I have my mother's jowl's. I keep trying to pull them up and tuck them behind my ears with tape but it isn't working. I even sound like her. She is gone now and I should not be speaking this way but damn - I didn't want to look like an 85 year old. What is with that? I wish I was trapped in 160 land with you.

Yeah I am at 131 and I still need caffeine so lets be honest here... I think your pic really isn't all that bad but trust me I get it! The good thing about the cheats you had is that you were able to do it and still lose weight. It may not be as much as you wanted but slow and steady wins the race! That way you don't feel deprived and you are living realisticly. These things are going to happen and it's the point that you didn't let it get out of control that it GREAT!! My carbs are waaaay up today but tomorrow I will plan and do better. I think people that go too far are the ones that are on a diet, NOT a lifestyle change and have a better chance of gaining it all back. That WILL NOT be us so don't worry if you could've done "better", you are losing and that means you are doing just fine :-).

Hey, check out your weight loss chart...you have done an awesome job and I know being stuck is a drag, but you will get past the 160's because you are determined to do so!! And you were able to "cheat" a little and still lose weight. If we feel deprived all the time, then we won't want to keep with it and will fail. You are working on a healthier you. :)

Triaby.. I give you permission to super glue my mouth shut if I don't get out of the way soon! lol
Neptunebch.. What is with that? I have my moms body down to the last bit of flab and she says she's 175. I always thought she lied and must weigh more than that but the proof is in the picture. I won't see her again until the holidays so now my goal is to look alot more fit before then.

Thynes - I saw your 160 pic and the caption and it couldn't be more true! I thought I looked alot better till I saw the proof. Now I'm motivated to do more to reach my goal and try to fit exercising back in somewhere. Sleep walking is a thing.. I wonder if you can teach your body to sleepwalk on a treadmill. Hopefully before too long I'll be in the 130's.

I'm with you on the couldn't I have done better. I've been doing horrible this past week and I feel like it's thrown off all of the good for the month. My kids have figured out there's no way I'm keeping up, so they run circles around me instead. Having been down about weight and other issues for so long, I think it's hard to look at a picture of myself and not see something I don't like. I'm trying to change that thinking, I know I weigh less than last year and I feel healthier, so I must look better. You have such a great attitude that I'm sure you'll get to that goal.

I really appreciate your journal today - especially the part about trying just a little bit harder - doing just a little bit better. It might just add up to ridding ourselves of that extra pound at the end of the week. Will have to keep that in mind - especially with the holidays right around the corner. Thanks!
