Hey all


Oh that comment pink! I heard the same words from my mothers mouth...you used to be sooo cute and now you look so old....nice! She was trying to make me see sense i think and has since admitted that she has been worried sick abt my weight for a while. However, last week she greeted my with "Oh my god you've lost a chin!!" which i think was a compliment - but a very back handed one! Ahhh the mama always speaks her mind!

Hope everyone is doing great

JamesWagner is on a distinguished road
I had weight problems ever since I can remember. I was over 200lbs at the age of 14. Nothing i tried worked and I was always so frusterated with everyone, the stares people gave me, the comments people made, people would look at me and say "Just eat less food," but nobody seems to understand exactly what it takes to lose weight. I was so desperate i would work through the week minimum wage just so i could buy another weight loss product that was supposedly guaranteed to lose weight, but few of them work and the ones that do don't work as well as they say. I was about to give up on trying to lose weight and just accept it but then i found this. "Weight loss for idiots" it sounds stupid and childish but it honestly did help me and unlike the other products i've used in the past the guaranteed weight loss was reasonable. I lost 9lbs in 2 weeks and 20lbs more in the next month. I'm now 17 6"1 160lbs and I don't look back on this product. If you want to know more about it http://corcol3211.4idiots.hop.clickbank.net/ I highly recommend it for anyone with weight problems as serious as mine were.

Wow, I suppose this happens alot. I know that's how my Step-Grandma is with my mom and I. There was one day she told my mom, "Oh, I like that shirt... it hides your fat." However, my mom doesn't use her words for motivation... she just gets upset and hopes the lady gets run over.

I however, do use what she says as motivation. I haven't seen her in awhile and have lost weight, so I know she will be like, "Veronica, you've lost weight. Now you are pretty enough to find a boyfriend." LoL. She always tells me that. "If you get skinny you'll have a boyfriend." You see, my Step-Grandma speaks her mind too like your mom Allie. Just she tries to sugar coat it by saying something nice before she says what she really thinks. "U look so pretty V, if you were skinny you'd be beautiful.."

I have a doctors appointment today and after weighing myself today, I'm so proud of myself.

When I went a month ago I weighted 251 pounds.

Now I weight 244! Woo Hoo!!

This was a good month. Correction... a great month!

sharoo is on a distinguished road
Talking Memorial Day has come and gone

Weather was a little iffy, but at least the tornado didn't hit us. And that's kind of how the long weekend went. It was good to get three days off work, but somehow I spent hours making a new necklace instead of doing all the spring cleaning that was on my list. And it's a ridiculous 5-foot long glass necklace that I can't quite figure out how to wear. LOL

On the plus side, I also spent hours on my bike, just riding around the city checking out yard sales and cemetery open houses (no, REALLY!). In fact, my husband and I were just riding back from the Sunday cemetery tour when we were hit by a cold blast of wind from the north and looked over our shoulders to see a wall of dark cloud looming ominously over the northern half of the city. We skedaddled for home, and didn't find out until the next day that an F4 tornado had been devastating a northern suburb at that very moment. Fifty houses reduced to splinters, another hundred damaged. I felt vaguely guilty that we didn't give that wall of weather another thought once we realized we weren't going to get rained on.

As far as dieting goes, the week was a wash. I did not stick to my planned diet (1600-1800 calories), but I did hit my exercise goal (2800 calories). In the end, I didn't lose anything, but I didn't gain anything back either. Still 216.

However, I haven't had the nerve to weigh myself since that big Memorial Day BBQ yesterday. I ate mostly grilled meat and vegies, but the marinades were so salty that I probably gained 3 pounds of water weight. I think I won't depress myself with that knowledge.

Don't you just hate that? Sometimes it's all the courage I can muster to step on that thing. And I know there's a post about the Scale Mentality that I revisit every now and then, but still, I can handle 100 teens in a day, but stepping up 1.5 inches scares the crap out of me.

What's worse, though (I learned from Weight Watchers), is thinking that you've done a really perfectly great job and finding out that you mysteriously gained 3 pounds instead of losing. At least it's just me looking and not some smug blonde ***** (not that I hate blondes, but it's easier to imagine them blonde).

Have a great Tuesday!!!
