]]> Comment on Wednesday— and lots of stress! by Laura Jane http://3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/tkdtara84/2008/12/10/wednesday-and-lots-of-stress/#comment-54 Laura Jane Fri, 12 Dec 2008 01:33:20 +0000 http://3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/tkdtara84/?p=74#comment-54 I still think you're doing great getting through the marathon paper writing without eating too much. I know that was (and would be) a huge struggle for me. And your calories are great - you will still be losing weight. My plane gets into to Indy at 1:15pm. Let me know what you want to do. And I'm actually not flying back home - I'm riding back to Pittsburgh with Jason and Steve who are coming to our house for the year-end studies, so no worries about the luggage thing. But you are right, even a baggage fee, would be less than a bunch of new clothes. Right now, I'm a very solid size 16. I haven't met a 16 that's too big, but I can't wait to get there. It'll be another 5-10 pounds before I can squeeze into fourteens. But, for me, that 5 or 10 will take a good while. And I agree with you on getting rid of them - I have 3 pair of pants (size 18) that are truly too big for me, and I donated them to Goodwill. Won't be needing them again!

Goodness, girl, you're skinny! I mean, if someone stranger met you, they'd describe as skinny. I think I read in your one of your posts that you weren't sure if you needed to lose 30 more pounds and I think you're right. You may find that you're perfectly happy losing less than that. By the way, what are you doing with all your too big clothes? I need to come steal them. I'm in 16s now. I have a few 14s, but as I get into 12s and lower, I just don't have anything.

And what they always say: it's a "lifestyle." Which really is true. You are doing 200 times better than you would have previously done, and you've definitely learned how to eat better. You're not eating huge portions or ordering pizza, etc. Even though you're not following the plan to a T, you're using the things you learned. It's like it really has become a lifestyle for you. And the stressful times like these really are the true test. If you can make it through this on track, you can certainly make it through anything. And I'm still floored by your 50 pound loss - that is amazing. I'm still struggling to eek out pound 19 over here!

You are doing so well. Fifty pounds lost is a HUGE accomplishment. And, you're right, not many more to go. You can definitely see the finish line. And that is an accomplishment when you can eat "off-plan" and still be in control. It really is a lifestyle and a perspective change. Congratulations! You are doing so well.

Me too lately. They're so convenient and tasty! I know for me it's just a phase, but when you're at work it becomes really easy to reach for a power bar or something. Oh and cookie dough - uyyyy I feel your pain. I used to love eating the pre-packaged kind. So, so unhealthy but oh so tasty. - Mazza. P.s. are you Italian, ragazza? Oh man, with the bars…..
