Gulf Coast

We're having a great time! We are moving slowly along the Gulf Coast in the panhandle area of Florida right now. We had a lunch of mullet (a fish that they have down here and it's GOOD!) and beans yesterday, and just snacked (Jack soup and popcorn and Janee cereal) last evening.

My somber news is that I am not going to make my weight loss goal, unless I change the date. 130 is still my goal, but this last 8 lbs has proven to be pretty sticky. My actual goal is to keep 130 for the rest of my life, so I suppose the date doesn't matter that much. How about if I make it by Christmas?

I'm starting to notice little things that signify that I'm lighter, besides just the number on the scale. I find that my rings fit more loosely and so do my jeans. I don't feel as overall stodgy as I did a few weeks ago, either, so .. that's good!

  1. I would recommend a good sweat everyday for about 8 weeks for 30 minutes a day. Then you can back off to 3 times a week. Believe me it works. Like ride the stationary bike for 30 minutes hard or something that gets your heart rate up. Weight watchers says you have to sweat in the first three minutes. Anyhow once the eight weeks is up ---the weight stays off----Also eat in moderation. I leave some food on my plate every meal. No snacking. I know you didn't ask for the advice--just my own experiance.

  2. How you feel has much more to do with the real issue, and the real goal than the actual weight. weight in and of itself is very varible.
