    JimJam, we are very accountable to each other so welcome!

    cnbethea, sounds like you got back on track. Can't wait to see those pics and that smile on your face!

    I got to the gym today for 30 min of elliptical. I love the elliptical. I told my husband to buy me one for home. :blushing: I drank a ton of water and ate very little sodium so I am ready to weigh in tomorrow. Now I just need a good night's sleep. See ya tomorrow.

    I'm down another pound - which means I've lost nine instead of seven :smile:

    Great job Tiara!!! Way to DO IT!!

    I am a bit disappointed to say (translate that as GRRRR!) that I am up 1.5 this week. I had a fabulous week with eating. On target with my calories all week, no crazy splurges. Worked out every day. I DID eat some treats I guess... ice cream and zucchini bread once or twice. But I was within my cals.

    Ah well, enough negativity right? Let me celebrate my successes for the month. I definitely am toning up! As I was at Zumba the other night, I was right in front of the mirror wall, and I could see my muscles flexing in my legs, and they actually looked pretty good :). That's an accomplishment, because my legs are def one of the things I like the least on my body.

    Another success- mastery of my sense of fullness! I have stopped eating when I am full! (GASP!) Several times at restaurants over the last week, I just STOPPED when I was full. Sounds so simple, but I struggle with that so badly! Because it's so gooood, and I have this clean my plate/don't waste food mentality. I am so guilty of just eating to the point of total discomfort.

    I MIGHT reweigh tomorrow. I am undecided. I also did lift yesterday, and I am a little stiff, so I know that means I am retaining water in those muscles. We'll see. I want my August goal to be accurate. This month looks skewed due to the 4.4 I gained at the end of June. I really am only down 2.3 overall for the month. BUT, that's still closer than I was :)

    Well I only lost .6 for the whole mnth but the good news is I did see 159.6 0n the scale a few days ago but TOM is here and I went up a lil but atleast I know it's possible again because man it's been since March!! Also I lost 2 weeks in a row that's a first in a long while too so I am finally back in the groove of things!! Bring on August I am really ready I will be weighing on Sunday morning to start the month off but my new official weigh in day will be on Friday's!!

    Well, I can't believe I didn't post yesterday. I lost that pesky last pound for July. Yay!!
    I have been extrememly stressed at work. Reporting deadlines! I am finally done but today was also our month-end lunch. We had pasta, lots of pasta! Then Tiramisu after. It was in recognition for the awesome month we had and how hard we all worked. I ate way over 1 portion and it was all creamy. I ate bruschetta and a big honkin' piece of tiramisu. If ever there was a cheat day!!! I drank soooo much water and now I need to workout if I want to hold on the this loss.

    Jessica: That really sucks that you gained. It doesn't seem right and certainly not fair. I'm glad you're not getting down about it.

    cnbethea: You are always so positive, it's hard to believe that you aren't losing more. It's hard when TOM comes at the end of a goal. I'm sure it'll go away next week.

    Oooh Eboni I LOVE tiramisu!! Creamy pasta always makes me sick, but I would have been all over the bruschetta too! A big honkin piece, LMAO. That sounds like something I would say :)

    Cnbethea- I am so glad you saw that 150's number! It will be sticking here in a week or so I'd bet! Keep up your hard work!

    I was pleasantly surprised this morning to see my TOM arrived early this month. I guess that helps explain the 1.5 pounds yesterday! Now I just wish I had not eaten 600 calories in snacks last night for stress eating. LOL. The kids were driving me NUTS yesterday, and I had not made it to the gym since we got a new stove and dishwasher delivered yesterday (yay!) so I felt like a caged animal. I went to the mall with my neighbor who was looking for workout shorts, and I got 2 fabulous pairs in a MEDIUM!! YAY!!! And to top it off, they were tagged at $40, and someone had hung a 50% off sign that was not supposed to be there (that I had not seen and did not realize). So when they rung up at the regular price, the salesperson thought they had to honor a sale price that I didn't even know about and sold them to me for $20 each!! That was some luck!! They looked really great on me and made me feel stellar, which was the only reason I ever would have considered paying that in the first place. My friend told me I looked "hot" in them (blush) and that my hubby was going to bust something when he saw me in them :). What a boost!!! Yeeehaaa!!! Bring on August!!!!

    Hey everyone! Just wanted to check in. I was hoping to have better news but I didn't make my goal this month. I did lose 11.5 though so I'm not beating myself up too much. I know where my weak spots are and what I need to do to fix 'em. I just gotta do it! It's that simple..I just gotta do it! So I'm in for August with 8 lbs. Best wishes to everyone, Chris
