well i went shopping this afternoon and got stocked up on good foods and totally avoided all types of foods i am known to binge on. returned home to find the bagger never put my bag of fruit in the cart- and since it's a 25 minute drive back there so I'll just stop in the morning and buy bananas and apples. I'll save my receipt and get it next time i go up that way.
I printed out points rules for the game and am planning on measuring tonight- hubby is going to take a before pic tonight. I will weigh in the morning.
Exercise is my downfall and need to get it together and just go for a walk- we finally live in a nice neighborhood where i can walk and not be worried about getting run over.
I was really good as we all went for ice cream tonight and i didn't get anything - i wanted it But was afraid i'd want more every day if i ate some.
I am excited and really looking forward to this!

Sandi-you're on the ball! Good for you!
As for me, I'm ready too. I'm going to take this week on head on. I don't know why, but I feel so motiviated. Probably cause I had a bad weekend w no exercise and lots and lots of food. I'm ready though and if I do good, I get a whole day off of school work, guilt free. Can't wait for that day.
Good Luck everyone!
Good evening! Just a quick note to introduce myself and pledge my support. I have about 20 lbs to lose for reasons that include health, vanity, peace of mind and a shopping spree-- in no particular order. (Well, maybe health first. And then the shopping spree.) In any case, I'm very glad I stumbled across your site and joined your group. Best of luck to everyone and let us opt for permanent change!
Good Morning Ladies-It sounds like we are all ready to tackle game 3 with lots of energy! Great Job!
Welcome nivelodia and sandy. I'm sure you'll get lots of support and motivation thru the game.
La3y-YOU'RE AMAZING!!!!!!!!! Congrats on your ONEderland status. You've been doing awesome and I can't wait to see you posting a pic of the tat VERY soon! I'm so happy for you.
Angela-I had some bad eating over the weekend too. I am not to worried about it though. Odd considering how guilty it usually makes me feel. I think I've finally realized that this IS my new lifestyle, and I need to give myself slack sometimes and enjoy a drink or two and the occasional sweet. I just have to make sure these things stay occasional and I'll be alright. Glad that you're pumped for game 3.
I've got a floor aerobics class at the gym where I'll also have my weigh in/measurements. Had a nice weekend here. Girls night at the comedy club was fun. Sunday I played 2 church services, had a meeting for my coed softball team, then came home relaxed and finished reading a book. We went to our nephews house and played some games of PIG (basketball) then came home had dinner and I finally started a painting I've been planning for over a week. It was a nice, peaceful day.
This week is going to be very busy. Huge day of teaching lessons tonight, training, class, and a meeting in Ypsilanti tomorrow night, Wednesday is Choirs last rehearsal for the cantata, Thursday I have to play a communion service, Friday is the cantata performance AND a LONG service. My mornings are still pretty open except babysitting n & n so should be ok exercise wise. I'm going to be one tired gal on Saturday and then LOTS of services on Sunday! Can't wait for this week to be over.
La3y !! That must feel so good to hit wonderland!!!
i bypassed the coffee today - i just need to keep away from the coffee (coffee + me =eat everything in sight ) so far so good!
Thanks for the warm welcome - this week is one of our busy weeks too- lots of extra work this week and i get Friday off so it's extra hours mon- fri. I am going to curves today and another gym just to see prices.
I also at my measurements last night- never quite realize how ... I'll use the phrase "out of shape " one is unitl you get out the tape measure. BUT i did weigh in at 165 this a.m.and will use that as a starting point.
have a great day everyone!

Hi all how is everyone. My weekend was nice a little to much eating but I am over it a whole new Game and start of me losing weight today. I sat down alot and thought about where I want to be how far I have come from where I was 47 lbs ago. And it's time to let go of the rest 43lbs. And then to make one more goal after that. And I am pumped and ready to start eating healthly and Exercising. ANd it also helps that I am in this weight challenge at work and the pot is $800 dollars sweet new Wardrobe and even my new tattoo...LOL Well have a great day girls
I can't wait to get started. The last couple weeks I've gone a bit slack (though amazingly still losing weight :?) so this is my chance to get moving! I plan on doing aerobics and weights today.
This might sound weird, but last night I was laying in bed just feeling my body (abs, arms, legs, etc.) to see if I noticed any changes in fat and muscle... and I did! Even along my inner thighs I could actually feel MUSCLE! I could hardly believe it. My thighs have always been my biggest problem area... at one time, each one of them was almost as big as my waist!! So I am very excited.
Rosario-we can do it together...we will do it!
Today, I have so much to do...didn't want to get out of bed!!! LOL. I need to clean, go to school and then have guitar lessons. It may not sound like a lot, but when you do school at home and are use to being at home most days, it's a lot! I will get it done. I am going to count my cleaning as exercising bc I will not have time to do my tapes today. I have serious cleaning! Good luck everyone.
Welcome newbies!
