Hello, Dear FS Friends! I had a weigh-in with Mike the MA today. I'm at 255 lbs, which is the lowest I've weighed since starting FS, & since...many years! I'm so happy! My oldest DD was given some very nice clothes by a friend & after she went through them she passed them on to me. I found several items that I like & that fit me in my usual size. There were more that I liked in the next smaller size, so on a whim I tried one thing on. It fits, YAY! So, now I have several more items that are in my "new size". I've worn this size before, but not for well over 5 years, & it feels soooo good. I really needed this bit of encouragement, since in the 6 weeks since my last visit with Mike I've only lost 1 lb. That was partly because of the intestinal problem I've been having, which is still not quite fully resolved. I told Mike & have also purposed in my heart & mind that I will have lost 8-10 lbs by my next 6 weeks visit to him. I had a fasting blood draw before my appt with Mike, & we had other errands to run while in the city, so we had breakfast at the Black Bear restaurant. Their special was steak & eggs for $8.99, & I couldn't resist. I splurged, but to help make up for it I didn't eat lunch. Bad girl I know, but this is a rare thing, so not a huge deal. For dinner, Hubs made scrambled eggs & oven fries, so I think I'll be ok weight-wise if I just behave myself now that I've had my big splurge for the month. I also exercycled for about 15 to 20 min's, don't know exactly cuz the cycle's batteries went dead. I had taken a nap, & woke with my left foot cramping. I thought exercycling would help it, but no, instead my right foot also started cramping. Aaargh! Good news is, youngest DD gave me her old mp3 player, & she put a custom "Mom's exercycle-oriented" playlist of good music on it, & it is great. Will be even better with new batteries & no muscle cramps, LOL! Have an awesome week everyone! (((SKINNY HUGS))), GLAMMER
