Oops - Lettie beat me to it!

My entire post disappeared too.

So, let me just say, hello everyone :)

I am going to try to be good now. My attitude is better, and I have great plans. I am tired of typing, so I will fill you in later :) :lol:

But I have to say.......Jillian.......you look sooo adorable :) I miss being pregnant sometimes. I just can't wait to see pictures of this lttile one :)

Ok, have to go check out Lettie's race to 20 thread now :)
XOXO

Yeah, trying on those pants were weird.. Specially the padding in the seat.. But that's a necessary evil, considering how sore you can get after 20+ miles. OUCH!!

Ok.. Maybe if I make my race to 20 goal I'll post a picture of me riding... LOL

Dan - some things are better left to the imagination... lol!

hi all! many of you may not remember me, I was on Lawl a few years back and lost 28 pounds, I posted on this site once in a while. A few of you are still here. Ironically my last login was 1/5/08!
Well, I unfortuantely gained it all back plus an extra 19 pounds! But I am recommiting this year. Although LAWL was not a complete success for me it is the best I have ever done on a "life style" change so I am going to try it again. I have been very controlled with my eating the past 5 days and have worked out 4 out of the last 5 days as well.
I may not have as much to say as all of you, but know I will be out here "lurking" and working hard.

P.S. ignore my ticker down there, I can not bear to put up the real numbers. This make me real sad seeing where I was

Welcome back ljackson! A new year a new plan!

Hi PostLoser Nicole and everyone else..I had to chuckle about the whole bike short thing with Dan. I did a cycling class at the gym tonight and realized way too late that I FORGOT to wear bike shorts...even with all my natural padding I am going to be sore tomorrow. It was the toughest workout I've done in a long time, but I feel great right now.

Even though I'm not going LAWL, I tend to really just like this group of folks...guess you can say we have our own little cult here. I'm counting cals and exercising and hoping this works....I'm going to see what the 20 thingie is!

Hello All. Just popping in to touch base. I'm trying to "immerse" myself in the Express plan literature. I want to get to a point where I can say that I had a POP (perfect on plan) day. I'm having problems getting all of the servings in (veggies & fruit mostly) and spacing meals. I guess I need need to create a two-week menu plan instead of eating on the fly.

Have a great day! :)

Morning all!

Was 100% POP yesterday(that's redundant, I think). First in a long time, and it was OK. It's good for me to realize that it's not a terrible thing and that I don't really 'need' the other junk. Of course, it also helped that I worked out and went home and cleaned carpets and then was in bed by 9:30! Didn't give me a lot of time to get into trouble, LOL.

Welcome back LJackson - back on the wagon with the rest of us!

Have a great day.

I always keep low sodium v8 juice and pre-cut apples in the fridge for those types of emergencies - both are easy to grab and go and the v8 cans are so tiny and easy to chug! I am just careful about the v8's so as not to make it an everyday habit... fresh is better. I just remembered also - v8 fusion counts as a serving of each - 8 oz = 1 fruit & 1 veggie.

I was wondering about V8 Fusion and if it counts as servings. Thought it might contain too much sugar to count it. Maybe if used everyday...But I suppose if it's an occasional thing to get those servings in it's probably okay right?

Just remember that like regular V8, the Fusion isn't to be used as an everyday thing to get your servings in, especially since technically speaking, it's made from concentrate and has a higher sugar content.

ok, tuesdays are WI days for me. I have lost all my holiday fluff and a little more. bringing me to 177. Which also puts me 3 lbs into my race to 20! woohoo! I will take it.

Nice job Lettie!! I did my first WI this morning and i'm embarrassed to say I'm at 212... But I guess admitting it is the first step...

Day 1 of Take off for me - I don't know why I'm dreading this, it really is not that bad! Just to take the edge off - I'm doing it with the bars... wish me luck!
