It's Saturday!!! Made it through Friday night on plan. Hubby brought home a bottle of wine, but I said "no thanks" and had a glass of diet pepsi instead.
KimL1214 You're right, our "stats" are very close! We will have to motivate each other. I read your "intro" post and I must say that you have a lot on your plate (figuratively that is!) with working 2 jobs. Your paraprofessional teaching position must be stressful as well. I have a lot of admiration for teachers who can help in that type of classroom.
mythreesons Congrats on winning the pot at your TOPS meeting! Great job!
jessicado22 Congrats on getting to the 250s!!!! Awesome! Hoping to get there soon myself!
Hope everyone is having a great "on plan" weekend.
Hey cakses, nice to see you back! Feel better soon.
Thanks for all the well wishes, feeling better today. Wish I could be working out, but obviously that's out. The good news is, I'm back down to my pre-vacation weight today (129.8). So, the one pound or so I picked up while up in NY is gone. Makes me happy. My ultimate weight goal is 122-125 lbs.
Have a good weekend all. I'll try to pop in Sunday night again.
lost 4.4 lbs this week! Just hoping none of it is lost muscle mass from laying at home sick for 6 days
Congrats on your hard work! I know how you feel, it's wonderful!

RED TEAM,
Well it must be in the water, I didn't lose as much as Aclai4067 but I got on the scale this morning and I have lost 4lbs! I have a feeling our first weigh in is going to be great. Nothing feels better then losing weight and taking back my life, nothing.
I had gained 2 lbs I think because of my period but now that it's started I have lost the 2lbs plus 2lbs more! I have been on this plauteu for a month, I never thought I would get off.

Morning Everyone!! I hope that everyone has had a great weekend.. and that RangerChic and cakses are both feeling a lil better today.
Today has been great so far.. up early started the Biggest Loser Cardio Max 6 week workout, had breakfast and now doing laundry and tidying up around as i watch/listen to reruns of TBL Families season on tv.. lol Then this afternoon it's off to my parents for my dads birthday.. my mom is great, called last night to see if i wanted or needed something differant added to supper, and of course no.. she always makes me sweet potatoes instead of regular.. simply because i just prefer them.. lol i love my mommy!
I have to say I am so excited for this challenge to get fully underway.. I will be back tonight to see if there is anything new for Week 1! Good Luck today Everyone.. may God Bless!
Hi everyone! Just wanted to check in, and hope everyone had a great weekend. I did my first 5k yesterday, and am still pretty excited about it! I'm so looking foward for the new season of TBL to start this week.
Hello team, I woke up still tired, but decided while I don't want to aggravate my sickness, I'm not letting it win my days either. So, I ate breakfast and went out for a walk. Unfortunately, it started to rain a little more than halfway through my workout. So, I ran most of the way back home. Not sure it was the best idea recovery-wise and all, but I did it. Anyway, I feel okay right now, a little drained still though. I just downed a water with added whey protein that I picked up last night when I did wonder out of the house to get a movie (GNC in the same plaza, decided to see if they had Jillian's new supplements). It's not bad tasting and it's natural. For those curious, it's Designer Whey Protein 2Go in French Vanilla. It's a packet that you just add to your bottled water. Only 50 calories for 10g of protein. Be careful though, some of the other packets have artificial ingredients, but this one is all natural, so look for that.
Now, I'm working on finishing writing up a blog post I was working on pre-walk and then I'm going to get ready to go out. Going to take it easy with my errands, but they must be done. Whole Foods is my last stop, as I am anxious to get some coconut milk. Hard to find, but delicious stuff. They let me sample it last weekend and I loved it (vanilla flavor). I normally drink almond milk, so this is a great alternative to change things up for me in the morning for awhile. I heard of it from Jillian Michaels' tweets, she was talking about how good it was. She wasn't kidding. I just wish it wasn't so hard to find. I did request my local Publix carry it (they are the most organic/greenwise location around the area).
Anyway, going to start a new thread since the challenge starts this week! Have a good Sunday everyone!

I am glad you are feeling better. Are you going to close this thread?
So I woke up this morning, got on the scale, and wondered how in the **** did I gain 2 lbs when I ate pretty well and got in some good exercise this week?! I wasn't expecting a big loss but come on. I got my answer this afternoon.....TOM. I'm relieved he came this week though since TBL challenge starts next week. Not changing my ticker cause I know it's water weight and I'm going to be good this week so next WI will be good.
