The positive I have taken away from two months of no weight loss, is that I seem to have found a workable method to stop weight gain. So, when I do manage to lose the weight I am confident I will be able to maintain it. Please don't think that I am denigrating any diet plan. There are many good ones out there, just not for me.

You will lose weight, it will just be slower than if you "diet." I would add drinking more water. I gave up sweet tea, I drank about a half gallon daily, as I drank so much water I couldn't drink tea anymore.

I just wanted to say HI and to wish you all a wonderful Sunday or whatever day is it in your part of the world.
I am feeling good this morning even if I was up at 6 am. It will take me 2 weeks to adjust to the time change. I wish they would just do away with it.
I got to visit with my folks last night, we hadn't seen them in 3 weeks. Dad is a long haul truck driver. He looked at me and said how much weight have you lost? He said your face looks smaller and your clothing is baggy. It felt real good to have someone notice. I think I will be getting new clothing for Christmas from them. I will really need them by then.
I will stop rambling now, guess I am in a talkative mood this morn.

Doesn't it make you feel great to have someone notice you've lost weight!

Well since I was out of bed more thia week and able to not live on bread and butter and had real food I would like you to know I LOST 2 LBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yipppppppeeeeeeeeee

Now I don't know if that counts as a loss to start my fat quilt. I have yet to make any blocks since I was not losing but gained. What do you think so I deserve 2 blocks or not?????????

You deserve two blocks!

It's funny, 185 is your panic weight, it's my next goal to reach. Life is all relative isn't it.

Carrie you are doing great. and wishes do come true you will get to be 185 just keep plugging away. but I thought you said hubby said once you have fat you never go back do you want to be thin or just plump not fat?????????? I think it is great you are down 2 sizes I wear stretchie everything so I know some stuff is bigger but I don't know how many sizes I went down. The funniest was when my underpants here falling off. Since last Jan I lost 26 lb so I guees it will take me another year to lose the other 24. As long as we are all doing this together I guess I will continue. I really think if it wasn't for everyone on this thread I would have given up months ago.
