maddy ... you are doing great ... yay for you!

osuche ... you also are doing great ... I've been having that exercise motivation issue myself for awhile too ... actually a little longer than a week or so, but I know where you're coming from and I don't always manage to get myself moving nearly enough.

Lil ... man oh man that's a big number .... hope you are able to move forward as soon as you're ready!

wyndhy and aqua ... thank you both for your kind words and positive thoughts!!! They make a difference!

me, I know I haven't been reporting in as much lately ... not been being perfect, but not been TOOO bad either, most days I fall within 100 calories or so of the top of my range, which considering just how much weight I have to lose, is still a very positive outcome ... still losing inches and feeling more energy and ease of movement ... which is really what I started this whole process for, so I'm happy that I'm moving forward in my goals still (just a wee bit slower at the moment then I was doing at the beginning).
