Good Morning!!! Get to go in to work for 5am this morning and that extra 30 minutes felt great!!!
Hello to all!!
Off to start my day by drinking the water!!!!Ok..Lauren--1/2 your weight in water???Hmmmm..must get started...The only problem is as a nurse, who has time to empty the bladder!!!

Hello everyone! I have been a lurker for sometime so I thought I would introduce myself. My name is Missy. Mom of 3 ages 8,5,3. I am currently in nursing school right now and packed on the weight for stress eating and sitting in class all day. DH and I have decided we need to change if we want to live long enough to enjoy our kids growing up and meeting grandchildren. I really need to keep motivated and so I thought this is the best way to do it because Dh doesn't get excited about talking about weight loss.
Morning! I've been out of it again. I've been reading tho. Been super busy (not as busy as you Michelle!). I'm hoping stuff slows down for me again now that all the holidays are over. I've been goo (not great) about eating. I think I told you all that I'm working on exercise now. That's the focus. I have to do it.
Michelle, congrats on the new home!! I know you are super excited! I'm a little surprised that they haven't done an ultrasound on dd yet! That sounds weird to me too.
Missy, It's good that DH is on the bandwagon...just come here to get excited about it! My DH is also on the bandwagon, but his idea is drink Slimfast for lunch and starve until dinner!
RR, I have yet to get 1/2 my weight in water in!! I read it, doesn't mean I've done it! I am aiming to get much more than usual in though.
Good morning! I'm happpy to report that my first 3 days went really well, and today has started out on a good note. My only complaint is that I'm still nursing a mild to moderate headache after almost a week.
If I get to count the coffee and tea (both decaf) I drink, I definitely make the water goal. Otherwise, I'm a little short. I'm certainly drinking a lot more than I had for a long time.
It's good that so many of your DH's are on board. Truthfully though, I'm glad I don't have one to worry about. 30 was all about fixing what was wrong my life (did that! Got a new, better job and moved closer to my hometown). 31 is about improving myself...body, mind, and spirit. Maybe 32 will be about my social life.
Off to glug, glug, glug that H2O! Hope you all have a great Wednesday.
Today's my grandpa's 100th birthday. He got a letter from the governor AND the president for being such a youngster
I've gotta make some sugarfree jello this morning. I boiled eggs yesterday for snacks, so I'll probably make some egg salad this morning for snacks today. I did good til dinner last night but I'm not beating myself up for it.
Oi how cute...i like the st patty's day goal..i was thinking of maybe a springtime challenge? for about that time....i have a show possibly that weekend and would like to be losin some more weight by then
Hey everybody!! I've been gone for a while now....been traveling, visiting with family, gaining weight, etc..... Ugh.
BUT - today is the day to get back to the basics. I went to the grocery store yesterday and stocked up on everything I need (yogurt, fruit, Lean Cuisines....).
I've missed all of you very much. My travels didn't always include internet availability - even though I had my laptop with me. Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year! It will take me DAYS to catch up on all the posts....but can you give me a run-down?
How's the new house, Michelle---and the grandbaby?
Holy ~ did you get to see DH?
ETC ETC ETC!!!
Everyone doing okay?? to all the newbies!
Fondly,
Fit

Becky, yes you can count diet/caffeine free beverages for water according to ww. But only for 2 of your 8 oz glasses.
Holy, Happy Brithday Grandpa! How cool is that?? And are you just losing is about dh coming home in 2 weeks??? Gosh I remember when he left! Seems like forever ago.
Fit, welcome back!! Glad to see you.
Well dh told me that he has a guy from Chrysler on him to hire him. DH is a mechanical engineer in the auto industry. Right now he works for an exhaust company and he's working with Chrysler on one of their cars. And at his company, he's applying for a program engineer position which includes a nice raise. Then this guy at Chrysler is on him cause they want him too. The only thing about the Chrysler thing is that it's over an hour drive and I just got him back working in Toledo. It's nice to be able to have him come home for lunch and be home fairly early. But either way, he'd get a good size raise! Cool huh?
OK the man is up and needs mom to rescue him. lol TTYL!
I've been doing very well with my fresh start and am pleased with my progress. Well within my calorie range again today (with plenty of chocolate, even!) and 45 minutes of vigorous exercise.

to everyone else too! 
I am aiming to get much more than usual in though.
after almost a week. 
Maybe 32 will be about my social life. 
Can't complain about that. It just reinforces that I was eating WAY too much before!!!!
