I haven't had anything to report in months since I stopped losing at 13 months out. However, due to the recent TT that took off 6 lbs. of abdominal fat, I now have new data! Check it out:

So Yawl Can Bask in My Humiliation
Oct 13, 2007
Some of you know that I am a garage sale addict. (Yes, I have some addictions other than food and the internet!) Well, yesterday I went to an estate sale at a huge and very expensive home. (Aw, some rich old lady died -- cool, let's go buy her stuff! LOL!) As, I said, I made the trek up the steep driveway to the house. There was a tennis court and pool in the back, and the garage door was opened and crammed full of items for sale. I was thinking what a bummer it was that this "estate" sale wasn't inside since half the fun is getting to look around the home! So, I picked through everything in the garage. This person must've been a tennis buff (duh, they had a tennis court). They had all kinds of tennis balls, rackets, collectibles, etc. None of this is of any interest to me except for the great Nike tennis shoes I found practically brand new and my size for 2 bucks. I thought it was very cool that the old lady obviously wore the same size shoe as me, and also found a pair of house slippers. The only other things I found were a couple pots and pans and some ribbon. When I went to check out with my stuff, the guy told me that there was more stuff in the house and to go around back to get inside. Kewl! He agreed to hold onto the stuff I'd already selected until I got back.
As I was going through the back patio area to enter the house, I saw a bunch more shoes! Kewl, I thought and started trying on and grabbed up several pairs, and even a pair of sneakers in my hubby's size. With my armload of shoes I entered the house and found a grocery bag to stuff them in. Then I went up to the lady at the checkout table and asked her to hold them for me while I looked around. She set the bag behind the table. I commenced to looking around all the items in the home, and especially the BEAUTIFUL HOME. There was a huge round foyer with a spiral staircase and marble floors so shiny you could see your reflection. Off to one side was a formal dining room, straight ahead was the living room, and on the other side a fancy wet bar and a bath with green marble floors just as shiny. There were many pieces of expensively-priced furniture and paintings. Just then one of the estate sale attendants approached me and told me I was not supposed to be wearing my shoes in the house, and didn't I see the sign on the door to take off my shoes as I entered the house. I told him I did not, but removed my shoes and carried them with me as I proceeded up the spiral staircase to the second level. From upstairs as I was rummaging through bedroom closets, I started hearing a commotion from down below. People were complaining that their shoes they removed as they entered the house had gone missing. I'm busy looking, and it hasn't dawned on me what's going on exactly, so I ignored this commotion. Finally, it occurs to me what's happening, as the blood rushed to my face!.......
