cindylynnwho's Journal, 21 May 08

what a graph cindy.... wow! Enjoy your trip and be not discouraged... that scales is WELL tamed, it will bahave... later.. 

You can do it!! Keep on kickin' butt! Even if you only get a 20 minute slot in for exercise, it's gonna be better than none. Have a wonderful trip!! =D 

I just read yesterday's journal. Sorry I am behind a bit. Holy cow! What a nightmare. I know what you mean about "that doesn't happen to me" thing. I felt the same way when in college I went to visit a friend at a different college, got invited to her roommate's cousin's party and we weren't there 2 minutes when there was a drive-by shooting and I'm shoving my friend behind a wood shed. We were quite shook up. Not that it compares to getting maced, but still, that kind of thing doesn't happen to me. Hasn't happened since. LOL. Great job on the pants. I hope you were smarter than me and did NOT remove the tags so you could return them. WOOHOOO! You're losing lots of inches! :) You may not have lost much in the last week, but you are securely under 180 which is great!!!! YAY!  

I did the community basket for a while, but I've noticed that I lost a lot of vegetables. I live in the country, so it's best to stop by the road and buy what you need. It's still good for business for them and better for the environement, less waist. I found that the groceries have more local things now, althought I live in Québec, and don't have fresh stuff all year round. Congratulation! You're doing so great. 

thanks, dave! glad you're my buddy now! 

thanks, BT! I am hoping to get lots of walking in... my friend does not have a car so she walks a lot to get around. also she knows all about my weight loss goals and fatsecret so would be supportive if I wanted to exercise more, I think.  

haha, sara, no, I removed the tags! I can still wear them, though, I just need a belt. wow, that is scary about a drive-by shooting! i think it does compare... i mean, not as painful if you don't get hit, but much more life-threatening. if I didn't know whether or not I'd be hit, I'd definitely choose mace over bullets ;) thanks for your support. it IS kinda awesome to be securely in the 170s! 

ah, mayisa, you are more experience with the community basket thing, I should have asked you first ;) I'm glad I tried it, but next time I think I will do as you do and stop at the farmer's market when I need to. good point about the packaging being less-- I hate all the plastic they wrap everything in at the grocery store. thanks for you ongoing support!
