Thanks everyone...it's been a lot of hard work and determination. I've also had to learn something new - Self-discipline. It's still amazing that it's only been a little over two months

I weighed in at 194 today.

Yay for Nick!
I'm just lucky I didn't gain this weekend. DH's boss invited us for a cook out. Steak & lobster plus veggies & huge baked potato then made us...made us I tell you...go have the most sinful desert at his favotite restaurant.
I'm back on track now.

Congrats to you Ginger! I am of the mind that as long as the scale is going down, it's ok if it is slow because that's the way to a slimmer, healthier self. If it takes me a year to lose this 10 to 15 lbs, I'm ok with that.

Congrats, Ginger...Denecee!

Nancy, I've not really thought about it like that...but it does put it in a different perspective.

I did have a bad weekend and fell off the wagon...it's like I just let myself go Sunday. Been trying to make up for it with my workouts.

Morning all...well back on the scale this morning and I am at 26 lbs. I have never lost this much before so it is exciting.

A pound a day Nancy? I am hoping that you are not starving yourself, because when you do get to your target, you will have to really watch you don't gain it back again. Good work on the 50.

I am not going to any weight program to lose my weight, I am doing it on my own.

A few tips that I have used. Do not eat at night after your supper. Keep yourself busy doing something, but do not eat. Have a herbal tea or water.

Water is a must. It goes with me where ever I go and I refil my bottle a couple times during the day.

I am not eating between meals. If I have to have something, I get a fruit or melba toast.

I eat a light breakfast, watch my lunch. Usually prepare a bunch of vegies so I have them ready to take with me to eat for lunch. Supper, I am just trying to watch my meat portion. I am still eating a good supper that makes me full, just really trying to watch portion control. When I am done my supper....I don't eat anymore.

You have to treat yourself during your diet. If you totally not allow yourself to have that "sweet treat" you will be eating them like crazy when you get to your goal weight. I have had cake, maple fudge and tastes of various desserts and sinful food over the course of my weight loss. I also still enjoy having a few "brown pops" with my friends. I have had chips etc., Just all in moderation.

I am not working out, however, with my new business I am off my keester and moving around more. Now that we have an extra hour of light, I hope it gives me some more energy.

Hope this helps, congrats to all who have lost weight. You all are doing great, as we all know that losing weight is not easy.

Skootz, you sound so positive and healthy and that is just great. Congrats on your new you!

Oh, I think you read Nancy's post wrong, she was talking about Nick's weight loss not hers.

Keep on keepin' on!

The most important thing is to get right back on track. Once you go crazy, it is so hard to get back to this mindset.

Congrats, Ginger!

Don't feel too bad Skootz, Denecee...I've been floating between 194 and 198 since April 1st.

It's like my body says, "ok...enough already!"

I'm down to the really hard weight to lose...but I'm not giving up on trying. :D

On Saturday morning, the scale was at the lowest it has been for me in over a year! How did I celebrate? By eating a big Easter dinner and now I'm not even going to touch the scale for at least 3 days. Onward!

good work Denecee...I stepped on the scale on Sat. and I am now at 29 lbs lost..woohoo.

I did overeat at supper last night, however with all the chocolate and candy around, I am proud of myself, I didn't have any of it..not even a taste. I figured if I get the flavour in my mouth, I wouldn't be able to stop..so I didn't start.

I too will leave the scales alone for a few more days.

Skootz, that was my problem, I did eat some of those whopper robin's eggs and couldn't stop. Very smart of you not to even start and what will power you are showing. I bet you are losing the craving for sweets. When I was in highschool, I went a whole year without any sweets besides Koolaid(that's what I drank). Lost the desire for even ice cream, but I must have got it back, lol.

Congrats to you for being at the 29 lb loss!!! That is wonderful! You should be very close to your goal now right? I have about 8 to 15 lbs that I would like to see disappear.
Let's keep reporting back, it's nice to have a buddy or two in this world of tempting eats.

Hey evvybuddy!

Just wanted to report that over the Easter Holiday...me and the family went to the in-laws and I kinda let myself go. Weighed in at 201 this morning and I'm not even upset or feeling guilty. I knew the whole time I was on vacation that I was going overboard and found myself eating to much, but I also thought I would put on 10 or more pounds. So, only gaining 3-5 pounds isn't the end of the world and I can probably work that off by this weekend. By looking at the big picture...I've still lost over 40 pounds.

Y'all keep on keeping on!
