I am approaching this differently. Instead of challenging myself to lose, I am challenging myself to think positively. I shredded the fat pictures of myself that I kept on my desk, threw away the fat pictures I keep on my fridge at home and on my bedroom mirror and instead put up pictures of me looking how I like to look. I am challenging myself to learn to eat healthy foods primarily but not to set myself up for failure by excluding a lot of things that I like.

I am challenging myself to love me enough to take the best care of me possible, to enjoy my workouts, my food, my life and my choices.

Oh yeah, my reward is a more positive more confident, more beautiful (inside out) me.

Tiki.

this morning I weighed in at 168 lbs which means I have lost 1.5lbs! :dancer:

My challenge will be getting through the weekend and maitaining this loss - it is so hard!
I have planned ahead to stay on track though :)

ok so i've lost a pound! woot woot!

but more importantly i just finished my first official job interview!!! i'm like a real grown up now! anyways. i'll have to move to wisconsin which is slightly different than tennessee but it would still be fun!

Way to go :cp: and good luck getting the job :lucky:

Congrats chicks!! :cheer: I am down 1 lb :dance: ....only three to go for April!!

M.M. :df:

I wieghed in today. I am apparently stuck on some kind of plateau. I'm going to step up my exercise to see if that helps.
