Here's my check in
I'm still not as OP as I could be. I'll be so glad to have tomorrow come & go.

nemaa - Congrats on reaching your goal

Hope everyone has a fantastic day!

Goodness, my schedule is crazy, my sleep is crazy, and my weight is going crazy. I'm just trying to get back down to where I was a week ago and then keep going from there. I haven't been checking in as much as I like, but I'm doing it right now so I can clear this one little thing from my mind. Hope everyone has a wonderful day.

I/m hanging in there. I'm doing fine in terms of eating, but not so much in terms of weight loss. I've pretty muvh stayed the same for the past week - no ups, but no downs either I've been up and down between 224.6 and 224.2. I'm eating OP, though, so it'll happen at some point. I'm considering finally starting some light aerobics again with WATPs, but I'm kind of paranoid about hurting my back again.

nemaa- congrats on making your goal. exciting!

hi all! just checking in. still haven't lost anything. like eclipse, i'm still OP so it will happen eventually. did an extra 20 minutes on my workout yesterday so i did about a 4 mile walk/jog then i came home and did 20 minutes of my biggest loser video. i'm so sore today but it's worth it.

Sorry for being MIA, but I was graced with both TOM and the flu for the last several days. It wasn't pretty. I spent most of yesterday in bed alternating between sweating and freezing. Today I feel some better, but still wish I could rest more. I'm not gonna do personals, but I did read everyone's posts and updated the list. Food hasn't been very OP, so I'm going to work on that. I barely ate yesterday but today I've been snacking on junk. I'll get back to normal soon, I'm quite sure!

I'm down 0.5 pounds this week to 133 today. I have one week left to get to 132. After next Monday, I will be on vacation until June 3rd so no more weigh ins for the month.

For some reason, I'm not that motivated despite being close to goal. I think I'm afraid of success. But I commit to staying on plan & doing my planned run. Weather is cool and cloudy, which is perfect for exercise.

I am down 2 lbs this week!! Finally started the C25k and I am currently on Wk1D3....wheww....didn't think I would get to Wk1D2!!LOL...Hope everyone is having a great week!!

Grats Nemaa, Motivated Chickie and lesmith! I am down to 208 which I was hoping would be more but I am waiting for Tom to leave already and we will truly see then. Also wont be able to come online as much as my job blocked this and many other forums from the computers :*(

Argh! I feel like it's been an eternity since I've been on. I have to say that without all my logging in and logging stuff on my sites I really don't do as well. I have had no internet for the most part lately as I had to get a different company (I did an oops and told the satellite guy he could use my cable line, so no internet after that). Then my comp was eaten, and will eventually die (my hard drive has issues now)... but hey I'm still here and it's managing again for now.

So, hi all! Hope it's been a good month! I'm hoping to pick it up and make progress this month!

my goal seems farfetched at this point, but we will see.... the dreaded TOM is here and since I haven't watched closely I'm not sure if my current weight reflects this. Time will tell.

So, in closing I am going to weigh in in the morning and let yall kow the damage.

Well, I weighed in this morning at 230. Hopefully this is TOM weight and not where I have to start again to get back on the wagon here.... wish me luck!

I am at 224.4, lost 6 lbs so far this month and still 4lbs to go to reach my goal of 10!

Good morning, ladies (and any lurking gentlemen)! I'm starting to feel a little better, though my tummy is still messing with me some, and I think this flu junk is almost out the door. I'm shooting to get back on track and have a POP day to help me heal up and get back to my "normal" schedule with food and exercise. I'm hoping I can run this afternoon, but we'll see how my tummy does until then. I also plan to play in the softball game tonight unless I regress horribly. That means I need to rest up today and get to feeling better ASAP!

motivated chickie-I hear ya loud and clear. I can easily get CLOSE to goal, but then I ease up and almost refuse to let myself get there. Why is that? SO weird! Here's to your success. I know you can do it!

lesmith-Congrats on starting the program! I'm sure you'll amaze yourself many times with what you can accomplish on that program!

Gamerlady-Sorry to hear we were blocked, but I guess it makes sense. Hope we still hear from you when time permits at home!

NightAngel-So glad to have you back!! Who knows if the weight is "real" gain or TOM or water weight, but you can start back into your healthy choices and I'm sure it'll come back down relatively quickly. Take good care and let us know how it's going!

Summer2010-Sounds like great progress! You're goal is definitely within reach, so keep doing what you're doing!

Well, after a week long stall, I woke up this morning to a one pound loss since yesterday, down to 223.2. I'm hoping it isn't a fluke number, and that tomorrow is still 223 point something. Tomorrow I have to get through an end of the year pizza party at my kids' homeschool charter. It's a potluck, though, so I'm trying to come up with something I can bring to eat and share that is OP AND doesn't involve fruits or vegetables (I live in Mexico and the charter school is in the US, and the US Customs department won't let me bring most fruits and veggies across the border!).

Check In Time
Things are still crazy & I'm not totally OP.

Tomorrow all the election stuff will be over. Thank goodness.

I'm on my way out the door to take a short walk and to enjoy a few moments of solitude

Hope everyone has a good day!
