Hmmm...I thought my body was different today......
So, I decided to get on the scale before I dressed for the gym......

And OH MY GOD......

I've lost two pounds


Celebrate with me!

7. My dear Miss Marmelstein!
Don't worry, sweetie! You will always be able to recognize me!

I actually like my face and hair......

But the part that distresses me the most is my awful apple belly.....:cry:

But even it is slowly yielding to my regimen of diet and exercise...

5. I suppose congratulations are in order
Although from your pics, it doesn't look like you have 2 extra pounds to lose!

:bounce: To Health!

11. My dear Spacemom!
Trust me, I do have pounds to lose still!

I now weigh 158......when I was a newlywed 41 years ago, I weighed 125!

Now that was underweight...and I was sick a lot.....NO immune system!

I'd really like to get down to 150, and then reassess my situation...

Thanks! Yes, To Health! :toast:

23. Pretty well.
Not to get too much into it, but I've been able to keep my pain level down between 3-4 for the past few days.

I have stuff to look forward to for the next few weekends too. Life is good.

How are you doing?

26. It's newton's law.
No matter is ever created or destroyed, just moved from one waist to another. :P

I'm actually doing a pretty good job maintaining my weight. If I could walk a bit more and get a bit more excersize I'd still be skinny.

You're my role model now. I'm going to lose 2 pounds in the next week!

28. Um, my dear Thomcat.....
I wouldn't try to necessarily get those off in a week.....

I have no idea how long it took me.....

More like a month, most likely......

I don't weigh myself too often.....

I just eat what I always eat, and do my workouts.....

And the weight slides off sloooowly........

Good luck!

:hug:

10. They're not lost, CaliforniaPeggy.
I've got them right here, around my middle! Want 'em back?

No, seriously, good for you. Is it stress or diet? Or heat? Or just good fortune?

18. My dear kiraboo....
Oh, sweetie....no thanks! You keep 'em! Or better yet, dump 'em!

I've been exercising and watching what I eat.....

And that accounts for most of the loss....

I've had a little stress too.....and that also makes a difference in my appetite.....

I'll take whatever comes along to lose the fat!

24. Maybe I could somehow get them to migrate upward, toward the
chest region :)

I just stopped taking an antidepressant which they put me on to get me to eat/sleep. It's done its job far too well! and I'd rather cry my thin self to sleep than pass out every night in overcushioned emotional peace.

19. Ah, my dear NWC!
It IS such a great feeling!

I knew this morning when I got up that I felt different......

And I was!

This is the time I always weigh myself.....the time of day when you're at your lightest....

Thanks! :loveya: :hug:
