YIPEEEEE, I'm a 10

Ten pounds lost that is!!! The scale gods have smiled on me once again and I am down two more pounds! How did everyone else do?

And, before I end this post, can I just say thanks for all the kind words and encouragement last week. I did not eat even one little Donette, but I was very tempted!! Enjoy this little card, if I could, I would make one for each of you for all your support!

I always call my little girls "doll face" and so this "You're a doll card" is perfect for them. The doll is from Jack's World Blackboard shapes and I just covered it with the matching adhesive diecuts. The title is made with our Scripty Rub-ons. I hung the doll on ribbon long enough to be a young girl's necklace and just threaded it through slits on the card. This is the first version, in subsequent versions, I run the ribbon through both sides of the card and tie it closed.

  4. Congrats on being a "10"...you and Bo Dereck! I wish I could say I'm doing that good~NOT! I realized a little problem I was having with "Weigh in Wednesday"... I wasn't weighing in, but just saying "I will eat better and walk evey day for exercise". Lame. Today I actually WEGHED IN~like, on a scale that I hid in the bathroom, because I detest the thing. It is far too based in reality for my liking, so I have been avoiding it. For a good reason. I almost had a heart attack when I saw the number~scared the "shoot" out of me! Anyway, I am writing that number down in an envelope inside my Food Journal for a reality check and something to compare my efforts to besides "feeling better" and "my pants arn't so tight"...(my usual Health Plan Indicators). This is for REAL! I want to be a "Dollface", not a "Do-nut Face"!

  19. WOOHOO! That's awesome! Ten pounds is VERY impressive! When you said you were a 10, I pictured Bo Derek in that cornrow hairdo running on the beach. It's true.

    I love the card. Any little girl would be THRILLED to get that!

    Notice I'm avoiding the "how did you do" question. Enough said.

  20. I have to say I totally thought your donette video was hilarious!!! I want to work at Cosmo Cricket...if you ever need to open anything in Canada let me know...I'm your girl...and speaking of girl...that dollface card/necklace would be perfect for my niece....once again I would be the world's best aunt. Congrats on your weight loss. Maybe your luck will encourage me to do something about that myself.

  29. congratulations!! If you ever feel down about yourself, just go to the grocery store and pick up two five-pound bags of flour. Great reminder of how far you've come!

  30. Congrats Julie!! I had lost 10 pounds too ... but then in the middle I put some back. I'm now on the way down again - another pound this week.
    Wasn't eating more than usual that did it ... but less gardening, so for me it certainly seems that exercise is the big thing to keep the scales moving in the right way.
    Well done to everyone for sticking with it ... whether the scales moved this week or not!

  31. Congrats!!! Well, I had 2 pieces of my birthday cake which caused me to gain 2lbs. I've lost a half pound of that so far. Oh well...next week is a new week!!
