The fun's over! It's time for an Easter (Sunday, March 31) Challenge!

I understand our fight Lynn, the battle, the constant whining and bargaining I do ( in my head! ) like at 5:30 when my DS offered to buy DD and I Pizza Pizza with wings and such, I should have screamed NO!!! but he looked so handsome in his suit coming in after class ( special attire today) and that smile, so I eagerly said
" oh how nice of you " Portion control was my plan and even though I indulged it was a far cry from the amount I would have scarfed down in the past, so I chalk it up as a win anyway.
Stay as strong as you can over the w/e everyone, I know that saboteur Easter Bunny is not far from our doors too!

Aw, how sweet of your son...and so true...how on earth can you say no to such a generous offer? But you're right...portion control is everything in those situations. Today is our DD's b'day and I'm making a not- very-legal dinner, and the triple-layer cake that her DH and our grandson are making today...? HOW can one refuse?! Lol! Should be lots of fun....he's SO exciting about her b'day!

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Thanks Lynn. You all know this leg has been a battle for me. I still want to lose that last 5-10 lbs, but it is not happening right now. But I will continue to fattle with you all (so I left to deal with babies and hubby changed the b to an f so it looks like I typed fattle instead of battle by accident and I decided to leave it lol). I am happy with maintaining right now. I will lose the last bit eventually, but I am going to be glad I stuck with it and maintained rather than gained. We all want to lose, but if we are plateauing keeping going forward so our next move is still a down and not an up.

Oh I gained 1. Which means I am up 1 from my start of this. Hence the plateauing reference as I have been up down up down, lose gain lose gain every week.

I too am having a plateau fattle!!My new favorite word!

Hon, you are in the same boat as our DD, and if it makes you feel better, the staff at Herbal Magic are having a problem getting her to maintain and or lose the last 6lbs...she's a size 6 now, so I don't have a ton of sympathy, LOL!! When I used to plateau, I took a day, usually Sunday and ate whatever I wanted...from papa burgers, to spaghetti..whatever I wanted. That stopped my body from feeling it had to retain every ounce of food it received. There was a point that I did that every week and lost perfectly! Amof, this past year, even Dr Oz suggested doing the same for those last stubborn pounds, or if plateauing. Perhaps give that a try?
I probably inadvertently did that this past year of loss since I ate whatever I wanted on holidays, b'days and we know how often those things crop up....Good luck and don't fret those last few right now...it'll happen! :)

I am so determined to have a great week!!

Peeps better stay out of my way :p

Yeah times like this it's difficult to take care of my folks. I have no patience cause I feel like crap myself.

Hopefully it's a 24 hour thing.

Feel better Patty. That emoticon is er gross!

Lynn your kinds words are so nice! I am wearing a 10-12. But considering I was wearing maternity clothes for over two years. I am pretty happy.

I think once it warms up and I am motivated to start walking again that will help with those last few. Honestly, I am proud I have stuck with you guys, because that is the real challenge. Knowing I have to check in keeps me from continuing to be bad...
