Hi everyone! And welcome malmusa! Another week goes by. My weight hasn't changed! And I've been good by BAD standards. No really I've been doing ok. My metabolism must be in freak out mode. OH NO SHE"S STARVING US AGAIN!! Well hardly.

Good plan Jan! I think for me I have to log even though I hate it. I really don't have the time. But that's what worked for me. I have to find a way to work it in. I find a way to get in the gym for an hour everyday, so what's the problem munse? Wha somatta u? eh? Sorry, talking to myself again!

 Warm weather is around the corner. I won't be able to hide in the sweats for much longer. eeeeeeeeek!

176.8 Gotta get going.

177.6  not a good week!

Welcome Songchild! Yeah those "disappoinments" can be some real setbacks. Being a stress eater I can really identify. Food has been my comfort for as long as I can remember. I'm learning AGAIN to put my health and well-being first. Happy to be losing again after a 6 month binge.

Changling girl you gotta be careful. I hope you are feeling better.

Hello everyone.

Welcome on in Mafabo! What CJ said. Ditto. And about the yoyo. Oh yeah! And about the gym??? Did you go today JCR? I'm gonna keep after you. My first...well partial week ended today with the Friday weigh-in. Of course the first week was good. Week two will probably be nothing. I'm watching BIGGEST LOSER on Tuesdays. Always motivating. If you haven't watched it, you're missing something big. Check it out!

Miss piggy out!

So happy to see all of my gal pals back here. Plus some new ones. Misery sure does love company. I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!

You know most woman have their teenagers to deal with and later on our parents become a challenge. I got off to a late start having my kids at 32 and 36. Now I'm dealing with the kids and parents at the same time. This is really an ugly time for me. I have always been an emotional eater. In fact I will eat to any emotion. I'm really trying to separate myself from these other issues. Instead of flogging myself with food when I stress out, I need to treat myself better.

OMG how depressing. My last post here was in March 07. I was 20 pounds lighter. Maybe I should have stayed around huh? What a wake up call. Thanks Caroljoy. No really. I'll be back next week to get started back up.

So grest to see some new gals around here. Not that I was tired of the others. We share the same sad story of regaining. I'm as bad as Oprah. I'm a comfort eater to be sure. But here we go again. So welcome girls. It promises to be an interesting ride. This is a great site to get healthy with.

Wow Caroljoy! Great to see you around here again. This is going to be like a reunion I think. I would like to try the empty nester thing. Our kids have given us so much heartache in the past year (our son mostly), that the empty nest thing sounds restful. Any way I have put on 15 big ones. In the same size but barely. And thanks to the gym for that. I did miss a total of almost two weeks lately, due to illness and holiday commitments. BUT NO MORE!! Tomorrow starts my re-commitment to the gym. Only death will keep me from going. That's number #1. Then number #2....getting the bad food out of the house. Number #3....Weaning myself off of the sugar. I've warned everyone around me....it won't be pretty. And even if I cry....don't give me chocolate! #4...Adding the water. I've been living on coffee. And finally...number #5...the really big one...LOGGING MY FOOD!!! That combination helped me to be successful before. I feel like such a slug. I know when I get all this sugar out of my system I will feel SO much better. I'm looking forward to putting this all into action. I think by mid-January I should be on my way. Keeping my fingers crossed, anyway. I can make it happen.

I've got pretty much the same story Doc. I got to goal last year. Some time after vacation this past summer, I dropped my very good habbit of logging. I've got 15 ugly pounds to loose now. I will get rid of all the holiday goodies (baddies) and begin anew. I'm looking forward to focusing on me for a change, and watching the results. We have been there and know what we have to do, right? I plan to start after the new year, or when the junk is outta the house whichever comes first! Good luck! We WILL do this!

Wow I'm totally green with envy. Hope you took  a lot of pictures.

I am sooo jealous. Let me know what fun you had, when you return. Safe trip girlfriend.

Seems to me they can do ALL this stuff on here...they could at LEAST make it easier to log using your tagged items. Us creatures of habit are really finding this tedious. HELLO  ANYONE HEAR ME! GOTTA LITTLE PROBLEM HERE!!!!

My life is a little horrendous here now. Stomach hurts and heart aches. Putting one foot in front of the other for now.

OH HAPPY DAY!!!! I DID IT! I DID IT! I DID IT! I'M LEGAL AS OF TODAY!

Sorry I've been sooo preoccupied with this test thing. I was watching the weather all week, and just knew I'd get rained out again. But prayers were answered! The sun shown this morning, and despite the cold and the wind, I got to test. I felt really ready and was very comfortable on MY motorcycle. I'm proud to say I aced it, with no points for mistakes. I wish I could say I've done as well with my weight. NOT SO! Maybe now I can focus on that. I've got to lose about 12 pounds for sure.

JCR, I hear your pain! I was dumped over here too. I'm lost also, but have no choice I guess. Today I'm feeling a little like "wonder woman" so I'll take it on I guess.

Loven, I hear you too! I've spent a little time with the chiropractor this month!!!

Hey Bub! How ya doin girlfriend!

Guess I'll go look around this place, and check out the diggs.
