    Picked up a large veggie tray on clearance rack at grocery store $4.99. Great price and healthy snacking while on the road. Grape tomatoes as well and apples

    Grandsons 1st birthday, he is a positive motivation for me to live a healthier lifestyle! Mom (71 y/0) had heart attack yesterday :( but stable. I have high blood cholesterol so this is more motivation to eat heart healthy and stay physically fit. Time to get moving....

    Parties are so hard to eat good through but planning ahead helps. Sorry about your mom! That's scary and glad she is stable. Use it as motivation if you can.

    Thank you currentlysane. My bad eating habits are creeping back in over this week off of work, my fault, giving myself excuses. My energy level is showing it. I did get out my Wii yesterday. Did some Wii sports, been years since I turned it on. Still need batteries for the Wii balance board so I can use the Wii fitness programs I have. I forgot how much fun Wii Fit can be.

    I'm so sorry about your mother. I'm glad she is stable.

    Worked out on the Wii , My Fitness Coach 2 game. 2 of the preset workouts done. I was sweating by the end of it. I did really bad in the balance challenges, fair in the lower body workouts and good in the upper body workouts. Signed up for the Amazing race-Fall challenge here on MFP to continue my motivation for exercise. I also wrote up a menu plan and schedule to fit in exercise daily. Hope all is going well with all of you.

    Stayed within my 1200 calorie goal today. Not so sure about the rest of last week as I didn't track. Went grocery shopping today to get more healthy/low calorie options in the house. Curious about my weight in the morning. Hope I didn't gain it all back.

    I think I did well for this first week's goal. Every other day we are loosing weight, becoming thin and loosing body fat. The pockets of fat are now getting empty and replaced by the sagging skin (neck and lower abdominal area), asking me to do something. Any idea apart from plastic surgery. Help would be appreciated.

    I was really looking forward to seeing the scale this morning. I ate my normal breakfast, a big healthy lunch then soup for supper most nights last week. I think that really helped me. I still snacked between lunch and supper but kept to fruit, nuts, or under 150 calorie snacks. A couple of nights we had a cheese and fruit plate hor'dourves. I added some crackers and meats for my hubby so he's been okay with the soup as well. Overall, I stayed very near 1200 calories a day and didn't feel deprived.

    I hope everyone else is finding something that works for them. I am ready to see if this works again this week for me. Many new soups to try!
