Me and chai just got back from a 3 mile walk ... what a beautiful night... we walked to the beach and he had a lil swim... this 21 days seems to be going super fast!!!


Vanessa!!!!! way to go!


Shad: all my pets are cast aways... and they all have lil quirks.. U are giving ur kitty a wonderful loving home... thats the important thing... im not so sure even an animal shrink could change their personality... some are cuddlers.. some are just independent...

TO ALL THAT HAVE MADE THEIR CHALLENGE!!!

There are SOOOOOOOOO many cute pictures of our pets! I just love looking at family pictures!!! Thanks for sharing!!!

I've been MIA after my challenge trying to get my head screwed on straight. I'm fighting that mental game of getting under 200! Well I didn't really go overboard eating unhealthy But I know I did just enough to gain a few lbs. I'll be able to see the damage tomorrow. (My weight in day) Well on a good note I'm fighting it! I decided to let my self sulk or whatever it is I'm doing one last day. (Sunday) Then no excuse I'm going back on a challenge!! I bought an Elliptical. I seen it at wal-mart. It was to cheap to pass up. On clearence for $79.00 (reg. $159) I know the cheap ones aren't the best but I don't have $500+ right now for the treadmill or Elliptical I had my eye on. It isn't a belt driven (I heard that magnetic ones are best) so that is a plus and it's quiet! It has a pluse monitor the basic elec. stuff but I feel it's not correct. I'm actually surprised on how much I like this one. I'm also suprised by not being able to do it for long. I got so tired doing it for 5 minutes! I have no ideal what is wrong with me!! I can do the WATP 6 miles total and not be as out of breath as 5 minutes on this!!! So here's my 21 day challenge! (thanks for suffering though my blabbing)
1. Take My Multi Vit and Omega Complex Pill each day
2. Stay in my WW Points/log food in WW Pure Points Software
3. Exercise at least 10 minutes a day.
4. Tell myself while looking in the mirror each moring that I CAN do this!! And something good about myself! (feel silly writing this but heard somewhere this helps)

done with day 2 :

4 hour nap first:
45 min elliptical -oops
100 sit ups
5.5 - 8oz water

congrtz on everyone that finish their 21-Day Challenge.

Cute picture of the kitten/cats - love animals but married somone that never had a pet - Blah!!

Here I am and getting hooked once again to 3FC! Thank God! I need this place!

Congratulations Vanessa on finishing your challenge!!!

My goals for today are:

1/Stay on SBD plan.
2/Drink 4 glasses of water.
3/Journal eating.


I spent the entire day yesterday saying good bye to my old habits and hello to my new habits. I cooked up salsa chicken bake and divided it into six individual lunches or dinners which I froze for future use. I put it in divided containers with green beans in some and broccoli in others. All I have to do is pop em in the microwave and viola! I also made SBD cheesecakes for my desserts in the evenings over the next two weeks. I made jello and boiled some eggs and made vegetable quiche cups to freeze for work day mornings. I think I'm prepared to do well these first two weeks. Wish me luck. I didn't read the SBD book completely, is that a bad thing? I mean I think i pretty much get it. That book is such a slow read for me. YuK!

Anyways much luck to everyone on their challenges and weight loss!!! Send me some positive thoughts and will power will ya?!

One more thing, these tickers? How do you go and change your weight on them?? Do you have to make a new one everytime you lose a pound? I lost a pound and I know it's not much, but hey, I'll take what I can get!

go to user cp,, and edit signature, and change your current weight #

Just got back from my morning walk. We only walked about 1.9 miles. Kinda disappointed it wasnt as far as I wanted. Last night we walked another 1.6 miles. But still I wanted to do atleast 2.5. *sigh* oh well. Every little bit counts I guess.

I dropped out...Life got in the way, and I haven't done any abs. I'll come back when the stress is better. thanks so much for letting me play. I'll be back!!!

The DAMAGE!!! I GAINED 4 LBS! OMG!!! More than I thought but it's so easy to FOOL oneself! Anyways the damage is done and it's time to repair. So here I go Day 1

diamond_girl - Lets start together and to quote Ba Ba ( Forest Gump Movie) I'll lean my back on you and vise versa so we don't get our face in the mud!

Thanks Curly!! I did it!

Red,
That's my son Gage in the picture. The hands in the picture on the side of the tub are mine though.

Hi Everyone:

I'm very impressed by reading your thread and would like to join in......You all seem like just the motivation I need to get back on track....I was doing real well with 20 mins. of hard cardio and 20 mins. of wts....BUT THEN....home renovations began, I had no doors in my house and there was sanding, dry wall capentry and I've been staining/pickeling the new wood.... so formal exercise has stopped, but I'm doing heavy housework and not over-eating. I was also interuppted with a raging case of poison ivy that drove me crazy....I did a stint of prednesone, but still can't get rid of it.

Now that I've given you more info. than you need, can I still join? I have CATS! (2 maine coones) and a 92 lb. Akita....

I'm plotting my challenge and even if I start slow, it's better than not starting at all.
