I gained a couple of pounds after a bit too much Thanksgiving indulgence. I was at 161 this morning, but should overcome my holiday missteps by next Friday.

I am 123.2 today. I am the same weight as yesterday. I am happy about that as I was careful to not overeat yesterday.

The holidays have not been a problem at all since I started this December 6, 2006. Some friends and family thought I was crazy starting during the holiday season but there will always be events in your life so it is better to not put change off. I am so happy I didn't. I am becoming much happier with my weight and I think 117-119 is going to be my final goal.

Happy Black Friday to all. I stayed in bed! We do have a wedding this afternoon though.

I cheated a little and weighed in on Thurs morning before the turkey celebration.
Weight was 121. I'll take that. But sure did not follow the plan yesterday.


A pic of my sis setting some of the food out on the table. We had 15 all toll here and the kids of all ages had fun. I sure thought I would never be able to get that kitchen cleaned up. But we got the job done.

I'm not weighing in today! I did fine all Thanksgiving Day, but at night I had a huge craving for some crusty Italian bread and turkey with mayo. So I had some! I ate very clean today. Let's see what the scale says tomorrow!

Hi, everyone!!
135, very stable lately, even with a lot of no-nos (portion controlled of course).
I am racing tomorrow with my kids at the city yearly race, inside
the hilly old town, around 5k for me and 1 mile for the kids.
I am SO nervous.It's my first race!!
The weather is crappy, cold and rainy, and I don't know what to expect with
thousands of people running (2500 will be running at the same time
as myself, 1100 with my kids).I'm worried about the clothes, the kids,
the temperature, the organization....
I've been conditioning myself to just go with the flow and enjoy, but
easier said than done :-)
I'll let you know how it went.
Bisous,

F.

Fviegas You will really enjoy the race. Once you get there and get in the spirit of it, it becomes a most enjoyable event. You will meet others running for the first time and some that are experienced runners. All those worries will soon be behind you. Have fun and enjoy the day.

123.5 for me this am. Not good. I have been eating too many of the wrong foods and I know it. Today is a new start.

My one month Curves measurements show a total loss of 3.5 inches and a pound, and a % in body fat.

I am 122 this morning. My lowest this week was 121.25. I think I have settled on 120 as goal and I will allow a few pounds below and 2 above that for my range.

I was stunned at Old Navy this week when I bought jeans. They must run really big! LOL! I bought size 2 and now that I am home I almost think I should have tried size 0! I can just about pull them off without unzipping them. I was so happy when I fit into size 6 so this was pretty shocking to me. This is the first new jeans I have bought this year.

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Hi! I weighed in this morning at 158.4. This is good considering what happened over Thanksgiving.

119.0 -- a bit higher than I'd like. But I was in the 117 range at some point during the week.

I haven't been weighing myself very often recently - which is good, because I think it's past time that I stop obsessing about how much I weigh. I did check this morning, though, and was 117.4, which is pretty much the same as I've been all year.

Hello,
134.5, a slight decrease, but probably normal fluctuation.
The 3M race was amazing, incredible atmosphere, and a not too shabby
rank for me, top 50%. Of course I almost died getting to the finish
line as I started out too strong :-)
My sons had a wonderful experience, despite the pouring rain, and we
all went home to break the chocolate cauldron (sp?) and eat it, as it is
the "Escalade" festivities here in Geneva. No guilt afterwards :-)
Have a very nice weekend, you all !!
F.

118.6 this morning. I'm actually really relieved about that, as I wasn't able to get below 119 all week and it was up as high as 120.4 a couple of days ago. I think the culprits were hormones, stress, and not enough sleep, but I've been trying to get a little more rigorous in control of snacking, etc.

many as I would like!

I am 121.4 this morning. I would love to see 119 by the end of the month. I would be very satisfied at maintaining in the teens. Have a great weekend everyone!

F, glad you enjoyed the race. Will you do another??

Like your new avitar Bella. Neat!!

Congrats Diane, you are doing great.

Missed telling you all that on Dec 1 I celebrated my 7th year of maintaining. I am surprised myself.

Weight on Friday was 122. Most of the Christmas parties are behind me now, so I should settle in a little lower.
