MARY - Re: Just stuff

[Guest guest]

Hello ,

If I read your message correctly YOU BAKED AND DIDN'T GORGE - my giddy aunt,

you've got the formula I'd kill for.

It sure sounds as if you got plenty done on your 'free' day. As for not using

your time profitably, I think I have the names of a couple of people who would

just love it if you could go and 'waste' a day at their house!!! Am I right

Miki and ???

I know what you mean about the tug-of-conscience between desire and cupboard

space. I would think i had died and gone to heaven if I had free rein in a

kitchenware store without having to worry about storage space.

The 'flying mattress' incident must have been scary - I'm glad you emerged

unscathed. I've heard of flying carpets but flying beds is something quite new

for me!!!

>>>It has taken me six weeks to lose 14.5 pounds. The logical part of my brain

keeps trying to tell the rest of me that is a good job, but it still seems

terribly, terribly slow. Still over 60 pounds to go and I know I will slow down

and hit plateaus along the way. It's a little daunting.<<<<

How long did it take you to gain 75 pounds ? A little longer than a few

months I expect. Be patient and don't try to rush the weight loss. Give you

body and brain time to adjust to the 'new ' without trying to 'get there

yesterday'. 14.5 lbs in 6 weeks is an average of 2.4 lbs per week and, allowing

for larger losses initially, that is about what doctors and nutritionists

recommend.

>>>>Still over 60 pounds to go and I know I will slow

down and hit plateaus along the way. It's a little daunting.

Not daunted enough to keep the cupcakes, however. <<<<<

There's my girl. Your fighting spirit should be bottled and sold to all WLB's.

I'll order a crate load right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers for now,

Marie
