TINA - Congratualtions!!! Gold star!

Possegal,

Please put me at 128.5 for last Friday.

My mom was in town all last week. She's on WW too (down 18 pounds in 10 weeks. Go Mom!), so we ate very few restaurant meals. We carried healthy sandwiches, salads and fruit on all of our day trips. So, we ate better, and spent less, to boot! (There *was* a yummy berry/nectarine cobbler that Jeff made from a Cooking Light recipe, but we won't talk about that... )

However, if I'm ever going to make my 125 goal (instead of bopping about between 127 & 130), I need to really buckle down and eat in reducing mode again, instead of in maintenance mode. But, I confess that after all those months of reducing (and the associated "deprivation"), I really *like* maintenance mode.

But if it's ever going to come off, it's going to have to be via calorie control. I get plenty of exercise already! (107 miles yesterday with 7000+ feet of climbing ).

Thats a lot of climbing! I was just looking at about half that for the sat ride but a 1/3 of the climbing!

Yes, it's alot of climbing, but I *like* to climb.

Heading out on vacation next week. 7 days, 450 miles, 35000 feet of climbing. WooHoo!

Coughing and snotting FTW. Almost no exercise in the last two weeks, yet down to 65.3kg.

Slowing eaking my way down.

134 today. Happy the number is lower, but I won't be convinced of real weight loss until I'm down a few more.

Forgot to weigh in today.
Yesterday's weight had me up a bit.
So I'll try to remember to weigh and post this weekend.
As usual the scale is not moving much at all!
