update for WE 9-26
I thought I'd just post an update of my week for those interested.
Sun. - Packers lost, but so did the Niners (sorry Martha it's a work thing - the boss is a SF fan). Cooked dinners for DH during the entire game and a week's worth of HMR cookies for me. Ate an HMR entree in addition to the shakes. Did Susan Powter tape in AM. Mon. - Ran 3 mi in AM, hit Curves after work. Tue. - First day with no workout in months because I overslept. Needed the sleep more than the workout. Couldn't go after work because I had a football game to attend. Still put over 17,000 steps on pedometer. Wed. - Ran 3 mi in AM. HMR in PM. Weighed in at 153.5, committed to starting transition back to food next week (eating the potoato) regardless of whether or not I hit 150 (my fasting goal weight) - brought home entrees for 5 nights. Volleyball league after HMR. Ran 1 mi to warm up then played 3 games, shagged balls, and did spiking drills. Real games start next week. Thu. - WEIGHED 150 POUNDS in AM. Decided it was water fluctuation and would be back up the next day. Went to work feeling giddy. Curves after work, then 90 min yoga class. Ate an entree. Fri. - STILL WEIGHED 150 POUNDS. Went to Curves before work for the first time. Got my monthly weigh in and measurements. Waist is now 29.5" down from 47" (-2.5" this month). Hips went down 2". I'm too numb from the shock to wrap my mind around this. Ate an entree. Weekend plans: Sat - 3 mi walk to raise $$ for Alzheimer's, then Curves, and then work all day in classroom. Sun - 5 mi hike (weather permitting - it's supposed to rain all day/rain plan is short run then power yoga) and then cook in the afternoon. Oh, and by the way, I HIT MY FLIPPIN "mini" GOAL. I also updated my web page with a current pic (www.resurvey.org/jenn/hmr). (BTW ladies - the pants in the pic are the cords I bought 6 days ago - mentioned in other threads - and they're already getting loose) Jenn 300/150/14? (need to re-evaluate) The weather man says snow on Monday |

Jenn, congratulations on making 150! And, of course, on your overall
transformation, which is nothing short of amazing. You look wonderful! Chris |

I'm actually looking forward to snow (ski fever), but this weekend here in Portland we're supposed to hit 90 again. It's been a super hot and dry summer for the PNW... I have to say - although I've never had more than 40 or so lbs to lose, every time I see your website and the progress you've made, I'm just awe-struck. I'm curious how your husband has been through your transition... Seem like it would be such a huge change for him too. Anyways, I congratulate you on your success - I think you're amazing. det |

"determined" wrote in message news Gosh, snow already? Where do you live? I'm actually looking forward to snow (ski fever), but this weekend here in Portland we're supposed to hit 90 again. It's been a super hot and dry summer for the PNW... I'm in far northern Wisconsin, just south of Lake Superior - on the fringe of an area called "the Lake Superior snow belt." My first year up here we had snow on 9/21, then 70's during deer hunting season (the week before Thanksgiving). Go figure. I swear this morning there was snow mixed with rain when I was driving to Curves. BTW, my brother and his family are right over the border from you in Vancouver, WA. I have to say - although I've never had more than 40 or so lbs to lose, every time I see your website and the progress you've made, I'm just awe-struck. I'm curious how your husband has been through your transition... Seem like it would be such a huge change for him too. Anyways, I congratulate you on your success - I think you're amazing. det My husband has been great. He was initially shocked when I told him I wanted to try HMR and he didn't think I'd be able to stick with it but kept that to himself. Once I was under 200 lbs he was convinced I'd make it all the way. It's been huge for him and we've had issues, but we're very good at working through stuff. I received a large and very beautiful flower arrangement at work today in celebration of this latest milestone. Thanks for the compliments. I think most of the posters here on ASD are pretty darn amazing (yourself included) and I'm glad to have so much support from everyone. Jenn |

What an inspiration! You do look wonderful. How many snow days do your
kids get? I would never survive a winter of so much snow. Elise (who will not absolutely, positively not drive in the snow due to a severe chicken like tendency in that regard).
