Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! Sorry I haven't posted in a cpl weeks, maybe more. I'm doing good...made my first goal of ten pounds..and setting another 10 lb challenge. I read that your all doing so well, I'm really happy for ya'll. I've been on track all week since Sunday, although I have to admit there are days (mostly single days) that I'm not eating right. But get right up and start over. Well I hope you all have a wonderful day and I'll keep in touch to see how your all doing, hope to be more encouragement than I have not been lately!! Keep your head up Lynn...this too shall pass, that's what I keep saying to myself as well. Rock and Roll ladies!!

Smile Hanging in there

Well it has been a tough week for me and I am glad it is just about over. Kids don't have school today and one more day of work and then it is the weekend. I can't wait.

My sister made it through the surgery and they have already sent her home. The wonders of modern medicine! We are keeping our fingers crossed for the best. And through all of this I did not cheat at all. May have had one or two days of higher good carbs but otherwise...no complaints.

Have a great day ladies.

Sweets, glad to hear your sister's surgery went well and she is home already.

Browniz, hope you are doing well girl and things are looking a little brighter for you.

Greeniz, congrats on losing those 10lbs. Sounds like you're doing wonderful!! Keep going.

hgrace, welcome and good luck!!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Not much here, came down with the flu. It's still trying to hang on, but feeling much better!! On a good note, I didn't cheat!! Actually the food looked gross to me, not even tempted. This is how I knew I was really sick!!

Well gonna go crawl back in bed, the same place I spent the last few days!!

Until later ladies, take care.

Jenny

Congrats to you Sweets!! 23 days cheat free That is awesome, you keep going girl!!

As far as Curve's it went good. I have been going since June and really enjoy it. I get weighed and measured there once a month. The measuring has really helped me since the scale is not always so kind. I was up 3 pounds this month, but I was down 3 inches!! In total I have lost 43 inches, and 10% body fat. Now to keep going!!

Smile Day 24

Still managing to stay cheat free. It hasn't been easy. My main problem is getting in enough water and then finding time/motivation to do some exercises. That is the most difficult part for me right now.

Yesterday was tough as well since it would have been the b-day of my sister who passed away at the beginning of Oct

It has been an emotional roller coaster this past year and I hope that I am able to stick with this during any other hard times as I know I am an emotional eater.

Have a wonderful day ladies.

Sweets, you are doing fantastic. I hope you keep up the strength to make it through the tough times, I'm with you and am a very emotional eater.

I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your sister. Her b-day must of been a really rough time. I know I lost my mom seven years ago, and her b-day is always the toughest day for me to get through still. Wishing you the best.

Browniz, glad to see you back. Nice to see the stress is calming down a little. Keep you chin up girl, better times are ahead. You always have those beautiful girls looking up to you, even when times are rough. I know your gonna succeed!!

Things are ok here, finally made it through 2 cheat free days. My weight is back to its lowest 161, now just keeping my thought on the 150's. Hope I can keep my head straight, I really want to see those numbers. Been keeping up with my excersise, which is a plus. Yesterday was 20 min. of cardio, and a hour of weight training.

Hope everyone has a great day, off to work for me.

Jenny
