    I expected a gain this week, due to starting P90x! Day 4 today and I am SOOOOOO SORE!!!! I'm sure my muscles are retaining some fluid. Seems that we are on a losing streak right now (and MFP is the only place I know where a losing streak is a good thing lol :laugh: ) I appreciate all the sweet comments from everyone about me reaching my goal weight. I feel so confident now! It was nice to be able to finally post my befores and afters in the success stories....these challenges and seeing everyone else's success is what has kept me going. Much love to you all!!! :heart:

    I didnt even bother weighing in this week...my grandfather was in hospital all week and we just lost him yesterday. I havent been able to eat very well and am eating of course out of depression. So maybe I will try to get back on track today...I automatically get 3 days off from work...so now I am home until Wednesday...will do alot of gardening and housework...and get my workout on too
    I hope everyone has a wonderful memorial day weekend.

    In one month I have lost 2 inches off my waist....i have lost 5 inches over all since September! :blushing:

    So sorry about your grandfather. Sometimes things like eating habits and exercise have to take a back seat to more important things...in your case, emotional healing. Your heart muscle is the most important one of all, and when it's hurting you just have to give yourself a break. Hang in there!

    Not sure why there's no loss, even up .2, but I am not going to worry about it. Probably too much salt or something dumb...I am still in One-derland so I am not going to sweat the small stuff. I did weigh in yesterday...I just had such a crazy day I didn't get it posted. This is going to be a crazy week...my son is graduating from HS tomorrow and I have family descending later today. Plus, i am running a 5K on Saturday and going to a friend's Master's ceremony and my son's friend is staying with us for a week and I am getting tired just thinking about it. Onward and upward (well, hopefully downward! :wink: )

    4/27 - 152
    5/4 - 150 (-2) (but I am having some serious problems staying there... I keep fluxuating and I havn't been cheating and I have been going to the gym almost everyday- suggestions?)
    5/11 - 155 (+3) UGH! Birthdays, camping, mothers day= no logging (and that is down from where I was on Monday :(
    5/18 - 151 (-1)- but down 4 from last week! Hopefully I will be back where I want to be next week.
    5/25 - 149.5 (-1.5)- I normally dont count half pounds, but when you see the "4" on the scale you just have to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    6/1 - 149 (-.5)- better... and that included memorial day so I guess it is a win.
