Hi all! I know I'm a bit late to join in this goals thread. I've taken quite a hiatus for the last 2 months! Things have been insane in my family from my grandfather nearly dying to my uncle having brain surgery and then they found brain cancer (in the same week as my grandpa mind you). Things have just been crazy and finally seem to be calming down for the moment.
For the good news: My grandfather is doing better and my uncle is getting treatment for 6 weeks. He has about 2 years of a "normal life" left if the treatment works. He's in positive spirits, which is important.

Anyhow.. during this time I managed to keep my weight between 146 and 149, which is pretty insane considering I haven't counted calories for 2 months nor exercised on a regular schedule either.
This week I've decided it's time to continue and finish my journey!
So my goals for the rest of the month:
-Exercise 3-5/week
-Count my calories each day.

My exercise this week has been walking/running 2 miles which I've done twice so far.
Today is my first official day back to calorie counting regularly.

Hope everyone is doing well! I'll do personals later!

166 this morning. I'm in a rush this morning but wanted to tell everyone to have a great day!

tdiprincess - welcome back! glad that you held on to your ropes! just think of it as maintenance practice!


180.8 this morning. I ate well yesterday. so, body? ummmm? what the duck??

ya. i know i know, but i'm still upset. i just want to see 177. i've been re-losing and regaining the same 5 lbs for months, and i'm still like 10 lbs heavier then i was at the end of april!

[tdiprincess]

Toobig: Nice job!!
Stimkov: Thanks for the welcome back! It was good maintenance practice. The scale can be quite annoying and frustrating!! Keep eating healthy and staying active like you and it will pay off!!

I'm home from camping and overall I think I did pretty good! I've been taking a break from the scale since last week and I plan on weighing in on Monday. I'm just focussing on staying on plan until then because that hovering so close to onderland was killing me.

Still around ladies, just not doing awesome.. my head just isn't in it so I'm trying to take a little step back.. off to the cabin tomorrow so I don't know how the weekend will go.. I've been bouncing around 175-180 for the past week... meh. I don't know.

My husband,baby and I walked 3 miles tonight.I will weigh in the morning to see if I have made anymore pregress.I am fighting a cold and am tired alot by am trying my best to stay on track.

[toobig]

lisa85- YUK! Sorry you are coming down with something. Good job on getting the whole family out for a walk.

Bridgettedavis- Sorry the scale is being unkind to you. Have fun at the cabin and then come back to us!

Coolmom- I totally obsess on the scale. I know it is unhealthy. There was a time when I was fine with only weighing once a week.

stimkovs- Thanks for the continued support and encouragement. I feel you on going up and down the same five pounds. We'll get there.

tdiprincess- Welcome back! Way to go on the maintaining!

164.5 this morning for me. New low weight! And only a half pound from this months goal. I really want to be 163 before 10/20/12. That will be three years with no smokes and 100 pounds lost. I think I can do it!

Everyone try to have a good day!

[stimkovs]

bridgettedavis my best suggestion is, stick your claws out, dig your heels in- and atleast hold on for the ride- holding steady is better then gaining.

toobig anytime! i am living vicariously through you.


i ate some unmentionables yesterday. i've also decided to stop weighing for a while. i may claw through for about another week or so, and then will re-evaluate, maybe maintain for a while since nothing is happening

[tdiprincess]

Toobig: Thank you! Great job on your journey!! That is absolutely awesome! I'm sure you'll make your goal for 10/20!!
Stimkovs: I too had some ''very tasty food" last night, but not to be mentioned! LOL. Today is back to a normal day though!

Yesterday I didn't get to exercise and I ate like complete junk, completely! LOL. Today I plan to go exercise a little later on, we'll see though. This weekend we have a convention to go to, so at least there's lots of walking.
I'm eating good today. Staying relatively healthy.
Later chicas!

163.5 this morning!!!! I made my September goal! Half a pound more and I will have my goal weight!!! I can not wait to post before and after photos in the goal album.

[CoolMom75]

Congratulations Toobig!!! How exciting!

[stimkovs]

i had some not so tasty food over the last couple of days. apparently, i am a phenomenal garbage disposal for food that nobody else seems to eat in the house.

then i went out. we all know how that ended.

back in the saddle. today- i will try to finish the day on a good, healthy note, tomorrow, there will be some white knuckling, including water intake, and proper food intake.

monday, i will weigh.

[lisa85]

GOOD JOB TOOBIG!

I am feeling healthier everyday Hopefully the scale shows it too
