Just wanted to drop by and say Hi to everyone. Happy to see you all with your challenges going strong. I promise I will come back, probably soon, but don't have the time right at the moment.

Had a really stressful and rough time of it for a while and didn't do great on my food, but did keep going everyday with my exercise. I have just in the last couple of days gotten myself somewhat back on track with my eating.

I'm thinking of some challenges to hopefully start next week!

See you all soon!

I'm popping in to say hello! I don't know what my challenges are going to be yet, but I have to say I really like Red's feel hungry one. I hate to say it, but It's pretty darned impossible to lose weight if you don't feel a little hunger now and then.
We are back from our vacation. It was nice to get away. We took lots of pictures and looking at them I realize that I REALLY need to lose some weight. I hate the way I look.Yuck, yuck, yuck. So hopefully something will click and I can get at least 10 pounds off. SOON.

Hello everyone!!!
So glad to see dsjorney and Apple. Welcome back.

Weekend was ok, but I did not do much. I think I somewhat failed on my challenges. Actually the water one was the worst.
So I think I will just restart - today is day 1

I think I need to add 1 more - Food Log...I think it will refresh my knowledge of what to eat.

So D. Food Log (level 3) - 1 day met, did it today, I know what's for dinner and it should be easy.

Hey all. Bad day. Restarting tomorrow. Trying something new.

Take care all

Here's how it stands nearing the end of Wednesday. All systems go!!

1) No Alcohol -- Day 7 completed
2) One Sugar a Day -- Day 6 completed
3) Food Log -- Day 4 completed

Well, I haven't thought of any challenges. I have a fear of failure this time....But I really have to get it together too. Gulp.
Well, no beer, 2 pauses and South Beach Phase 1, 2 pauses. Thing is, with SB you aren't supposed to take ANY pauses, especially during the first phase, so I'm going to try to make it 2 weeks with no pause. Oh, this all sounds so hard, but last time I tried it I lost 8 pounds, so if I stick it out I will be one happy

Jolly, sorry to hear you are starting over. I'm looking forward to seeing what your new gig will be.
Red, you past that difficult 1 week mark! Keep it up!
Pink, you are so close with the exercise!!
Cbeta, you're doing great too!

Hey all. Better day today.

Daily post, day 12 - 2 pauses left
Follow workout plan, day 11 - 1 pause left
Follow menu, day 1 - 3 pauses left

Take care all.

Hola. I realized as today progressed that I can't quite do a South Beach plan, because it doesn't allow fruit for the first 2 weeks and I have a lot of fruit around. So I am modifing the diet to allow for occasional fruit. Don't think that will slow me down too much. I feel really crummy today, I don't know exactly why, but I hope it's not the diet. I think I'm just tired, but we'll see tomorrow!
