Happy Birthday!!!!!

Good news on the lack of gain! High Five from California. and a big OUCH on the

well. I take my city water for granted, until I hear about situations like

yours. I am so sorry to hear that. I cannot imagine no water or the mess you

have had to deal with. Hats off to you. I also understand the $$$$$ portion. We

made considerably less last year because I cut back my daycare and Ed worked

less OT.

Hang in there and have a great holiday

Oh, come on! If you made it through a week with no water without nibbling on

forbidden goodies you can continue. :)

You can't ask for a better gift. Besides, good health lasts longer than

flowers.

Congrats on the lost whatever the amount. Don't worry about the slip they

are bound to happen, we have been using food inappropriately for years, so

to think that we can change that just by changing our mind is not

realistic. PLUS hormones rule the world so it's understandable that at

some point they can rule us. Hang on. We'll get there.

I actually went up 2.5 pounds! Yuck! I'm not sure why either, because I

didn't binge. There are only two things I can see as being the culprit;

one, I ate a roll at a dinner buffet and the yeast was just a bad thing for

me and the second would be that I dance about 3 hours and made some muscle

really quickly. Neither one sounds good and so either way, it time to crack

down again.

We are going to be hosting a Japanese exchange student starting

Wednesday and I may have a 3 week job teaching ESL to her and her

classmates, so that should keep me busy.

, you are in my prayers!

Blessings and prayers,

Ann....you are doing awesome!!!! I think it says a lot that you didn't

run to the fridge when stressed with hubby. That is a HUGE victory (at

least for me since I've done that almost every night of my life for the past

10 yrs). Take your victories in every shape and form....the scale is just

one of many ways to show success. Inches lost another, not running to

fridge another, making it 10 more minutes into the workout another. You

should be very proud of yourself! I know it seems overwhelming (boy do I

know) and that's what's kept me from falling off the wagon this past year,

it seems like there is soooo much weight to lose and it's hard to focus on

the smaller numbers/victories when you get them because you see the mountain

in front of you, focus on the now.....on just today....set your small goals

for the day and *when* not if, you get through them, go to bed proud of

yourself and know you can do it again tomorrow! Congrats on the loss and

show of willpower! You can do it!

A lb is a lb; especially if you never see it again! Me, I'm up 2 lbs, and I

kicked myself around and it's over; I'm hanging in there.

Don't look at the scale! Our bodies usually do that early in a weight loss

plan, trying to catch up to the new changes we're putting it through,

epecially if you just started all that walking. You're most likely building

muscle to replace fat, and muscle weighs more than fat.

Take your measurements, instead, and go by that, and how you *feel*, not

what the scale says.

Not enough to make it worthwhile. Better hold on to him a bit longer. :)

See, is right - we can eat almost *any* foods we love as long as we

exercise them off!

Congrats on having a good time and losing weight on top of it.

I'm not a sweets eater but I *do* love cheesecake! Unfortunately, we're

about to get a cheesecake store right here in our city. Luckily parking is

atrocious, especially where this place is opening, so I won't be tempted to

go there except for the rare treat for hubby.

BUT, if they sell a low sugar version, I'm sunk! LOL

> Seaworld was pretty empty on Sun.

As kids, we used to go to Coney Island Aquarium every Easter morning. My dad

would take the 3 of us so my mom could get dinner for the gang started (we

fed the entire family tree - about 20 people). We would practically have the

place to ourselves until around 1pm, but that was about the time we had to

head home, anyway.

I tried to maintaint hat tradition with my own kid, but 5 minutes after we

got there he begged to go home. We did it for 3 years with the same results,

so we just gave up after that.

> stuffed my fat ass into the seat and had a fabulous time.

There's a whole book out, I think, about what rides are size friendly in

Disney's attractions. Some day I hope to finally get to go there, even if

all I do is roam around Toon Town like a kid and keep an eye out for Mickey

so I can get my picture taken with him - a lifelong dream.

OK, so I actually *knew* some castmembers who wore the outfit and one guy in

our apartment complex actually offered to bring his suit home some day and

get that picture taken, but it's not the same. I told him I *have* to be in

the park itself. Too bad he never offered to sneak me in for free. :(

My dh really wants to take the kids to Disneyworld. My little one is 2.5 so

we'll wait a couple more years. I would ****really**** like to not have to

worry about getting the book on rides for fat people! :) I want to walk

into Disneyworld at 150 and be a normal sized person. Ahhhhh..... Nice

that they have a book like that though. I can't wait to be a normal sized

person!

So when are you going to Disney. If it's a lifelong dream then you have to

go. Is that your goal weight reward? :)

Really! Traveling with kids is hard work. Now if I were traveling by

myself........ :)

Ann,

I know exactly how you feel! Two years ago I took my son to a huge amusement

park and I could not fit on the rides. Except for a few that had large

bench seats, and these were not the fun rides, I had to watch my Hubby have

all the fun. Well, this last August I took my son back to the amusement park

all by myself and I fit in every ride. I think I had a better time than my

son! It was such a blast to be a " normal " person and never worry about being

embarrassed. I would find myself grinning from pure joy that day and I am

keeping that feeling tucked in my heart so I never forget how miserable I was

before I lost weight. Your goal of going to Disney as a " normal " person is

possible...you can do it!

It's a matter of finances. We *lived* only 10 minutes away from it, hubby

worked in Disney Celebration's shopping area, we were surrounded by tourists

and Disney Castmembers everywhere we went, yet we couldn't afford the $50

each to get in, not when the average job there paid minimum wage - $5.15/hr.

That's the reason we came back to Jersey, to get decent paying jobs.

My dad and stepmom still live down in Kissmmee, so one of these days, when

the kid's college bills are paid off and we finally have a house of our own

again, AND have a few dollars in the bank, we'll get down there again. It's

going to be a long, long time though. The closest I'm gonna get to Disney

now is the Disney store in our local mall. :(
