View DAWNNSCOTT's food & exercise for this day
OMGosh! I got up this morning and I was down 2 pounds. That makes 22 pounds down. Tomorrow is my official weigh in, so I hope it is the same or more

I hit a plataeu(sp?) for so long!! It feels good to move down.
Soccer~~
Tonight is the last night for camp. At 7:00pm they are having the world cup finals. My kids are so excited!! Then at 7:30pm they are having an awards ceremony. They hand out trophy's for....the Camper of the week, the Sportsmanship award....and so on. It's so cool.
I have to say Kayla looks great!! She has worked so hard this week. I am sure she has dropped some weight. I mean 3 hours of soccer...who wouldn't. My children went through 1.75 cases of water in 4 days. They did have a gatorade each day. If they didn't I am sure they would have finished the water all together. I am fine w/ that. The heat is so intense they totally need to stay hydrated. It's suppose to be close to 100* today. I need to get another case of water this morning for them. Kayla wants another gatorade for tonight. She likes the one called Rain.
Tomorrow~~
My SIL, and BIL, are coming over to help us take this tree down. My MIL and FIL will be up to. I am gonna cook something on the grill for dinner and make some blueberry cobbler for dessert. YUMMY!
I cleaned out our office. What a project. Holy Cow! It took me 3 hours. I got rid of a lot of "stuff". Why do we hold on to so much stuff? It's crazy.
I also cleaned my boys room. I got rid of a bunch of clothes and shoes and toys and books. It feel so good to do that. That only took 2 hours. But I have to say both rooms look so nice. Now my new project is my closet. I want to get rid of the big fat clothes. I refuse to keep them. That is just a crutch. I don't need crutches
School~
School starts September 6th. We will be school shopping soon. That's another reason I was cleaning, to see what fits and find out what they'll need for school. The schools sent home lists for Kayla and Jacob. UGH!! The school supply.....hold on I know they supply something...NOT!! Anyway we need to get a bunch of things to start them off.
Gym~
I'm going to the gym soon. I usually do the elliptical for 30 minutes= 300 calories and then I do lots of crunches. I am trying to build up my stomach muscles. I do about 200-300 every other day.
Question...has anyone lost weight in their girls? I haven't. It's frustrating. I was thinking on having a reduction but I am a sissy. I know I'd feel better but having surgery is not so appealing to me.
Well I need to run. Have a great day. Stay cool.

Great news on the 2 pounds!!! I am all for throwing out the big clothes. I can't wait to take out my winter wardrobe and get rid of a lot of things...I tend to hold on to my "girls" and have never been small chested --regardless of my size. But I was always in proportion so as I loss they will get smaller, but not small...
:) I would wait until making any decisions about a reduction until you are at the weight you want to be. If you are still uncomfortable about the size at that time, then I would do it. I know someone who did it and she is very happy). I think you have to have "big girls" to appreciate the situation so I do understand. Take care...Grace

Dawn, You are a power house of energy.
Two pounds, what a nice number when added to the twenty.
This heat is really devastating, but you have the hydration under control.
Enjoy the summer.

The school supply lists seem to get worse every year. This year, we had a very specific "Post-it notes, .75x2" (which didn't exist) on the list, and an ambiguous "zip drive" item. The schools drive me nuts. My daughter's classes start on Aug. 20 ... we still don't have a schedule, a bus assignment, teachers or after-school activities list. And we won't until Aug. 14th, I'm assured. Good luck, Dawn. /// GREAT job on the weight! Keep on truckin'!

Thank you so much! I am hearing more and more of these kinds of stories and it still surprises me how much people are stuck in this conventional relationship thing...

Way to go on the 2 pounds! Actually that was the first place where I lost it (my butt and thighs are the last place it is going from), I think it just varies with each person. Since last June I have lost about 3 inches in my girls. Kevin hates that but I sure dont!!
