It was my pleasure! happy to help out
That was a good idea changing it to week 1 and so glad you added your info!
looking forward to the first weeks exercise minutes challenge! awesome
I"ll move this over here in case anyone missed it.
Good morning Teamies!
Excellent job those of you doing the c25k! That's an excellent program to get you runners going! I've tried it several times and never get past week 4 due to my hips. I've just come to the conclusion that I've never been a runner and I will probably never be one, and I am okay with this. LOL! Maybe when I get to goal I can try again, who knows...
I fell victim to the Emotional eating last night too. *sigh* I could blame TOM showing up and thus so did my scale, but I should know better than to "give in" to that by now. O'well, it's a new day and girls, WE NEED TO GET BUSY! We don't want the Red team to beat us on the first WI do we?!!!! We have our first one coming (no later than Monday), so let's rock-n-roll! Come on!!! We can do it!!!! Plan those meals, get your exercise done, drink that water and if ya feel bad or need to vent, get your butts in this thread and do it! Typing has to burn more calories that emotional eating right? Well, we can try it. hehe!
Thanks Dixie for starting our Week 1 thread.
to everyone. Let's get this done!
{P.S.} Twilightwing: I borrowed your Blue Team sign. I hope it's okay.

Wendyland - I'm pumped for this challenge too! I haven't completed one yet (signed up for 4 - HELLO?). Lets get through the WHOLE thing together!
Diva ~ You rock. You, as a veteran to TBL, know we are gonna need a cheersquad to get through this! And we gotta start off right. Thanks for getting us in the right frame of mind.
Echo - thank you too for getting stuff going.
Ladies - I hate to predict the future.. but the red team is going down in Week 1!
While I'm certainly not "happy" to hear that others understand the trap of emotional eating, I do really appreciate the support and empathy I got last night. Thank you!
Today is a new day and I already feel better. Just checking email and 3FC really quickly, then it's off to make breakfast! Today I'm going old-school - peanut butter and banana on whole grain bread. Yum!
Hello!
So far this is going well. Today I started 30 day shred. I love that video. I also jogged 20 minutes, so I feel well. So far I'm staying OP. I don't count calories, but I try to eat only healty food. It has worked before, so we'll see how it goes this time.
Today is one of those hectic meet-yourself-coming kind of days. And, tonight, I start photography classes! I really need to go grocery shopping, but I don't think it will happen today. So, I'm being careful to not overeat on what I have here in the house. Tomorrow, I'll shop and plan and be back on my Southbeach Phase 1. I'm looking forward to it and dreading it all at the same time....looking forward to the weight loss, but dreading the flu-like feelings.

I did SB for a short while and stopped because I could not workout or move around a lot without feeling like I might pass out on phase 1....now you mention flu symptoms so I am wondering why this is? Do you think there is something unhealthy about the plan?
I am following Jillian's guide in her book for me, which is basically like SB1 but with a bit more carbs...50% protein, 20% carb, 30% fat. When I bulk up on protein I am finding I actulaly have trouble getting the carbs up to 20%!
anyway, just thought I would share since I have been really wondering about SB and thought maybe I just did not do it right.
I'll be counting my exercise minutes woooo I am so excited this challenge is finally on.

I'm all ready to go this week. Got in my exercise this morning on my exercise bike as it is raining buckets outside. I'm going to try and get in another few minutes after lunch settles down in my stomach.
Morning! I prepared my grocery list on Saturday with this challenge in mind I'm doing a self planned mix of South Beach, Sugar Busters & Atkins. The flu-like symptoms are the toxins releasing from your body. It only lasts a little while and then you start to feel really amazing.
