Just wanted to introduce myself and say "hi"

I discovered this plan two weeks ago and started last Tuesday. I've lost a few pounds, but more importantly, this seems like something I can stick to. I've actually enjoyed myself and have experienced very little hunger.

Yeah Sara! Congrats to your hubby finishing school! Don't worry about the pound it's probably just water weight! You got this!

Hi all!

I've been a little MIA myself lately -- just been busy. And, bummed that I have been maintaining. I DON'T WANT to do a slingshot week -- for whatever reason -- but maybe it is something that I need? Not sure.

We leave for vacation in 10 days or so.

I know that my body is changing with exercise though and my measurements are going down. Tomorrow is WI day, so we will see. I do feel good.

These last 20 pounds have been brutal to get off! Geez. Thanks for listening to my frustrations.

Have a great day!

Hi everyone! The trial I was on this week for jury duty ended yesterday. It was very interesting! The snacks and lunches were not CTL approved though. I weighed in today and am up 2. Kind of ironic it was a slip and fall case and acting as a juror I wiped out. It is kind of funny even though it hurts. I finally got in last night after the trial at urgent care. I was worried I broke my thumb since I can't move it after 2 days. They were worried about the bones hand to wrist so I am waiting for the referral to the orthopedist. Eh gads!!!! I know nothing about x rays but supposedly it was hard to get a good read because of the 2 days of swelling. Praying it is just badly sprained and all will heal asap. Regardless everything is braced up and protected.

Sarah I hope you daughter feels better soon! Poor kid and what a fright for you!!! I'm so sorry your grandpa isn't doing well

Christine you might need that week. Didn't JB do very well with it???? Your body is changing so celebrate

Midge I know what you mean. I have been on off since coming back from vacation due to flu, laziness and the jury meals. . I think we just need to do it!

Monica I'm glad you found something that is working well for you!!!! Way to go!!!!

It seems like everyone is busy and there is a high stress level for a lot of us. Stressed here too and I too am putting off doing a slingshot week. I'm not even sure why, I just don't want to! I'm going to though, starting Sunday. After my nice loss last week, I didn't lose this week. Have a fun Saturday everyone!!! :flowerforyou:

Sarah I am so sorry you are having so much stress! I think a good cry helps. I hope hubby can help take some of the stress off. So did you get that walk?

How2win ~ good luck on the slingshot

I am trying not to be too frustrated with things. I weighed in today and was WAY up. Like right back to the beginning up. How odd is that when I have not been over eating cal wise? Yesterday I ate once. Ground beef and a sweet potato. Obviously skipping all these meals has a bad effect even if it does not make sense calorie wise. I am near the end of tom so it shouldn't be that. I am getting crabby since I am not very handy at making food 1 handed. I am going to have dh help me today.

I can't wait to get into the orthopedist and find out what is up. I was crabby to have clients calling and wondering if I could possibly be in this week. just special for them only. I have no idea how I am supposed to do hair if my thumb, most of my hand and wrist are immobilized in an ugly contraption that needs to stay on. 24/7 for now I coulnt grasp before they put this on either.. Cant grasp= problem. I'm trying not to get frustrated with them for wondering if I could make an exception JUST for them. Sure I will if you don't care how your hair looks being cut, colored, styled one handed. EEKK. My clients are very important to me but I can not preform miracles. If I can't use my hand I can't use my hand. End of story.

I will be starting to use a BodyFit Media as soon as it is charged up I bought the 1 year subscription so I wont waste the $ spent.
