gamer: that's so hilarious.....

MsP: thanks and i hope your garage sale goes great and you make a ton of money lol!

eclipse: that is my favorite salad from mcdonalds! they're a little pricey, but worth it to me.

my mom came and got my daughter for the evening so me and the man got to spend some time together. i went and got an MP3 player. don't laugh. i'm so behind on that kind of technology but am planning to get a droid powered phone in the kind -of- near future. but i'm SO bored when i go to the park by myself and i see everyone jamming while they work out, and well i just think i needed one. and i also got a waist trimmer belt. has anyone ever tried one of those? i'm curious. my man was trying to get me to get one of those sauna suits but i just think they look so goofy. "but he says you gotta think about your goal!" i may try it soon. i'm not sure. (no offense to any of you if u use one) he seems to think they work pretty good. do they?

well, good night everyone. i've been up since 4:30a.m. so i'm ready for bed.

I got on the scale this morning. I lost .2. Better than nothing! So I wont make my goal my the 18th. I will be close. I am just wanting it over with.

I got a hot stick hair curler yesterday. I am eager to use it and see what the sexy spiral curls look like. I have wanted one of these for months. I was blessed to be able to get one. I went with DD to the Good Will store. I got 3 pair of shorts. I fit size 12 but got brave and got one pair of size 11. They fit tighter (read smothered) than I like. Gives me something to work for. This time last year I was size 1X! Everyone keep up the good work and have an OP day. Later Pat

Hey Daily Check In Time
Well, the last 2 days have been a crazy ride. Food was not good yesterday with some binging.
Today I'm going to plan my meals ahead of time and not let the insane stuff going on around me influence my eating. If I have another day like yesterday it could blow my weight loss

Hope everyone has a great day!

Hi, how are you doing? I have been eating on plan and I have been reading your post but I did not feel well to write here. I have to start to plan my trip to Argentina and honestly I do not want to go, but after almost 9 years without seeing my family I have to go. The good thing is that I have not binged in almost 2 months.
I have a question: how does TOM affect your weight?
My update
Sw: 167.4
Cw: 162.0
Gw1: 165 (done)
Gw2: 160 (2.0 to go)
WL: 5.4

[Gamerlady]

The beginning of my TOM I always gain 2 pounds. 4 days in it is gone.

[onestar]

usually TOM doesnt effect my weight loss, but this month it has. i have hit a plateau, and hopefully when TOM is over, my plateau will be over too.

[Gamerlady]

Funny how you mention TOM and I get it today :P. Maybe that is why I went from 207 to 209, if so that is awesome and I can wait to see what I weight on Monday

[aluxa]

Thanks for your answers I have been a little less than 3 months on the weight loss wagon, and I’m trying to find out how it affects me. That is why I ask you. I used to think that I lose less weight the week before it arrives but this month it is not like that.

Check In Time

Things still not so good here. Too much food & no exercise.

I'll be SO glad to have next Tuesday come & go - no matter who wins the election!

Sending out good weekend OP vibes to everyone

My first week was really bad with regards to the weight loss.. i was op and lots of exercise but .. didn loose a single pound!Gladly 2nd week till now has been amazing .. 7lbs lost ... hopefully that shud continue ..

This past week i have incorporated juices in my diet.. replacing my snacks with 2/3 glasses of fresh made juice.. and oh they r color coded lol.. red, green and orange .. the RED one consists of beetroot ( i cud never have this in my salad), carrots and tomatoes .... the GREEN consists of spinach.. parsley.. cabbage.. mint.. and other leafy greens wotever i can get.. the ORANGE one oranges , grapefruit and limes.

Omg.. just 1 week of starting to have fresh juices. i can see this amazing glow on my face

my updated weight loss goals for the rest of may are :

maintain my food diary
continue juicing
loose 3 or more pounds ( 7 lbs lost.. so that will make a total of 10 for the month)

[Emilia LaCasuela]

I went MIA again last month! Sorry! Graduating college was a little more hectic than I had originally thought it would be! Anyways, I didn't reach my 10 lb goal but I got half way there. Then... I got food poisoning so for the entire week I have had nothing but liquids and crackers > Anyways, I lost 10 lbs as a result of the craziness. I don't want to lose anymore weight this month because that is a really fast and drastic change for my body, so I plan on maintaining the weight I am at and getting my body back to a healthy and happy state

[eclipse]

So, I've only lost 2.6 lbs so far this month. It's going really slow this month.

Good Morning! Check in Time

First the Bad News:
Yesterday was another OP day - that makes 4 or 5 in a row. I'm purposely avoiding the scale this morning.

Now the Good News:
I woke up & recommitted to a healthier lifestyle. I have to find a way to live my life despite all the craziness that goes on around me. I'm going to spend time today gardening, making this week's menu and re-collecting myself. I'll weigh myself next Sunday.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day

Wooo, it's awfully quiet around here. That usually doesn't mean anything good! I for one can say that I ate so much today that my stomach hurt. Actually, I don't think it was how much I ate so much as what I ate that made me feel sick. We had our CSA member/producer potluck today and I tried lots of different things, including some fruit juice punch (I never drink that) and lots of desserts (I'll eat dessert, but very little these days), and I just felt full and cramped. It was awful. It was definitely more than I normally eat, and I totally guessed at my calories. I'm just glad it's over and I can move on. It reminded me of why I'm really happy I made this change in my life--I hate that feeling of being bloated and full, and that was a pretty common occurrence I my pre-weight-loss life. Yuk.

I've been the same weight for three days (actually up .2 today), and was looking forward to seeing a drop, but don't expect to after today! Bummer. I'm starting over for the 7 days OP challenge too. How's everyone doing, now that we're half way through the month?

[gypsychic]

Yay i've hit my goal weight for this month

SW:250
CW:240
GW fr this month : 240
