Hi all!
I kind of fell off the weigh-in's. In fact I have no idea of my weight. I suspect I am about 123--that is where I tend to stay. Add or subtract a pound or so--depending on the day!

I just had 2 weeks of vacation--enjoying micro brews, hiking and biking. (Ok, had the micro brews AFTER the hiking and biking).

I am just trying a new approach--and it does not involve the frequent dates with the scale--those always discourage me.

My new approach is to stick w/ the marathon training plan. Yes, I know, training for endurance is not the best way to lose weight. But IF I do all the runs as prescribed and I don't "over eat"...it could/should work.
And my once a week total body conditioning and/or pilates and maybe a spin on the bike.

And I am not "dieting". I am cleaning up my eating. I can do it. I have done it.
Eating out is only once a week. (not like 2 and 3 times or more!)
But not great sacrafices that just lead me to then over-indulge. Being smart. I do know what I should and should not eat!

And insteaad of the scale, I am going by how I feel and how my clothes feel. (In fact today my pants are comfortable!--and they are not even my "fat pants").

Go kudos to all that has lost weight and good luck to all. I think I'll sit the nex challenge out. Maybe I'll be surprised (one way or another) when I step on the scale at the end of the month!
