Hello - a late post for me, I can't believe how busy I am this week! Anyway, started journaling what I ate this morning and so far so good. I didn't get my walk in at noon but I will go the the gym after work. I have to get those dreded 10 pounds off by November!

Have a great day!

Me again - I didn't to do bad yesterday. I managed to make it through my workout without too much trouble. My eating wasn't too bad either, after not watching what I was eating for a couple weeks. I went over points by a couple. But that was with fruit so I didn't feel too bad.

Hope everyone is doing well.

I am doing Red's 21 day challenge, 15 min of stepping (I'm on day 12) and a mini challenge for no beer (day 5). I've been trying to be careful
about what I'm eating too. I think I'll have good news on Friday!!
Roxy- don't worry about the fruit! I've noticed some diets don't let you eat alot of it, I guess because of the sugar, but it's good for you! Lots of nutrients and fiber. I never feel guilty about eating it.

Good morning all. Still dealing with the eating issues. I missed my workout yesterday too. I know it is stress - new job, sick critters, new home - but exercise and healthy food can only help. YIKES!

Have a good day all.

Happy Wednesday! I did really good yesterday until I went to a dinner meeting. Oy! Today I'm back on track. I plan on walking during lunch and going to the gym after work. I feel so much better when I'm able to get my workout in. I hate to say it, but I actually missed it the last several weeks. My Mom was able to start driving yesterday so that will help alot!

Have a great day!

Good morning all. Off to work soon. Training a morning shift at one of my programs. JOy. I did get my circuit training program yesterday, so have no excuse not to do weights. Did make it to the barn. Did eat enough for the whole football team. Oops.

At least the allergies are starting to feel better, and I slept last night. Maybe if I can catch up on some good sleep, I will be able to stop the eating so much.

Roxy, glad to hear about your mom. Hope you were able to get your workout in.

Have a great day all.

Hello, anybody out there? Where is everybody?

I had a busy weekend and didn't do very well with eating and exercising. I had a birthday so I had cake and ice cream and went out to eat several times. Starting out good today though. I'm tired but my plan is to get my workout in.

Hope everyone is doing okay.

Hve a great day!

Hey everyone! I'm still here! LOOK! I even moved my tracker! One pound gone. I have not had any beer for almost 2 weeks. Thats at least 150 cals less per day. I'm guessing around1,500 a week. That adds up, doesn't it? Not to mention the money saved. Other than that, I'm just trying to eat less. I want another 2 pounds off by the end of Sept.

Roxymom 09-21-2005 09:36 AM

Hey Apple- that great! No beer for almost 2 weeks! I'm proud of you!

I haven't been doing that good lately. Just can't get motivated. I need to get up off my butt and get started again. I know I can!

Apple Blossom 09-23-2005 12:35 AM

Aloha everyone! Still hanging in there?? I'm sticking to the no beer and trying to exercise a bit more. I've added 3 sets of sit ups daily.
A word of advice: You won't lose any weight if you have pizza and M&Ms for dinner! :devil: :m: :m: :jeno: :jeno: :m: :m:

Roxymom 09-26-2005 10:28 AM

I thinking everyone is as busy as I have been. Hopefully we will all have time to post soon. I need to get back to posting everyday.

Apple Blossom 09-29-2005 12:43 AM

Hello! Anyone out there? I am! I have gone 20 days without beer!!!! Unfortunately that has been paired with uncontrolled EATING and not enough exercise. One of these days I will get everything going at once and make some progress....I hope to hear from you soon, Roxy - I will try to post daily too!

Roxymom 09-29-2005 09:25 AM

Good Morning!

Apple - that's great! I'm proud of you - 20 days!

I haven't been able to get things together either. I will loose a couple pounds, then gain them back. Loose them again and gain them back. It's so frustrating. Haven't had much time to get to the gym either. My Mom has been keeping me busy after work. Hopefully soon I will get it together again.

Have a great day!

Apple Blossom 09-30-2005 03:17 PM

Hey, I did it! 3 weeks of no beer! :cp:
I am the same way, Roxy. 2 pounds up, 2 down and the right back up again. I think if I diciplined myself that might gradually go down permanently. I am shooting for a pound a week. More than that would be great but I don't want to get my hopes up. I REALLY REALLY want to lose 8-10 pounds by Thanksgiving and a pound a week could get me close. I know you're looking to drop the same (stubborn) 10, so lets go!
Let's start Monday..... :devil:

Roxymom 09-30-2005 04:12 PM

I'm with you Apple!

I did get to the gym last night. It's amazing who out of shape you can get in just a couple weeks of not going! I made it through. And I'm not really sore this today. Now I need to keep it up!

I'll be gone over the weekend. I check to see if an October thread has been started on Monday. Have a great weekend! :)
