Thank you, Lori! It's good to hear from you.
Rest of Summer Goals: 1. Exercise-Cardio: Min. 2-3 walking or DVD cardio workouts per week. 2. Exercise-Weights/Toning: Min. 1 weight plus 1 toning workout per week. 3. Food: Get those veggie servings back up to where they were! 4. Behavior: Start reducing sweets now that the automatic after-meal response is better.

Yes, yes and yes!
I already bought a place in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, within walking distance of my friends. I am moving January 19th but will still be employed full-time by the Government until my retirement on May 31st. In between, I will be working from home in Delaware all but 1 day a week, when I will drive to the office in Virginia.
Congratulations Sheri! I will be praying for you during this transition! How exciting for you
Blessings,
Lori

I've had several goodbye and holiday lunches since I'm moving to Delaware in a few weeks and won't be here in the office full-time anymore. This is only going to happen once, and is a very special time for me, so I'm just letting it be and not sweating over it.

I was at my current lowest for several days, then ate out last night and am now one up. I'm good. *** At my kids' school Xmas party earlier tonight, someone I haven't seen in a while came up to me and said "HOW much was it you lost?!" That felt good. Tomorrow I'm supposed to visit with relatives, and you can bet your last cent they won't say a word. That's family.
