BRILLIANT!!  Whew … when I read, ” … last night was a nightmare..” I assumed you had gained 3 pounds.  But NO!  You did great!

Keep it going!  

Good.  Good luck!!!  

Good luck, SK!  Probably the best thing is to tell them you just aren’t feeling well, so you’ll have a couple of bites, but that’s it.  They really won’t care or remember how much you eat in a few days.  In general, we assume our relatives are more concerned with how much we eat than they actually are.

Sounds fine.  Bottom line: if that schedule works for you, GREAT!  

YAY!  What time to you usually go to bed?  What time do you have dinner?

Welcome back, Rachel!  I’m so glad to see you again.  You are right!: Just imagine all the time you will add back to your life when you finally cross that finish line.  It is SO worth it … as hard as it might be at times.  So good for you; you’ve stumbled, but you aren’t quitting.  And you are here to finish this journey.  Let’s do this!…[Read more]

You are brilliant, Meri!!!  I am SO EXCITED!!!  

So, Meri … how are things going TODAY?
