    128 today. Hubby goes away for a week so will proobably lose more, as he won't be cooking.

    Heidi - I have the opposite effect when DH is away. Instead of eating healthy meals I am lazy and eat a lot of junk.

    Lynn- I'm doing great !!!  Lost 2 more lbs, but it was only because I was so sick I couldn't eat for 2 days, lol.  So went down to 143 and but now back up to 145. I should be down a pound by friday, but you're still ahead of me, Yikes!  I better get walking!!

    All in all, I'm pleased because at the height of bc, I was dangerously close to 160.  So to be in the 140's is wonderful!!! I think the only good thing about back fat (new to me) is you can't see it in the mirror, right??? !!!

    Yeah Heidi and Monika... keep going down :)

    Go figure, went through 6 months of treatment without getting sick, now with the temperature fluctuations I get a lousy cold.

    Heidi:  Lol, I am the same--my DH cooks enough for 4 when he cooks.  When he's gone I eat pretty light.  He was just out of town for a week so maybe that's why my weight is down!

    BTW:  My dr's scale is pretty close to my Wii scale--155!  Yay!!

    tnbcRuth:  I was 170 something at my diagnosis--fattest I have ever been.  Never going there again.

    MonikaV:  So glad you found your dog!  I would be frantic if one of my pets got lost.  Congratulations on going down in weight!!

    tnbcRuth:  Sorry you were sick.  Sounds like you are doing well.  I have been enjoying walking, but now it's getting windy.   I don't like to walk in the wind, so I need to find another workout . . .

    Heidi:  128 sounds great.  I think that would be my perfect weight--I could fit into a lot of my clothes then.

    Ya' know, I don't like to walk in the wind either !  Enjoy it on the beach, but not around the neighborhood.  It has been raining for 2 solid days here.  2 solid days !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I went to bed at 145lbs and am at 148.8 right now.  Heidi, don't post that !!!  I still have tomorrow~  I sleep allllllll the time and still don't feel 100%.  oh well.  Listen to this...my girlfriends and I are getting together tomorrow night for app's and 'tails and one of them that has glorious long blonde hair is going to wear my wig as an April Fools Day joke !!!!  The girls will be shocked and horrified that she cut her hair. Then they'll look over at me with my 'clown wig' and think I'm the one kidding them...(no I"m not in love with the red hair today).  It should be pretty funny!

    Ya', I would like to get to 128.....better yet, 120!

    I like that "app's and tails".  I guess a lot of people are getting the rain.  We don't see much rain where I live (New Mexico) I would actually enjoy it.  We run outside when it starts to rain here lol.

    I don't know how we gain a couple of pounds overnight, but it has happened to me.

    tracie--- I know, maddening, isn't it? But according to what I've posted, you *have* lost 10 pounds, right? I mean, you've done it! If I've been recording accurately you are the first to lose ten pounds. Congrats!

    How about the admiration of all those trying to follow in her footsteps?

    Does that work?

    I'm still plugging away definately haven't gained and probably lost 3 or 4 pounds.  I'm still exercising and wearing my pedometer and doing at least 10,000 steps per day. I'm also eating sensibily. However, I did have a treat the other night when I took my DD and her friend to the movies. I finally got to try the M&M Prezels and oh, were they ever good.  I split the bag with the two girls so I didn't eat too many.  It was a really nice treat and I'm glad I tried them.

    You gals are on the right path!  I applaud you!  I know you have seen the articles recently on weight gain and recurrence.  If not, here is a link to recent research: http://news.yahoo.com/s/hsn/20110406/hl_hsn/severeweightgainafterbreastcancermaythreatenhealth

    I put on 30 pounds after my first diagnosis... around the time I suspected my cancer had come back (3 yrs later, and yes, TN), I went totally sugar free (cancer feeds on sugar more than normal cells), caffeine and soda (anything carbonated).  I lost 25 pounds in 6 weeks, and it really wasn't that bad.  I eat a lot of fruit and veggies and try not to eat any 'white" carbs.  I've lost another 5-10 now on chemo again, but my weight is back down to a healthy 155 instead of pushing near 185-190!   I'm excercising again too.  Cancer cells hate oxygen also...do even if you don't do a lot of excercise, take time during the day to do deep breathing exercises!!   I wish you all well!!

    Karen:  That sounds like what I did when I lost my first 30--for some reason the remaining ##'s are more difficult.  I have to eliminate everything from my diet to get there.

    fighter:  Yay for you!  So glad your detox worked.
