I've been being good, even though not able to do my workouts.
Last night I did crunches in bed (can't do on the floor, cause cant get up - have to use crutches at least for another week)

This morning, decided to get on the scale. No easy task. Using crutches, step up, bring bad foot up, put crutches against fridge.
Had to do it 4 times - 4 times!!!!

scale said 189 - ALL 4 TIMES!!!! No doubt about it! I am taking it. don't care if it says something else tomorrow - I'm in a new decade and claiming it.

MK- I congratulated you in the Thanksgiving Challenge thread, but I wanted to do it again here....even though you're making the rest of us non-losers look bad!

I was on my Gazelle yesterday and burned 300 calories and I didn't lose. You're laying in bed trying to do crunches and you're in a new decade...SHOWOFF!!!

Just giving you a hard time! That just proves you are dedicated and totally devoted to this way of LIVING. Alot of people would use the ankle surgery as an excuse to slack off, but you didn't. You deserve to move into a new decade. May many more pounds follow those already gone.
