    @Brans34 I had a morning walk on Monday and was just dead the rest of the day (I had felt peppy before that), so I'm with you on the morning exercise is a no. Works for some people, so awesome!
    Yesterday I had a bad day at work, and decided to walk instead of taking the day off and walked 1.88miles, my longest distance since I started walking. Beautiful day, nice cool breeze, lots of things to see.
    My motto this week when I get frustrated (I just did all this exercise, why am I not magically skinny??) seems to be from Wreck It Ralph - One game at a time.

    Congratulations on the 1.88 miles. It's great that you're able to increase your distance.

    They say 'You didn't get big in a day, you can't expect to lose it in a day.' Which kind of makes sense, except that I can put on an awful lot of weight on a bad day :neutral:

    You're not kidding. I can do some serious damage in a day. :angry: It's more like penance, you did something that happened in an instant, now you have to work it off for days.

    I've lost 10.9 lbs between March 9th and today. My starting weight when I joined this challenge was 164.3 lbs. and today I weighed 153.4 lbs. Today my doctor told me that I am no longer considered overweight and that I can start trying to maintain my current weight if I want to. If I were to fail to lose more weight would this disqualify me from the challenge?

    There really is nothing that would disqualify you from this challenge. I am thrilled for you. This challenge is about support, no matter if you and 10 or 100 to drop or if you just need support to maintain!!

    @kayjosh2422 ----Thanks! I truly appreciate that I am still able to remain in the group for support since it is a well-established fact that maintaining weight is MUCH harder than gaining or losing weight for those of us who have food issues. I am VERY determined to continue weighing/measuring/logging my food for the rest of my life since I feel SO much better now that I am at a healthy weight!

    First time that I've gone off track. I guess, after a while, I get bored of eating only clean foods. Hubby brought home Mexican leftovers. Got home late last night and munched.....then munched (grazed) more today. That $%#@ Mexican food! Went over my calorie limit today for the first time in ages (but only 300 calories). Tomorrow is a new day. You gotta live, ya know? Not going to feel guilty. It's behind me and it was AWESOME! So worth that extra 300. LOL.
