Aww, peach, feel better. Last weekend, a young friend had the stomach flu and texted me this wisdomic pearl: "On the upside, I'm losing mad weight!"

True true, Rath! Thanks for the feel better wishes.

My stomach is actually concave today. Never thought I'd say that. And, I think all of this heaving has actually toned my abs. Plus, I stepped on the scale this morning; wasn't that a treat (even if I look like hell!)

There's an upside to everything!

Concave?! Wow.

Posted: 3/26/07 at 2:52pm

Well, relatively speaking.

I look weak and yukky though, not bikini-hot.

Yay Rath! That's great!

I am at 130 today. Hoping to join you in the "one twos" club by next week (my sickness weight loss doesn't count, because it crept right back to normal once I was able to eat again!).

You skinny thing, you! :)

Ha! I'm not skinny yet - I'm only 5'1". Twenty more lbs. and I'll be happy.

Rath, that's awesome. 130 is my goal. I want to be thin, but still curvy. I'm 5'3".

Starting the health club at the park district next week. I can't wait.

WHOA!!!!!

That's INCREDIBLE! You GO, girl!!!!

Posted: 3/29/07 at 8:36am

Thanks! I was really strict. After the first two days of bitchiness and headaches it got easier and I was okay.

Posted: 3/29/07 at 8:37am

That was very nice of you to not act out here, like the rest of us do.

I don't know HOW (I was kinda bad this past week), but I lost 2 pounds. But I think I was super bloated last week. So, we really do have to have patience with the ups and downs of our weight tracking.

And, I must brag that I am at my lowest weight since early November--but I was flabby then. I ain't now! :)

papa, how's the week been going?

as for myself, I've got to lay off these double stuffed Oreos...

[brdlwyr]

Posted: 3/30/07 at 10:52am

I am stuck at the 15 lb loss, but I do feet much better! And,I can wear many new pants that have been on hangars!

Congrats, B!

What are you going to do, to switch it up to continue the loss? Has the Mrs. been supporting the health regimen?

Alright, bitches! If your Easter was anything like mine, you are on a SHAME SPIRAL. Chocolate marshmallow eggs! Carrot Cake with creamy icing! PEEPS!

Let's push it into bathing suit season, troops!

Ok, so my weight related news is kinda funny. I ended my membership online. So, basically, I'm on WW all by myself. Not that I have actually been counting points lately. But, I prob will again soon just to make sure my habits are in check. After over a year, I pretty much know points and portions, etc. And, I do have a points calculator. So I realized the website was no longer worth paying for.

Instead, I am now paying for a gym membership. NYSC. It's a very wild thing. I had been at a gym in Houston, but I didn't know what I was doing. And I was fat. And I wasn't eating well. So, I was just one of those people who you'd see at the gym who never got any less fat.

Well, I've been working out at home for 4 1/2 months. I'm not fat anymore for the most part. I know what I'm doing, and I have a good friend who is helping me with that which I do not know. It's a whole new game. And, I feel very excited about it. Don't get me wrong--the gym is very intimidating. Gorgeous people everywhere who know what they are doing (or seem to very well). But, you just have to say screw all that and forge ahead.

I share all this because I imagine others have the same fears. I imagine others have been or are currently in that place I was in before. And, hopefully this positivity will help. We can change ourselves. We do not have to be fat. Or out of shape. Or unhealthy. We can change ourselves. Nothing is in stone.

"If your Easter was anything like mine, you are on a SHAME SPIRAL."

Is it wrong that I just thought of Stuart Smalley?!

jrb, you are doing great. Congrats.

Passover has been easy for me this year because I can't eat any bread/cereal/pasta now, anyway. I go back to the nutritionist on the 19th...I refuse to get on a scale before then because it just messes with my head. I feel good, though.

It's been awfully quiet around here lately....

Now for my bitchfest.

I CAN'T STOP EATING.

I don't know what my problem is. I have been on a month long binge. And all my usual tricks to break the cycle are not working. I just eat and eat and eat and EAT.

WHAT DO I DO!??!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

look at yourself naked in the mirror, then you'll stop eating
