Sandi - WELCOME!

Monica - Go to user cp, then edit profile, it should be under additional information. I hope you feel better (physically).

I had a horrible food weekend, first chinese, then a cheese burger and desert at dennys. I went out of town outlet shopping. I got some good stuff, though not really feeling very deserving of it due to falling off the wagon. I'm still bloated. Though, I am determined to exercise more this week now.

I would like to join if it's not too late. I'm going to aim for 5 lbs, since losing even one pound seems impossible for me! I'm starting at 238.

Hello ladies,

dustcatcher.....:welcome: ........good luck with your goal, I hope those sticky pounds loosen there grip on you so you can shake them off......we will be here cheering :cheer: :cheer: you on and giving you :nono: a good dose of reality when needed. :D

Supersized, don't beat yourself up too much, we all have our turn at falling off the wagon.....just don't let it happen again ;) . Enjoy your outlet purchases. I also didn't do so well yesterday, since I was still feeling sick I decided to get McDonalds for the kids (didn't want to cook) so I shared a cheeseburger happy meal with my son, I ate most of the burger. I was happy I managed to get something in my tummy just wish it had been healthier. Thanks for the info as you can see with you direction I managed to figure it out finally!!!

My goal for today is to try and get something healthy in me and also do 20mins on the recumbant bike....wish me luck!!

It's never too late to join. Welcome dustcatcher!

Hello ladies,

well I met one of my goals yesterday and that was to get a meal into me and I was happy about that. I didn't get the workout in for I spent the evening with my dad at the hospital and when I got home I was tired and well depressed so I went to bed. Tonight I am spending the whole night with him, we always have a family member with him around the clock and tonight is my shift.

I wish you all well :)

I would like to join too...My goal is to be at 155 by aug 1st thats about 7lbs...I'm counting calories trying to stay around 1300 and trying to exercise which I haven't been very motivated to do lately...Hope this thread will help..

monica - sorry to hear about your father

Happy 4th Everyone. Welcome Philosopher and Donna. Let's all motivate each other to eat right and exercise.

Due to all the holiday food, I've decided to go on a little fast. Well, a baby one. Today I did ok. I stayed under 700 calories. After tomorrow I can eat normally again. I can't wait to get rid of all this extra weight I gained just from this weekend. It stays in my system for soo long.

Hello ladies

Nice to have some more join our group!!

:welcome3: Philosopher and dgpebbles, good luck over the next few week, I hope we can all meet our goals!

Supersized, way to go and get back on track. Keep up the good work :D

Well for me, things have gotten a little better for my Dad, he is now in rehab so will hopefully be able to come home in the next week or so. Today I will try to get in all my water which I haven't been so good with lately and I will also try to ride the :ebike: tonight for at least 20mins. I have also become a slave to the scale so I am not going to weigh in again until Monday. And there you have it :p .

I wish you all will power and healthly vibes.

Till next time,

Monica - Glad to hear that your father is doing better.

Been doing ok on the exercise. Is shopping exercise...hehe. How is everyone else doing.

I know it's the 6th but im in

I had a bad eating day on the 4th so now I'm trying to play catch up to where I was 3 weeks ago before vacation...between the two I'm still up like 4lbs....I doing great at getting in my 64oz of water but eating and exercise is lacking some

chicky-I right there with you on the exercise...I also need a kick in the butt to get going..

Monica-glad to hear your fathers doing better

Goddess - Welcome.

Donna - I hear you about the added weight. And if I exercised more, I probably wouldn't be as bloated still.

After two days of eating minimal, I'm still bloated by 2.5 pounds. Today my co-workers and I went out to eat. Why is it that when I go out, I think, I'm going out, I might as well eat a real meal, and that's not a salad? So instead of getting the chicken salad I get chicken and rice or mashed potatoes. I have to adjust my thinking about what a real/good meal is. But I'm exercising tonight, so at least it wasn't a total loss of a day.

Hello ladies,

I need a good kick in the a$$ to get me exercising. By the time evening comes and I actually have the time I am so tired from running around after 4 kids that I can't seem to get myself to peddle that stupid bike!!

I am in a wedding in Sept. and got a call that the dresses are in. I would really like to get rid of another 10 pounds before my fitting so I need to get working out NOW.

Tonight I will do my Billy Blanks contact CD even if it kills me :)

Welcome Goddess, good luck with your goals........we have the same goal weight!!

dgpebbles and supersized, eating can be so hard to get a handle on, can't it!! I wish you both well and have a good eating week-end.
