I know exactly how you feel. I was so close to my weight loss goal then I just kept finding excuses to cheat, then I stopped keeping track totally, now I'm up 8 pounds. I have got to get back on track before I gain any more and have to go up a size.

......serves you right for postin' that monkey pic.....

I totally understand! Where I'm at right now, I'm on the cusp of being between two sizes. I'd just like to get back to clothes fitting like they normally do, with some toned muscle, and in a healthy bmi range. I am SO close.

And I know what you mean about excuses to cheat. It's a vicious cycle. If I've done it once I'm more likely to do it again and repeat bad habits.

I need a mini clothing rant. Since we're all friends here, you're going to get the joy of hearing it.

I went out yesterday in search of shorts. Specifically, bermuda shorts. They look better on me. I did not find any. Strike that. I did not find any that fit or were designed well. Or that I was willing to pay the exorbitant amount they were charging for cheap...ahem...

Anyhoo...

I have gained weight after surgery. I am counting calories now and exercising at least four times a week, if not more, and I've included weight training (more muscle burns more fat). It is so frustrating to work so hard and not yet see the benefit. When I was carb cycling I lost the weight but it's a very hard discipline to maintain, I found. And surgery, a little depression, and a lot of inactivity really threw a kink in my works.

I am getting back into the swing of things now but I want this weight gone yesterday. Know what I mean?

Grr.

I know how it is not to be able to find clothes that fit.

Sorry you are feeling down. You will get back on track and feeling better soon.

...same here, but I had limited time yesterday after school.....did three loads of laundry and cleaned my DS's bathroom, from top to bottom - scrubbed toilet, sink, tub [and tiled wall in tub area], and floor and redecorated to kind of a 'beachy theme' [but not overkill]. All this before I went back to the school to help out with our Talent Show....

That IS a lot of work. I'm tired just thinking about it.

Then they should lay down till the feeling passes.

Good idea.

Monday. It's raining here. My sinuses are miserable. I've taken 4 advil so far along with decongestant. Blahhhh

Sat I helped a friend clean camps for 5 hours. Then in the evening I took care of kids so the people I work for could go out. They were supposed to be home by 9pm, but didn't get home until 10pm. I could barely keep my eyes open. It was a long day. I don't normally do weekend nights.

Everyone I know has had a really hard time with allergies this year.

Wow. That is past my bed time!

[PrincessInOz]

Looks lovely, Kimmar. Love your colour scheme.

I didn't ask before because I couldn't really tell from the one picture....but are those glass tiles? I have something similar in my bathroom.
