    Hi All!

    Last week I lost .3 of a pound. Not so great. This week I am down .5. Part of me is upset with myself, but I don't have a reason to be because I am working out everyday and have not been over my calories once. So what gives?

    This week I am going to increase my water intake as it isn't the best.

    Have a great week.

    PhylJen - wooooo hooo! I am so glad.
    to all of you wonderful people, thanks for helping me keep my head in the game with all of my new distractions. although the scale is still up, it is edging down again. I know I can get back to where I was last august with some steady motivation and then I can continue on to my goal.

    Thanks to all of you who commented on my daughter's photo. It was a great time and I am one proud mama. Plus I really love weddings. I hope I can show you some more pix once the girl gets them uploaded to share.

    Sorry, I haven't been posting much...I'm still hanging in here.. I've been eating only soup, mashed potatoes, oatmeal, yogurt, ice cream, and peanut butter since Monday.. I hate it. My right side of my mouth is fine, my left side still hurts. I'm sleeping much better but ot being able to eat solid foods just yet sucks. I want to bite into an apple or dark chocolate. I really want some Chick-fil-a or a big ol' cheeseburger..lol. Our weather is slowly warming up..suppose to be almost 50* in some spots throughout the next week. Hoping to be 100% recovered so I can get out there and walk/run. Hope you all had a good weekend and a great weekend! See ya Monday for a weigh in .. XoxoxoX Bru

    This mini goal met :) but I hope it stays met through the end month. I am so scared of everything just reversing like everything else I have tried does.

    Feb 6 : 294
    Feb 13 : 288.2

    MFP is awesome and so are all of you. I haven't been in the 280s in over a year!

    Happy Valentine's everyone! :smile: :heart:

    I decided to post my weight today because i am quite happy about my loss :happy:

    Feb 8
    155.54
    Feb 14 --- 152.40
    Feb 21 ---
    Feb 27 ---

    i was very good during the weekend - the only exception was a glass of red wine yesterday but it seems it didn't do my any harm - it was simply delicious! :wink:
    I went hiking on saturday with a girlfriend - 12km through mud! the weather was not that great , we saw a bit of sun...but it felt great to work out outdoors for a change and get some fresh air. It was much needed.
    This morning i went to train before work to the gym and as i was leaving i got a red rose from the receptionist at the club - they were gving all women red roses for valentine's day. I found it sweet - an additional reward for going training today.

    have a great day everyone! :heart:

    FINALLY PASSED MY PRE-CHRISTMAS WEIGHT! Yay!!!! Of course, my liquid only foods this past week had some to do with that, but it was lots of mashed potatoes, soup and oatmeal, aka lots of sodium.. but that's ok, my body needed a switch up anyway ;)

    HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY EVERYONE!! :heart:
