    My weight has been doing up and down a pound or two for a few months now. It is upsetting but I refuse to lose hope. I am going to attend the Women of Faith Conference and I will doing a prayer and fast 7 days prior to the conference. I hope that this would also help me cleanse my body and get rid of toxins.

    Margie from Pretty Prairie, KS

    Height 5'3
    June 22 Current Weight 157 lbs
    5% goal 7.85 lbs
    10% goal 15.7 lbs

    Weigh in dates:
    July 1 Weigh in 152 lbs
    July 11 Weigh in on vacation, ran from scale.
    July 21 Weigh In 164. 12 pound gain in 20 days.
    July 31 Weigh In

    I realize that today's weight is from being on vacation, but it's depressing nonetheless. I managed to walk everyday, and could feel the burn, but I also ate whatever and whenever I wanted. Who is this person wrapped around my petite body. Not feeling good about it. Today the biggest change to my lifestyle I will make is water. Lot's of water.

    Oh, and did I mention to help me feel fat my feet/ankles/calves are currently all one. Two days in the car was not good to my body either. The new size medium clothes that I have bought over the last couple of months, throwing out the smalls, yep, you guessed it, are now tight. Give me a moomoo.

    We can't dwell too long about mistakes that we have done but just move forward. We are the same height and now the same weight so this is the best time for both of us to help each other. We can do it. I have been on this road so many times in my life but this time I am turning 50 in October and I want to do this the last time. So please help me and I will help you.

    Tried another hike and it worked well. I believe most of the weight loss was from sweat.... tough being 51, menopausal and hiking... but better than sitting :)

    August 31 Final Weigh In 150 and I feel pretty good.

    I still have another 15 to go, but after coming back from vacation in July, with that nasty weight gain, I didn't think I would make the 5%. I'm leaving in a week or 2 again for Oregon to see my first grandchild, but I won't be in vacation mode so I should be able to continue as I have.

    She's having a girl :) The due date is the 11th, but due to high blood pressure, my daughter's on "modified bed rest", and it looks like they will induce this Friday. Hope to have Hannah Jo make her appearance by Saturday. I planned on flying out on the 18th to give this new little family some time, but have changed that to the 11th so I can help when they need me most, after they get out of the hospital and in time for my SIL to go back to work.

    I have a granddaughter named Hannah too but they spell it Hana. Hope everything goes great! Grandchildren are so much fun! I have 4...2 boys and 2 girls...3 of them were born within 2 weeks of each other and one was born on my birthday. I also have 6 step grands so when we all get together it's a mob...LOL! Enjoy spoiling your new little one and have a safe trip!
