Good luck Lori!

This weekend I've been fluctuating around 113.4. Hopefully, I can see a loss this upcoming week. I made my kids' homecoming outfits. Everything was sewn by me with the exception of the shirt. I will be making my outfit soon and headbands for my daughter and I, and a bracelet for my son.

Hey ladies! I have also been completely MIA from this thread due to general work and personal life busy-ness but I am THRILLED to announce that I am only 2.9 pounds from reaching a 10 pound loss for the month of MAY! I am hoping to hit that by the 31st but will still feel completely accomplished for the month if I do not but I'm going for it!

Plan is to stay on track, pump it up at Zumba and post here for accountability. Hope everyone is having similar success!

(((HUGS)))

Ekicna, you have a real talent with the sewing machine. Great job! I'm so jealous. I wish I could sew my own clothes. Think of the costs savings! (For example, I have about a dozen pairs of pants that are too big for me now. If I could sew, I could just take them all in!)

Well, ladies, I have been rock solid with my workouts. I've completed 25 straight days of P90X. I'm just failing at the calorie counting. The food side of this lifestyle change is a major struggle for me. I am having a hard time retraining myself to go out socially and not eat and drink like crazy. Moderation is truly my problem. I need to find something else to do at night when watching tv, sports or movies other than eating. How!!!!!!

Anyway, though, I'm down to 147.5. So, the scale is moving in the right direction! I really *could* hit 135 by my birthday (July 22nd). It will be close, but it would be AMAZING if I did it!

i've been kinda giving up during the weekend, i had to papers to write + ppt presentation and i've been up almost all night. i'm like a zombi today. but all turned out alright and now i feel stupid for ruining plan, i could've easily get trough weekend without overeating. this week is gonna be hard cause i have so much to study but i won't allow myself no more binging or overeating. but two days out of 23 isn't that bad i guess :S
now lets hop back on the wagon ladies there is only a good week til the end of the challenge so lets suck it up and work it hard!!!
good luck all!!!

Thanks Amberelise!

Good luck to everyone, keep up the good work!

I'm down 0.2 lbs after hovering at 113.4 all weekend. I hope I can make my new memorial goal of 112.9 or maybe even pass it.

I drank 3 low cal beers on saturday. I don't think they are going to leave my body! LOL

Hopefully I will sweat them out at the gym tonight.

Ekicna- Great job, i wish i could sew like that.
missunshine-I agree let's suck it up and work hard

Lori- 4th of July sounds good to me! Did you see how much weight I gained?? I'll need another challenge badly!

Still raining, i think it's this depressing weather we always have that's leading me to eat. Never can get outside to do anything, your stuck in the house all the time thinking about food. My weight is up so bad, told hubby we are not buying junk food for awhile or I might as well just give up. I'm back on track today, had 1155 calories, rode the bike vigorously for 20min. If my weight is down, I will allow myself to eat what I want on Memorial day as long as I stay below 2000 calories.

Aloha all!

So the scale stayed resolutely at 127 on my Friday weigh in. Not surprised, just coming off TOM. But I did make sure to be active. I've been in more maintenance mode for the better part of the year (I hit my 125 goal last summer), so I've just got to get myself back into weight loss mode with my "new" goal.

I'm starting back up on a more regimented exercise program again (I've been using Slim Series express since August very off and on)- going to do cardio core every other day and cardio sculpt the days I'm not doing cardio core. So, alternating. It's also the time of year for outdoor fun! Lots of mowing and yard work to do- have to get out hiking and swimming too! I really need to get my arms in shape again.

I was under cals yesterday, but felt very satisfied. I have to be careful about that though, because I do 1200 cals and when I'm under on that, I really worry about not getting what my body needs.

Fruitlady- I hear you about the rain. Thankfully, we have some peek of sunshine so far this morning! But by afternoon...dreading it!

Ekicna- Great outfits! I'm sure they'll look adorable!

Toni- Congrats! That's excellent!

Fit- You'll get there! Minor mishap, is all.

Misssunshine- You have a great, positive outlook!

Amber- that definitely sounds within your reach! Congrats on rocking the workouts!

Lori- Good luck with your tummy! You've done so wonderfully!

Well, I made my 2nd Memorial day goal of 112.9. My original goal was 114.6. I currently weigh 112.6. I am going to make my final goal 112.0. I hope I can make it.

Walked for 32min, had 1476 calories. 276 over, I was extra hungry today, so had more fruit & yogurt than I had planned. I saw a measly 2oz loss this morning, all this hard work for that!

I weighed in on Sunday and lost 1/2 a pound....My goal was 182 for memorial day...I'm not sure I will make it. I handed out my students' health card yesterday that has their BMI on it. I was horrified to realize that I have "lost" the total weight of the average kid's weight in my class....
