How do I drop 5 lb in a week ? Ahhhh.

Originally Posted By Tandelothien You'll get there smedley, I'm sure of it!

I'm going to measure myself later (when it warms up a bit) just to see if it's made a difference to my size in a week. I am amazed at how easy it is to stick with this diet and how good I feel. Well I'll check in later with the news about my measurements. Hope everyone is having a good week

We'll be back on track tomorrow. I won't weigh until next Friday Weigh to go Tand Congrats!! Hi smeds and iamsally

Originally Posted By Labuda Ok, so... the scale is being somewhat steadier than I'd like right now, BUT when we had tax free weekend here last week, I bought some new stuff in the size that's one smaller than what I was last wearing. Lo and behold, I'm thinking I need to go back AGAIN and get the NEXT size smaller pants! OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG! I cannot tell you how excited I am to be making this decision. Sure, it's money wasted that I spent last week, but MY GOD! I AM BUYING SMALLER CLOTHES! I even finally went down a shirt size! HALLELUJAH!

Originally Posted By Labuda smeds - all tags have been removed; that's my issue. So, my bad for not buying smaller in the first place, but that's ok. Lesson learned.

Originally Posted By amazedncal2 Thank you Tand! LOL! I'm impressed with your DD iamsally I've for sure tried to keep up with the Wiggles dance moves and I honestly can't sometimes. Maybe I should try the Cockroaches Kind of back OT, it's quite chilly here today so we got a good walk in. I'll keep the Wiggles DVD's in mind though for a rainy day. DH will think I've finally lost it
