Happy Friday everyone. Any one have any big plans for this weekend or taking it slow after Halloween? I am heading to the beach and found out there is a 5k and the start was only 6 blocks from my friends house so I decided to sign up for it.
Hope everyone stays on track this weekend or if not that the curve in the road is minor.0 -
Good luck on the 5k Ruth!
We have dinner plans tomorrow night and then I'm scheduled for a healing massage on Sunday! Can't wait.

yeah I'm taking it easy this weekend. I may be going to a farm with my roommates and some friends tomorrow, which would be awesome to pick up some local food! otherwise, just homework, and sending in my grad school apps for me!
and good luck on the 5k! i want to go to the beach

Good Luck on your 5k!!! And getting local food sounds awesome! I live in AK so, no fun outdoor activities for me today... boo.
Sounds like everyone has bigger plans than me! I am just sitting at home with my torn muscle hanging out with my baby boy... AND the weekend has already begun to sabotage me... ugh, its so hard not to overeat on the weekend!! Especially when your boyfriend has a perfect metabolism. SERIOUSLY, he could eat everything we have in the house AND a case of coke and not gain a pound. love him, but super jealous. lol. anyways, I went over my calories yesterday... stayed up late and the boyfriend made tuna helper, it was delicious, and I couldn't resist. Tonight I think Im going to try to save half my dinner for later, since I know I will be up later than usual again... I just have to survive the lazy day without snacking!! UGH, wish me luck!!!0 -
ahh sad... I just realized I said Tuna Helper was delicious.... We are super broke these days... lol0

Good morning!
Hope everyone made it through the weekend. Was hectic and didn't really count calories but made healthy choices. It was the best I could do. Was at the hosp for most of it......at least they had a salad bar so that helped.
Now back to work and routine. Here's to reaching our goals!0 -
Down 1 pound as well! This is the first loss I've seen in almost 3 weeks, I was so excited!! Hoping I'll lose again this week for an even 5lbs. I'm definitely seeing a difference, even if the scale isn't exactly showing it. I lost 1.5 inches from my waist since the start of October!
Welcome to all the new people!
And sarakendle - Tuna Helper IS delicious, lol! I rarely buy the "helper" boxes though. I buy a box of rotini, one of those alfredo dry mixes and a can of tuna, chop up whatever veggies are on sale (usually broccoli or zucchini) and make it myself. Not sure if it's cheaper or not, but it seems to add some freshness.0 -
time for weigh in everyone!!
i am 188 today!!! i haven't been in the 180's since pre-college!! yay!!!
this is awesome since last week i went up a pound
i hope you guys had similar results as mine this week.
if not you can do it!!! i believe in you0 -
197 for me. I'm happy because this weight has not fluctuated at all! It stayed 197 all weekend and that to me was HUGE! My body tends to jump up and down so seeing the same weight with no ups was fabulous. Hope it stays fabulous.

I am 153 today, did great over the weekend:)0
-
someone shoot me...............ugh
150 this morning. I had my IUD removed last week and I've had nothing but problems. I can't even work out. I'm in pain and bleeding like I did after child birth. I don't know what to do.0 -
151.2 today... EXACT same. To the ounce! But I am glad, because I totally failed this weekend. ugh. it was ALOT harder than I thought it was gonna be! oh well, theres always next week!0
-
luvbnamom, I am sorry to hear about your procedure not turning out so well... I have a torn muscle or SOMETHING, and its just getting worse, so I can't work out either...can barely walk! Sucks! Hope you get well soon!0

1.) My current weight is 168
2.) My goal by Thanksgiving is 160
3.) I struggle with eating healthy and passing on the snacks my fiance busts out every night at 8:00 or 9:00
4.) I'm proud of myself for getting up at 6am every morning to go to the gym before I go to work. (5:45 on Wed. & Thurs.)
5.) My plan is to keep on trucking and continue to try to make better food choices for myself especially on the weekends. 0 -
Hi everyone! Happy T-giving Countdown: )
1. Don't know my weight. Keeping track of inches instead: 32-27-41
2. Goal Inches: 32-26-40
3. I'm drinking too much wine. It's everywhere at work and social events, and it's only going to get worse as the holiday season rolls around. I don't drink anything else...just love wine. Enough that I'm considering a second career as a sommellier.
4. As of Sunday, I now have a plan. Day 2 and so far so good!
5. Keep a journal of everything I drink/eat in a journal (thanks MFP!) until T-giving
Not going anywhere for t-giving, so no real danger of overeating. Need to get some work done, so will likely be there.0 -
Well I didn't weigh in yesterday. Went home after work and fell asleep until I got up this morning due to this cold. A nice 10 hours of sleep, didn't even eat any dinner. I will weigh in tonight.0

so i bought a new scale... my old dial one was having MAJOR issues.
but a new scale means a different number... so i am back to190.4
OH WELL i know i am still on track, so that is good. and it is really nice to have an accurate number instead of trying to judge between the little lines from so high up.0 -
Well I had today off so decided to do a 9am yoga class that I usually wouldn't be able to do it. It was really nice but kinda of boring to me.0
