    Well my fellow Bon Temps I'm not sure I'll be having a loss this week.... I'll be lucky to start seeing a loss by next week. If I am lucky I won't show a weight gain for this week. I've been dealing with one of the worse cases of PMDD I've had in a while which means this will be one heck of a painful week for me. I'm going to be doing my best to stay on track and push through everyday... As I have my horses to take care of I won't be able to dodge those calories burned... but not sure I'll be able to push myself to work out.

    =( Just take care of yourself! That is what is most important.

    Despite a week of wedding celebrations and less than stellar food options I've lost 3 lbs - down to 150. Soooo close to the 140's. I guess I've learned I can be around temptation and practice moderation and still come out ok.

    You will be fine, remember, One day at a time. My weight does the same thing. Feeling better and doing your best is what matters not the numbers on the scale.

    This has been an extremely frustrating week for me. I've avoided the scale ate the best I could making sure to get my calories in for the day in as healthy a way as I've been able to manage. My body clock is all off. I have managed to lose some of the fluid I had gained back but I am still up from last week. I'm hoping over the next two days I'll be able to drop that fluid weight. Been drinking lots of clear water... making sure to get my vitamins everyday. This coming week is going to be a tough one for me I am having to cover the midnight shift 12AM to 8AM for the entire week. In the process of doing this I am going to have to try to do my best to stay on top of my work and complete the work of someone else... sigh. I am hoping I'll at least be able to fit in a work out everyday either prior to my shift or after it. It's bad enough I know my eating pattern is going to be totally off... LOL if I'm lucky next week will be a super week for me LOL...but I'm not giving up on my weigh ins for monday.

    Well I am up by two pounds but know I've lost alot of inches over the last two weeks so I'm fairly certain its a combination of fluid weight and muscle weight being added. I'm hoping this time next week I'll have lost all the fluid weight and will see the scale going down. Sorry for the gain all hoping for a better weigh in next week.

    Go us! First place overall!

    To keep on track for my summer goal I need to lose 1.5 pounds this week. I'm not working so it should be easier than the past few weeks.

    Has everyone seen the season's first episode?

    I haven't finished watching Season 3 yet, but I plan on watching the last 6 episodes while in the hospital recovering from surgery. I decided to save them just for that purpose, I figured a nice dose of hot vampires would help in my recovery. ;)
