    Went to the goodwill last night in hopes of finding some cheap jeans, since my size 14's are starting to fall off me. I bought a pair of 8's!!! Granted they were gap and stretchy, and they give me quite the muffin top right now...but I can button them and the belly will be out of the way soon. Funny thing is that the size 13 pants I have in my closet from a few years back, I still can't button! Lol. I wish sizes didn't vary so much between brands.

    That's awesome! I wore some size 12's to work yesturday ppl were like "hey you're losing weight"
    lol...guess they don't notice when I hide it in the same clothes from 20lbs ago :wink:

    Rach - ask me next week how I'm liking it....lol

    I tried it last year with my boyfriend and I whined so much he politely suggested I try another type of workout. This time around I am doing it alone as he is into a lifting program. Last night at bedtime he told me how proud he isof me for trying it again in addition to my lunchhour workouts.

    I have such a great support team, my boyfriend, my daughter and all of you wonderful ladies.

    Thank you

    Forgot to check in yesterday, it was a crazy weekend, and this weekend will be even crazier! Still at 142, but the scale has been dipping down sometimes and never up, so I'm pretty happy with that :)

    No change for me. Still 171. Guess that's good considering how bad I've been.

    I'm feeling super blue today and am on the verge of raiding the fridge. I'm buried in a project that got thrown at me at work and the frustrations that came along with it have got me in the worst "distress stage" of culture shock since I arrived in Quito two years ago.

    My husband is working nights this week, leaving me all alone to clean out the cupboards and hide all the evidence before anyone could ever know. It's really hard to be over 3,000 miles away from all of your family and friends. And judging by our financial situation, I won't be moving closer to them anytime soon.

    Sometimes I feel like I am completely out of control with my eating. I feel down, and I "have to", "HaVe To", "HAVE TO" gobble up everything in sight.....

    ....the reason why I've gone from 175lbs to 123 to 145 to 130 to 164 to 140 to 155 and back to 140. Will I ever get a grip?

    Great job everyone. I stayed the same, but I'm afraid after 3 days of catered meals at a conference, I'm going to be up next week. At least I can be proud of all of you!

    Malpal I'm sorry things are so stressful for you. Instead of raiding the fridge can you take your frustrations out in a workout of some sort? I'm thinking of you. HUGS

    Grrrr I hate my digital scale. I can step on it 3 times in a row and it's different everytime. Varying 6 or more lbs!

    Eeeeek my stupid digital scale is the same way :/ My wii scale is the most accurate.

    Watching Biggest Loser =)

    "Don't drink your calories" - this is way I'm glad I mainly drink plain old water =) I like to save my cals for food but I do have my daily protein shake/meal replacement shake!

    I did go a bit carb-wild and ate 3 granola bars and 3 peices of toast with butter, going waaaaay beyond my calorie goal for the day (but nothing compared to some of my past binges). Then I read your message, cried a bit, and went for an hour walk and did a 30 minute kickboxing video, so in the end I finished the day 276 calories over goal, but it could have been much worse.

    Thank you so much for your thoughts and encouragement, Jenn! I really needed those HUGS and the reminder that I don't have to fall back into old patterns and I CAN make this a permanent lifestyle change. Thanks again--you are too sweet!! :flowerforyou:

    hey everyone! congrats to all on your successes thus far, everyone's doing so awesome! i was off last week and while i got some exercise in, the eating part def could've been better. i was actually somewhat glad to get back to work and back into a schedule. i ordered and received my TurboFire this week and am officially starting it Oct 1st! i lost about 6 lbs in a month of doing TurboJam, and if i could actually get myself to eat better i think i'd have lost a tad bit more. here's hoping by nov 1st i'll be well into the 160's!
