Morning chicas!!! I just cannot keep up with you guys anymore!!

Well, I'm down another pound, so a bit closer to my goal! i have a feeling I'm going to come within a pound or two of making it. I also won my 3rd 5 Pound Challenge today!!! woot woot!!!!! That gets me pumped as well! I didn't do 30DS last night, but I made up for it with straight cardio while I was watching the season finale of Criminal Minds! LOVE THAT SHOW! Dr. Spencer Reid is such as dream boat!!!! I'm going to start 30DS today and that will take me up to the day before I go to Chicago, so it should work out perfectly if all goes according to plan.

KDM: haha i dont think i'm going to make my goal but going to come as close as I can to it! I'm going to start 30DS over today and really focus on doing that everyday. congrats on the new decade!!!! that is awesome!! it's always exciting! You are kicking butt!!! and that NSV is huge!!!! it definitely would have helped me when i went to mexico and my suitcase broke if I could fit all of my clothes in my carry on!! haha congrats, being heavy I know what that feels like! even if you pack for only three days its seems like you have enough clothes for a week!!


jiggle: how's your daughter doing? hopefully well! i'm sure you're still enjoying the time at home! I hope! when did you finally start noticing differences with the 30DS? i'm assuming once you have done it close to a month, right?

sugarrox: so are those skinny cow ice creams good? i always crave carbs carbs carbs but every once in a while have a sweet tooth. 150 cal isn't bad! sorry about your phone. i'm sure everything will be alright, it's just gotta be that anticipation that is killing ya!! 13 lbs is a lot since the 28th! congrats!!! CC does really help doesn't it? that's what i discovered shortly after I started doing it. at first it seems like a hassle, but totally worth it.

shylah: hahaha I laughed sooo hard with that belly flat comment, omg i relate!!!! it sucks!!! that's the first thing I thought of when I did the 30DS the first time. I was like you. have. got. to. be. kidding. me. A whole 30 days of this?! Here's to hoping it gets better for the both of us!!

lori: haha yeah facebook is so addicting, I'm a junkie definitely. and it's so easy to be sooo snoopy on there too!! it's bad!! but i love it!

corinne: long walk in 90 degree weather? oh my god no thanks!! you've got motivation!!! i have a pool and I can't wait until that is up so I can exercise outside when it's hot like that. I give ya props for getting out there and doing that when most people are vegged up inside!

jdon: no not the wine!!!! haha jk jk that would be the hardest part, i love my wine!! I haven't had it for a while however. It would be bad if it was in the house! but that is very smart of you just to throw it out, i agree wasting is bad, but it's worth it in this case. you have come too far to destroy what you've done now! definitely water weight. you've already lost 1.8! sweet!!! that's great!! how's the job search coming? would you ever move out of state for a job? im sorry to hear about you and the bf fighting. that's terrible that he says the things he does to you. i'm sure it's just sarcasm, a sharp tongue. my ex bf used to be like that, but it got so bad that i didn't want to put up with it anymore. this just seems like he feels you are hurting him for some reason and that's his way of hurting you back i guess. immature, yes! hopefully you get everything figured out and sometimes a little wknd away can do wonders!

susie: sorry to hear about your son! hope he feels well soon! everybody's getting sick!! haha. congrats on that medium! that's amazing! i cannot wait until i am able to put on a Medium! that must feel so great! so you think that it's impossible to lose weight doing 30DS? i was thinking the same thing. I really enjoy 30DS but since I still have sooo much weight to lose should I just stick with cardio until I get lower in my weight and then start toning? I don't want to get slim and end up looking like the Hulk! haha. i'm totally jealous about your cruise!! i'm just going to chicago and i'm excited about that! a cruise, now that's going to be amazing!! and you'll be rocking your new dress!!!

shan: don't worry about your little ups and downs. I have been having that for the past two weeks it seems!! Just a fluke I'm thinking. As long as you stick with it you will lose!!

well i'm pretty sure i wrote a novel, but i'm just trying to keep up with you ladies!! i'm at work now and we just got a bunch of boxes in so I better get started. home at 5:30 and then 1 hour cardio and then 30DS all over again later tonight!

have a good day!

