Happy to say the scale showed 178.2 this morning - that's 2.4 lbs. off from last Monday, so the plateau got busted! Yay!

Hi all, just to let you know, I've got no internet at home for a while, and can't risk posting on my blog from work. Also can't be on here as much as I'd like at work, so everyone have a great week, I'll see you all when I get back. /hug

You can only sit on your rump and feel sorry for yourself for so long before your butt goes numb.
Better to jog away your worries than to add a sore ass to the list.
Mary, thank you for starting this, cheers to a great week.
mhidbon, what do you mean out of your league?? Sounds like you are having a great

I mean, like, they're a well known, often chased bad boy in the local scene. This is the same person who said that I was "too young and too thin" Since I'm under 21 I still count as one of the "youngins" apparently

Way to go, Terri, on the weight loss! You're really on a roll. June must be your month! I saw the pictures that you posted and you look healthy and happy. Keep going... your goal is in sight!
Had another really productive day today. Knocked out a pile of paperwork, managed to get in a great hike and kept my eating really clean. Haven't had many cravings lately so it's been really easy to keep on track. Sure wish I could figure out why so I could take advantage of it. May have to look more closely at my food log to see if my food choices are keeping me full longer for some reason.
It may be that now that school is out, the stress has reduced, the family has relaxed and life is pretty darn good. Stress just may be my biggest trigger. Looks like that may be a really big key as to when I feel a need to eat poorly or simply eat too much.

Reached 30 lb. Weight Loss Goal April, 2010
Fighting The Battle to Maintain
1. Daily calories 1300 or less. 1241
2. Exercise 6 times. Ran at the park
3. Rest shoulder three consecutive days. Yes
4. Log everything. Yes
5. Journal mood/reasons for eating. Yes
6. Weigh in daily. Yes
7. Get vacation plans nailed down. Narrowed it down
8. Get new cell phone contract, or renew/renegotiate. Hubby's got the lead on this one; I've got the vacation legwork
9. Finish painting the last of the trim; touch up walls. Wait for weekend
10. Stay caught up with work. Somehow the less I have to do, the less productive I am!? On a good timetable today
Some days feel like a giant logic problem, trying to make sure the macros are not way out of whack, making sure to get in all my fruits and veggies, and getting in enough fiber, all while staying in a restricted calorie range. It's do-able but I need some more variety, so will experiment with that this week...did do a lot of things differently today.
Work is caught up, house is caught up, yard is caught up. Why does the house stay straighter when my husband is out of town than when my son is gone somewhere? One of life's great mysteries, I suppose!
