I kept going down but when I had to give up more points (and eat a little less food), I quit -- and, of course, gained back some of the weight. I'm working my day down again. Gosh, darn, if I just didn't enjoy food so much! You look fabulous!

I'm gluten-free to try to slow the progression of my arthritis. The weight loss is a bonus and definitely helps my joints! :)Lorettahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07170601007421855433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6942097866658027545.post-80608629559577024302014-01-22T20:03:59.149-05:002014-01-22T20:03:59.149-05:00Thanks, Julie! :)Thanks, Julie! :)Lorettahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07170601007421855433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6942097866658027545.post-21532543234212303872014-01-22T20:02:55.478-05:002014-01-22T20:02:55.478-05:00Thanks, Kristin.

I've battled my weight all my life too....I think during my college years I finally trimmed down for all of 5 minutes....then back in the mid '80 I did WW (the first time around) and lost almost 1/2 a person...that lasted a little longer but I managed to find 'her' again (and a friend too...lol) BUT it will be 3 yrs this coming July that I said "yo girl, you're not getting any younger but you sure are getting wider"...so back to WW I went....made goal (again) about a yr later...(that was -48lbs)...and now at about 60lbs down (61 on a good day..haha)....I can add ww 'receptionist' to my repertoire (my moonlighting job away from the quilt shop...lol)....it's still a daily 'challenge' that I think only those who have been there (or are there) can understand...so KUDOS TO YOU!!!!
