August 4, 2002:I am back from vacation and feeling much better! To be honest, I was a bit sick of my diet. I guess I was in the stage where everything just tastes the same, I didn't want to exercise and I wasn't happy with what I was losing. Well, I at least cured all my cravings on vacation. I had scallops (fried), a 2 pound baked stuffed lobster (worth every point!), a half-pound of chocolate peanut butter fudge (oh my!) and Kahlua Sombreros the whole week!!! I was actually a bit scared to step on the scale this morning but when I did, it said only 182.5...that isn't too bad considering the morning I left, last Sunday, I weighed in at 181. At the moment, I am retaining (that time of the month) so tomorrows weigh in should be completely horrible but I don't care! lol I had a good time last week and I am back with a new attitude!



August 9, 2002: It's Friday and I'm feeling fine. I've been wavering on my home scale from between 179 and 180.5 all week. I am still stuck...I'm going to drop my points tomorrow from 22-27 to 20-25 and see if that works. Also, more exercise bike. Once I get to 170, I'll only have 12 more pounds to my goal of 158. So close yet so far!!



August 12, 2002: Life sometimes brings surprises and today I had one! I have lost another 3.0 pounds...FINALLY! I thought the weight loss Gods or whomever decided I should weigh 181-183 for ever!! Not so, I guess. Anyway, I'm very happy to have finally moved the scale...Mark is at 213.5 pounds...which is about 97.5 gone! He looks incredible!! 22 more pounds to my goal...



August 16, 2002: It's Friday and I'm just hanging out in this heat, wishing it would rain some more. My scale this morning said I was 178 even. I've been weighing in all week at 178-178.5 so I'm hoping my 180's stint is over. lol Trying hard not to eat what I shouldn't...I have to work tonight so no snacking. :-)



August 19, 2002: At the rate I'm going with my journaling, this should be titled "Monthly Thoughts" instead of daily!! Geez, you'd think I'd have more time! Anyway, weigh in today, another 2 pounds lost bringing my total to 58.6 pounds lost and my current weight is 178.8. What a day to be officially in the 170's...I've been dancing around it for a month and a half. I think vacation did me a world of good...I feel like a new person...only 20.4 more pounds to my goal weight of 158. I know it will take a while but I feel a renewed sense of spirit! Mark is weighing in at 211 which means one more pound and he is at a 100 pound loss!! Remarkable!! He is suck a sweetie and he is beautiful, inside and out!
