Not a good day...
I started January 1 as a 'New Years Resolution'. I have never felt more motivated to succeed in my weight loss battle as I do this year. After gaining 5 pounds over the holidays, I was geared up and ready to go more than ever! I stepped on the scale on Saturday and to my surprise had lost 7 pounds (overall). I was so…

BMI Target...is that the Goal?
I have to ask, as my BMI read out says: Your BMI is: 31.6 (Obese) Target weight range: 128.9 - 174.3 lbs So, I should be shooting for the 170 range? Please advise, Signed, The newly overwhelmed Coach that weighs 225 lbs. :laugh:

A Poem for January.......
T'was the month after Christmas, and all through the house, Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse. The cookies I'd nibbled, the chocolate I'd taste At the holiday parties had gone to my waist. When I got on the scales there arose such a number! When I walked to the store (less a walk than a lumber), I'd remember the…

Whats your motivation this year
I have more then one but one is that I am turning 30 in april and frankly I would not want to celebrate at all with no one looking like I do.

I feel like I'm cheating
I had such a sweet craving earlier today so I snuck over to my sister house and stole a slice of cake, then I binged and stole one of mom's "secret" stashed chocolate bars. Then I felt guilty and shoveled snow.:embarassed: Now i feel like I'm cheating by having to eat more. I went onto caloriesperhour. com and they said…

Sad and Tragic...
I just did crunches on my office floor in a skirt (I only pray it's been vaccumed the last 10 years). I am not really counting it as "exercise" cause I probably only burned like 10 calories....but since I don't have much time to workout with the fiance home (2 weeks...gotta use up ALL the time) I figured even spot toning…

Done for the day.
Today was my first day tracking, and although I preplanned my food for the day, I didn't QUITE stay on track. I'm trying to get in 5 servings of fruits/veggies, and I only had 2 today.

I took the advice of the article on here in regards to eating enough. I know we were warned we would gain weight but I did gain weight, and I am so discouraged.

I'm fed up with everything today :(
Sorry, this is going to be long :blushing: Started off, when I realised my 11 year old has a problem - with sugar of all things. He's been eating my dark chocolate which I keep in just in case my sugar dips (being diabetic). He prefers to eat anything sugary, plays with healthy foods. This is not the first time it's…
