    Finally, the scale moved again!

    Last week, it was only a half pound, which was the first drop in two weeks. Today, though, I was down another two pounds. 2Big always reminds us that we're not in a race. And that's good, 'cause I'd be one of the last to the finish line. Fortunately, I'm well aware that getting to that line is the only important part, not how quickly we manage to do it.

    Hey, I'm happy!

    I was going to say, "so where did you move it?"

    I agree that it's totally not a race. You are the man, Chris! I'm soooooo excited for you!

              Good for you, Chris! So, the scales do begin to move again? That is great news.
              149.8/no weigh/ 119



              1st goal: 139 (earlier weight)
              what the rungs mean to me:
              rung 1 - more veggies
              rung 2 - dairy (some milk in coffee)
              rung 3 - seeds, nuts (mostly sprinkled on salads)
              rung 4 - berries, melon
              rung 5 - wine -
              rung 6 - beans, hummus
              rung 7 - other fruits
              rung 8 - carrots/ potatoes (nah, prolly not)
              rung 9 - whole grains (fresh Dutch breads...)
              Major Goal - 128 lbs/ healthy range
              (on to pre-maintenance)

                Thanks, Shannon (and all the others who've replied). It is good news, but, I'm so proud of the fact that you survived those comfort food temtations and didn't let the MIL win that round. I've no doubt, now, that you've proven to yourself that you can, and will, hold your own against her for the rest of the week.

                  WOO HOO! That's wonderful!

                  The bad news is that it moved to ME. Yup, I must be retaining water again. <sigh> But I'll hold on to it until it's time to pass it on to someone else......it won't come back to you!
