Congratulations to Soon2BeFitChick for being our BL this week, awesome job :cp:
Congratulations to Spryng, Matilda, and Sandll as well :cheer3:

I didn't have the greatest week as I was away from home, and didn't make the best choices. I'm up one pound so I am going to work extra hard this week to get rid of it, and hopefully more as well!

Jacky, I think it's great about the Purple team. Gives me more motivation to get back on track. Thanks for all your hard work :)

Dream, have a wonderful vacation. Hope you get lots of :sunny:

Transporter, sorry that you missed the weigh-in. I've been confused about AST as well. I hope you'll still stay on with us.

River & Dream, that's awesome that you are both going to be :running: a 1/2 marathon. :bravo:

Have a wonderful Monday everyone!

Congrats to the BLs this week!
Sorry I haven't been around. My personal life is a little crazy right now. Legal stuff concerning my baby son and to top it off the ex wants to reconcile yet still take me for joint custody! Life is just getting hectic...

Hi just stopping by to say goodnight. I had a crazy day at work, had to stay late then got home ate exercised now in bed at 9:15pm so tired. I'll be back tomorrow to post.

Hi Everyone, looking forward to another good losing week! I love the idea of the purple team and then back to weigh in in May! Thanks!!

So I am going back to calorie counting as weight watchers makes me feel guilty about some of my food choices. I feel if I have the calories I shouldn't need to feel guilty. Just realize that next time making smarter choices or indulge when able to. I missed up on not researching food choices prior to eating. one small serving of caesar dressing at quixno's = 320 calories! Now I had the calories just not the points...see my issue?

:wave: everyone
Day 2 of being back on track and I feel really good. Now I just have to learn how not to give up when I am sick or injured.

Page, I found the same thing when I tried WW, (at home), years ago. I find counting calories works best for me. I know WW works for many people though.

Jacky, good for you for still doing your exercise after working late. That's dedication :cheer3:

Congratulations Selina - sorry you had to be sick to be our BL, hopefully you're on the mend.

Congrats too to Spryng, Matilda, and Sandll.

I've never won BL, but I am so happy to have almost finished the challenge and to have lost 20 lbs, whoot.

Well, keep up the good work and wish me luck - tomorrow is my MIL birthday celebration at an excellent Mexican restaurant that has killer Margaritas, plus I've made her favorite cake - a bundt rum cake. I have faith in me, but can't pretend it won't be hard.

Well I missed the weigh-in. I forgot to post earlier in the morning and I was at my sister's 30th B-day party that evening. I just have to make sure I don't forget again. I was up a couple of pounds anyway.

I just started P90X a week ago, so I know that I am retaining water because of it. I know that that I will shed the water weight once my muscles become more accustomed to the weight lifting. It just may take a couple of weeks!

P90X is hard but fun. Most of my friends think I am nutty, because I get up at 4am to do my workouts. For me that is the best time, the kids are sleeping and there is nothing else to do! I get up, get it done and I am happy and full of energy the rest of the day!

Hi crazy few days so haven't been on much. I'm really tired and lazy tonight after work so I really need to try to get my workout done.
The weather has been nicer here but now they are calling for another 10-15cm of snow for Sat. I'm done with this......Spring please.
I'll come back and post when I do my workout:)

Just stopping in to say hi! Hope everyone is having an awesome week =D

Morning didn't stop by after my workout but I did do it:) 40 min on the elliptical.
I hope everyone's day is going good so far. I work up to a few snow flurries and now they have changed Saturdays forecast to 15-20cm of snow:(. We are supposed to be having an open house then too. Who wants to go out in that.....not me but I'll have to:)
Well off to get a cup of coffee

Dora - how did you make out at the party?

Thanks for asking Jacky - I did well, had a grilled chicken salad, no drinks (except Iced tea) had a vita top instead of cake. The only thing I did "wrong" was I didn't exercise, but we didn't get home until after 1 am.

Looks like one more pound for me this week, always wish it was more.

Hope all are doing well, its winding down, but I'm not giving up, hope you all are still motivated too.

Hi everyone :)
Well it looks like I put on more than just one pound while I was away. For the past 2 days I have been up an additional 2 lbs. I'm working hard to get rid of them though. Has anyone read, The Body Fat Solution by Tom Venuto? I bought it awhile ago but I just started reading it. So far I like what he has to say.

Dora, good for you for making healthy choices at the Mexican restaurant :cheer3:

Jacky, yikes that is a lot of snow for this time of year! Hopefully, the Spring weather will arrive soon.

Gvntofly, wow 4:00 am! That is dedication, good for you :cp:

Have a great night everyone :wave:

Thank you Dora. I am a little better. I have moments. LOL. Lost another 1.6 lbs so far this wk. Gonna stop losing soon tho, maybe 5 more lbs off.

And thanks to everyone who said congrats about being tbl this wk. Yeah, what a way to win it, eh? LOL. :faint:

Congrats to all the other winners too! Have a great weekend if I'm not back til then. They may wanna move our new baby here midwk next wk. Yay! He is a month old. :)

Hugssss, Selina :hug:

It's tough but once I start the warm up I am wide awake! I feel great all day and I am sleeping much better at night now!
