Linda Keep up whatever you are doing, it must be working. And maybe in May you will lose more. Are you able to do much walking yet? Apparently, that is what gets rid of the belly. Oh well, I'd better get started, I may have to walk around the world before I take off the extra belly. And DH will only have to go to the end of the county line to get rid of his. It is just NOT fair! |
I am kind of disappointed I thought more people would have signed up for the weight loss FQ prize for May. Where is everyone???????????????

It is just NOT fair! I did think of something else that I have done and didn't really realize it. I haven't been snacking. I keep going to the kitchen, looking for "something," but can't find anything I really want to leave empty handed and empty -mouthed. lol I was thinking I hadn't done squat, but I didn't even notice. I think it is because of reading all the posts and the swaps I'm doing. I would rather sew than eat anyway. :-) Thanks for the encouragement. |
BrendaB I am so glad you are showing some loss!! Keep working at it because sometimes it is the little changes that make the difference. I have realized we don't lose this weight over night, but staying focused will get us there, even if it's slowly
Isn't life a challenge sometimes. :-D |
I want in too! In december I went to the doctor and I weighed in at 185. I am down to 161 right now. My fear is once I get comfortable in my new home I will put it back on. Right now I am busy unpacking, planting flowers and starting a garden, so this keeps me moving.Good thing fabric is high in fiber hahahaha!

I think it is because of reading all the posts and the swaps I'm doing. I would rather sew than eat anyway. :-) Thanks for the encouragement. The not snacking thing is pretty hard to do. I posted an idea that Lneal said that she tried and is having success with about snacks. Where in the morning or evening (if you are that together) I select a four or five healthy snacks. apple, grapes, carrots, cheese stick, WW 1 or 2 pt snacks, yogurt. I put those all in a bag and have them available through out the morning and afternoon. I eat my normal breakfast and lunch, but if I want to snack, I go to the preplanned bag of snacks which holds the things I really like. I don't have to guess what to eat, and it keeps me from grazing (bag of potato chips, a few cookies, couple of more chips, few more cookies). This type of grazing is hard to keep track of. Since I am on Weight Watchers, I keep track of my points, so while I am packing my preplanned snack bag, I write them down and figure them into my daily total. If I don't eat something in the bag I cross it off my tracker. I am no longer hungry between meals. And also I don't need to pack as many snacks as I did when I first started this little routine. |

As far as you fear of gaining back what you lost, maybe while you are unpacking, you could consider taking those clothes that are waaaaay tooooo big for you and put them in a box and immediately take them to your local Salvation Army or Goodwill store or some other resale shop. If you donate the too big clothes to a charity, you won't have anything to grow back into, and you may even be able to deduct the value of donation on your income tax next year. Good luck to you as you settle into your new home, hope we hear from you often. Linda |
I have just come back from the doctor I had a loss of 4 1/2 pounds this week and I owe it to all of you ladies with your encouragement and helpful hints,I take the little guy I watch walking everyday even during the cold spell we have had.I watch my snacking though still having a hard time with lunch as I really hate to cook something for myself so usually I have a sandwich but have wondering has anyone tried WW dinners,though we don;t have much of a variety in canada I thought maybe one of those would help.Also I think once the little guy leaves I will take the dog for a quick walk around the block before hubby gets home.Thanks again for all the help you ladies are the GREATEST!!!!!Now onto May....
