The Melting Ms. Martini

Miss Gillian... wow! How did Boxing Day go? Sounds like a typical family with typical issues. Maybe not all weight related but there is usually a topic that is off limits!

Miss Sheila, I hope the evil box was good to you before you left!!

Miss C.C., thank you! I hope you had the best of Christmas' as well!!

Well, my weigh in this week wasn't too bad considering I have eaten whatever I want, whenever I want!

Not to mention I have not worked out since Saturday... UGH!

Oh, it was 192.8... down .8 pounds. Not quite to the 191 that I was hoping for but not terrible by any means. Hopefully I will get my lazy self to the gym for a noon class today. I've been fighting off a head cold for what feels like the last week. That combined with a bit of a hangover from too much vodka yesterday... I'm not sure the gym is where I need to be!

But I'm going to go anyway. I have just a week to see the 180's and make my quickly planned short term goal. Even if it's not made, I'm still moving in the right direction!

All the holiday get togethers went very well and my weight loss caused a conversation at each location. My BIL claimed to not recognize me when he first saw me.

I think I made it into a picture or 2 so I'll have to post another "in progress" shortly. I'm curious to see if there is much difference since October.

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas!!

Hey, we have something else in common, too much Vodka!!

But I think I took it further than you, I had a mixed drink of Grey Goose vodka and pineapple rum w/a splash if pineapple juice.

It tastes great, but you gotta watch it because it doesnt take much to get you going!!

Keep working toward that mini-goal, I am absolutley sure you will succeed!!

Hey Anissa,

Thanks for that.

So glad, to have you, back here.

Sounds like you were merry and had a good time.

Things should be winding down for everyone and routines will become normal again.

Time to start kicking somemore butt, ms.martini.

Did I read correctly .8 lost ? If so that is great

no weight gain.

Either way, no weight gain, would be great news, all by itself alone.

Looks like, you were the bell of the ball, (Regards to your weightloss). I liked that and quoted sheila. She said that to me in a post, in regards to my thanksgiving and everyone noticing my weightloss.

Iam so glad, you seemed to have stirred some ppl up and they must have been shocked.

It is about dang time, ppl started talking about your weightloss.

You deserve some recognition, you have kicked arse, to get, to where you are.

I for one, would love to see, a before weightloss photo and a current one, myself.

I bet there would be alot of difference in your apperance.

If you decide to do that please post one, so we all can see.

ttyl, c.c.

I hopefully will do a update later today myself.

Oh Tanika... I'd still be in bed if I drank that! The sugar would do me in alone. I'm a straight girl... chilled with a twist of lemon please.

Miss C.C., good to be back! The holidays sure do mess up our routines... but they are still fun! I was thrilled people are finally noticing!!

So I hit the gym and now all I want to do is go back to bed! I took a few minutes are created this little gem of a pic to share. I didn't have much to choose from... why are we always behind the camera instead of in front of it?

I'm not seeing much difference from Halloween to Christmas but it could just be the angles(let's hope!). I'll have to get handsome hubby to take a few later. If not, I know there'll be some from New Year's Eve.

I'm off to shower and I really think a nap is in order!!
