I just saw Rick's contribution.

Somewhere, sometime in the future, I will be passing that off as my own ad lib...

Oh that is great, Rick!

AHAHAHAHAHA!

Rick!

AdagioM, glad to hear your hospital experience turned out ok. Hospitals seem to be a great place for losing weight.

My own recent experience there has done the same. I'll take it any way I can get it! So before it all comes back on I will put my number in here and enjoy it!

Rick...

Weighed in today. Lost another 3 pounds, for a total so far of 13. Unlike the woman in Rick's cartoon, I can feel my pants getting looser.

I'm on day two of eating only salads. Of course, today I added bacon bits, homemade spicy croutons, eggs, three kinds of cheese and topped that all with homemade bluecheese dressing... Refreshing, however, self-defeating.

Hello, my name is Jodi. And I am addicted to white bread. And butter. And sugar. Just so you all know, I am a hopeless hopeless non-loser. All that progress I made before Christmas, all those cute clothes I bought...

I'm off to the gym this morning. I hate this.

HI JODI!

I believe I am probably in a similar boat. I am guessing that my weight is at 100, but I haven't wanted to weigh myself to check it for the last couple of weeks.

One theory we may wish to explore is, since our weight is not changing, perhaps we are already at the perfect weight...

Those 3 pounds I lost at the hospital? I found them.

But I'm losing them again!

Still under my WW goal weight (barely)....

I managed to make it through a whole day yesterday being good (Ok, mostly good = I had two oreos after dinner). I made up a soup like teachum suggested way back on page one or two of this thread. A big pot of non-fat chicken broth, with cut up cabbage, onions, carrots, parsnips, celery, turnips, and cauliflower - all cooked up so I have something to slurp munch on when I just can't stand it any more. And I'm eating grapefruits. Lots of grapefruits. I'm back at the gym, and trying to do something aerobic every day. (off to mow the lawn now)

Jodi 99.5# (yes, I know I didn't really lose 2 pounds since yesterday. But it feels good to post it anyway.

I appear to have become stuck on 112# by our new math. I prefer to think the scales might be stuck. But I'd have to totally discount that moment to suck it in getting into clothes to go to a birthday party tonight. I'm thinking about converting to doggy pounds.

I'm at 105...

I stare at all the maternity models and I keep telling myself that they must be normal models with a fake belly under the clothes. They have no fat rolls, no chubby arms. I tried on some clothes the other day and there were little rolls hanging out everywhere, especially under my arms! I have actually grown quite a bit in the week since the last photo was taken. I'm the anti-Plays!

One more day down, man do I HATE not eating donuts. I think my eyeballs are starting to turn green with all these veggies I'm eating.

I see from your avatar that you *are* eating plant matter!
