at this rate, if i lose just under 2 lbs a week until valentines day, i will hit 169 which is my 100lb-aversary woohooooo

today is also day 11 of the 30 day bikram challange, i've been upping my calories, even had a mcdonalds ice cream cone, and an extra 300 un accounted grams of melon last night, STILL A LOSSSS.

Jiggle: Thanks for the advice. I decided not to do anything crazy today. I'm glad I didn't. I know what you mean about not still thinking about being "morbidly obese"!

just checking in to let you all know that day two is nearly done and I've been OP. Came in a little under yesterday at 1091 so am aiming a little higher tonight. Did 35 mins on TM yesterday and 55 mins today. Doing good on water 100+ oz.

So far so good!

Tomorrow is supposed to be TOM so we'll see what happens with that. I remember last time I still lost for the first couple of months even on TOM, but who knows what will happen this time around.

Thanks so much for all the support! I'm enjoying getting to "know" you all and catch up with those I've known a while!

Came in at 1705 yesterday and I'm good with that as it's in the fat loss range. Going to shoot for a slightly lower count today, more water, and exercise. I would love to see a loss this week.

Good morning, I hope you're all having a great start to the day!

I decided since TOM is supposed to arrive, I'd take a peek at the scale this morning and I've lost 2.2 pounds so I'm happy about that.

I ended the day yesterday with 1420 cals.

I've just got to remind myself to take one day at a time and not worry about the big picture. Today I'm going to stay OP and tomorrow I will choose again to stay OP. And the next day, and the next day, and the next day!

Wishing you all a successful day!

Hey guys.

I was right at my limit of 1550 cals yesterday and 1/2 hour of weights & yoga. Tonight I have zumba and about 1350 cals "scheduled"...but might end up adding an extra healthy snack in there if I'm still hungry after class & dinner.

Jiggle: I'm not sure how not to think like a morbidly obese person all the time. Sometimes I feel and act like a "normal" person, but deep down, I can't shake the notion of the fat girl.

Stim: that's great!!

Everyone else: hope your "hump" day is productive, OP and great!

Hey everyone!!!! I can't write very much I have to go to work, but I just wanted to let you know that I've been doing well! I've already lost 10 of my 20 pound goal, so I'm assuming that is mostly water weight. But hey, I will take it! As long as the scale is dropping!! I need to work more on my exercising I have been slacking on that a little bit, but will get a session in tonight after work. Its funny just how the little amount of weight you lose can be an extreme motivator. I was so sluggish, but forced myself to stick to my calorie limit, etc and with even the (water) weight coming off it has made me so motivated to keep going. IT feels great!!

Looks like you guys are all doing well too!!!! Let's keep it up!!!

Had my first real workout at my new place. It was very refreshing. I might get myself settled into a new good routine just yet....

4 star - way to go getting back into the excercise routine. You'll see one-derland again very soon!!

Farn - that's wonderful that you've already lost 10 pounds!! Even my little 2.2 has me excited so I'll bet you're ecstatic!

Northern - I remember reading back in the Dec. challenge that you have the Zumba Wii game, do you like it? Do you have version I or II?

Matilda - you've got this. Just keep on going!

Jiggle - glad to hear you're having a couple of great OP days! I can't wait to see some updated pix of you!!

Elaine - I hope today went really well for you and you were able to sail through the day OP!

Stimkov - that's great about your big whoosh! Wow, you're so close to that 100 pound mark!!

At first I didn't think I'd do mini-goals this time around, but I remembered how much fun it was in the beginning to reach those goals have give myself a little reward! So I've decided to change my ticker to reflect my new start instead of the journey from before and gave myself some fun mini-goals to reach for! They're things that I'd probably do anyhow (except the mani/pedi) but it will be fun to "earn" them!

Jiggle Thanks so much for the advice. Would you mind giving me some examples of good complex carbs?

I was wondering if anyone here ups their calories on the days they exercise or if they keep their calories consistent on a daily basis.

Maybe I just need to go to bed as soon as I get home from my workouts to keep within my calorie limit.
