Delphi~ Thanks for the info on the nano. I'm going to have to look into it. My elliptical is by Ironman and it's big and fully loaded with the arm pulley things on it too. Features: Heart rate, allows you to program different users stats, weighs you, can change resistance/intervals, can select different modes by time/distance/or program and of course the fan. It was around $750/800 but was a gift. I really need to get the book out and figure out how to change the setting. The resistance is hard. If I go to the gym I can be on the ellip for an hour no problem. It is a struggle to use this one for even 20 minutes. (feel the burn) Even when I was running 3+ miles at a time I struggled on this machine. But it feels so good when I'm done which is why I haven't looked too hard for the owner's manual.

Lene ~ I can almost bet you can go to the website and they will either have FAQ's or a PDF of the operating manual you can download, if you want quick access to what you want to do.

Lene, looks good, and you've started green tea too? Woohoo!
Delphi, aw, that's sweet! It's no big deal though. You just work with what you're given!

Jacqui: I am taking a page from your book and doing the 2 window thing just to get caught up with everyone! You are so right on the thread getting too long for me to catch up on the weekends. I had the same issue every Monday!!
FSA: The nutrisystem is working great for me. I was really bad when it came to making food choices and I needed something with structure to guide me with what to eat when (especially keeping all those fruits and vegetable servings up). The food is nothing fancy, but I can live with it as long as it helps me lose the weight .
Canadianangel: Glad to see you back, keep us posting on those size 14's!
Lene: Thanks for the tip. I will start journaling on the weekend, I am sure I will think twice about what I put in my mouth if I have to write it down. Now I just have to carry a notebook with me all the time so I have no excuses.
Great goals for you BTW!
Gatorgirl: How did the exam go?
glutio: I hear you on the weekend stuff. I find that a lot of the gain is just water weight and I can get rid of it in a few days if I am good with my water.
kswood: Seems like you enjoyed what you ate, and you are taking it all in stride. Good for you! Now it's time to keep moving forward.
mtphotochick: Sounds like you did great, Good Job!
Delphi: You actually did the carpet yourself? I'd be too scared to get it all crooked LOL. I hear you on the grocery cart. Now I am actually proud of it!
abielle, couch, bahecasmart,
RubyJan: Welcome too! You can totally do this chickie. You can count on all of us for support . Here are the instructions for you to update your tracker.
AtlGirl: Sounds like you had fun playing tennis, I tried it once but I have no hand-eye coordination so my DH gave up on me haha.
susiemartin: Do you do a particular belly dancing workout? I have been curious about it for ages.
CMo4: You know what? Now everytime I pour myself a new glass of water I think of you!. Woohoo on the panties!
Now you can be sexy all over
Blondie: Sorry about your scale, maybe it's just the battery?
dollypie: That's right.. All the soreness is worth it, and it does get better too
I actually was POP yesterday! and it seems like the scale is finally starting to move in the right direction again. Now I really have to buckle down and keep the loss going until next Monday!!
I have to go do stuff but I will catch up with you all later today...I can't wait a whole day to check in or there'll be like 1000 new posts!

Delphi, if they have Celestial Seasonings green tea with honey lemon gingseng, get it. I really like the flavor and Celestial Seasonings is supposed to have the most anti-oxidants. Don't go decaf. That process strips the anti-oxidants. I usually love Twinings hot teas, but oh, I do NOT like their green tea. And same goes for Lipton, ew. Too grassy tasting for me. If your store does not have Celestial Seasonings with lemon, and you do get one with a grassy taste, just add a few drops of lemon juice. That will take it right out. C'mon girl, you're a tea drinker! Hot's not that different. It's very soothing! You can do it! Lol! Green tea is very healthy, and an appetite suppressant, not that you need one!!
NSM, we just might hit 1000 posts this month at this rate! Wouldn't that be awesome?! OMGosh, I LOL'ed when you told CMof4 "Woohoo on the panties!" LOL!! IDK, there's something about that phrase that just cracks me up!! Woohoo on the panties! LOL!!

Hey all, I hope it is not too late to jump in. As of this morning I am at 290.6, I've been going down like .2 everyday and it is driving me a little nuts, I want out of the 290s already! Anyway, my goal for the month is also 10.7 lbs so I can say hello and goodbye to the 280s during the month of June.

Well I have been doing great diet and exercise so far. But my Sensewear has stopped charging so I can't check my calorie deficit! It is amazing how much I rely on that thing to track my progress. Hopefully a new one will come in the mail soon!
Congrats to everyone on a great start to June. I love reading about everyones journey so keep the posts going!

At your encouragement, my June 1 weigh in was 284 at home. It was 282 this morning. I think I'm really just constipated (eep!) from the weekend, I can feel the need to go but I'm having trouble getting there. I just don't want to move my ticker up! I fully expect to be at 280 by the time I "recover" though. I guess we'll just have to see what happens and focus on the exercise that I can control!!

Gekster! No, it won't be too late until July, lol! Glad you joined us! I've added you to the list! Good luck!
Delphi, oh yes, that definitely has to be a catch phrase for something good! BTW, about your 2 lb loss--Woohoo on the panties!
Nello, great job on staying OP! I hope your battery comes very soon!
Yep, Glutio, happens to the best of us!
