Oh heavens everyone! Thank you so much! Wow, I was just drop jawed to read all the responses and appreciate each of you more than you'll know.

Thank you!!!

Just a quick post this morning 'cause I'm running late (too much time on the 'puter reading

).

Scale showed another pound evaporated overnight

! Wow!! Didn't expect that one at all. I stepped on the scale with one eye squinted and the other one shut, thinking "lite" thoughts as I looked at the scale numbers (my scale read out is eye height on the wall--connected to the scale with a telephone type spiral cord). I was fearful of seeing a gain (thus not being at 30# lost) but instead it was 31#. YES!!

So that was my reason for a bounce in my step and a smile on my face at 4:45 a.m.....otherwise this ole' lady isn't smiling and isn't stepping lightly at that hour.

Hope it is-------nope, change that to "make it a" great day! We have control and power over how we view our day......yes some days suck and there is little to be smiling over......but we can chose to focus on the positives in amongst all the bad happenings even if the only positive is that we've refused to give into focusing on the negatives.

My best to you all!

Way to go!

I had told myself I wasn't going to turn into one of those people who step on the scale 5 times a day, but I bought a new digital scale and have found myself weighing myself every morning and a few times later in the afternoon. I know what you mean about seeing a loss (saw a 2lb one today) and having an extra bounce in my step!

Tawanda, it's funny, this morning I did the same thing on my scale - I was only 1/10 of a pound into the 40# club yesterday and I was afraid I'd gained! I did not see a whole pound drop like you, but I'm still in it! And we are both bouncing around today - I feel like I'm on a catwalk here at work for some reason when I walk down the hall. I must look ridiculous strutting around!

I am loving the mental image! :lol:

Just a fast check in. Today is the end of my eleventh week on MF and I am down 31.5# . FitDay says that is an average of 2.86# lost per week. I'm very pleased with the loss so far and the weekly average.

I didn't get much sleep last night so I'm dragging big time. It is going to be an interesting day.

bikipatra · by **bikipatra** » April 27th, 2007, 7:40 am

Congrats! You are doing better than I am. My average weekly change is 2.44. Good job!

Pashta · by **Pashta** » April 27th, 2007, 8:24 am

Mine's 2.6. Guess we're pretty close eh?

Tawanda~ That's a great average loss. :mrgreen:

I don't know what mine is, but now you have me wondering :scratch:

I don't think it is anywhere near as good as yours. Congratulations, you're doing great!!!!

I forgot to mention it is my 22nd week. I have posted gains a few times or very small losses.
