KNA....great work.....what were you thinking only to weigh every two weeks....LOL Let's get cheers like that every week....

**KNA1986** · May 23, 2004, 01:28 AM

I was thinking "What if I don't have the time. I don't want to upset everyone by not keeping to a schedule!"

**Elmark** · May 23, 2004, 01:37 AM

Oh, that was why....if you don't make it one day, just let Mystique know your weight the next time you're online....don't worry....

**KNA1986** · May 23, 2004, 02:00 AM

Aite, can do!

I start my job tomorrow (techincally today)! I'm so nervous yet excited! I'll be baggin groceries at one of the chain stores here. They have 'secret shoppers' come in and grade the store once a week! :yikes And they write down names too!!!! If you forget something, it lowers the stores total and the management talks to you. :yikes :yikes I'm afraid of bagging wrong. They made me sit infront of a computer and expect me to be 100% perfect. :sadblinky I'll get it though cuz I am :guns

**Elmark** · May 23, 2004, 02:06 AM

KNA....I'm sure you'll do fine. If you make a mistake, just smile. A smile will get you a very long way..... Good luck on the new job.... (this is a secret, but I used to be a secret shopper....LOL....so, just smile and be friendly, that's what really counts)

Didn't get to weigh in Friday

Friday, I didn't get to weigh in and since I don't have a scale I have to wait until Monday. Is that okay? To weigh 2x in one week so I don't mess up the schedule. Thanks so much for your comments. Thankfully, no one said anything mean to me. Except for my mother her comments that she thinks are nice aren't always. She said: "I guess you have lost weight. I didn't think you'd still be able to fit into that dress". So anyway it went alright. But then that night I saw a friend I haven't saw in about a month and I didn't even have to tell her I was on Adkins. She just said when I went through the door: "Wow, I can tell you've lost weight". I'm able to wear some capri's that I couldn't wear when I was trying on my summer clothes in the back of the closet a month ago. Now for those that have lost weight: I'm so proud of you!!!! Great job!! Keep up the good work!!

I am glad everything went well. I also went through the mom thing, and its so funny because I had the nicest mom in the world. But, sometimes moms can say things and not understand how painful they can be. I remember mine saying once "you used to be so pretty". She never meant to hurt me, just as yours didn't .. but a moms words can cut straight to the heart. (I need to remember that for my own kids LOL)
Keep up the wonderful Loss! Proud of you!

**KNA1986** · May 23, 2004, 11:38 PM

My mom's like that about my weight. I know she doesn't mean to hurt me but she tells me "you'd be way more pretty than those girls (who happen to be drop dead beautiful) if you just lost 60 or more pounds, then you'd be a knockout!". That's always hurtful. Yesterday she said I was beautiful; but all mom's have to say that. Anyways, I told her "I know I am" and she looked at me with a shocked look and said I was conceited(!) which I don't think I am, I just love myself a lot

.

She's also said I used to be beautiful and skinny. But that was when I was like 6 or 7 and I don't think that counts! She even pulls out pictures to show me and compare me now which is 10 years later, to then. :bang
