gonna blow it
Well, one of my friends just called and wants us to go out to dinner with them tonight. I worked out in the yard for today and earned 400 calories, but that's all I have left for the day. I am not a big salad person, and I prefer to get "real" food when I go out. :laugh: SO I already know I'm going to blow this day.…

SOOOOO Tired!!!
I am so tired today!!! I woke up tired, and I just couldn't get motivated! I finally did a 30 min. yoga DVD, and that's IT!!! I usually work out for at least an hour, sometimes an hour and a half. Now I feel guilty because I didn't meet my daily exercise goal, and I probably won't have time later to do anything else! I am…

Hooray for me!
I can finally manage to do more than a leisurely walk for exercise. I separated my ribs at the end of December and finally took the bandage off last night. I just did 20 minutes of light floor exercises and feel so liberated. I was getting so sore all the time and gaining weight and I have to get the fibromyalgia back…

need support and prayers
I don't know why today has to be as horrible as it is, but it is what it is, as they say. Well, since I have about 5000 extra calories this week to use up I thought I'd zip on over to my fav Japanese place and finish them off. I know my habits have changed because I absolutely could not do it. I ordered the usual chicken…

Can't stop eatng!
I have lost 13 pounds so far in my weight loss efforts. But just this week, I have been eating so much and I can't stop. Am I purposely trying to sabotage myself? I don't know whats wrong with me.

Fearing the Scale.
Honestly, I haven't weighed myself in probably 4 months. I just am afraid of facing the number that's on there. How do all of you build up the courage to look down when you're standing on it? I realize that its important to know how much you weigh, but I'm just trying to see if I can notice a change before I step back on…

Sick...AGAIN!
Okay, so I was all excited to buy a smaller size pants this weekend, even if they are a little snug.

Another non scale success
So I was doing my yoga today and there were about 3 poses that I used to have to modify. Today I could do them completely! One of the reasons is because my belly fat isn't as big so it's not blocking my way of twisting and stuff :happy: I have a much stronger core and I'm way more flexible! Just another step to being a…

Refocusing to rebound
Lets all face it, we wouldn't be here if we didn't have at least a little bit of a will power problem (most of us anyway, some have medical conditions, but many of us are just plain weak sometimes). I consider the last 6 months a big sucess for me, but it isn't without it's moments of doubt and failure along the way. I…

I started this program on Feb. 8, started watching what I eat, trying to lose wieght, exercise 2 to 3 times a day and quit smoking all at the same time.

I haven't been at this weight for 8 years and even then it was only for a few months until I got pregnant with my third child. This time I'm keeping it up and heading down to the 130s for the first time since college.…
