Just to get it started. Red plan, no lites.

7/5, joined up. 253.6 lbs.
7/10, meal plan day. 251.4 lbs.
7/12, first official weigh in. 249.6 lbs. Total loss 4 lbs.
7/19, second official weigh in. 245.8 lbs. Total loss 7.8 lbs.

I had no (official) questions, and she had absolutely nothing to say about my food journal. (Because it's all there, no cheats.)

Now, just gotta do that 39 more times!

Jess,

Hope the party went well -- I'm assuming it is a surprise B-day party.

Seems like you really planned it out real well.

Thanks everyone!

I think everything's set. I went to Costco yesterday and got a ton of lettuce, peppers, cucumbers and tomatoes to make a big ol' salad. I made a big jar of my vinaigrette, and my brother is bringing the salad dressings that I gave to him last year when I started LAWL! Ha! I have all my lists prepped, and all that's left to do today is to shower, pack up the car, and head over to my aunt and uncle's place to get the party actually set up. I'm looking forward to it! Of course, had a dream last night that the party and surprise was hopelessly ruined in many ways, but hey, won't happen for real! Just a dream!

Had a great workout yesterday afternoon. For some reason, I was feeling really strong as I did the arc trainer. I was using more resistance than usual on the highest level of incline, and I burned about 800 cals in 45 min. Whoa. Then I did about 100 cal burn on the bike. Today, i wasnt' feeling as strong, so I only did 30 min on the arc trainer and only burned 500. Then did 25 minutes on the treadmill. I feel good, though. I got new workout pants the other day, only a large. I love that.

Oh, yesterday, I tried on size 10 pants at NY&Co and they fit!!! They buttoned, and though they were a little tight across the back of the thigh, they fit. I coulda bought them, but I figured I'd wait a little longer. Instead, I bought myself a cute little pinstripe suit in a 12. All these years, i never had a suit because I never thought the Lane Bryant suits looked right--and they were so 'spensive. But now I look GOOOOOOOOOOOD, and it didn't cost so much.

YAY!

Oh yeah, and Mr. Midwest and I had a great night. I'm a happy girl today. :)

Anyway, just chillin' before the party prep truly begins. Have a great day everyone!
