D- Slimfast shake, 1/2 grapefruit
S- 10 baby carrots, 2 Tbsp FF ranch dip

Water - gallon

Exercise - did 2 miles on ski machine; going to do some stretching when kids go to bed

Thank you everyone for being so supportive. It feels really good losing weight even if it is only a few pounds. I think it was Gail who said we didn't put the weight on overnight so we can't expect it to disapper overnight. That is so true and I just have to remember that and not get discouraged when I don't see immediate results.

Hi Liz,

You are doing an amazing job. You and Gail are right. I took us years to put this weight on. You are getting results and should be very proud of yourself.

Take care,
Beth

Dropping by to say hi. I agree, you are doing great.

Way to go Liz! When is your next weigh in??

Good going w/ the exercise! I think I already told you that I'm really enjoying the Optima slim fast. Why have that extra sugar when I don't need it

Looks like we're preparing for the same storm. We're actually off school Monday for end of the quarter...so if we get something Sat. it won't affect school Monday. Just make for a poopy weekend. Stay warm!

Way to go Liz!!!! Happy Friday!

Hi everyone and thanks.

Sundie - I plan out what I am going to eat the night before and stick to that. It's not to hard because I am eating almost every 2 hours so I never get hungry. At 7 pm I go brush my teeth and use Listerine, nothing tastes good after that so I don't munch at night. Now I just need to be more disciplined with exercising.

Michelle - Thanks. I just need to step up exercising a notch. But at least I am doing something, right?

Gail - I have made Wed my official weigh in day but we all know I am on it multiple times during the day. You're right about the Optima. I did buy it when it was on sale but usually buy the Target brand. I think I will switch back to the Optima even though it costs more because it has 190 calories instead of 230 in the Target brand. Two of those a day is an extra 80 calories I can use somewhere else.

Jen - Happy Friday to you to and thanks.

You are doing great Liz!

Thanks Jen!
I am so sad. The canopy that covers our deck collapsed from all the snow. I had been knocking the snow off of it yesterday but all the snow overnight made it buckle. I knew we should have taken it down. Lesson learned. Here is a picture of it and a picture of my DD and DS in the snow. We had alot of fun but the wind is really whipping so we could only stay out a short time.

 

[sarahsmom73]

Great Pictures Liz! Thanks for sharing!
