Shelley's Update

Hello Ladies,

I'm not gone-- I've just been a sick; everyone in my family has.  Bummer.  Oh how I wished when I stepped on the scale this morning that my sickness would have contributed to weight loss.  It didn't.  But at least it didn't contribute to weight gain either.  I'm still at 144.  I'm not feeling too bad about it because I didn't pay attention to what I ate, nor did I exercise one lick.

So even though my week is 1/2 over, my goal is to get back on the wagon and make the next 3 days really count.  I'm going to track my points, drink lots of water and do some moderate exercising for the next 3 days.

I'm so inspired by you all.  I leave for Hawaii in 4 weeks.  I really wanted to have my weight gone by then, but I think that 14 pounds in 4 weeks isn't really possible.  Part of me just wanted to give up, but I look at you guys (especially not eating German chocolate cake sitting on the counter) and I think that maybe I can do that too.  I'm readjusting my goal to 7 pounds.  I think that's totally doable in 4 weeks.

I'll be back on Monday to report the next 3 days.
