The Photo

This is NOT what I look like now. 

I was looking through a bunch of photos, and found this one taken of me three years ago (7/28/05) at my grandmother's 99th birthday.  I had recently lost a lot of weight doing Atkins.  Well in those three years, I've put on at least 34 pounds.  The reason for my name 50dreamer is because, I dream of being this skinny again.  My grandma will be 102 soon and I would love to be on the road to being thin again by her birthday when the family gets together.  I know I won't be this thin by the 28th, but to at least be going in the right direction -- free of this junk food addiction, feeling good about myself and down several pounds.

Making it

through any holiday weekend with any loss is always a celebration!

WOW! You sure ARE think in that photo!

Hi, We're very close in weight, but I'm sure you are slimmer.  I am only 5'4.5"; so you've got some height on me, which is GREAT!  Re:  Your inquiry re:  "Weekend Management", I posted a reply on what works for me on our support group page.  Please let me know if you'd like me to send you my list of 0 point foods?  (Note: 5 servings of any combination of 0 point foods = 1 pt., but you don't have to count them until then.)

Congrats on your loss this week and have a great week ahead!  Cheers!

Oops! I meant, WOW! You sure are THIN in that photo!

Duh...I really need to proofread better!  Have a good one! 

Weekends

Hi - I agree with kimquilts55!  Holidays are especially tough with all the activities going on, and I find weekends are harder, just because the schedule is different.  Plus just the thought of "weekend" makes me want to feel like I can splurge, you know?  Have a great week!
