oh pink team, I had four slices of thin crust pizza tonight. I also did the shred and another day's worth of shopping. Tomorrow is a new day.

At the rate were going... we'll be last place.

as long as we don't gain, amirite?!

good morning pink team! Today is a new day! Today is our "last chance" day before the weigh-in, so everybody be sure to get in some exercise today! Whether you do the shred, go for a brisk walk, or do some yoga. Get that heart rate up! Don't dwell on stuff in the past! Optimism, ladies! Negativity gets us nowhere!!!

I am just so glad that the chocolate cream pie is finally finished and out of the house!! That thing was so freaking good!!! haha

I've really tried to make sure to be a little below calories this weekend after Thanksgiving on Thursday...in order to make up for overeating on Thursday, you know? Hopefully it will work out in the long run. I have already been to the gym today and did 40 minutes on the elliptical machine. I am almost ready to make some lunch since all I've eaten so far today is a bowl of cereal with 1% milk.

My weight is the same... It's not going to change unless it goes up... but whatever. I don't care anymore.

Thanksgiving killed me entirely. for the weigh in tonight i think i am going with 121. which is what i started with. which means i gained back the 2 pounds i lost at the last weigh in... argh.. ive been dieting since sep1st and never had a setback and now i feel like i cant even get back on track... i stopped calorie counting for about 5-6 days now and i havent exercised in almost 3 weeks.... i had lost so much weight and now im just gaining it all back.... ill never look good....

whoooa. Ladies. Don't give up on me now! More importantly, don't give up on yourselves. We all have setbacks. I would be lying if I said I didn't feel like throwing in the towel sometimes. Dieting and losing weight is hard! But I feel like the benefits you reap are more than worth it. Come on guys! I'm sure every team is having kind of a bad week because of thanksgiving. Stop dwelling on the mistakes you made yesterday and just think about the future!

I didn't make any mistakes... I can't afford to eat right... so why bother trying?

I definitely agree with Leigh!! Although Thanksgiving is definitely a set back for all of us, we have to make sure to get right back on track and keep on going. New day, new beginning....that kind of thing!

New day, new stresses, new reminders that I have no money, new reminders that I have almost maxed out my credit card buying food so I can get by each week...

I'm sorry... I just am not in a positive mood and don't know why I bother with any of this when I know it's not possible with what I have to live on.

Alright ladies! Time to start getting those numbers in! Don't fret about your weigh-in. Like I said, positive thinking is what moves us ahead. You have to envision it! If your long-term goal seems unattainable right now, give yourself a mini-goal. Sometimes it can be hard to imagine what kind of a change over 50 lbs can be. So aim for 10 lbs or 10% loss just to keep you focused! I'm going to be wearing something pink every day this week in support of my team! Your successes are all very important to me and everyone else on your team. We're all in the same boat together.

This week, I'd like to introduce a weekly challenge for us. I would like us, after the numbers are posted, to put our scales away until next week's weigh in. Sometimes our brains can get lost amongst a flurry of fluctuating numbers. It might be hard for us daily weighers (Myself included!) but I think after a week like we've had, it might be nice to see just how well you can do in 7 days. Are you in?

I'll be back in the morning with my numbers. I've been pounding back water today like you wouldn't believe. Hopefully we all see and have something positive to share tomorrow

Good luck ladies!!

I'm going to be gone most of the day tomorrow so I'll give you my weigh in tonight... *technically it's already monday at 1am*

296.5

Not much difference... but it's something...

209....still holding steady at what I was last week. I was actually kind of surprised that it didn't go up after Thanksgiving and the subsequent days afterwards of leftover desserts

I'm in for the challenge!!! My scale is under my bed so that I will hopefully not be tempted. Thankfully, I am going away this coming weekend with some friends, so that will help! The weekends seem to be when I jump on that thing any chance I can get!

Good morning ladies,
Sorry that I've been pretty silent. Last week of classes = lots of papers and tests....
Either way, I'm at 238.8 =D
