almost freaking fall

hey all!
I know, I know, I never call, I never write....
I am still 157-159ish back and forth, up and down.
Now that fall is arriving(dammit!) I will get going again and actually make goal and learn to maintain properly. I have been maintaining all summer thank God.
This week, I want to get back on track because we are going away next Sunday for a week and I don't want to have to worry all week that I should be dieting. I figure if I lose a little before, I won't worry about gaining a little during and will restart after.
We are heading down to Cocoa Beach, FL to look at buying a house that we can rent out as a vacation home. This way we'll have a home base here in the states for when we move to England. Hopefully it'll get rented enough to pay for itself.
We can spend time there when we come back to visit and it'll be in a place with things to do so friends and family may visit us there. We can also bring my in-laws there for visits which I know they'd enjoy. They had so much fun coming to the US for our wedding and would enjoy going to the beach and wildlife preserves near where we are house hunting.
Back on the subject I am supposed to be blogging about-One of the things that has been helping me to maintain my current weight, even though I am not sticking to the diet completely, I have been eating the Ideal protein breakfast cereal so one meal a day is low calorie. I also usually have the BBQ or Garlic & Onion Soy Nuts as a night-time snack.

  1. Just thought I'd pop in and see how you are... or if you are!?!

    You look great!!!

    So you're still going? Good for you.

    I've been on 6 months and have lost over 50 lbs so far.

    How's married life treating you?

    Did you buy a house in Florida?

    I live 30 away from Cocoa Beach! We could have met!

  2. Hi Melissa!so nice to see you!
    we bought a house in Merritt Island and will be moving down around Thanksgiving, so we can still meet.
    Wow-50 lbs! good for you!
    I am going back on the diet tomorrow after going off on vacation. I did manage to maintain all summer but still need to get to goal. I have to say I love being a size 10 and would love being an 8 even more!
    I like being married altho it seems the same as before being we lived together. let's see if we don't kill each other fixing up the house together!lol!

  3. Hi Linny,

    I wonder if you even will get this. It's been over a year and a half since your last blog post. Did you continue with the Ideal Protein diet? Did you move to England? I have some questions if you don't mind emailing me privately. Thanks!
