Hi Ladies:
How is your week going? I am back on track and feeling pretty good.
The manager is picking three people from our center for a commerical, and she keeps mentioning it to me, I am not sure I would want to do it, I feel a little embarrassed.
I am going to do 2 day take-off I want to get out of the 140's.
Hey Marcie we haven't heard from you, How are you doing?
I added a little bit of running when I use the treadmill it seems to get my heart rate up a bit.
Here is a quote I read on another forum:
What you eat in private, shows in public, this one bothered me because when I cheat I usually do it by myself.

How true that quote is.
I am having trouble staying on program.
I just can't get it into my head that
I have to do this, especially for my health.
I know I am not the only one with this problem.
I just need to get out of this slump.
I am getting a new panel on my treadmill today.
Just got the thing a couple weeks ago and the something was wrong with the console.
It weighed a ton to get it in the house and it folds up. My husband took it out of the box and did not wait for me to help hold it.
Well the track fell and put a 3 inch hole in the wall. Guess maybe he will listen to me now.
Anyway thought a treadmill and videos will boost my weightloss and give me more energy.
Have a good week everyone.
I have a convention to go to this weekend. Hope the food is not too bad. I sell Creative Memories.

Sharon:
Isn't it funny when ever we go to do something our first thought is I hope the food is O.K. Sometimes I do not want to go anywhere because I do not have control over the food. I have a birthday party this weekend for my niece and I do not want to go, because I usually weigh in on Mondays.
Good luck with the treadmill I enjoy mine. When ever I get in a slump I have to push myself out of it and just keep at it every day and it sounds like that is what you are trying to do .
Have a productive weekend
Diane

I lost a pound today! I'm really jazzed!

You know, I read a really motivational quote from (of all people) Susan Powter. Remember her? The infomercial chick with the platinum blonde crewcut?

She said:

"You have to get up each morning and work the practice of being a fit human being."

It's so true. We've all been on the roller coaster, I'm sure, of gaining/losing/gaining. Or maybe we've started a program only to quit quickly when the pounds don't come off fast enough.

But I really believe that if we picture in our minds what it will be like to be fit and healthy, then it will become much easier to stay on the program. We have to reprogram our way of thinking. If we decide to be fit and healthy, and live every day that way, then there's no question of success. It will happen.

And it's not just visualization. "Working the practice" means that you have to act. You have to make the right choices about what goes in your mouth and how you move your body. Remember, practice makes perfect!

I hope I don't come across as too preachy! I don't mean to be.

Take care, everyone.
Cheers,
Mary

I am starting a new thread...see y'all there!

Well guys! It's better. I finally got motivated again. I lost down to 190.4 It's my lowest point. Thanks for the advice guys. You guys are awesome.

In regards to the counselor that can help... well working there makes it difficult. People assume you know what you're doing and kinda just flip through your diary, which makes it hard to get a full daily. All of us have agreed to help each other out and have made a bet between all us that work it really helps.

Does anyone attend a site in NY?? Or heard anything about the NY centers?