I LOVE Skinny Cow Ice Cream. I have had the sandwiches and truffle ice cream bars. I can't remember how many cals the sandwiches are, but the truffle bars are 100 cals! I have tried White Mint and Caramel. The mint tastes like an Andes mint. yuuuuum!

Hey Ladies I'm sure everyone is excited about this challenge or at least it sounds like it. I will be looking forward to the next one.

I've been doing pretty good today. Still home with my daughter but she is doing well today. She could go to daycare tomorrow but I will wait until Tuesday like I planned. Anywho I was out shopping and found this dress. I really like it, what do you all think?

As you can see one side has a lump still and the other one is smoothing out. I love progress!!!

Hey guys...

Been offline for a few days...super busy at work and just tired in general. Looking forward to the 3 day weekend with the girls!

Haven't kept up with all your posts, but it sounds like everyone is making a strong push to the end and looking forward to the next challenge!

I've had a pretty good week so far. Staying OP with my calories, but eating too much junky stuff in the evenings instead of healthier choices. Missed my workout yesterday, but will do another one Saturday morning before I head out for the weekend to make up for it.

WI day tomorrow, hoping it's decent!

.2 to go, woo hoo! Let's all make these last days count.

Can't wait for the 4th challenge! I'll really push myself for that.

Jiggle- you look fantastic! Beautiful dress.


I've got to be up and off to work, but I just wanted to stop by and say good morning. Hopefully everyone will be on plan and kicking butt! Good luck!

Just finished shredding and feeling real good. I was trying to get it done before my daughter woke up but didn't happen and of course she wanted to participate. I didn't get all my water or shred in yesterday. So today I'm on a mission!! Well a couple more days ladies and I'm giving it all I have til the end. I'm going to get some cardio in this afternoon.

Farn - I started seeing results the first week I started. I was a size 24 so the inches were falling off. I think that's where my loyalty to 30DS comes from. I was loosing an inch a week in my hips, waist and stomach. Now it down to about a 1/4 to 1/2 inch in those same areas. I have to work harder to loose inches.
Sugar - Hopefully hubby has arrived and you are enjoying him!!
KDM - For sure it's a body lump!! I wish it was just the dress. But Thankfully it's smaller than it used to be!!
Shylah - I love the skinny cow too but I had to stop eating it because I was eating it everyday and it would slow me down on my workouts.
Fruit - I'm so proud of you for behaving. Keep going you will get those two pounds off in no time.

EVERYONE - Thanks for the compliments on the dress. I'm going to go get it today. I was excited because it's a size 16 and it looked that good without a girdle!!!

Speaking of girdles...i had bought a vest type girdle about a year after I had my daughter. I was a size 22 by then but I kept gaining weight and it got too little. I tried it on yesterday and it's too big now!!!

One question for those of you that had back fat to loose...What size did you get to before they become humps and then went flat?? It seems like these things are moving slower than my stomach. I know they are coming down because my shirts from last summer fit that were too small or the ones that fit are too big. I have to stay focused on the progress I'm making...no matter how big or small.

Morning

I shamelessly poke my head in and say "Howdy". Lots of things going on lately and i have managed to GAIN weight. But i will be back on track by the time the next challenge rolls around.

Jiggle-I ADORE that dress, makes me want to go out and find me a cutesy summer dress!

Lori-LOVE your new avatar...you keep me inspired girl!

KDM-Your doing better than me with the self sabatoge..i just gave up completely for about 5days straight, ACK!Im sure you will come back strong. No more excuses for me. I felt like crap the entire time i was off my plan so i know what to do to feel better. I loved your dress by the way..so cute, the sandals didn't look bad at all with it!

Hello to EVERYONE i missed. Looking forward to chatting with you all in the next challenge! (and doing happy dances while we keep getting skinny )
