OH & fruitlady ~U will get back on track u always do ~HUGS!

hi e1 just posting in to say all is well. I did some figureing tonight and if I make a goal to lose 5 lbs a week for 18 months I will reach my goal of 150. Hope e1 fills better tomorrow. gn :wave:

Hey ladies, only 1 day without posting and I already feel a little lost!

Keeping on track in preparation for my birthday, which I know will be a cheat day. Still no loss, which is annoying but I can't do much at the moment. Have been keeping up the exercise and tracking all my calories.

About to make myself a chicken/zucchini/mushroom/tomato dish for dinner, home alone tonight!

Bought myself a new bra today, finally, shocked at the size of it. RIDICULOUS!

I can relate, i have not been myself for over a week now:( My calories have been at least 300-500 over everyday...ARG.....ARG I say(ar, like a pirate :lol: ).

I just want to kick my own butt right now. Im so emotional for some reason...i think once i started giving in, it got harder to get back on track. I will bounce back...i always do but its frustrating to see the stall in my weight loss. Scale up 4lbs today, pretty sure its bloat! Im not a happy camper. TOM around the corner so hopefully its not all due to my eating.:(

ok, time to pick myself up from off the floor and MARCH LIKE A SOLDIER!

Some personals...sorry if i missed anyone

Northeren-Hope your feeling better today!

Jiggle-Hope your feeling better today

bigmama-5lbs a week is a pretty aggressive weight loss. hope everything works out for ya!

Rainbowstripe -Ridiculous in a good way or bad way? Your Supper sounded delish! Im sure your weight loss will come..if nothing happens soon maybe try increasing/decreasing your cals or including strength training (sorry if you already do it, ifso, go heavier) add more intensity to your workout routine. Those are some things that helped with my plateaus (sorry if I over stepped on the advice)

Lori-How are you feeling? I can totally understand not being able to afford new clothes. We live on one income and its so hard to budget bills,food,house supplies & clothes on that. ARG (like a pirate :lol: ) I think i have the pirate theme going on today?

(more pirate talk, sorry off my rocker today :dizzy: ) "off t' get me walk done then me full body weight liftin in. will talk t' all you lasss later."

I did my official weigh in yesterday and didn't get a chance to pass. I am down... .4 lbs per usual. I know I could be doing more to make it go down faster but I'm just happy its going down and not up! :) But I don't think I'm gonna hit 199 by Columbus day.
Congrats to everyone on their losses! woohoo!

Checking in because I haven't done so in a while! Unfortunately, I've stopped doing 30DS because level 1 got too boring but I wasn't flexible enough for level 2 yet. I've started going to the gym again though! I do 30 minutes of cardio and then a full body strength workout. I'm aiming for 3-4 times a week. My weight is creeping down. I weighed in at 165.0 this morning. I still have 5.1 lbs to go to reach my goal weight of 159.9 for this challenge.

misspriss- don't be too hard on yourself, I was over my limit by 1000 cal. or more for two days, it's so hard to just stop now. We will bounce back!!

I gained 2.8 lbs. so far, this is the third day I have been craving chocolate & peanut butter. I wanted it first thing this morning, so I had 1/2 serving of Fat Free French Chocolate ice cream & 1 tsp. of natural peanut butter before I had breakfast. It made my breakfast 80 calories more, but at least I am satisfied, cravings went away!

I've been doing similar things. My dh brought home some fruity pebbles and they smelled so good and i thought "why not have a bowl as long as i counted the calories" and i did, it got rid of the craving. I always consider processed food a #1 enemy but if eating a little bit gets rid of those nasty cravings then so be it.

Hello to everyone. just a quick check in. 2mile powerwalk this morning followed by a Full Body weight lifting workout. I was able to do 15 pushups on my toes...that progress:carrot:

Hi Guys! Hope you are all doing well. I have not been posting much b/c I have been so busy with work. I am down 16 pounds since the end of July. I am having a hard time fitting in exercise and can only manage 1 or 2 days a week. I am nearing in on 200 and hope to be in onederland by the end of October.

MissPriss Thank you for the advice, not overstepping at all! The bra size was ridiculous just in a weird way... I got measured and told I was an E cup. My boobs do not look like that at all haha, I've been wearing Cs and Ds. You're probably right about the strength training, I haven't been doing any because I was waiting til I lost a bit more weight and felt more comfortable, but I guess it's just excuses - I also don't know how to do it at home.


In good news - my weight has finally dropped! Overnight no less. Feels good to know I wasn't completely stuck.

Cheat day tomorrow as it's my birthday, but I'm still going to try to stick to healthier choices when we go out for meals and limit my alcohol intake at my party tomorrow night.

My boyfriend is attempting to make a 3D Totoro cake today...I am scared for him, he's never made a cake before in his life, let alone a 3D frosted character!

LMAO, now your the pissy pants pirate :lol: hehehe. ARG, Now off to shimber me timbers (whatever that means) and get me wee little ones off to the bunkers (put the kids to bed) me will return when me eye pops open in the morns...

later gators:hug:

Love-so glad to see you..your doing FABULOUS! Welcome back girl!!!

Rainbow-Happy Birthday to you! Have a fantastic day and I always say that b-days or treat days :lol: good luck to your bf on the cake. Yay on the weight loss

Saggz-Wow with your weightloss...Way to go!!! That is some progress!

ok...kids are waiting. Hello to everyone. Have a great night!

Wow, lots of chatter since yesterday! Sorry, no time for personals (the Nyquil is starting to kick in and I. don't. think. I. can. keep. typing. much. longer...lol!)

I do have to say I love the pirate attitude out of misspriss, lol! You should keep rockin' it for Halloween!

I am feeling a bit better today, which is good because we're scheduled to take our last camping trip of the season this weekend! So far the weather and fall colors have been beautiful. Need to take advantage of it before it gets too cold. I hate winterizing the camper for the season...such a sad day!

Official WI tomorrow morning...wish me luck!
