Getting motivated for the week ahead. Planning meals. Researching recipes. Thinking about ways to remain focused when those snacking carb Sirens beckon from the kitchen around 10pm. This is what I am thinking about today. Also, making true efforts to drink more water.
Thank you Chinatownchina for all of the support that you give here to everyone. You will break through that pesky pound. It will happen once you put your mind to it! It will.
Hey Jiggypuff - I've had a nasty flu, as well. Glad that you are better - not fun at all!
Everyone - stay well!3 -
valleygirl74: well done; you lost that damn weight from last week and a bit more!0

Just a bit of movement, but in the right direction so I'll take it!
My birthday is on Thursday, and we're getting a puppy next weekend. Looking forward to long walks with the squirt.

WTG Chinatown! A pound is great! I lost a pound too, but gained it back the next day! LOL!
So, I bought a new scale. My old scale is one of those old school ones with the weight increments in 20 pounds showing up in big numbers, then these little itty bitty lines to mark between the numbers. I went to the doctors for my cold/flu and on their scale, I was over 221! So that meant my scale was off by at least 5-7 pounds! So I bought a new digital scale. And had to edit my numbers. So...my new numbers are (Keep in mind I have to estimate what my actual starting weight was and each other weigh-in until today):
10/1: 227 Est
10/8: 223 Est
10/15: 219 Est
10/22: 217.4 Actual
I'm disappointed I'm that much further away from my initial goal of getting below 200 pounds by the end of the year. But at least I'll know when I do arrive there, it'd be for real! And it's gonna happen!! Have a wonderful week everyone!!

My dear husband bought me new scales as he referred to the last ones as a 'random number generator'. As soon as I weighed myself I was 5lbs heavier! Also I swear the doctors deliberately keep their scales wrong and not in a good way/weigh!! The ones I have now I just accept so that in the back of my mind I have the hope I am really 5lbs lighter than they actually show. That's the hope anyhow!!
Also under 200 by the end of the year is something you will achieve, plenty time for that to happen, just keep on going!
