Feeling Like Beached Seal?? Wednesday Weigh In


Yes, there have been days like this. Hormones, stress, too much fun... who knows what causes the feelings? This week, another pound lost. I was hoping that it would be more since I worked for hours out in our 2 acres of woods, pulling English ivy off of trees. It has already killed the natural ground cover and many trees. Eileen & I also had our first show of the spring, so 8 hours were spent working at the show, hauling furniture up and down stairs. Tons of exercise and not much time to eat, or even think about eating. I'm just glad to be off of the plateau and starting down hill again. The exercise feels great and even though I have a lot of weight left to lose, I'm not thinking of myself as a beached whale.... or seal. How do those people on Biggest Loser lose 9 pounds a week? Can't imagine it!!
Have a great week!

Hi Eileen!

You're too darn pretty to be a beached whale! LOL I feel your pain! lol I am forever on a diet or trying to lose weight. It sure does get harder as we age. I need to exercise,but haven't done so yet. One thing that sure does help lose is drinking a lot of water. Anyway your blog is lovely as ever and I just wanted to stop by and say hello.

I'm on the South Beach Diet and I've wondered, too, how someone can lose 9lbs in a week.

But, just like everything in life, good things come to those who are patient and weight (oops...I mean WAIT!) :) YOU CAN DO THIS and so can I!

Know I share your heart...
