My biggest challenge is to be consistant with my diet and my exercise. So far, so good! Being part of this forum makes me accountable and keep me focused!

Blissful, to make sure that I eat enough veggies, I prepare them on sunday night and put them in zipplocs...in the morning, I just take one bag for my lunch and another for my break. Makes it so much easier!

~thanks for the tip meggy.

don't you find the veggies to be a little "off" by the end of the week???

Or do you just prepare certain long life veggies?

Hi, fellow Vancouverite! Good luck in your goals. I haven't set a solid weight goal for May, but I'd LOVE to reach 163 lb sometime this month. Fingers crossed...

Veggies have been a HUGE help to me in my weight loss, and I hope they'll grow on you the way they grew on me; I hated salad when I started this weightloss thing, and now I eat salad without dressing because I actually like the taste! So crazy...

10 lbs would be nice, but I've been sick the last week, so I'll set a goal of 8 pounds by May 31st and secretly cross my fingers and hope for 10 Good luck everyone else!

I would love to get to 259 before my 40th birthday June 22 but the 31st sounds even better. So I'm in. That would rock, although 255 is my my next major milstone.

~ I am so happy that you guys have decided to step and do this for your selves!

I weighed myself this a.m. and I am down 4, which I have changed in my ticker!

I think any goal that makes us better healthier people is a good goal!!!!!

I bought some fun colored cauliflower today, purple and orange!

I have never seen that before, so guess what is for dinner tonight!!!!

Keep up the great work, and please check in when you can!

Congratulations Blissful for your weight loss! It's a great start!!!

I haven't lost anything this week but I know I'm on the right path by the way I feel...meaning more energized! Since I started exercising again, I feel better when I wake up in the morning.

To answer your question blissful, I prepare all kinds of vegetables on sunday night (I just finished!) but I make sure to eat some vegetables on mondays or tuesdays (like cucumbers, tomatoes or asparagus) but I can wait until wenesday or thursday for the pepper, broccoli, turnip, carrots or cauliflower...white, purple or orange ;-) It's a great idea blissful to try a new vegetable!

Have a great week everyone! :-)
