Sunday Weigh In - September 25, 2011

Oh my, looks like I've lost another week - my how time flies when we're having fun!!  

Okay, so how's everyone doing this week?  My week has been "exciting" to say the least; I know some of you have read my journal, so you know that my aunt, whom I've cared for for years, and who recently had to be brought to live at my house, fell this past week and fractured her hip. This was on Tues; on Wed she had replacement surgery, and is now, we hope, on the road to recovery from that incident.

Because of this, I have spent a multitude of hours sitting in the hospital, waiting for the powers that be (doctors, techs, etc) to do what they need to do.  The most exercise I've gotten all week is the walk from the parking lot to the hospital and back; and sometimes not even that, because they have a shuttle that makes the trip to the parking lot, so sometimes, I was able to get on that.  

Add taking the shuttle, eating in restaurants, sitting in the hospital, all together and you guessed it -- I'm up by a pound this week, after I'd been either losing or holding steady for several weeks. I'd rather things hadn't happened like this, but I'm not really upset by it.  It's been a very stressful week and we do what we have to, to make things easier.  

So that's my story -- what about yours?  How is everyone else doing?  I know several of you have had some issues going on, so I hope you're making progress and reaching your goals.  Now, it's your turn to let us know how your week has gone and what/if you have plans for the coming week that might help you reach your goal.  

Here's wishing everyone a great week.

Remember, we win by losing!!

Thinking of you and your Aunt Barb.

Had a good week on my 2nd cycle of FL4I.  Lost just over 4 pounds this week!  I started 6 weeks ago with 2 off for travelling and have lost 12 pounds!  On the weekend I got to put away my size 16 pants and shop in my closet for my 14's!  Awesome!

giggles, I do hope you will hang in there.  I keep hoping your perserverance will pay off.

I was fortunate enough to see a 1 pound loss this week.  I was surprised, because my rings are tight, but I will take it :)
