Good morning Losers, of which I am one!!! Yea!!! Just hopped on the scale and it said 179.8. That gives me a loss for the week of 5.7 pounds. No doubt I will be making a green Quilt. Keep up the good work everybody, naked or not.
Hugs,
JudyFry

Last post for now. I haven't had a Dr Pepper for several days now. I am still headachy but the "dying any minute" feeling is gone. I drank about 3 gallons of unsweet, decaf tea since Friday. It's not Dr. P but it's okay. And I carry water bottles with me everywhere.

So next week I expect some major weight loss. Leave y'all behind to eat my dust. (I don't have a turtle).

Why don't you eat a nice turtle sandwich. I bet it would make you feel better....
I'm not the one who started the whole turtle thing!!! That would be Tru's fault and her nasty mind.

I'm being good for lunch. I'm having a green salad with chicken, when what I really want is the pepperoni pizza that little man is eating.

I KNOW.... I"m shocked..I was all down thinking I had not lost any, and probably GAINED... so it was a pleasant shock!---

I even fell off the wagon and went out with friends for drinks ( maybe it was the slow dancing?/pool playing?) I tried to go up and down our stairs an extra time or two.. (but walking is difficult with my health limitations) DH insists we go out and feast once a week!! ( we are on the same diet)

I am trying to stay with under 1200 cal/per day( lower carb, low fat, lower sodium), lots of portion control... LOTS of water ( maybe it's from all the walking abacking forth to the bathroom to get rid of all that water??), started limiting my Diet Mt Dew to 1 per day( it's my coffee/caffiene fix)if I get hungry, I nibble on popcorn or carrot sticks or low fat/low calorie yogurt( haven't made my own yet) but that is figured into my 1200 cal.

I did get my hair cut... u think??? naaaaaaaa

I'm sure next week will be a slower rate... don't u always loose more right at first... all the water ?

What ever caused the wt loss, I'm tickled pink!!!

I didn't start it Missy did months ago. I don't remember why or how she started it but she did. Then again for Missy to start something there doesn't have to be a reason.
