This is really going to be a struggle for me but I need a short-term goal instead of my great big goal!

I just wanted to welcome all the new comers to the Labor Day Challenge!!! Its so great to have you. I know I usually update on Mondays, but I happy to report that a few days on liquids really does help with the weight loss plateau. I'm down another pound. Its so hard not to get frustrated when the weight loss is slow...

Its Monday again, so I'm back to tell of my progress. The month of June has not been a huge sucess like I'd hoped, but I did lose 4 pounds, which I know is normal, but I'm so close to my goal weight I just want to get there. But I'm trying to be positive...so I thinking good thoughts and July is going to happy and sucessfull. Good thoughts to everyone.

GO MARY!!! :smile2:

I go to the doc tomorrow. I am not weighing myself until then. My home scale loves me, but I need to focus on the doc's scale for my "official" WL in their files. hee hee

Can I join you guys too? I just found this forum. I was banded Aug. 6/06! Feeling scared :thumbup:

cause I haven't been able to lose weight for 6 months and I don't want this to be the end of my weight loss. I need a jumpstart. Thought the support and motivation might help?

It's Monday again, so here I am. This week just flew by, but not a suprise since it was a short work week. Although there has no change in my weight I do have some NSV to report.

I was at a couple of parties this weekend and had a really good time. Alot of people have notice my weight loss and were saying how great I looked. Having never been one who receives alot of attention, this new amount of attention was kind of overwhelming. I mean I thanked everyone, but I felt like poeple expected me to have more self eestem or something. Before, when I was heavier, I was really shy...now I feel like people want me to me more out going (which I'd like to be) but I feel like I'm just not used to it. And I know I shouldn't care about what other people think, but its hard.

Also this morning I went for a walk. And since I've been trying to add in more running, I tired running for a little bit longer and finally was able to!

So the moral of my story is, try not focus so much on the weight loss this week and think about all the great new things I'm finally able to do.
