Total Weight Change for February: -1.4

ParadiseFalls - I like it a lot, but it's hard. When you decide to do it, be prepared to be sore the entire first week and part of the second. There are things that I can't do (or as the trainer says, there are things I "presently struggle with"), but the program is good about showing you modified versions and giving you options. I have been trying to embrace the program's mantra: "Do your best and forget the rest." Honestly, I love it, but it's not easy. You need to be able to dedicate about an hour and fifteen minutes every day, and if you fall off the wagon, it's **** getting back on.

Diana - Nice loss!

Bulletproof Heart - I'm sure you'll see a loss tomorrow to make up for keeping the status quo today. :)

I wasn't going to include this, but I'll just start cheating all the time if I don't have a little accountability. I had cake last night, and I didn't even look to see how many calories were in it. I didn't really like it, but I ate it anyway. Starting tomorrow (since I will be out of the fancy bread that I bought), I will be moving on to a low(er) carb diet. Let's see how that goes with calorie counting.

I am having KILLER cramps today. It's probably because I had a lot of sodium and drank in excess yesterday. BLEH. Sitting at 173 now.

I'm up .6 to 170.4. I'm also having a very bad digestive system day :(

1/31 - 231.6

I usually weight myself daily even though I only record it on Fridays. Most days I hate the scale but maybe this will change that.

Diana, Congrats!
I'm always amazed at how well you keep yourself within a tight calorie count. I can easily range between 1200-1600 and you seem to keep it pretty much around 1400 plus your coffee! You always have a great loss and I know it's not just calorie cutting alone so tell me what do you do for exercise/cardio that we don't hear about? :-)

Twinmommaplusone Hi :wave: Thank you. My workout rotation is centered around Turbo Fire. I do other workouts, too, but the main focus is TF. My daily cardio is between 30 minutes to 1 hour. If I do toning/sculpting it's closer to 30 minutes. I do better with longer cardio.

Okay. I'll play.

It's worth mentioning that I usually have one cheat meal a week - it usually falls on my WI day or the following day.

17: 296.6
18: 298.0 I haven't really eaten much in 3 days and I've gained weight. Nice.

Hello, ladies. Super busy today so just popping in.

Starbrite, CONGRATS on the 10s!!

Quantum, thanks for the info! I think I'll hold out a while and then give it a shot.

Diana, You just keep going down, it's so inspirational!

I cheated last night at a party and most likely screwed up my whole thing for the next three or four days because that's what happens with Medifast :(

Hit my Goal One day early which is my mini goal of 174! :carrot:

135lbs Gone For Ever! :cool:

Wanted to share a Picture to show how I look today- on my Way to the gym!

Awesome, I have not heard of TF, but it's so working for you!! Is it a cardio/muscle routine type exercise or just cardio! how many days a week do you cardio?
Thanks for amusing my curiousity! :D

I think I did pretty well at the buffet tonight, I drank a tonne of water during dinner went for a 15 minute brisk walk with DS and the dog when we got back, and I'm having a big big cup of tea now. I'll hope for the same number as today and if I lose anything I will be ecstatic. I wanted to try to get moving more this week and I've made some baby steps -- 22 minutes on the treadmill one night; took the stairs at work one day; and the 15 minute walk tonight, plus housecleaning today. I know it's not alot but I've been very sedentary since my surgery, so it's a start.

Diana -- TTOM is changing for me as well...I seem to waver back and forth...if one cycle is lighter the next one tends to be heavier, but in general I do find them shorter in duration than they used to be.

:carrot: Congratulations Twin Momma! :carrot: You look absolutely fantastic and should be very proud of yourself :)

@twinmommaplusone

You look amazing! :)
