Weighed myself this morning.. I'm down another pound.. which brings the grand total to..... " 96 "  Still having some sour stomach and not really feeling like eating... I had to start taking an iron tablet about 2 weeks ago.. I can tell when I need to increase my iron.. I get really tired.. and my fingers under my rings turns black.. ANYWAY ... 4 more pound until ONDERland.. and the Century club... keep your fingers crossed it happens this weekend!!!

Well I didn't weigh myself this morning... so I'm still holding at " 95 "I wasn't feeling all that great when I got up.. my stomach is "grumbling" and feels "sour" .. that's the best way I know how to describe it... .. Food holds no interest for me today.. 

Spend most of this weekend shopping! I redid my entire bathroom... I'm talking.. new towels, rugs, shower asscessories, baskets, pictures, nicnacks... all that kinda stuff... That'll teach John to leave town for the entire weekend to go to the races!!! 

I did buy some new clothes as well... For the most part, my pants are a 14 .. I did wear some size 12 jeans this weekend... but to me.. I looked like I had a slight muffin top.. (( pet peeve of mine )) I bought some work pants and work sweaters and shirts.. socks and undies.. stuff like that... I like that I can wear a sweater to work.. and not sweat to death in it.. Before, I would have to have a fan blowing on me.. and if I even attempted to walk to the copier.. I would break out in a sweat... it's nice to not have the extra 95 pounds to haul around...

I'm down another pound .. which brings my grand total lost to " 95 " YEAH!!
Now.. I'm 5 pounds from ONDERland... and 5 from The Century Club... My one year anniversary is Nov 27th... and my one year check up is Nov 28th ..
I so desperately want to weigh in at Dr. R's office on my one year check up down 100 pounds...  OR MORE!!  Keep your fingers crossed.. 

That's almost 6 weeks away.. I CAN DO THIS!! I can !!!!

I'm still at a holding pattern at " 94 "  But the inches are coming off... I spent the weekend at my BFF's house in Charlotte... We hit the malls Saturday afternoon and shopped for 9 hours... then got up the next morning and spent 4 hours in Old Navy... I'm feeling pretty good about how far I've come... I'm wearing a pair of Old Navy Cordoury pants I bought.. they are a size 14 !!!
They are a "flirt rise" .. which sits at my lower hips.. no fat roll!! I love it!

It's a huge deal for me.. because I never thought I would ever get back down to where I was after my divorce.. I still "trip" a few times.. but everyone makes mistakes.. I'm not going to beat myself up over them.. my 1 year anniversary is next month.. my 1 year appointment is the 28th of November... I really would like to be at or above 100... It would make all this struggle worth it.. So that's what I'm pushing for.. to drop 6 pounds in the next 6 weeks..  I CAN DO THIS!!!!!!

Well I managed to drop ANOTHER pound this morning.. I'm down " 94 " Even after eating those freakkin donuts.. I lost weight.. maybe I just needed some carbs in my system to jump start it!! Who knows... I'll take the pound lost!

How I managed to drop a pound this week I don't know I'm down " 93 "... My son Nathan was here for the weekend... came up from GA when he's in college.. ANYWAY.. we took him out to dinner... I had 1/2 a margarita and chips and cheese dip... THEN for breakfast yesterday.. my husband runs up to Duncan Donuts and get 2 huge boxes of donuts I ate 1/2 a poppy seed bagel... and 2 donuts.. then proceeded to lay on the couch in PAIN for an hour... Did I mention the 2 slices of pizza I ate for dinner Saturday night?? 

Everything else is going great.. I may not be dropping the pounds.. but I sure can tell a difference in clothes... Today I'm wearing a shirt that last year.. I couldn't even get into...and the year before that.. I had to use safety pins to keep the damn buttons from popping of.. it was that freakkin tight!! Now it's so loose, it's kinda hanging off me...

Well it's been over a month since I've last posted.. I'm down " 92 " Seem's like the weight loss has come to a complete stop... I can not believe how much better I feel... it's killing me tho.. I'm 8 pounds from 100 pounds gone and the century club!! Frustrating.. VERY frustrating...

Besides that.. everything is good.. work is crazy... I can't even go into all the crap that has happened in the last month. Well that's all I've got... until next time....

This weekend was crazy... from getting the kids ready for back to school.. to getting things done inside the house that needed cleaning - fixing etc. The scale moved again.. THANK YOU LORD!! I'm down " 91.5 " as of this morning!!! More to come!!

I'm still "holding" at 88.. haven't gained.. which is good.. but haven't lost either.. which is frustrating as hell....

Work is crazy... trying to get a new company set up.. and running .. and have a payroll cut in 3 weeks is not an easy task... I don't have time to log on and check the boards or anything.. and when I did get time yesterday.. I was going to respond to someone's post.. and WHAM.. my phone starts ringing and someone walked into my office.. GO FIGURE!

John and I worked in our yard doing landscaping all weekend... It was back breaking work I tell you that much.. but I did drop 2 more.. so I'm down " 88 " pounds!! That's nothing to sneeze at!!
