Lori.....congratulations....what a great accomplishment.

Starzmon....slower it is working for you.


I have made it through a full week of exercise class. I have to say my stregthening class kicked my butt friday. ...in fact, speaking of, it is so sore! These classes were so worth it. Even with my profession, I still tend to hate working out. I have been having so much fun. Oh, and for the week I lost 2lbs!

Good Morning

Im taking a much needed rest day today. I do plan on cutting the grass later(and i have a big yard ) hopefully it won't rain so i can.

Babyblues..yay on the 2lb loss,awesome. And high fives on the week of workouts

Hi, all.
I've been doing well on the eating part of my plan, but am not doing so great at getting in the exercise.
I'm down 2 pounds, so I'm right on target, in spite of myself.
I don't post a lot, but I check in about every other day, and I love seeing how everyone is doing!
Keep it up, everyone! You're all part of my motiviation.

Yay Tweetlebeetle on the 2 pound loss!

I am down a pound, weighing in at 191!!! So exciting! I've been jogging more consistently on the treadmill while at the gym and I think that might have something to do with it. Definitely not complaining though

good weekends make good weeks!!! 3 lbs lost

I'm jumping in a little late here. New to this whole thing...but have been creeping around 3fc for a few weeks now and decided what would work best for me. I hope to be 205 by halloween putting me at pre-pregnancy weight. I've been on it for a week now and lost 3.5 lbs and have a weigh in this sunday with myself and hope to be down 4 to 5 more pounds.

Tweetlebeetle , Chele , David and babybluess ... congrats on your losses. You are doing fantastic.

Let's all stay focused this weekend. I find Fall weekends a little dangerous for me, so I've planned my dinner carefully today: sauteed center loin pork chop (in a little EVOO), big salad with lo/fat Blue Cheese dsg., half a Stouffer Corn Souffle, fruit for dessert, glass of white wine. Yummy stuff ... but not too much.

aspaite and EarthyWitch!!! Hope your challenge with us here will go really well!

Enjoy your well-deserved rest, misspriss!

Have a great weekend, all!

starzmom,losing4another,BARBPA~EVERYONE ELSE~I Hope you had a super Saturday!


My day~I had allergy & asthma problems all day so I had to skip half my exercise~Which is ok~because I usually have one day a week I do not do so well on the exercises~So no biggie~but it was so hard to breath today that I had an anxiety attack~Right during me & the hubby taking our kids for a hike at the same place me & him went too~because they saw pics we took and begged to go.~So I felt kinda like I may have ruined it for them I had to backtrack while my hubby took the camera and walked them on around~But When theygot to the car They were fine And they looked happy in there pics so I Hope I didn't ruin there time for them~There great kids.
& my hubby is GREAT ALSO.
I switched my calories a few days ago when I added the exercise bike into my days and I am starting to see some more loss or so it seems. I eat about 1300 calories a day to 1330.
I was at 1375 to 1400 per day.
I started at 181.0
I was 179.4 today So I have lost 1.6 lbs so far.
Which is decent for me since The more I lose the slower it comes off.
OH ~Good News ~All my 11's & 12's are in the too big pile~I am totally into all those 10's ~ And 1 pair of 9 jrs I had ~SO I AM SOOOOOOOO HAPPY!
I have been trying to guess what My new size will be when I reach 150.
Would be nice to see a 6 maybe???
Who Knows....I have never worn the sizes am in now ever~When I was in the 4th /5th/ & 6th grade I wore womens 13/14 In Jeans.
Before that girls plus size clothes. So I am super excited!
With each pound lost I am a New me totally~I have never been thin so when I reach goal I am so curious as to what I will look like~SORRY TO BLAB ON ~LOL~ I am overly excited today~I guess overall I had a blessed day.

I hope everyone else did too.
HUGS TO ALL!

Hey everyone. Just checking in for the week. I have been on my new lifestyle change with food and exercise for two weeks now. I weighed in this morning and took my measurements. I'm down 3 lbs and 6 1/2 inches. Not as high of a number as I was looking for, but I know as long as I keep a steady number each week I will eventually make it to where I want to be. Hope everyone has a great week!!!
