OMG Robin you are doing awesome!! I love seeing your snail move! As I am sure you really do LOL

Ack at those jeans not coming any smaller! That always seems to happen arrgg!

130.6.

I know, my numbers are bumping up against each other. Very cool. I can't wait till they overlap!

And isn't always the way, no matter what size you are? Although no one's terribly sympathetic at this point, which I kind of understand. I decided that when I go to the outlets this month, I'm not going to bother with the Lee and Aura jeans, since they seem to always be too big in the thigh now. I'm going to check out the Levi's and the Gap and maybe some of the brands at the Western places. Lucky jeans actually tell you how big the leg hole is in each style they make.

Oops. Edited to add workout, in the interests of consistency. Did Tae Bo Abs plus lifted weights. Didn't make it to the gym. I'm considering canceling my membership and joining one with better hours, though.

LOl @ You--I am sure there are plenty sympathic for ya! I know I am-- so you can be return the favor in a few months when I whine about not being able to find my fave jeans from my skinny days anymore--They dont make them anymore

I would check Old Navy jeans too..I love Gap jeans and cant wait to wear them again!

YOUR A LOOSING MACHINE!

[DogMa]

Thanks,, all. I think I've finally hit a groove; too bad it took over a year! I'm eating the exact same thing pretty much every day for now so I don't mess anything up.

And I'll absolutely be sympathetic when you start hunting, too, Reginia. Hopefully I'll have some suggestions. (Right now, for all of us who used to have big thighs and don't anymore, I highly recommend Villager jeans. I got mine at Kohl's, they're a Liz Claiborne brand, and they actually make me feel thin. Or thinNER.)

Speaking of which, today's the first morning that I got up, saw myself in the mirror and thought maybe my stomach's NOT so big anymore.

I missed my one goal of the week, though. No gym today. I forgot I had a vet appointment, and then after that I had to meet up with the sprinkler guys and that took longer than expected. So now they just left and it's almost 5, and I'm too hot to even think about going. I'm going to sit for a little bit and cool off, then do Tae Bo Abs and lift some weights, and call it a day.

Sigh. Forgot we're having a party at work tomorrow for a designer who's getting married. I figure since I made brownies a few weeks ago for the OTHER designers who were getting married (to each other), I should bring something this time, too.

They smell SO good. But I didn't lick the spoon or anything. Not even one peanut butter chip, like I had last time.

I'm way down from my usual nighttime weight (I know; what can I say?), so I'm hoping that'll be reflected in the morning. If I have to eat the exact same things every day for the next two weeks till I leave, I'll do it.

ROBIN,

Just to say I've been following your progress closely.
You are doing sooooo good, and it can't be long now until you reach goal!

Such patience and determination...
You're an inspiration, for sure!

You're still going to beat me there, Lizabette. But at least I'm right behind you.


Today: 130.2. I was hoping to be in the 120s, but what can you do?
Today's workout: Tae Bo Abs

[JeepGirl]

Ohh you are doing so good. I would eat the same thing too if it worked..Oh wait I already do

Also **HUGE HUGGGGS** cause you spell my name correctly lol. I am used to it being spelt wrong and I smile each time I see it typed right! lol

[DogMa]

I'm just glad now I know how to pronounce it. I was pronouncing the "i" till that quiz.

I was eating ALMOST the same thing every day before. But now I'm not varying it at all! I'm afraid to even eat a different flavor of oatmeal!!

lol Robin--I knew those quizzes were good for something!

OK, two updates.

One, I'm wearing my top tucked in AND a belt. First time since 1991, I think. Part of my self-designed cognitive therapy.

And second, I asked a co-worker who is TINY how tall she is and what size she wears. Figured I'd add a size or so and that would be my goal, once and for all. So she's my height and wears a 4 - which I had already set as my goal size since I'm close to fitting in it already and will totally fit in it once I exercise off some of this fat. So apparently I really AM smaller than I think. Because seriously, she's tiny.

Oh, and I think I'm changing gyms.

[JeepGirl]

Yea!! Did you ever get a book?

I am proud of the belt and the tuck-in. U am far from tucking in but do have to wear a belt to keep some of my pants on!
