I was sooo glad when my daughter was old enough to drive, especially when all the sports started!!!<br />Looks like you are still getting a lot done. I wonder if your body is still kind of going through withdrawals of a sort??? I have always wondered what that plateau thingy was really all about. I lost 13 lbs. one time and then that was it....for 6 weeks I could not lose even one lb....didn't gain any but certainly didn't lose. I was soooo discouraged. Starting today I am trying the balance way...equal portions...a protein, a good carb and a bad carb. Three meals a day like this with 2 snacks that also include a little protein with it....like say an apple with a few bits of cheddar or cream cheese or a little peanut butter. It's hard having to COOK for every meal but I've always been a from scratch cooker anyway.<br />Maybe with school starting back and the kids getting busy again and more activity going on will give your ole bod a renewed inspiration to kick off those lbs.!!!!!!!!!!!!!Browndirtcottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12259939643695340109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8547359357445201023.post-59077706997586469462011-08-22T08:33:30.389-05:002011-08-22T08:33:30.389-05:00I love those baskets.

Remember your other chemicals, hormones, etc... change with loss and that makes your body need time to re-adjust.

I was very successful with it a couple of years ago. I was diagnosed with RA about a year and half ago. I am still on predisone. Steroids make me crave sugar. I managed to gain it all but 5 pounds back.<br />I enjoy reading your blog. Your organizational skills inspired me to get my sewing room in order. The heart blocks you did are so beautiful. I hope you signed one. If not, I will take care of doing that.Barbara Arcementhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02930892007834568289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8547359357445201023.post-66014085901145274602011-08-21T16:56:40.071-05:002011-08-21T16:56:40.071-05:00Love your blocks.The linked heart is really adorab...Love your blocks.The linked heart is really adorable.<br /><br />Congrats on the weight loss.Rosahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16658886355427916313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8547359357445201023.post-90426988051366275162011-08-21T16:12:21.384-05:002011-08-21T16:12:21.384-05:00Congrats on the weight loss.

You might check to see if there's a First Place 4 Health Bible study in your area. They offer a lot of encouragement. A verse I like is Deut. 30:11, "Now what I am commanding you today is not too difficult for you or beyond your reach."Salliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04595920651501562113noreply@blogger.com
