    Haven't weighed myself yet but it's been three days in a row at the gym! I also stayed under my calorie limit...barely.

    I would like to lose 8lbs as well. I think it's doable. Doesn't anyone have any advice that helps them? I'm still fairly new to this and I find it hard to keep on track sometimes. Does anyone have helpful tricks or any foods they like to substitute for "junk food".
    Thanks.

    Checking in. Great job everyone. Aerobics and 2 yoga tapes today. I really needed to stretch before and after. My hip flexors were killing me! I feel so much better. Hope we all stay on track tomorrow!

    Kale chips instead of potatoe chips
    Powdered 85% less fat peanut butter (reconstituted) vs regular on celery
    Flax seed crackers or pita chips vs Doritos, etc
    Popcorn (air popped) with butter flavored spray vs bagged
    Hummus vs high fat dips
    Saltines with low fat cheese or sugar free jelly
    Animal crackers or vanilla wafers vs Oreos, etc.
    Greek yogurt triple zero vs high sugared types.
    These are just a few, and go for fruits and veggies first.
    Smoothies! Vs ice cream

    One week down, one pound gone. I'm going to have to buckle down if I want to meet my GW in three weeks. Time to cut out diet soda and stick with water. Time, too, to be brutally honest about what I put in my mouth.

    I've been getting my 16k steps per day, but going way over my calorie count most days.

    Tomorrow is a new day... new opportunities to find and new successes to create. We can do this! :)
