That is my Christmas goal - done by Halloween!! :bigsmile:
I wish we had a happy dance smiley to choose from because that is what I have been feelin' this morning. I seem to be on a cycle of big loss - no/small loss - no loss - small/no loss - then back to big loss. This week is my big loss & I am going to enjoy it.
Woo hoo!!!!! :drinker:0 -

Just wanted to say a THANK YOU, to everyone who responded to my post yesterday. I am feeling much better today about the whole thing. One thing I do reconize is that this "social acceptance" vs "whats best for me" senerio has played out several times over the years not only in weight loss, but other aspect of my life. Social acceptance has always won out over what I wanted for myself. That being said, I'm determined to pass this "test of conviction" and not let others influence my journey. I talked to my son about this also, he switched to a vegan diet 3 years ago. He said that he had alot of negative feedback from people and the best thing he shared with me is that people don't like change that they are not in control of. That really struck a cord...... and that is exactly what most of you were saying too. So thank you again. You guys are the best!0

I'll update on the puppy situation when I know more, I noticed the puppies weren't outside anymore with the mom and the dad this morning...so not sure if they moved them for good, or just one day or what. At least they did something though.0

I'm doing a free 10 day trial at a gym near me and have been pretty unimpressed so far. I have been getting most of my cardio & strength training at home, but wanted to try the gym to see if I thought it was give me an edge. I like getting in the serious weight training, with more variety than what I can do at home...and I clocked some serious cardio yesterday and felt pretty good (although sore!). But I get a bad vibe from the people there. I'm the only overweight person I've seen (lots of skinny girls in hot pants & body builder guys) and no one, not even the staff, seems welcoming or friendly so I get really self conscious. They have a nice facility, but I know I won't go if I don't feel happy there.
I have another gym to try out that's closer to my home. Maybe that one will be better. Or maybe I'll find out that I'm just better off working out in the comfort of my own home. My husband and dog are always supportive and friendly.0 -

Hi everyone,
Sorry I have been totally MIA over the last month as my studies just consumed my life. BUT now I'm finished!!! I finished my last assignment on Saturday and I 'm back with vengeance! Over the last month I have been eating terribly, not logging in and not drinking water and not tracking what I eat but that changes right now. I jumped on the scales and nearly had a heart attack from all the weight I've but on BUT I did it to myself so today I'm making a change. So weigh in is 234.3 :sad: :explode:
Ok off to drink some water!!0 -
