I have to ask you- are you really a Trixie Belden fan? I read EVERY SINGLE Trixie Belden book when I was little. I collected the series (there were 31 or 32 when I left off...) Second of all, it looks from your tickers that you have lost A LOT of weight!! Great job- I am really impressed. I have a lot to lose & I haven't lost any so far, so I admire all of you that have stuck with it for so long and seen results. Yay! It's possible!Natalie C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10463944619586110995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31480408.post-39479450250327657812007-03-25T07:06:00.000-04:002007-03-25T07:06:00.000-04:00Oh my Lord, a woman that says "too cool for school...Oh my Lord, a woman that says "too cool for school" AND drinks RUM!

We (meaning me) are doing ok, but it is pretty tough. We are passed (twice! they stopped for a break) by a group of people my parents age, going uphill. Then, when we get to the overlook part and have lunch, as we are leaving this elderly couple walking their little dog stroll up, looking as if they had just stepped off their patio in their sportswear. As I climbed over a large tree on the trail that was nearly chest high, I asked--how did those people do it! But they were very inspiring to us, and we hoped that when we were 75 we could just stroll over the Appalachians with our little terriers leading the way, like they did.Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17589325994398729132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31480408.post-19801385004485622662007-03-20T12:22:00.000-04:002007-03-20T12:22:00.000-04:00sounds like you're having a great time... and i ha...sounds like you're having a great time... and i have to agree - it IS much easier to manage things (food, etc.) when your alone... i find myself more tempted to eat unhealthy when i'm with my boyfriend, just because he has more crap in his pantry... ugh! :-pJODIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02805275154320491839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31480408.post-8771772672067018742007-03-20T12:10:00.000-04:002007-03-20T12:10:00.000-04:00Good job on working out while on a vacation.

Although you had difficulty eating-wise, you were able to maintain going to the gym, WW meetings, and blogging. That's 3 out of 4. That's success in my book!<BR/><BR/>Going on trips, I think are challenging to most people. Even/especially to mom and dad's house. Even with supportive parents as yours. Personally, I always have difficulty with staying on my plan when I go on vacation anywhere. But I think with practice, we might get it right most of the time.Lily Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13800549065824946323noreply@blogger.com
