    Loss - 1.8

    I CAN SCHEDULE MY RIDE NOW! My next weight goal reward (WGR): going on a horseback ride once I am under 200! In may places, commercial horse riding venues will not allow you to rent a horse if you are over 200 (for a woman, men can weigh more and I ask you how does the horse know?), so it has been a long time since I got to go riding!

    What is your WGR for April?

    I'm in a little shock here. I realized why I gained almost two lbs last week. Poor food choices and TOM certainly were the top two. But now to have this! OMG. Plateau...stay away!

    @usborne, thanks much for your tip about eating half of your exercise calories. Such a good physical and psychological mind set!

    My weight loss reward for this month will be getting a pedi. :-) I haven't had one in a long time!

    I have lost a total of about 28 pounds since early February. 4 gallons of water weighs about that. That was a good visual for me because I imagined carrying around 4 full gallon jugs every day...gets pretty heavy, huh? There is that much less of me now!

    With it being Good Friday today, I almost forgot it was weigh-in day...

    April 1: 146
    April 6: 145 (-1 pound)

    I'm going high protein / low carb for a few days, as I need to get back down to 143 in order to win my gym challenge and get my $100 membership fee refunded. Figures it's Easter weekend - my brother's 50th birthday party is tomorrow, and then turkey dinner at mil's on Sunday. BUT, we went to a movie today (Hunger Games), and I did not, I repeat, did NOT, eat any movie popcorn. If I can do that, then I can do anything!

    PS. Go Team Gale!!

    Great analogy! i remember when I lost 44 lbs a couple years ago; I was buying dog food and I picked up the 44 lb bag and walked around the store with it. What an experience; it really brought into reality what I had done. Very cool.
