I'm taking that weight as more of an average, it was lower this morning (aware of weight fluctuations) just been weighing in every morning and recording it, I like this method. keep up the good work all

Weighing in tmrw. Just getting up and around after surgery on the 28th of October so I'm a little nervous. 20+ years in CUTTTEEE!!! shoes and paid in full for it. Ladies beware!!
I was fighting the monkey on my back over last weekend. When the pain meds were gone it felt like I hadn't eaten in a month. Finally I gave in and ate 2500 calories on Monday to just be done with it!! It seemed to work and I've been on track since then. :noway:
On the personal goal note ~ I'm afraid that I haven't even started exercising yet BUT I'm still committed and hope to get up and running next week. :drinker:
See you all tomorrow!!0 -

How am I doing - I gave up on the jumping jacks....I will get back on it, but I don't know if I can still do 3,000. The miles are coming along, I'm 26.5 mi in, which means I have a hella lot to do, but it will have to get done! Pilates is going okay.
