OK, so today is the first day I have weighed since last week. I stepped on the scales after everyone was gone this morning. I was really scared that I had gained weight (I have cheated a few times with this mushie stage). I have no restriction at all yet and i get hungry and end up with hungar headaches so i take a few bites of chicken salad or something. Anyways, the scales have finally moved again.:sad: I have now lost 14 pounds which brings me to 250lbs even. I am really excited today about this.

I started the night before last with my walking. I took it to the extreme and walked 2 miles. I ended up with inflamation in my right heal and wasn't able to walk without sharp pain all day yesterday. Today it is much better with just a little bit of pain that subsides after I have been up and on it for a while.

I have decided that on the nights that my son has football practice and my daughter has cheerleading practice I am going to walk the track instead of just sitting there watching them. That will give me a total of 4 nights that I will be able to walk atleast a mile. I think this will help me with the weight loss. Also, I have been eating refried Beans and lowfat cheese alot lately and I believe that has hendered my weight loss. They told me that it would be fine yet with my next stage I am suppose to stay away from it. I don't understand that part but oh well.

I'm off now to go eat my 3 tablespoons of my hamemade Chicken Salad and watch Charmed. Hope to hear from you ladies soon.

Woo Hoo Stacy!

That is a great idea on how to get your exercise in.

Way to go!!!!

Congrats! Be careful though. Don't let that trick you into thinking cheating every once in a while is ok. If you think that, than you will cheat more and get into a downward spiral. I have been guilty of that :/

Otherwidse keep up the good work!
