    Been eating way too much lately so glad to see I'm still going down! In my defense however, I am in a wedding next weekend and my dress (bought months ago) is already too loose! Going to be using double-sided fabric tape!!

    Not a great week, fell off the wagon for several days so I didn't meet my goal for the week but I am happy that there was no gain. Planning to do much better this week.

    I am a little worried about this week, I am off to a work conference in Chicago, and that means catered meals, little to no exercise....sigh. I packed as many smart snacks as possible, but I still have to work hard to make good choices. Just hope to not do too much damage.

    Have a good week y'all!

    Recalculated my calories goals this week and was heartbroken that is already has my goal down to 1490 per day (without exercise). Having trouble adjusting to the lower calorie goal but based on the movement in the scale, I guess it was what I needed. On a positive note - I am extremely happy to be out of the 300's. Took about 7 months, but I made it to a very big goal. My progress has definitely resembled the tortoise more than the hare.

    Congratulations!! I remember how happy I was to get out of the 300s! Celebrate your hard work!! We started at the same weight (and same height too!) And I would love to partner up for this journey! Interested?! :)
