Lucky # Sevens- July 07 Bandsters

[distant0098 1]

Jackie - Like I have said a million times before only a fat person can understand another fat person - We don't judge those dirty little secerts cuz we all have them. We are all the same in so many way - I'm just not afaird to put it out there cuz i know that the majority here can relate to my story or issues about food..

Some have health issues for their weight problems - but most of us are fat cuz we ate too much and didn't exercise.

I love all of you here - I love my band - and love the new found energy that i have..

Well, gotta get back to work -

xoxo

Janet

All shucks, Indio...I love you tooo!!!

Sorry! This is getting to be a real challenge!! How about everyone message me...pm or here... your current weight, every Monday and I can update everyone of our progress.

Phyllser - this next month I'll be out more than in...just keep me on the list and I'll be sure to report back the day after Thanksgiving!

The Challenge - I've managed to stay away from the candy (not completely, but I'm doing MUCH better). The Challenge has also kick started my working out. I got out the pedometer (which works sporadically, but I get an idea of what I'm doing/not doing) and I've been out chopping wood everyday and swimming a couple times a week with the kids. So all in all, if I don't lose any serious pounds, I've won already! Now, if the weather just cooperates...we've still got a PILE of logs to chop before they freeze to the ground! We had 3 inches of snow last night and woke up to RAIN! Oh yeah, that was NIIIIICCCCCEEEEE! NOT!

[jackie506 1]

Hello my Lucky # 7's. Well we went to our Halloween party last night and guess what...............DH and I (raggedy ann and andy) won 3rd place!!!!! HAHA It was sooooo fun! We lost to a little boy (kids always win though because they are just so darn cute!!) and my mom and her boyfriend. They really deserved it though!! They went as a 1920's flapper girl and gangster. They looked awsome!!!

I danced the night away and had a couple of strawberry strippers. Didn't look at the calorie count on those because I prob would have freaked out!!! I don't feel guilty though because it was a special occassion and I do not do that very often.

I have to tell you though I was so proud of myself. All this yummy food around and I didn't over eat and didn't even think of the food after I ate. I had made my maidrites (93% lean ground beef and salsa) and I ate the meat and a very few (not even a full serving) of chips and that is all I ate. I was very satisfied and didn't feel deprived at all. I think I might just be winning this head thing and my thinking is definately changing. I wasn't worried about 'how am I going to get more food and not be noticed' or eating just a little and starving myself because I didn't want to look like a pig. I was more worried about getting out on that dance floor and gettin my groove on. LOL What a NSV!!!

Anyway sorry I was rambling.

I am down 2 pounds for the Thanksgiving challenge!! Haven't gained yet today from my last night adventures but sometimes it takes a couple of days. I have ramped up my exercise and kept myself moving today hoping to ward of gain and maybe burn extra because of last night.

Hope everyone else is doing great!!!

I'd like to be on the list too! 291/281 - I just wish my scale would match up a little closer to the Dr. scale - I weighed 273 the morning before my appointment, and the scale at the Dr. said 291 - was very disappointed with my loss - a little over 6 pounds, but not as good as I'd thought. Usually the scale is only off by 6 pounds compared to the one at home. Argh.

I'm starting to worry about my next fill appointment, I scheduled it for the day before Thanksgiving - and will be on liquids for the big turkey day - wonder if gravy counts. Kim

[lindaa 1]

Congrats Jackie! You sound like a "normal" person who really enjoyed a party without treating it as another eating opportunity. That is HUGE, and I am proud of you! Thanks for sharing your NSV with us!

Kim, you lost 37 pounds in 3 months. That's over 10 pounds a month. Nothing wrong with that! Good for you to schedule a fill for the day before Thanksgiving. THAT shows commitment!
