The half bags of chips have been there since the first of this year when I began this…

Can't believe I'm even thinking this. I haven't been small enough to wear a bikini since I was 17. Now I find myself at a weight (and age) that I'm thinking I might need/want a bikini. I want something fun, not the normal conservative thing I would wear. I like tankini's, but I want some wow! I am single. Seriously,…

New foods exposed to since MFP
This morning I had my first Kale in my breakfast smoothie. (I think I could eat just about anything in a smoothie.) Never even heard of Kale before MFP.

Scorpio diet/exercise
Copied from another post: "Scorpio (October 23-November 21) You're infamously all-or-nothing in your approach to exercise and dieting. The nice part is that no zodiac sign has deeper reserves of willpower. Best bet: Any extreme regimen that involves control over your impulses, mild self-flagellation, and full-body…

Your Success this week?
My success this week included putting on a belt and needing more holes in it to fit me. Wow, that was amazing! Haven't worn a belt in a long time. Who needs a belt when your pants are too tight?

Who else scrapes the blender to get every gram?
Certainly others do this. This morning as with most morning I stood at the kitchen window, visibile for the neighbors to see, and scrape my blender clean for the avocado smoothie remains. If I'm gonna get "charged" for every fraction of an ounce in my daily log, I gonna get as much of the product as I can. Ticks me off…
