nov. 28th - well, it's over and i didn't make the fifty pounds. at one point i was at 46, but as of yesterday it was 43. so now i'll aim for fifty-by-new year's, or christmas maybe. i'm a bit disappointed. i feel good and i'm happy to be holding steady and not regaining, i just wish i could have made the 50 to say i did it. i'm not giving up though. i'll keep plugging away, see how much more i can manage to lose in the next year. i'll keep blogging too but maybe every two weeks. on sundays i think. that'll help keep me on tract hopefully. back to work on friday, vacation's almost over. i think i'll treat myself to the last piece of birthday cake and a nice cup of tea.
back in a couple weeks, D.

nov. 18th - i'm cheating a little (again) but i weigh myself pretty much every day and there was a day that i was down 3 lbs so i'm going with that. it changes from day to day by a lb or two i find, up, down then up again, whatever. i saw the 3 lbs with my own eyes and that's what i'm sticking with. i'm on vacation now until my birthday. this is my last shot at losing 50 lbs by 50. not gonna happen i'm afraid. maybe i'll go running every day until my birthday to see if i can get there. naw, that's not gonna happen either. oh, well, 10 more days til my last check in. the last hoorah.

nov.8 - man, i've just about had it, i gained 2 1/2 lbs. how does that happen? i had salads for my lunches at work, i didn't eat one speck of halloween candy, and still i didn't lose anything. i might just as well eaten all those peanut butter cups that were left, but i didn't. so now i'm at  around 43-44 lbs total and it looks like that's as good as it's going to get. cr......p! two more check ins to go, it's not gonna be pretty.
