Today’s Monday weigh-in was a little disappointing, although yesterday’s wardrobe was uplifting — not even taking the new bra into account!
I gained a pound, according to the scale, so this week’s official number is 181. <sigh>
However, I wore my “college jeans” yesterday and not only was there no “muffin top” spilling out over [...]
I decided to try the McDonald’s bacon and cheese angus snack wrap tonight for dinner. Several months ago I had commented that with wanting to watch calories I could no longer afford to eat the 1/3 pound angus burgers — although I thought they were delicious!
As I drove by the McDonald’s on the way home [...]

Katie asked me recently what my goal weight was. She asked nearly a week ago and I have found it so difficult to find the time to respond, although I’ve really given it quite a bit of thought!
If you were to look on the blog header, you think that my GW (goal weight) is 168, [...]
I thought it would be interesting to share my calorie intake for last week, per day, and include what three items each day represented the highest portion of those calories.
Monday, June 28 — 11o0 calories
Macaroni and cheese (195), Cinnamon Life (120) , S’Mores (130)
Tuesday, June 29 — 1296 calories
Mandarin Orange Cake (287), Tuna Patty (217), [...]
This morning the scale said 190, and that means another two pounds this week! Yay! There was actually one day in the middle of the week where I was teased with 189. That’s ok though… I will see it again soon. Then 188, which will mean 80 pounds lost. You will get to see that [...]
This morning was weigh-in and I was happy with the results — 192. That means two pounds lost since last Monday. I need more weeks like that!
I was pondering something yesterday, as I diligently entered every measly calorie I consumed… will I always have to do that? Will I always have to take the time [...]

It’s funny how my Monday weights are never as “low” as they perhaps were at a previous part of the week. Makes me want to report my lowest weight of the week and not necessarily the weight I had on Monday. But, as Katie said in a previous posting’s comment, reaching a weight once and [...]
I forgot to mention, in the excitement over posting about my Mothers Day gift, that in this week’s weigh-in I was at 198. I had gotten as low as 197 this past week, but with eating out two meals on Mothers Day, I went over my calorie goal by 200 and even though I managed [...]
I’m two months in a row for meeting my monthly goals! At the end of March, I said I wanted to lose five pounds in April. I knew that with two family birthdays (including mine) and Easter chocolate temptations, it would be difficult to lose much more than that. Well, in April I lost six!
