I think it was my daughter that brought me to my senses, when she said I was being too rigid. I followed the rules to the letter for about a year - wearing a size four by then, when my daughter told me that I was driving her nuts... I needed to relax a little. Since then, I have pretty much maintained my size, if not my weight!

I think it would have to be my nut. Last year, around the holidays, I was sort of "pushing the envelope" by making some bad food choices. I wasn't eating a lot, but I was finding ways to justify what I was eating. My nut simply reminded me about the honeymoon period and how I should take advantage of it while I was in it. I took it to heart, and my weight loss picked up and never looked back.

My NUT said "Be kind to yourself." Don't obsess about a scale weight or a BMI. Judge success on how you feel and what you can do now you couldn't do before.

Because of skin issues I was told at my surgeons office last week to stop obsessing about the BMI>>> I was asked what my goal was and I said to get the BMI in a normal range and was told to just be glad I am feeling well and not obsess about numbers. That if I get at the top of the normal range that would be great!

I hit 152.6 yesterday. Not sure if I can actually make my Halloween goal of 145 but I'll love being under 150. I haven't been under 150 since the 8th grade.

Well, hanging in this week at 227.6. Didn't get to join the gym as planned, waiting for a check to come in from my Dad's estate. Hopefully that will be in this week.
