I was going to post but then I clicked somewhere else and lost it!!!  So now, the short version:

• Post-gain week is going very well
• sticking to plan
• exercised all but today - there's still time though!

• I have a very supportive boyfriend who is my personal cheerleader - a term he learned (and uses often) from a Jenny Craig email I sent him and my mom.  When we went for a walk yesterday, at Colt's suggestion, he said "let's take the hill!"  If that's not support, I don't know what is!
  
• My mom told my grandma about the weight I lost.  My grandma sent me a card!  She painted it herself.  My grandma is the type to say "Holly you're really packing it on"  actually, not the type, she HAS said it!  So this is VERY encouraging!
• I'm beat.  It's TOM and I'm on new BC and am still adjusting.  Having serious fatigue and muscle soreness... but I'm trying not to let it get me down!  I gotta exercise!
• Went grocery shopping today and bought some non JC items to try and save some $$$
• Kashi and yogurt for bfast
• WW Mint Sundaes, 100 cal oreo bars, 120 cal mango popsicles for snacks
• Three picnics this weekend!  Friday is at my dad's.  I told him I'm on JC and if he wants to cook for me, grill up some veggies.  Sunday's is same deal at my mom's.  Saturday is a housewarming at a friend's... they don't know I'm on JC...  I also weigh in Sunday morning so i DO NOT want to sabotage it!  I'll just be extra mingle-y and hopefully no one will notice that I'm not eating!  or drinking!  Sunday I am having a beer... the only kind I like: Sam Adam's Cherry Wheat.  It's gonna be great!

I have one of those...

like your grandmother.  Your right, take it as encouraging.  I always take it as, 'man she is so mean'. 

I sooo understand!

My grandparents use to be  "supportive" when they asked me:  Isn't it about time someone went on a diet??   If I had had the guts back then that I have now, I would have turned around and said, "Who are you talking to, Papa?  I know you're not talking to me!"  haha

Anyway, they mean well.. they just don't realize that those kinds of comments tend to backfire.   (I don't know about you, but after something like that, I usually wanted to eat something more just out of spite!  )    So, maybe your grandmother has finally "gotten it" and can give you real support........ mine have never figured it out!     haha

Keep on pushin' through that TOM....all that bloating, etc. will be gone in a few days, thank goodness!   (Now I don't know if I'm talking to you or to myself!  haha)

Have a great weekend and enjoy mingling at those picnics.   Ah, and most importantly, drink slowly and savor EVERY DROP of that beer!
