How about Tuesday?

That's the kind of math that I know with my HEAD, but my heart says, "but it's sixty percent off!" It's kind of like I know with my head that if I exercise and eat healthy foods that I'll lose this stinking weight. But my heart says, EAT THE ICE CREAM. LOVE THE ICE CREAM. DEMOLISH THE ICE CREAM.

Thanks for keeping on encouraging me even though you're not currently in the game. I'd understand if you wanted to stop, but I really appreciate you. Either way, you know I love ya! When are we gonna get our munchies together to play?!

Forgot one more thing. Could you e-mail me a link to your blog? Gavs killed our computer, so I've lost EVERYTHING! Your phone number, too! I'll write them in my address book this time!

Hiya, Ters! First of all, congrats on taking off another couple pounds! Also, I meant to tell you this earlier, but didn't want to post here if you were never checking. Your last post finally kicked in for me. I've lost almost forty pounds now, and I'm starting to feel just as fat as I ever was. I think it's just that when I was at my heaviest, I didn't give a fig for how I looked or what size clothes I was wearing. Now that I do care, it seems really tough to look past my giant, bulging tummy and back. And the majority of the clothes that I was wearing at my heaviest STILL FIT! Talk about demotivating!

Oh! And I potty trained finally yesterday! Caleb turns three on Saturday, so I just made the mark. He made it through nap and nightime without wetting, but I've still had a couple accidents. I'll consider it done when he goes a week without an accident. I'm shooting for none today!

Hullo, lovey! Thanks for your motivation! I'm trying to stay accountable for the faith my friends are putting in me!

I wasn't going to write you anymore on here so I didn't keep dragging you back when you were taking a break and/or done with the site. But since you wrote to me...

Those pounds SUCK! I'm working so stinking hard. But I know that the laws of...something mean that the weight has to come off sometime. According to mycaloriecounter.com, I need to eat like 2900 calories a day just to maintain my weight. I'm eating 1100 less than that AND exercising my little booty off, so I should see those pounds coming off. Alas, it hasn't happened yet.

Loves you! Thanks for being supportive, Terra. We still need to get together sometime, right? It's been - oh my goodness - more than six months. That's not kosher.

Congrats to your honey, my friend! Happy new job! I was praying for him! And if you have to move to Denver, I guess I'll just have to do a dance for joy! I need you in my world. I miss you in my world. Grr. Now I guess I'll just start praying for your house to sell imMEDiately!

Hey, Terra! I saw Carmen and Hilarie yesterday! Carmen asked about you! It was weird to hear your old last name again! It was so good to talk to you this week. We need to do that a little more often. I'm going to get the RC Sproul (?) book in the next couple of months, and I'll need your help for comprehension.

Thanks for the compliment. My face isn't nearly so thin and lovely as that picture, but I adore when the camera lies in my favor. So often it does the opposite.

MAN, if I'm having a tough time maintaining motivation for this effort, I can only imagine how tough it is for you who have been trying longer. I'm really hitting that "bored" phase where I seriously derail. Actually, I hit it over a month ago, and it's only this site that has kept me moving. And MOVE I SHALL! I wanted to lose another four pounds before Friday. The scale was less than generous this morning, so I still have hope. (I ate really badly a couple of days this week, but it was picking up on the fact that I drank NO water yesterday. Ugh.) Cross your fingers for me. I'd like to enter my thirty-second year on this planet at least THREE pounds lighter!

Hey, friend. I lost my motivation. We're trying to get our house ready to put on the market, so I'm just now starting to understand the pressures you've been under for a while. I'm REALLY trusting God that this is the right time, but even if it's not, we're good with it. I also did my first job as a freelance writer! So that was also stress.

It makes sense with all of that craziness that something had to fall off the edge of my caring, and my weight loss efforts were the thing to go. However, I'm feeling MUCH more optimistic about life today, and even got in a workout! (The first since last Thursday, ugh.)

I hope you're doing well, my friend. I sure miss you. Let me know what's going on with YOU!

Thanks, Terra! I worked really hard this week - high intensity aerobics interspersed with "boot camp," which was aerobics with WEIGHTS! It was ridiculous, but I can't argue with the results!

Yesterday was my first day of no bf. I'm NOT sad. As a matter of fact, I feel a LOT more free. I wanted to make it to 11 months at least, but then decided that was my pride talking, and my boobs were paying the price. Blech!
