TGIF, I got to the gym 5X this week. I got a fill on wednesday. I only got 1 more cc. I am going back on the 18th for another one. I was very upset when I went to get filled and saw I gained 6 lbs this month with all the working out I did. The PA said, don't worry about it. Increase protein and keep it up. It will all come off. So, I need to go back to tracking. It is easy when we are on liquids as I do mostly protein shakes. I am going to have to make sure I bring one with me at all times and especially when I work out. So, hopefully I am back on track. I am now up about 16 lbs since my slip. Hope everyone has a great weekend. Laurel

hey there you glad to hear you doing good. well i did make it to the gym 3x this week. i have gotten a bit discouraged with the gym due to them saying i have not paid them in 5 months but, i pay them every month i just come in a pay cash instead of them taking it off my credit card because in feb 09 they charged my card 2x's so i started paying cash. now there saying i owe them 80. i did manage to come up with a few reciets but not all. im not that good with saving them. but, since this has happen i have been keeping up with them. so my mom is taking me this weekend to get an precor/elliptical one that can hold my weight. also i called my bank to see if they came throut my account or tried to and when she checked they never did last time they tried or did was back in feb. but, there saying they did. wouldnt you bank see that some thing tried to collect or did. i think the gym is full of it. it took them 3months to refund my money from when they over charged me back in feb. so im looking to go into the ymca maybe gonna go and check it out and see if they are fat friendly:biggrin:.

well that is what is going on with me guys how everyone has a nice weekend. also im trying to lose 20lbs my sept. 20th when i go to bahamas.

Hello ladies dont get discouraged we have to ride this out and take it all the way. I have been very busy with my mother in law and mother but I am working in swimming everyday for at least 30 min. It helps my body as well as my mind. My DH surprised me and he is taking me to vegas on the 21st for 4 days......I am so excited. He made arrangements to have our daughter and son come and take care of my mom and his. I cannot wait to get away for a few days its been a long time since we have gone away. Stay strong ladies and lets DO IT.

Love You Ladies

Rose, I will also be in vegas but I will be there from the 22nd to the 29th. Maybe we could meet up at one point in time there? You deserve a nice break. China, you don't have long to wait either for vacation. I have never been to the bahamas, you will have to let me know how it is. I hope we all are doing well. I have been eating more protein but the weight doesn't seem to want to come off. I am going to keep at it. I do feel so much better on the whole and I can feel muscles I never knew I had, lol. Have a great day everyone. Laurel

Hi everyone. Stopping in to say hello. I am doing okay, but still need more exercise. Work has been so busy that it is hard to get anything extra in. Went to the beach on vacation and had lots of seafood. I let myself indulge 2 nites with my favorite keylime pie. It was wonderful. Yesterday I had a working lunch, ate salad.The dessert was raspberry brownies or chess squares. Oh, how I wanted one. But I didn't eat any. I can't tell you how many times in the afternoon I was thinking about them. Sweets are a downfall for me. Still, I am losing but slow. Down to 186 and keep telling myself if I could just exercise more it would go faster. I was buying size 14 and just before vacation bought a pair of capris in a size 12. My stomach area is still my biggest problem; not much of a rear end & legs are skinny....but my stomach was so stretched I do have a good amount of sagging. Hope everyone is well & have a good week-end.

The journey doesn't seem as long as it has been....last Sept. I started WW & lost 22 pounds. It will be a year on Sept. 22 that I began. I am much happier about myself & that I am off of bp meds & everything else (blood work) is normal. Just have to keep working at it every day & some days I just don't want to :thumbup:

Take care!

hey you glad to see you stoped by. well i know the feeling about wanted to do the sweets. i have the same problem, im so proud of you for not eating the brownie that is a big step and you should be proud as well. its baby steps like my mom says we didnt come out walking and taken we learned same with the weigth. one day at a time we will get there. excerise is important but, do what you can.

Hope we all had a good weekend. I had a busy one. Wednesday will be my last day for my summer run. School reopens on 9/2 so i will have almost 3 weeks off. I still haven't lost any weight but I am still working out atleast 4 days a week for 2 hours. It has to come off. I am going for a fill on the 18th. Then I will leave for vegas on the 22nd. Hope everyone is doing well. Laurel

I have enjoyed my last 2 days off. Yesterday, I went walking around my neighborhood for about an hour. Today I went to gym for my water aerobics. The weight is still not coming off but I am sticking to it. I go back to doctor's on tues. I will bring all info to them to see what is up. I am also starting to bruise easily. I hope everyone is doing well too. Laurel
