Hi All,

Well I went with the hill....but....it was tooooooo cold. So, I came back inside...and that was the end of my exercise..I had a awesome dinner, and ate it really slow. I know it was probably a little on the fattening side. We had steak, mash potatoes, salad, and Brussels sprouts .... it was delish... Anyhow that was new years dinner to kick off a tasty meal.. :)

I am at work right now and it is like a ghost town in here because everyone is at home I am sure. After work I am going to the store to pick up the foods I will need for the week. Yes they are going to be healthy foods. My biggest challenge is that I love SODA .... and I need to drink more water...so I will be coming on here to get all the help I need in that area...hehehe .....

I will log on a little later to see how everyone is doing....

Bye for now
Cheer~

Ok ladies! I posted an exercise challenge thread too, so lets just keep up the great work ladies...we have Hattie to thank for the name of it...she is such a sugar :D
I will be back in a little while for personals :wave:

Hey everyone!

Christian~The exercise challenge sounds like a good idea. I'll go check it out after this.

Lene~I am so, so very sorry to hear about your grandmother. :hug: Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you :angel: now and we look forward to having you back with us soon.

Sass~Sorry to hear about the BP. I hope that the medicine gets you straightened out right away. They didn't restrict your exercise did they? That would kill me.

I survived my party and I guess ate on plan since I hardly ate anything all day as was to busy running around for everyone else. So far today, I am eating all leftovers-which are not good for me-but maybe it will all work out even in the end. :D I totally forgot to weigh myself this morning because I forgot it was Friday. Maybe I'll jump on with Christie and do it on the 3rd. We plan to go skiing tomorrow so that will be my exercise. Today I am having back spasms so I am taking it easy.

Everyone sounds like they are really :carrot: and motivated for the New Year and for Valentine's Day so :twirly: for us!!!

I joined the exercise challenge ... I think it will be a great way to track as to where we are, and where we need to be everyday... :) Keep our routines up and never look back. If you slip up, it only means we are human and we keep moving forward..:grouphug:

Cheers~

Good morning everyone. We got through yesterday. My husband was so supportive and comforting. Thank you for all of the condolences.

urock~have a great day skiing< I hope your back is feeling better

Jaya~good luck with not drinking the soda and getting more water in, water is hard for me too

Christie~ I love the exercise challenge! I think it's a great idea to keep us motivated and shake it up a little. You and I are at the same starting point and I would love for both of us to hit our goal. We can do this! :hug:

Ms. perception~ hi girlfriend, looking forward to seeing your posts when life settles down for you

Hattie~Your enthusiasm for exercise is contagious. I'm so pumped and excited to lose weight again. I had really become complacent with where I was at before and when I stopped the exercise my body started going right down hill again. I'm going to try and keep up with you lady. :D

Sass~ poor sass, I'm sorry about your migraine and bp. Please take care of yourself. :hug:

Fullsteam~ Hi Lady and Happy new year to you! Good luck with your resolutions. I think you should invest in thermal socks and underwear so you won't freeze while on the computer. We need you to much to have the cold keep you away.

Bikini~ sounds like you are moving in the right direction. Good luck!

Back at it~ eating right is 1/2 the battle

Niki~ doing the Race for the Cure in March will keep you on track. I did a Lupus run for my Mom last year and knowing I had to train for it really kept me focused.

I lost 3lbs this week and did a pretty decent job with drinking my water. I'm looking forward to next week and another loss.

Well I only lost a pound this week, BUT I am happy with that as I have just been watching what I eat and have not done my 6 week body makeover plan, I am also exercising more, so I should see more losses to come ;)

I am off to hit the exercise thread and report in, I am glad to see everyone like it, I think it is just what we needed to keep on track...have a great day everyone :wave:

So this morning my weight was up a little because I had a late dinner last night. It was healthy and delicious (salmon, salad and lentils) so that's why I'm not too concerned about the scale weight. I weigh on Saturdays and Wednesdays so I'll just be good till Wednesday just in case (still need to make up for that beer and ice cream).

I too joined the exercise thread, that will be very helpful for me, thanks!

Hope everyone has a great day!

WEll I got on the scale today and I'm down 5.2lbs:carrot::carrot:

SBD~ I know Billy does. I'm a weird person I LOVE IT :lol:

Christian~ Great job on losing 1lb

Melissa- I too ate late last night so I am hoping that next week will be better...way to go on eating so healthy...you rock !

Ally- :woohoo: You go!!!! That is AWSOME!! You are already half way there!!

Hi

I feel good today, and I just got done working out for 30 minutes, and now I am deciding of what I am going to eat for lunch that is healthy. I will be back later.... bye for now ~

Jaya- You go girl...healthy eating is what it will take to make every minute of that exercise count :hug:

Hi All!! Hope you are having a great weekend. Today my sister and I went shopping and then we went to eat at Oliva Garden. I had the 5 cheese ziti with whole wheat pasta. I only ate half, and only ate 1 breadstick (my weakness) I brought the other half home and another breadstick and had that for supper. I also did 1 hr on the wii fit.

It has been a week since I started exercising and I can tell a diference already. I am sleeping better at night and I actually am making myself exercise. If I want to watch tv I just walk in place for the free run on the fit, or do free step. I will weigh in tomorrow morning, hopefully with a good loss

Niki

Hi,
Another newbie here, but would love to join the challenge. I would like to loose 12 lbs. by valentines day. I will weigh in at work monday and post it then. We have a 6 week challenge starting, so I'm going to take advantage of support wherever I can get it. You all seem so helpful here on this thread.
Thanks,
Linda

Bikini Ready - Samon is my favorite.... :) dont be down on yourself you are only human and
you can just make up for it during the week.

keeperofthehome4 - That is awesome that you are down 5.2 pounds...keep up the great work!!

Christian - thank you for the support yes it is going to be hard, because I have given up
fast food. I didnt realize how much I even ate it...until we went out today to go to the store,
and what we used to do was stop and get something from the drive through. This time we
(my daughter skipped the drive through) and went to target. When we came home we made
veggie soup and toast for dinner, on very healthy bread I might add... hehehe

Neast - that is awesome that you can tell a difference...that is the best part....great job~

HealthyandVibrant - :welcome2: everyone here has been so awesome and supportive... :)


Ok I am going to shower all with :dust: hehehe...

Bye for now ...

Hey 3FC Sisters. Am I too late to join the challenge? If not, someone tell me what I need to do to get going. Thx in advance.
