  • Heh, good to see you curly. You changed your avatar and I didn't recognize you at first. Thought we had a newbie. Well, I'm real glad to hear you're still sticking with it, even though you had a few restarts. That's the spirit!
  • moving along..........
    Good morning, all. Looks like things are awfully quiet around here. Where are you, fellow challengers? Well, yesterday was a so-so day. It wasnt't what I would like to see happening on the challenge much but it wasn't bad enough to call foul. So, here I am on Day 9. A busy one today, but I am slowly learning that pigging out isn't going to help make it easier. Good luck to you all. Hope to hear from you soon.
  • Day 7; walked 3 miles! yeah changed my av i was tired of lookin at myself! lol
  • through to 10!!!!!!!
    Morning people. Just a quick note here to say I made it through to Day 10. Had to count there for a moment, the higher you go the more the days run together... Yesterday was a great day, lots of exercise, decent eating. I like this challenge. It's starting to feel like a lifestyle. Still, the dreaded office awaits today and that is always difficult. But, I will get through it without making a pig of myself!

    curly -- Good going! Glad to see you're hanging in there and getting your walking in. Keep it up!

    Others!?!?! Come on in and post! It's been too quiet around here!
  • I keep falling off the wagon and using my AP's. I think I'm giong to have to wait for my parent's move to be finished before I start the next challenge. Hopefully in about 2 weeks I'll be back!
  • 7-19-05: day 8 I walked about 1 mile just walking it started to storm... but I cut the grass for @an hour so i think that still counts as a total of 2 miles...
  • Quickie here.
    Darn, dakota, that's too bad you keep falling off. You sure you don't want to keep trying or I know, how about a different challenge, just something....to keep you here with us. I would miss you.

    Curly -- great going! Glad you are on a roll!

    I'm through today I think okay. going to bed now! Good night!
  • I'm still here...more later
  • on to Day 11.........
    Heh Trixi, hi there! Glad to see you're still with us. I was just looking at your weight numbers. Wow!! You have really lost. I think you're the most svelte among us. Great going and congratulations! Hurry back and tell us more.
    Well, I'm starting my Day 11 here. Eating within limits and putting in exercise each day is becoming a habit. Hurrah! I don't beat myself up when I don't go all out with the exercise, which is what I was doing. And yet, the challenge keeps me from sitting on my butt all day.

    Hope to see more people posting soon.
  • Well I can't say the I have been very good lately...but I am going to keep on trying. So far in the last week I have lost my cat and yesterday my fiance moved out. This is getting really hard keeping it together. I know I will be fine but man this hurts right now.

    Sorry if I depressed anyone. I am a strong woman and I know that I will ok...soon

    take care
  • day 9!! walked 2 miles 'fast' so it would make me sweat! lol used my fav fast walking tune to keep pace... b-i-n-g-o & bingo was his name 0 u have to sing it as fast as u can.. lol
  • Trixi, wow, I sure hope you are strong enough to get through this ok. I'm so sorry for the rough time you're having. PM if you want to talk.

    curly, glad you're walking. Good for you for picking up the pace!
  • Consider it day one for me and a new attidute to go with it. I am feeling better and know that I can still do this. Just because he screwed up does not mean that I don't deserve to be healthy. I will use the break up as a tool to keep me motivated. Down the line when he sees how much I have accomplished without him it will be satisfying.

    We were together for seven years and I guess it was coming. So this morning I got up went to curves and sweated out my hurt. I am at work now and going to immerse myself with paperwork until 6pm and then go home and take my dog for a long walk.

    Redballoon...thanks for all the kind words, they really helped. I am typically very shy and most people when they meet me think that I am a snob but really its not true, I just don't know what to say most times and so I say nothing. This typing makes it easier to relate my feelings and you have helped make that happen for me. Thank you.

    Have a great day everyone.
  • Way to go trixi! been there... done that now im glad he is gone!! lol probably there is someone very special comming into your life soon... I always believe that things happen for a reason... I think iv'e found "the one" but it took time to get over the crap with my X we were together 7 years also... but .. just think of it as his loss...
  • Yeah! his loss...thanks curlylocks!
