Thanks:flowerforyou:

Small Successes
I had been at 1850 net calories (to lose 1 lb a week) since I joined in June. I went back through today and it's now 1820. And my exercises are netting fewer calories burned for the same time. It may seem small, but needing fewer calories and burning fewer for the same work means I'm making progress. And that is good for…

Not Sure If This Counts...
But this morning, whilst getting ready for Church, I noticed that my belt was just too loose? Huh? I actually had to have the most beautiful woman I know punch in a couple of new holes for me, to make it fit snug again! Please tell me that leather doesn't stretch like old skin, or blue jeans.

Small success to share!
I'm in my SIL's wedding at the end of September. I got the dress 2 weeks ago and my husband could hardly zip it up until I held my boobs to my chin. I tried it on today and it fit so much better! He had no trouble at all zipping it! I'm so excited. Thanks for letting me share! Heidi
