Terri,
That is hilarious!!
I hear 'ya, though. That happens to me, too. I was walking past a store window and I was like, "Wow! That lady looks good in that.....wait. THAT'S ME!" It floored me and continues to to this day! Congratulations for your wow moments and may you have many more!

Topic: RE: Desperately Needing HELP!!
No you are not alone! I also have let those nasty bad carbs find a resting place in my diet. I have made a promise to myself to get back on track. I didn't jump thru all those hoops with Kaiser to have the surgery to go back to my old ways. I also made a promise to myself to post at least once a day.

Topic: Something I have to share ... one of those moments
I had something interesting happen a few days ago. My husband and I were at Best Buy to use his gift card. As we were leaving and I was walking toward the doors, I noticed a lady walking toward me wearing a sweatshirt just like mine. I thought wow she has my sweatshirt just a smaller size. And, she looks so much better in it than I do. Then, BAMM! I realize it's ME! I see my own reflection in the glass doors. This is the first time I've seen the newer, smaller me.

I am in the same boat with you....but I know that I am not getting the exercise I need and I am eating more crackers than real food. I prefer a nonfat latte to a meal. I can't seem to slow down and chew and I probably consume more than I need. I guess the suggestion to review the rules is probably the most valid of all...just wanted you to know that you are not alone.....

I exercise on a regular basis and yes those horrible carbs have found their way back in but ow that the holidays are over I'm ready to shape up and ship them back on their way! I guess I need to start journaling again and making sure I'm getting all my protein in. Thx for the help!
Topic: RE: I finally did it...
Thank you! Don't know how I did it actually... Maybe cuz I tried (sometimes not successfully) not to snack between meals because I knew that I'd be eating higher calorie stuff at my regular meal times. It was hard and I'm surprised I didn't gain.
As I've said in other posts... Bad carbs are EVIL!

Thanks! Now the challenge this year will be to stay on track. But with everyone's support on our little Message Board, I'm pretty sure that we can do it.
