    Down to 168.4 this morning which is 3.6 pounds less than last week - yay!

    Ruth, good luck resisting treats.  Ain't gonna happen but you'll work it off.  Wink

    I skipped supper and just had the treats! Now if I can get to bed without walking into the kitchen, I think the day will be a draw.

    Down 4 in the last TWO weeks. Happy, happy!



    No weigh in last week. Feels good to gain some momentum, finally in the right direction!!!



    Still dealing with jawbone infection from abscessed tooth that had root canal. Enough already! Fourth round of antibiotics, now on Augmentin. Feeling crummy is seriously affecting my exercise routine. Hope it clears up this time around!!! Another trip to oral clinic at hospital next Thursday will tell.



    Have a very good week all. Spring is just around the corner.

    Charlotte, I feel for you.  An abscessed jaw is miserable.  Good old penicillin seems to have done the trick for me (touch wood).  Well, that and an extraction.  Good luck next Thursday! 

    Happy end of Feb. everyone!

    Yay!!!  157.5 on the scale this morning.  Back to 2012's low.  Now if I can manage not to reward myself with food today!

    Hope you feel better soon, Charlotte. Glad things are moving forward for you, badger. I'm also done with two fillings. I have an appointment with my onc on Monday to discuss the work for the third one and ONJ risk.

    Carole, great to be back to your 2012 low so early in 2013. That must be a good sign!

    Down 2.5 to 160.5 - I really paid attention to calories this week and it paid off.  Now I need to pay attention every week!

    I'm having problems with my foot and the podietrist wants me to take it easy until I'm using my new orthotics full tiime + My eye surgeon has me really restricted in what I'm allowed to do... no bouncing on the rebounder, no bike, no bending or abrupt movements, slow gentle walking only, but not outside in the wind...  And make sure you don't fall, and don't get your stiches wet.  Undecided By the time he releases me, maybe it will be nice enough to walk in the sunshine and fresh fruit and veggie season should be just around the corner.  So for the rest of March, I'm just trying to hold my own and not gain.  So far so good.
