Congrats to all of our big losers!

So last week staying up on the food journal here was a little overwhelming, so I think I'm just going to participate in the LCW thread. Now i need to get off my bum and do my am workout (its 2:15 PM). I way overslept today, again.

I think we have a fighting chance next week though! Me plus quite a few others used a freebie this week for various reasons...and we weren't that far behind them...so LET'S GET 'EM GIRLS! We can whoop 'em!

I've been totally on plan and doing REALLY good as far as working out goes... for more than two weeks now. Not even a pound lost, I'm pretty disappointed. I think this is the most I've ever applied myself as far as exercise goes so hopefully this week I see some results.

Hey everyone....I am here but I used a freebie too because I didn't realize that the WI date had changed. Apparently there was a purple team that changed it? Anyway, hopefully I can make this work. I'm going to try :P. And I have major motivation. My sister is getting married in St Thomas while on a cruise in September. And.....I really want a balcony room but my dh doesn't cuz of the cost. Sooooo.....if I make 130 by July 15th I get my balcony room!

Good job Red Team! Even though we didn't win this week it was a close one. I have confidence we'll step it up and win big next week.

Have a good week everybody!

Just pokin my head in to say Hi! It's been crazy for me for the last few days. We finally got a diagnosis for my dad (Hep B). We're hoping they will admit him to the hospital today for a feeding tube. He's down to 109 lbs, on a 6'1" body. He is super sick, and between homeschooling my kids and trying to deal with him, I'm exhausted.

I have to say, I think we (the red team) did great! Keep it up everyone.

Well done everyone! Those are great results!

So today I had a really big reflection moment, I don't know if anyone else has had one? But I've been eating healthily and calorie couting for just under a month, and this is the first one I've had.
So basically, school was over for me, but I went to the local supermarket with a friend because she was hungry, and I wanted a snack to last me until I got home to lunch. She's my best friend, but hates her weight, has a horrible eating habit, and I think may be one of the reasons why I used to snack so often...anyway.
I bought an apple, because it was all I wanted.
She bought two packets of crisps, a large carton of apple juice (150cals!) and a bag of chocolate raisans with over 1000 calories in it.
This was for her lunch.
I didnt say anything, because she is very touchy about what she eats, but it amazed and to be honest, shocked me. I can't belive that I used to eat so badly! Seriously, I wouldn't dare eat it now, not even one packet of crips because I don't crave them, and I don't want them in my body.
Anywho, I just wanted to share it, because it just really shocked me, and gave me a little reality jolt of the contradiction between me now, and me a month ago

Good morning ladies! Congrats to all the losers this past week.

Last week I was smack in the middle of TOM so it was kind of a crappy week for me and we had our yearly blizzard (1 inch of snow, but in TN we think it's 1 foot) . This week though I'm hitting the ground running.

Have any of you ladies heard of Demarle cookware? I had a brunch for my friends yesterday using this and it is excellent for cooking healthy foods. I made a crustless quiche with fresh veggies and it was great, no oils were used, minimal butter and the cleanup was a breeze. I also roasted asparagus and my daughter that is a very picky eater ate four pieces! Needless to say I'm a believer in this stuff and I can't wait to cook chicken and fish in it as well.

Good luck this week ladies and have an awesome day!!!

tonimaroni2 - Hang in there, the results will show...believe me, I know its frustrating, but it will happen

I am trying to remember to take a multivitamin, I have been feeling pretty tired. Part and parcel of getting up at 4:45 every day, I know, but still out of character for me. I'm trying to stay committed, although I'm tired...; I did go to bed at 9:00 last night, so that helped

Good afternoon team...

I decided last week to start doing two-a-days. I seem to lose the most weight when I work out twice a day. Yesterday, I did a FUN Aquacise class and then some circuit training. Today, I did 30 Day Shred , and will do Spinning class tonight. My gym offers great classes. So the plan is to do an excercise vid in the AM, and a class + plus some individual work in the evenings. Let's get this weight off, RED TEAM! Have a great week!!!
