Notes:
Happy Thanksgiving!
Are you excited about your big turkey dinner today? I know I am!
I’m determined not to gain wait this holiday season and to be honest I don’t really get why so many people just accept the fact that it’s normal to gain weight during the holiday season. It’s just a couple meals, right?
I made a point this week to work out as usual (or more) and really focus on keeping everything except for the Thanksgiving meal as "normal" as possible. In fact, this morning I went for a 31 mile bike ride. Now I know I can eat whatever I want to and not feel one bit guilty. 😉
I’m most looking forward to dessert – pumpkin cheesecake…yum!
I’m going to J and AJ’s. They’ve also invited a few friends that I know so it should be a great time.
Enjoy the day!

WooHoo and Hallelujah!
Finally this morning my scale is my friend again. 😉 I got a good solid 199.8 reading. lol
Hey, I’ll take it after fighting with the scale all week.
I must say that I’ve been feeling absolutely amazing lately. Reaching this goal is a big one. I WILL not go back to being above 200 again – ever. (err….unless I do something crazy during Thanksgiving this week) You have my word on that! It’s true what they say about nothing tasting as good as thin feels. BUT I would substitute the word thin for healthy, fit or something like this.
I feel good about Thanksgiving coming up – really looking forward to spending the day with J and AJ and really I’m not worried about the food. I’ve had 1 1/2 really solid weeks of good exercise and intend to keep it up as the weather has been so gorgeous here. Most days I’m biking and walking or doing 2 walks.
OK, cross your fingers for me that I have this (or better) as my "official" weigh-in weight tomorrow. If not, I really might do serious damage to my scale!
Hope your weekend has been great! Keep it up – I know that you’re reaching your own milestones. Please do share if you feel so inclined because I do love to celebrate with you all.
God Bless!
Yes – this is what I feel like doing this week! Grrrrrr!!!!!
No, I haven’t thrown the scale out yet, but I might do if the stinkin thing doesn’t show me below 200 soon. lol
I am SO close this week and determined. My scale (which reads to the 10th) keeps going between 200.4 or 200.2 and 199.8 – seriously! I refuse to count it as less than 200 until it is actually there for me when I step on the scale twice with the same reading. Yikes! Have I really gotten that crazy for the scale?!
Let’s talk about this…
I SO don’t want to be this way and I admit that I do step on the scale every morning (at least) even tho my "official" weigh-in day is Monday. I think I’m going to have to make myself NOT step on the scale except for Mondays and Fridays – just as a check-in point before the weekend.
I’m going to attempt to do this AFTER I reach my big milestone of getting under 200. I think that’s fair. So I can probably obsess for a few more days. Hopefully not more than this. I set a weekly goal for myself this week to reach 198 which would be fantastic at my 80lb loss mark.
The scale is really just one way to monitor how we’re doing. When I get really frustrated with the numbers, I remind myself of the inches I’ve lost, the fact that I am feeling so amazing and healthy and the way my clothes are fitting.
Whew! We’re almost there folks…keep going!
🙂
