That scale seems like a good idea! I exercise quite a bit so it's hard for me to believe that everything is fat. 160 is not bad by any means, but it's incredibly hard for me to lose weight, so there isn't a point of stressing myself to lose 30 pounds when I can weigh what I do and still look great.
I recently went through my closet and got rid of tons of clothes that I used to wear when I lost about 40 pounds sophomore year of high school. It was a bit upsetting at first, but then I realized that I'm not a girl anymore and there was no way I could fit into those jeans with my hips now!
I bought some jeans before college started and a couple of them are starting to get pretty loose. That is the bad thing about going up and down, I get tired of buying clothes all the time!
We will be there May 25-June 9, seems like we will be missing each other!
Snow~ when we started things back up here, I was thinking about you and wondering how you were doing. I figured you must have started college...wow how time flies! Glad you'll be checking in from time to time!
I appreciate that you thought about me!
I know, time has been flying, this past semester seemed so long at the time, but when it was over I wondered what happened!
For some reason I completely forgot about WISH, I was MIA from all the other DIS forums too until break. From what it looks like I should already get to start on my major in the Fall, I willl be going into graphic design and photography/film, I'm really excited.
Already have gotten 5 cups of water in today. Relaxing at home until class starts back up. It's easy to continuously have a cup and straw in front of you while you read TRs and get your water in! I'm going to apologize ahead of time for my continuous rambling; I talk a lot.
Apparently 5 miles was a little rough on my hip yesterday. Walking around the house there is some pain on my right side, nothing too bad. Skipping the running and walking today for some pilates and yoga.
I also have a question, if anyone has ever heard about drinking a cup of water every hour? I know the range is 6-8 cups, but on a health blog I read this and thought it was interesting. I got up the next day and tried it, but it was really a lot more difficult than I thought. After about 5 hours, I felt pretty sick, my stomach felt like it was bloated with water and I was going to the bathroom every 30 minutes. It felt like the only thing I was getting done was refilling my cup. I stopped after that, but I wondered how they came up with that conclusion?
eta: of course, just when I thought my rambling was over. I am very excited for my fitness class this semester. I don't like PE, I perfer doing things I like, but this is just a lecture about different muscles, workouts, etc so it'll be interesting. We are also required to get a physical test which tells us body fat, cardio ability and the like. I'm interested in finally seeing how my physical level compares!
I love weights, though, and I've missed them. But needless to say, my muscles are very sore. I concentrated on tummy, back, biceps and triceps and my upper body is pretty much crippled right now. Anyway, I'm hoping that exercise has contributed to the fact that I didn't lose quite as much as I wanted to this week. As my body gets used to the new exercises I'm doing, the lactic acid won't be so plentiful (hopefully) so it won't affect my weight (hopefully). That's my theory and I'm sticking to it! 
It's a value studio and I've been reading that you have a SUPER chance of scoring a savannah view with these! Anyone know about that?
I always check my weight three times if I have moved my scale, just to make sure it's level and take the matching two out of three... but an entire lb from just turning around?? I'm thinking I need to change the battery.
