OK - I'm now divorced from the ex from hell. He did not show up. Rodney came with me and as much as I feared a confrontation between the two, I'm lucky he was there for support. I had to fill out a couple more documents and they said they need me to return in two weeks; I nearly fainted in the courtroom thinking just how can I stay married to this man for a few more weeks. But Rodney was there to pick me up and keep all my paperwork in check because I just lost it. We got the final docs in, judge signed it and now I'm offical "Nancy Mer". I have my name back - so happy.

When I was gettin' ready this morning I couldn't find anything nice to wear. Rodney went into my back closet and started pulling clothes out and I was like, it's too small, I can't fit in it yet. He brought out a pair of black pants size 7 and I'm like no, I still have about 10 lbs before I can fit. He said try them on and oh my goodnessssssss - they fit, a bit snug but they fit. I guess I haven't realized how much "fat" I've lost because I was so focused on the scale and it's not my friend. But my clothes are fitting and to me that's better then a scale any day.

Thank you guys for all the notes, I feel the love and support and I can't thank each of you enough for keeping me in your thoughts.

so happy for you that it is all over. and WOW on the dress size. congrats. Looks like you had a good day I as hoping that your ex would not show up. thank goodness he didn't. take care and enjoy the rest of your day.

Ladies,

So sorry it's just so busy in the office. I will do booster notes, read blogs and be back on the forum to read the posts once I get these invoices out.

I am glad things went smoothly for you today. Yea - you got your name back!! It is nice when you have someone by your side that loves and supports you and helps you to sort through the pieces for you when you can't during emotionally charged situations. Love is great!!! Fitting into your long lost pants is also great!! Well don't feel you have to read over blogs or rush to post boosters. Take the time you need for yourself too! Maybe you and Rodney can have a special night out together to celebrate the "official" return of Nancy Mer.

turning in early tonite. Have to pick my MIL from the hospital. (she works there in the lab) and i am just tiered. hope everyone had a great day.

I know where I'm going to be. The Pool....
Well everybody have a great Night and

GOOD LUCK WITH WEIGH IN TOMORROW !!!!!!

I did my workout today 10 minutes on a stationary bike and 30 minutes on an eliptical (vigourously) 105 jumping jacks, and I will shoot for another 15-20 minutes on the stationary bike... Plus some stomach work! The good news is I hit 139 today! The 130s finally - I was beginning to feel like I was never going to get here..It feels good, but I need to do better still. I am only 4 pounds from my goal weight now!!

Wow Michelle! You worked out so hard today. And look, you are reaping the rewards- the 130's!!!!! I'm sure it feels great to be so close to goal. You can do it, I know you can.

The end of another long day. I did 30 minutes on the bike and swam 60 laps. I'm used to sweating so much when I worked out on the elliptical. It really felt like I was doing something. Although the laps take up a lot of time and I know I'm working out my whole body, I'm not sure how much it's working me out. Only time will tell. Good luck at weigh in tomorrow everyone!!!!

Wow Dawn, 60 laps is alot! Plus the bike -good for you! Your not letting anything stop you from getting activity. I don't know by experience because I can't swim (blushing). I can say though that everyone I know that uses swimming as a form of exercise is fully toned throughout their bodies. Their toning looks better then when you just do spinning or running. I don't know why. Maybe you should look into water aerobics too isn't that what Mariah Carey used to lose alot of weight? It might be worth a try. Swimming is supposed to be one of the lowest impact yet effective exercises around. So good job!
