    I think I can drop 20 lbs by Christmas if I keep exercising. I am just worried about the exercising part. I have no idea what I'll do when it gets too cold to go walking. I have been bugging hubby for a Wii & Wii Fit. If anyone can make suggestions for workouts, lmk. I don't like leaving the house unless there's errands to be run. So the fact that I'm getting out and walking every day is kinda a big deal for me.

    Anyway, here's to keeping an eye on the prize-- 20 lbs by Christmas!

    -sigh-

    Last Week: 271.7
    This Week: 272.7

    I gained a pound. Doesn't surprise me because I went to my family's pizza shop and I was starving... stuffed my face. This is what I get. I know better than to go down there when I'm really hungry, all will power goes out the door. Ugh.

    Today's a new day. Back on track and even though I HAVE to go down there this saturday, I will not be eating food there. I'll bring snacks and eat lunch somewhere else.

    How's everyone's week going? I was down to 155.4 yesterday morning (woohoo 7lbs in almost 2 months), but then yesterday was a kind of bad eating day AND I went and had a McD's small oreo blizzard :laugh: ... I sooo wanted ice cream and I caved. But I've been doing my runs this week and have finally gotten back to riding the horses after the rain and crappy rings made riding almost impossible.

    Well, I am back to 259.4; seems the more I cook, the easier it is to not eat. Make any sense? I can only think that as I prepare I am more aware of everything about the food & knowing I am really a good cook. It helps that everyone else enjoys the food & appreciates the amount of work that went in to the prep. sue

    Not totally surprised since I wasn't super good this week... Not really bad on any particular day, but not super any day either lol. Ate out a few times as well. Been doing my running but not the strength stuff. Owell moving on...
