I've reached goal and gained the weight back TOO MANY times. Enough of that. I need to focus on keeping it off.<BR/><BR/>sauchagirl - I agree 100%. When those last couple pairs of pants fit it will be a huge victory, and when/if they ever stop fitting it should be a huge red flag!<BR/><BR/>Kate and ready made - thanks! You guys are great.<BR/><BR/>manuela - I had been exercising ... I think it's safe to say that when I firm up a tad more and get a little more body fat off, I'll be in them no problem. I can put them on now, they're just a little bit tighter than is ideal. PS - I'm with you on the water! I'm trying to drink more earlier in the day.HappyBlogChickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04877638142823386746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1314559417603468949.post-38930627666445859492008-03-04T15:52:00.000-06:002008-03-04T15:52:00.000-06:00You're awesome Happy.I'm wondering about the cloth...You're awesome Happy.<BR/><BR/>I'm wondering about the clothes you say you're not fitting into because of the extra pounds. When you bought those things, had you been exercising? I know that things are fitting me a lot differently now because my body type has changed. <BR/><BR/>Those pesky little pounds--good for you to not let it get you down. Just to let you know, I've had so many liquids today that I might start to float!!!Manuelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09330448362043206094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1314559417603468949.post-85754641916323578892008-03-04T15:06:00.000-06:002008-03-04T15:06:00.000-06:00I'm so inspired by your level-headed approach to t...I'm so inspired by your level-headed approach to this business of becoming fit and healthy.

That way it's not a number. Like you said your weight will fluctuate daily a few ounces or pounds but what you will always know is if your clothes fit.<BR/><BR/>In my eyes you've met your goal! I think you're doing fantastic and your switch to concentrating on fitness is a super idea because isn't that what it's ultimately all about anyway?<BR/><BR/>Have a great day!sauchagirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01402092111415493768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1314559417603468949.post-72533737645043219452008-03-04T10:27:00.000-06:002008-03-04T10:27:00.000-06:00Considering that reaching your goal weight really ...Considering that reaching your goal weight really isn't the finish line at all, just a leg in the journey, it's nice to hear of your plans of what to do afterwards. I've been thinking about the same thing (what happens once the goal is met), though in my case, it's putting the cart a bit before the horse. ;-) I wonder whether some people, once they reach their goal, finds the victory kindof empty... like "now what?" I don't know if you experienced that or not last time. But you have an answer to the "now what" question.<BR/><BR/>I like your lose or maintain philosophy. Hopefully you can avoid letting the scale drive you crazy. <BR/><BR/>Keep a last 7 day average? Sounds a little crazy, if you ask me...<BR/><BR/>It's nice to see you're doing so well on exercise. I have to twist my own arm to do it, but exercise (speaking for myself) is the thing that makes it all work. <BR/><BR/>Unrelated personal question of the day: Older or younger brother?Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03655496656655428284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1314559417603468949.post-11464915416982282602008-03-04T09:37:00.000-06:002008-03-04T09:37:00.000-06:00You are wise to appreciate the value of all those ...You are wise to appreciate the value of all those small weight losses...they mean you are headed in the right direction.
