Hello Ladies! Today is my weigh day - I lost 2 lbs. from last Monday! I'm very happy with that because I went on plan some on both Sat. & Sun. The great thing though is that I did not get upset and go on an eating binge like the old me would have done because I went off a diet. Yesterday, I mainly just add a small slice of my son's bd cake with a small dollop of ice cream. I actually felt good about that - didn't cheat myself from cake but did not go over the top either.

TIARA - I'm glad that God kept you safe and Hawaii in His palm this weekend!

JENI and DAB - Congrats on the official losses!

Good to see you back MotherMavis!

Hope everyone has a super week! Here's my plan for today:

W: 64 oz.
E: 30 minutes elliptical on my lunch
E: 1200-1400 calories
D: Take a little time for me.

Desmond was sent home with a fever today so the family illnesses just keep on coming. Hoping that this is the end of it and we're done until fall!

W - 64+
E - 10K+ steps
E - OP

Hey chicks!

So I post in week 1 about how I'm gonna get here and then suddenly I've missed week 2 COMPLETELY, and here I am cramming a "no-personals" I'm-so-sorry-but-still-alive post.

Drowning still.... food POP today, weight is WAY up, and my 21 day hiatus from bootcamp countdown is in the single digits. I cannot keep UP! Miss you girls (new and vets!). MAAAYBBEEEE I can check back in tonight. You'll know soon!

Be good!

Hey everyone! My official weigh-in day is Thursdays, but I'm gonna use my Monday weights for this challenge. I started in Week 2 so:

Week 2 : 180
Week 3 : 177.8

The past few days haven't been so great. All of a sudden Saturday evening I got a sore throat. Then yesterday I felt horrible all day at work, was really weak with no energy..turns out I had a fever most of the day. Then today I wake up and I feel better, but I can't talk. Now I'm starting to cough a lot, which is making my throat really hurt again. On a good note though..I'm getting a 30 min massage, manicure, and spa pedicure Thursday FOR FREE! It was a present from my boyfriend's parents. I can't wait!

MM~I'm so glad to see you. I've been missing you.

Kris, I hope the craziness in you life is getting better. I'm glad to see you.

Dawn~The thing Ive learned about the scale~Its stubborn. Just don't let it determine what kind of a day you are going to have. If you keep up the good work, it will eventually come off.

MamaP~great loss so far. Keep up the good work.

Jeanette~congrats on the loss last week! Also congrats for keeping yourself under control. Food isn't the enemy, it is our attitude toward it.

Emily~I hope your little guy is feeling better. I hate it when my kiddos are sick.

Kasey~I hope you are feeling better today. Take good care of yourself. Enjoy that massage this week.

Wow, I made it through the weekend. Now I have two more days of boredom to suffer through. It could be worse, I could be laid off.

My workout last night was ok, but I did it. No running, there were no treadmills available.

Today I need to go pick up some more healthy stuff from the store. I don't want a lot, but I am going to need it to finish getting through the next couple of weeks.

W 80 oz
E 35 minute run, 10 minute row, 15 weights
E 1400 cals
D house work.

Angie~You are doing an awsome job!! Keep up the good work!

DH has lost 10 pounds since Jan 4th. I am so proud of him. For those who don't know he is doing a biggest loser type of a thing at work. He has steadily lost since he started. Plus I am in control of his meals He does well with exercise and eating. I started him out eating about 2100 cals on average plus no carbs at night.

My workout is done. It was pretty good. Since I hurt my foot I haven't pushed myself nearly as hard as I had been. Today I got close. I finished 3 miles in just under 30 minutes (my personal best is 27:48, but it was after that workout I hurt my foot). I am making sure to warm up/cool down now so my times aren't quite as good. But I love the run. Even the row machine gave me a decent workout.

So my 35 minute run/10 minute row/15 minute weights is DONE!

Hey Ladies -

Zoo/Angie - congrats on the losses!

Dawn - I'm sure the scale will reflect all your hard work soon!

Jeni - I wish my DH would eat healthier, he's not overweight (weigh's 150) but the eating could definitely improve. It's nice to have someone committed with you

W - 64+ (met already)
E - nothing planned, running up and down the stairs with laundry?
E - OP (done well today, had an apple and pita with white bean hummus for a snack, so I think I just want a grapefruit for dinner - still really craving the citrus and maybe a spinach salad)
D - clean up the house, it's getting too cluttered and starting to stress me out when I look at it

Dan and I split the workday to stay home with Des, he took a 3.5 hour nap this morning and is sleeping again - must need it. Take care everyone!

Well I'm feeling a little better today, but I still can't talk. I coughing more also, especially when I move around a lot so I called in sick to work today to give me 3 day weekend to rest. The only things I'm planning on doing is going grocery shopping tomorrow and to the spa Thursday. I seem to finally have figured out my problem with the weight issue. I'm almost 100% sure now it was from not drinking enough water. I was down to 176.0 this morning (a 1.8 lb drop from yesterday morning), so it's definitely all the water weight coming off! I'm just hoping it'll keep dropping so that I'll start losing more fat! Hope everyone is having a great day.
