*hides for cover*
1. not sure, but definately under 1000 2. 2 - will be three before midnight 3. 1 hour of toning I want this to be day one again, coz I didn't like yesterday. Why I hear you say? I don't know, I just didn't like it. And today being a Monday and everything - Why not start over! I hate it when I do that. Okay, no more starting over unless I don't go by my rules. *nods* Someone hit me over the head the next time I restart for no valid reason. :dizzy: :o |
Just checking in...
This is day no. 7! Monday is my favorite day when it comes to getting motivated. My goals for the day (as usual): eat under 1400 cals, drink 8 glasses of water and to exercise for 30-60 minutes. I had kind of a stressful week, so thanks to this thread and everyone's great support, I made it through some tough times. Red Balloon, CONGRATULATIONS on continuing to stay strong. We need each other on this thread, and you are our main rock! We can do this together. Marti, how are you doing? How's pilates coming along? Hope your back is better. Alya, good luck to you this week. I know you will do great. Cherry, Monday is a fresh start. Good luck to you! Scuzin and Hockeychic, hope your week is a great one. Good luck, everyone. Let's make it happen. Dena |

Hello everyone--
Welcome Amanda!! Sorry I haven't posted in awhile.....been busy with school work and other things. I have not been doing my pilates.....kind of put that on the back burner for the time being. I just wanted to post quickly that I haven't lost interest in the 21 day challenge, but I have so much on my plate right now that I can't concentrate on getting my exercises in. I have thought about doing another food challenge, but I'm doing pretty good there and my water is just excellent.....So eventually I will get back to the exercise. I will post again soon when I'm ready. So I promise....I WILL be back!! Marti |
Hello all!
I"m on day 4 here...I think....and going strong. No worries MNJ, we all know what its like to get stressed and overburdened. Welcome welcome Amanda! |
Day 2 and going strong :D
|
This is day no. 8! Yaaaaahoooooo!
Marti, we'll miss you. Take care and come back soon. Red, how are you doing? Have a great week, everyone. Dena |
Made it to 15!!!!!
Hello all challengers! Thanks for the encouragement. I was really barely skinning by these past days and I was annoyed and ready to lump it because even though I was staying off sugar I was eating way way too much of other things. So I was feeling that not eating sugar was meaningless. I hadn't been able to get to the gym and that didn't help because I couldn't undo the damage I was doing with the heavy eating. Well, something finally clicked and I turned a corner again. For one, I thought, I only have one more week of no sugar and darned if I'm not going to do it. I'm sick of starting over. Even if it's only a matter or principle. So here I am, on Day 15. With Valentine's Day coming up it may be a bit difficult but I'm going to do it, again, just because I'm determined to do it!! :strong:
cherry, ok, you're starting over again. Whatever keeps you going, that's the important thing. Good luck and keep at it kid! Congratulations Den@ on getting to Day 8! :bravo: You're doing well this time. :cp: Keep it up and thanks for the support! Alya, you're on a restart too I see. Ok, perfectionist extreme, no problem there. But remember, we're not judges. We're the cheering squad and we cheer you on through it all so just keep going, OK?!?! :cheer: Amanda, of course it's OK to join!! :lol: Welcome aboard and good luck. It's nice not being alone on the sugar thing these days. And congratulations on your 24-lb weight loss. Good work and good for you!! :cp: Keep us posted and let us non-sugar challengers try to help us through the 14th, OK?! :eek: Scuzin, good to see you're still with us. :bravo: on reaching Day 4!! You can do this! :yes: MNJ, I totally understand. Get some rest, kick back and enjoy your success. You've been a great one and you've inspired many of us. We'll miss you while you're gone but we look forward to you joining us again. Please hurry back!! |
This is day No. 9! My goals today (as usual): to eat less than 1400 cals, drink 8 glasses of water and to exercise 30-60 minutes.
Red Balloon, CONGRATULATIONS on reaching Day 15!!!!! Happy Wednesday, Everyone! Dena |
Day No. 10!
I'll be busy moving, so I don't know it I'll be here the next few days. Hope you all have a great weekend. Dena :) |

OH my gosh! I have missed you all soo much! I am so sorry i haven't kept in touch. So much has been going on. Then we also switched internet providers and that has been a nightmare too. Good news is I have lost one pound. I know no big deal but considering that on Saturday i will be 12 weeks prego with no gains i'm happy. I have had no typical symptoms which has been nice. I have had some irregular heart palpitations and some extreme dizziness, but it's less often now. i had to have an ekg,an ultrasound for my heart and wear a heart monitor for 24 hours. everything came back normal, they did notice the palpitations but were not concerned. The take over at work has been really stressful and is beginning to calm a bit, just in time for the next big change in systems and procedures taking place in march. I have had one typical symptom and that's tiredness, hubby says it's my fault though because I won't slow down. I have some though. The heart thing acts up if I walk rapidly so I get short of breath, when that happens they told me to take it down a notch, so I am. we got to see baby on the ultrasound at 9 weeks no way to determine the sex at that age. baby was dancing around and having a grand ole time though. I am so excited!! we already have been yard saleing and have gotten a high chair,a bouny seat,a changing table,a toddler bed,a stroller 2nd hand from my sister and a few baby toys. Lots of scrubbing and they are like new! This weekend is a really busy one for me,sat morning is yard sales,afternoon is animal rabies shots,evening is babysitt a friends baby, sun morning is church, afternoon is DAYTONA 500!! Sunday evening I am chaperoneing a valentines dance for ROTC. I guess that's it on me for now and I will try to check in more often, I hope all of you are doing great and losing like crazy! I love and miss ya's, Lisa PS My craving is STEAK...oh my god you just have no idea!!! Hubby took me out to a nice steak house restaraunt that was too much for us and I think It was practically an out of body expierience!! He says when we get our taxes back we will go again!! |
I'm on Day 17!!
Den@, Good for you! Congrats on getting to Day 9! I hope you're feeling good about yourself and your accomplishment! :dancer:
Heh, where is everyone!?!?!?! :?: Lisa, so good to hear from you. Why don't you join us again with a doable challenge, even expecting. . . Yes? . .. No? It'd be great to have you with us again. We're a little sparse these days. But we're still kicking!!! |
WELCOME BACK LISA!
Very good to hear from you again :D Me, I'm back on day 1...meh Hope all are doing well |
Hello everyone. Where are you all? I had to go to page 2 to find the thread. Well, I bonked out just a day or two before finishing my challenge but . . . oh well, no matter. I'm going to think of the next one and be back. Hope to see more of you!!
