Thanks Mary B., it was nice because I really didn't expect anything with my monthly visitor still in town . I have been really impressed with your losses as well. I wish everyone much success! Tam

A little movement is better then no movement.

Mary,you're doing so wonderfully! Proud of you. I'm sureyou're happy not to have the high dose of meds.

My scale has been terrible during TOM. It's ending but I'm still a couple lbs above where I was before TOM. Probably because of a couple cookies I had. Gonna be real good today though. *smile*

YIKES! Down *17* pounds just since the beginning of the month and you call that "slowing down". And here I am still sitting at 293, the weight I reached this year at the end of February.

Kris and Merpig thanks so much for the kind words. I don't know what it is but I hope it keeps going. I personally feel the Prednisone I am taking has affected my metabolism. I am always jittery and anxious. I am always burning up, even drinking 120+ ounces of water daily. My office is like an ice box, at 67 degrees, and sometimes I want it colder!!! Whatever it is, I hope it gets me to my goal soon.

Wrong direction today. Not worried though. TOM is finally gone, I think weight will settle down now.

Think I may change things up a bit, I know I am still losing. But always on the lookout for better ways. Gonna add some fiber pills to my diet. The guy in the success forum took 3 a day. and dropped 150lbs in 6 months. Cant hurt to try..

So can you give us a sample of what your daily intake of food and possibly any other nutrition you are consuming to lose the wonderful lbs you are?

I do hope the numbers keep falling for you as they are. Last month I did 19lbs, this month it has slowed down a bit, down 10 for the month so far.
