Hi ladies, I just found this thread! I am in the northern-ish VA area, not really sure if Stafford counts, but I figured it was in the vicinity so I would pop in.
I've been working on this whole weight loss thing since January of 2010 and am down almost 80 pounds. I'm using a BodyBugg to help track my calorie output (I credit that little thing with most of my success) and counting calories. I also try to make sure to incorporate some South Beach principles into my meals, but I don't always do too well with that due to lack of time. |
Hi Audri I'm in Stafford also. Jenn and I have been friends for a long time so I just figured since I know more about her area I'd call it NoVA :) I have heard about the BodyBugg. When I started in June of last year I started out counting calories and walking. I did really well, by 9/25 I had lost 30lbs and was extremely pleased. I hadn't shopped for regular size clothes in years. Although I have gained some weight do to my inability to stay on track I am still wearing some of my 12's and now some 14's. I just started South Beach yesterday and have been going through the threads to find tips, ideas, meals and whatever else I can find. I hear there's a new book, so I guess I'll have to purchase that. Nice to meet you.

July wasn't a good month. I went back and forth and just got too laxed with everything. I would do good and fall off the wagon. I even had some great accountability partners and still I messed up. For August I just want to get it together and keep it together.
~ exercise 30 minutes a day and possibly get up to doing 30 in the a.m. and 30 in the p.m. ~ cut out the snacking, find something to occupy my mind when I am thinking food ~ get enough sleep at least 7 hours a day ~ possibly see 169 on the scale by month's end |
I'm in a Labor Day Challenge and a Thanksgiving Challenge. I think I need to gracefully back out of both since I never have anything good to report (shaking my head)
