205.5

Still at 205.5 and I'm ok with that.  Had a VERY late night last night due to an issue at the grocery store.  See, where I live, there are LOTS of store options.  Kroger's, Ingle's, Walmart, Target, Earthfare, Fresh Market just to name a few.  However, not all of these options are open late.  SO, I almost always end up at Krogers.  Mostly because I prefer their produce to Walmart's, they're open later than Target, and their prices are much cheaper than say, Earthfare.  So, I go last night for my monthly large trip only to get to the front of the store with $400 and they have CLOSED ALL THE REGISTERS!  Now, this isn't normal.  This is a 24hr. store.  The only thing open was self checkout and I literally had a double cart piled up with stuff overflowing the bottom.  I - WAS - LIVID!!!!  I was like, you have GOT to be kidding me!  The BOY was like, Ma'm, we close the other registers at 11.  I was like, it's not 11!  Not to mention, WHAT are you suppose to do with this much?  Needless to say, it took the two of us nearly half an hour to get all that pulled out, rang up, weighed (the USCAN is based on weight), bagged, and put into another cart.  I was so angry I felt like CRYING!  I couldn't help it -- I just could not believe that a 24hr. store wouldn't have ONE register open!!!

Anyways, it was late when I got home, I was exhausted, and frustrated.  So, I had a hot dog and went to bed.  I just figured I'd get up to a gain this morning and my first weight said 206.0, but I weighed again and got 205.5.  So, to be fair, I weighed one more time and 205.5.  I just figured I would be up from being stressed, not much sleep, and missing my usual snack due to being hung up at the store.  Makes me happy just to see the 205.5!

Other than that, I am puttering right along.  I am trying really hard to be supportive on here and along the way, keep myself motivated!  And on the forums.  I just wish the low carb forums were a bit more active.  Not crazy, but just a bit more active!  I know, I know -- I'm old hat at this supposedly, but I love finding out new info.  I'm a 'lifetime learner' -- just not in a college sense.  But when they are moving so slow, it's hard to be excited.  And I guess that's what I am right now after feeling like it was such a struggle when I first started.  Who knew that the key was to just cut the carbs back more!  LOL

Well, I believe I am going to tie this up.  I need to go fold up a ton of laundry.  But before that, I want to update my goals page.  After another poster asked about goals, it got me to thinking about mine so I am going to go and update mine.  :D
