Back from a 5 day stint in Vegasof eating and drinking ridiculously expensive food, but LOTS of walking. didn't actually work out except for first day there.
Weight this am: 176.6.
Terribly dehydrated and that is why it doesn't say 186!
Back to the grind! It's even stopped raining here so excuses are over for the time being!

Ended up right back were I started 139.5, but body fat is 32%, down just a bit.
I've realy been under a lot of stress this last few weeks. Have to admit, I really wasn't watching what I was eating or anything else.

Well, I am going to put things in perspective first...
Last Saturday, I got hit by a car!
I am lucky that I am alive. An elderly person stepped on the gas instead of the brake while parking her handicapped van and it came flying up onto the sidewalk and hit me where I was standing. The only reason that I wasn't killed right there on the spot is that it also slammed into a cement pole that stopped it in its tracks.
Therefore, I ended up with only a glancing blow - some minor injuries and I have spent the week recuperating in bed. One broken bone and some very serious bruising all over my body. I am looking at the whole event positively since I know what the outcome could have been.
This just reinforces that I need to appreciate each day that I have on this earth because I never know when it will be my last! I am so grateful that I am still here that I can't stop crying. I'm tearing up just writing this post.
So, ladies, I send you my love and best wishes and also am hoping that you are living the best life that you can!
My weight today was 142.1. All in all, I am VERY happy that I am here to send out my water bottle.
So, who won?

Lynette! Whoa! I'm shocked and so so glad you're ok. I hope you are feeling much better and the broken bone and bruising heals soon. I'll send some healing vibes your way. And I hope the elderly person can find other modes or transportation after this and stay out of the car.

Wow Lynette, that looks just awful!!! I am SO glad to hear that you are ok and I can only imagine the emotions you must go through. Kinda puts the whole "stressing about weight-loss" thing into perspective doesn't it? Take care of yourself and keep us posted on your recovery. {{{{{Lynette}}}}}
