Doug will send it out tomorrow Jen

I love Doug's carb counter....Not sure how I made it over a year without it!   Sure beats having to use google to find the carb counts.

I love how these threads branch out in every direction! I get the picture of a tree. Some trees are bushy, some are like weeping willows, and some are pretty sparse, but they're all interesting!

Hi Jen!

It's so nice to hear from you again!

Assuming your portion sizes have not increased, like Umpa said, "carb creep" may be the problem.
Post what you're eating, and we'll help get your progress restarted.

Great analogy Sarah

Hi all!  I know I've been super quiet lately.  Like I said - struggling with losing still.  Just started a new job, moving in a month, hubby is looking for a new job too.  Lots of changes!  I did drop below my 3lb bounce last week!  Yay!  Then I got on the scale 3 days later and was up - no lie, 3lbs!!      I told my husband to hide the scale for the next 2 weeks.  I know it's partly that I'm weighing every day (bad bad bad) and I'm PMSing so I know my water weight is way up right now. 
  Although I know I haven't been speaking up much, I just want you all to know how much I appreciate all of you and still check in almost everyday!  And FYI, Doug and Umpa, the Zero is the BOMB!!  I keep yelling at my husband to stop using "my" stuff! 

[SarahC]

It's nice to see your name on a post again, Jen! I have a bottle of zero in my purse and use it at restaurants in my ice tea or at friends' houses when we have tea. It's fun stuff!

HiYa Jen! its ok I know where you can get another one

It's nice to hear from you again, Jen!

Life can get very busy sometimes and we gotta do what we gotta do.
But never worry!... We'll always be right here for you!

And by all means, hide that darned scale!
Like Umpa says, they're evil and often misleading.

Hi all!  Just checking in...again.  I'm doing all right, finally starting to see the scale move consistently in a downward motion!  I broke a new plateau yesterday, below 160!  Only 20 more lbs!  I have been incredibly stressed out, and a odd side effect for me on this is that I've actually lost my appetite and my sweet tooth.  Not complaining, obviously!  I know my stomach has shrunk significantly, my portions are tiny now.  And if I eat too much I quickly become nauseous.  Hope everyone is doing well! 

[umpa]

46 pounds! That is so wicked cool! I get nauseous if I eat too fast too
