Nice slider Michelle. Hey, I love the post by the way. Believe it or not my story is very similiar. I have really never been below around 155 for an extended period of time. And Mike has never judge my weight and loved me no matter what my weight was. I was 196 the first time I decided I needed to do something. And I hadn't even had any kids! I've been around 155-150 for about 6-8 months and just want that extra motivation to see if I can get down and maintain the 130s or 120s.

I'm a binge eater too. I do my best to replace my wonderfully sweet snacks with almonds and boiled eggs. I try to buy a variety and rotate snacks so that this doesn't get old. I switch it out with sugar-free jello, strawberries, raspberries and the like. But for me the eggs and almonds are more convienient to keep around and grab when I get a little hungry.

Also, I keep a bottle of water with me. The first thing I (try to) do when I have a snack craving is grab the water...drink, drink, drink and then try to wait 15 minutes to see if I still want that snack.

Ok, I"m shutting up now!

Lori- I love boiled eggs too. I actually eat them a lot for breakfast, but could eat them for snacks too. Of course I'll be farting like crazy. HEE HEE Do you eat the yellow? Do you know the fat grams and calorie count for egg without the yellow? Does it matter? Just wondering.

I can't get my slider to come up. I have tried to post and it won't let me. How do I get my slider on the screen with all of yours?

Maybe I can help you tomorrow, Joretta. I had a difficult time too, but finally got it.

OK- I'm cautiously happy. I weighed myself this morning and lost 3 pounds. Down to 147. Oops- I forgot to change my slider. I just finished that time of the month, so it could be that. I have increased the intensity of my workouts quite a bit and I have been eating less. So......................... We'll see next Saturday. Hope all is well with the rest of you.

AAHHH- Why isn't my slider showing up? UGH!!!

Something funny is going on. I just went to check on my slider and Edit Signature is nowhere to be found under the control panel. HMMMM

You must all think I'm an idiot. Let's try this.

Ok, Michelle and I checked into what is going on. Michelle found a post that said that you cannot have a signature if you are new until 30 days or 30 posts. so You all should post liberally so that you can get to your 30 posts and get your signature option back in order to see your slider!!!

Kim, I think yours will probably disappear also since this is the case an you are new also.

What I have done to sabotage myself the last couple of days!!

Sunday I decided I was going to have a cheat day/meal. Well that turned out to be a bad idea. I had way too much junk and it has bled over into Monday as well.

I didn't manage to get on the treadmill yesterday and I"m talking myself into it today.

On an up note...I did get caught up on my Bible study and now have to start concentrating on my 2 assignments that are due tomorrow!

OH, yeah...all the junk has caused me to be up one pound today!

Hi Girls! 700 calories burned today on the treadmill! Hopefully that will help the pizza and Mountain Dew I had last night!!Thanks Michelle for sharing that news! (: Accountability is good RIGHT???? I'm so glad you are all doing this. It really has helped me do better. It will be exciting to see where we will all be in 6 months!

My

Slider

Is Not Showing Either!

Ok, had some kind of stomach crud last night and couldn't eat anything...ewwww. Not feeling so well today either. Where is everyone???

I wish there was a way we could get this time to come up right, but I think it is on some other time zone!

It's about 10:30A and I'm going to bed!!!!

Have fun today and don't forget your 30 or more of exercise.

Jetty - how are you feeling today?

Bethany - get your computer going yet??
