morning ladies

Well I don't know whats wrong with me...I just can't seem to stay motivated...It's like I've lost so much already and I proud of my new look that I can't stay on track...But I do still want to lose more and tone up more...I only have 12lbs more to be at my original goal but I changed my goal to where I added 10 more to lose...I'm never going to get there at the rate I'm going now...I've got to get my mind set back to where it was before...

I think the insanity has gotten me..lol..anyway I'm going to try to get back on track and stay there..

luckymom-your right we all have to take baby steps..one day at a time

tryin-I'm right there with you..no more excuses

Bonnie-great job on keeping it under control...3 days back on track is great...you will be back down before you know it

mscat-WTG on your class and wow 40 students showed up...how did they all like it?

[dgpebbles]

Bonnie-thanks for the kind words and encouragement....you are also doing a great job getting back on track...I agree with you that we need to start posting our weigh-ins again on mondays...we all need to STOP THE INSANITY again and get focused on our goals of why we are here..Sorry to hear you are having headaches..Are you having caffine headaches for getting back on track? I know I did

I did manage a short jog on friday night but noting yesterday...hope to get in something today...tomorrow I'm going to try to stay focused and get back on track with my eating and exercise..

Good luck with weigh-in tomorrow

[dgpebbles]

Bonnie- great job with your walks and calories...lol we both posted at almost the same time

I am toggling around 230 and can't get under yet. Horrible eating (not overeating, just not eating enough!) and water has not been good - having bladder problems again - I am a tinkling sensation today. Seeing a specialist this month and I hope to get it resolved soon.
Bonnie - You go girl You keep us motivated the way you model how to jump right back on the bandwagon.
Donna - I agree with Bonnie you have come too far to give up now.
Tryin' and Lucky - I didn't even think about Halloween when I created the Thanksgiving challenge-Let's consider Halloween our mini hump.

Well, everyone liked my class and I am not quite sure how to keep that many ladies challenged for the next 14 weeks, but I am sure I will keep it up. Had another class at my house on Saturday, and girls' night out for my girlfriend and her co-workers. It was fun, I am sore and I think I lost a few more pounds and/or inches from teaching all these classes!

Have a great day on Monday!

Hello ladies

Sorry I didn't post yesteray but I've been really sick for the last 2 days..My weigh-in for yesteray is still the same..152.2..glad to know that Im at least standinf still with my bad habits these last few weeks..

I'm back on track eating this week but no exercise cause I can't breathe as it is with this sinus problem..Hope to be feeling better soon and hitting the gym again..

Bonnie-you go girl...you are doing a great job getting back on track and staying there.. you really are motivated right now..keep it up and congrats on the weight loss .

mscat-I bet your having fun shaking that booty..

[dgpebbles]

Bonnie-almost forgot your question...I'm 5'2"

ladies-also it's not that I was giving up..I just can seem to stay motivated...but there is no way I'm going to mess up and gain back anything that I have lost...like you all said I worked too hard to get here..after this cold is gone I plan on giving it everything I got again

Moring bonnie

my daughter just started her first year of college..she still lives at home and I don't see her going anywhere soon...she has a boyfriend but I don't think it will last...between her school 4 days a week and working 5 days a week and me working 5 days a week we really dont see each other very much...she doesn't really help me too much..I think she hates that i'm almost her size now cause she has made some comments about how sick it is that I'm right behind her on weight and clothes.

well you have the hard part behind you now 8 days down is great...you should now be having the craving disapear now...your doing a great job..keep up with the walking and water areobics...cant wait till next weeks weigh-in...we both should have some movement again

[dgpebbles]

I'm still not feeling all that good...still have sinus , sore throat and but ear ache is getting alittle better..I did manage to do 30 crunches last night while watching tv...I'm doing good on eating this week and drinking my water..

Bonnie I take a multi vitamin and calcium twice a day along with flax seed oil(pills) and omega 3-6-9- oils(pills)...I do know that now that I've been taking them for over 6 months that if I skip a day I can feel it so it does help.

[mscat816]

Well I am still holding around 230 - 232 I haven't exercised all week but I have my bellydance class tomorrow. I plan to prepare an hour tonight. Getting breakfast in every a.m. seems to really make a difference.

Congratulations Bonnie on your weight loss and 4 days of exercise down this week. You are a machine! I love the idea of the chart.

Donna - Situps even when you are sick! I hope you feel better. BTW I am having the time of my life shaking my booty!

Hey Tryin' and Lucky stop in - we miss you.

I still have a sore throat and ear ache some...sinus is getting better but i still dont feel up to much...have been eating good all week but only got in one day of weights and a few days of crunchs..

bonnie--hope your having a great time and watching those calories..

mscat -how are you doing?

[mscat816]

I am done with my class! I am so excited - I know that I can accomplish anything and anything is possible because of what I triumphed over in this program. I am taking on being free and passionate when it comes to my health. My weight has been holding and now I am committed that it start dropping. With teaching my belly dance class, I know I will win.

Just had a great Sweet Sixteen Birthday Party for my DD at Ruby Tuesdays with 14 of her friends from school (well a few others I didn't know were coming!). The teens got their choice of appetizers or burgers, soft drinks, and we had a great cake with her picture. My last piece of cake until Turkey day!

Hi Bonnie - You are doing so well - you are diligent and a great example to us all. thanks for posting again so regularly.

Donna hope all went well on your date! Get better.

Have a great Sunday, girls.

I have had a full day and I am taking on going to bed by 11 tonight and 10 a.m. for the rest of the week - I'm taking on an extra dose of Had a good breakfast this a.m. and ate a great lunch. I was sooo full I didn't feel hungry at dinner. It's too late and I am determined not to eat after 8 either so I am having some grapes. Going to get up a little earlier tomorrow so I can get a treadmill workout in. I need more than my once a week dance class to keep fit. I am afraid to weigh in tomorrow I am hoping my BB buddies will show me there is nothing to it!
See ya in the mornin'

morning mscat
Well I'm down 1lb this week...I ate good all week but just didn't get in much exercise...I am feel better now and hope to get back on track

[TryinAgain5402]

Good morning ladies - glad to see all are alive and well and such LOSERS! It's so encouraging to see everyone posting their losses!

I haven't seen the 230's yet - but getting close. Working out as much as home and work will allow, walking as much as I can (essential with a new pupppy in the house) and actually went dancing 2 nights in a row with hubby last weekend; Usually lucky to go twice a year! Moved around a lot - had to make up for the wine I was heavily consuming!

Hope all have a great week - my goal is to walk at lunch everyday and go to the gym rotating cardio & weights everyday this week!
