Unbelievably, I am down again today. I basically had a veggies fast all day and drank tons of water. I then proceeded to have a very yummy (very high calorie) dinner with my husband with no guilt whatsoever! And, I am down again today.

Down a bit today. Looks like I am off to a good start. I think it has to do with the fact that worked out for the first time in about 3 weeks. Well, off to take my pooch for a walk.

WAY TO GO FAUX!!!!

This has not been a good week for me, because I've been job hunting and the weather's been crazy and I had final exams, so I went up, but I'm happy to still be in the 180s, and I'm trying not to be too discouraged.

Everyone else seems to be doing well as well. I bet Faux is losing a lot hiking, camping, etc.

Hi everyone! I know im kind of late joining but Im new to this site and looking to put this weight loss in full throttle. Looks like everyone is doing pretty good. :)

Anyone have any good motivational tips? I have such a motivation problem, lol.

HEY HEATHER :welcome3:

just update as often as you want!!!

Don't forget this is a 5 lb challenge...LOL

Good luck! You'll win one soon I bet!

My motivational tip is music and an mp3 player if you don't have one
I can just hear certin songs/music and I want to get up and move!

HI Melissa!

I forgot to change my goal weight for this challenge, but I corrected it.
I hope I win sometime :) that would be cool.

I'm still at whatever the heck number I was when we started this dang thing. Plateau, plateau. Still working out, still eating smartly. Blah blah. Bluch.

Kofarq......OMG you just made me laugh...thank you! I know that not losing weight or being stuck isn't funny but the way you worded your post was really funny to me!

I have hit soooo many plateaus and I have always pulled through and I know you will too...keep working and it WILL pay off...don't give up!

It's OK if you don't win too. (This coming from someone who is on her NINETEENTH 5 lb challenge and has yet to win one.) :lol: Seriously though, they are great motivation. And a great group of people! :D Welcome!

JKS - you look really good....and healthy at 152 also!!! Have you tried lowering your calories anymore? Or challenging yourself a bit more on the work outs or both.

Jessicaca - You are right you have hit many plateaus and pushed right on through never giving up....I wish I had your attitude! :D

Kerri - the wedding dress fits and in 2 weeks your gonna marry the man of your dreams and be swept away on your honeymoon! Screw the plateau! LOL!!! You'll kick that plateau's butt when you get back from the honeymoon if you don't do it before then :kickbutt:

Heather - If you stick to your workouts and your plan for eating (the prepared meals and stick to your calories) you will drop 5 lbs FAST!!! I always lose weight fast in the beginning of a diet....water weight I'm sure...but it all counts...LOL :goodluck:

I'm hoping the scale will be good to me tomorrow :goodscale if I decide to weigh in! Today was my first true day back on plan!!! :D

just keep swimming: hey--is that a new pic? Updated? Cool! I've tried b4 to post a pic but it was too far away to see. I'll try another one soon.

Kofarq: Is it because you are so close to your goal? Although I've hit plateaus at various times and just stuck with it and eventually started down again. But it helps to really be overweight and to really have room for improvement in the eating/exercise areas. Once I'd step up the frequency or pace, or cut out another unhealthy food, I'd start losing again.

Heather: Welcome! My best tip is this 3FC site--there is just so many posts and so many threads and challenges here, there, left and right, and tons of dedicated people who really will talk to you, encourage you, inspire you. Keep reading, as I do. I think I'm addicted to this site! ;) I've got to check in at least a couple of times a day just to keep up with the new posts, hear how people are doing, etc.

Modcat - I second that.....I think I'm addicted too! It has really helped me though!

You can really tell the girls who are dedicated to this cause and come here day in and day out to give their support to those who are struggling and get support when they are struggling! I feel really close to several people on here! LOL...I guess its cause you can't help through in a few personal things caues they affect your food/exercise/weightloss efforts as well!!!

:hug: hugs for everyone!!

Thanks, Melissa and Modcat! Yup, that's a picture of me taken today.

Melissa, I definitely need to step it up, diet and exercise-wise. I've gotten pretty complacent, mainly because I don't dislike the way I look anymore. Which is certainly not a bad thing, but I really want to keep getting in better shape, because I know that I can, and I will feel great when I meet my goal! :D

Just keep swimming-Thanks! This site if full of all kinds of motivation. Its really inspiring. I actuallly have been doing really good since I started this site.

Modcat-I know there is soooo much stuff on this site. Ive been confusing myself trying to figure out what I have posted where. LOL I can see it getting very addictive.

Melissa-Im trying , I like that we get to talk alot about all this stuff, it keeps me thinking about it. Im glad you got yourself back on track. Good luck with that scale tommorow.
