Hi Girls! I have been busy. My hubby left yesterday morning for Florida to help on getting the power restored. He thinks will be gone for a while so I am starting my ulitmate diet!! I'm gonna get a head start while he is gone so he will be so suprised when he gets back. I'm going to exercise 3 times a week,do my crunches every night (they help alot even if I only do 100) and go back to eating 3 meals a day and if I have to have a snack it's fruit or veggies. I glad to hear you lost 2 lbs. Gabrielle , KEEP It UP! Hi there aint misbehaving glad to have you here. Good luck with your husband and the smoking. Hope everyone is doing good and I will talk at you all later.

Sara

You didn't hit any nerve Julie. I was just offering you a different way of looking at it that might be more motivating. You're seeing the downside by focusing on how many pounds you have to lose, or how many pounds you are, in relation to kgs. Flip it around and keep telling yourself how many pounds you've LOST. Change your thoughts to the positive for better motivation. Don't worry, you'll get there.

Perfect! Much more motivating. ANOTHER 2 pounds. Keep the upbeat thoughts and you won't get discouraged, which can often lead to a setback.

Thank,s almostheaven I enjoy your positive input I,m my own worst enemy at times and put myself down alot but with short straight to the point comments like yours I know I can look at things from a healthier aspect instead of being negative which is self destructive not much else to say going to have a catch you all later bye JULIE

Smile Finally Motivated

Hi everyone, I am new to this but the more I read the more it makes me feel like I am not alone at trying to stay on track thru all life has to dish out. I have been down this road of weight loss before after having children and always regained with another pregnancy (5 in all). I am now not having any more children and want to lose this weight and do something for myself. Its nice to know that when I have a bad day I can come here and get incouragement or give some on anyone elses bad days. I started out 40 days ago at 215 and I am now 199. I would love to swap good lowfat recipes or tips with anyone interested!

HAPPY WEIGHT LOSS!!

well just wanted to see how everyone is doing since I haven't been on in a while. It isn't my "official" weigh in day yet... have 2 more days.... but I lost another lb. I am at 149. Under 150 finally. Now hopefully I will make it under 140 but that is for my next goal. right now I am just trying to make it to 145. Check back in later.
