    Had a brutal day yesterday... when all was said and done I had 4,700 calories yesterday! UGHHH!

    Back to the grindstone today and move on with it! Just a little depressing that you can fall off sooooo hard and almost undo the whole week's worth of work.

    I was over on my calories for Tues and Weds but yesterday was good I was under. I also made it to aqua and I didn't eat any of those calories so I hope it all balances out.
    My clothes are fitting better.:bigsmile:

    I have been having trouble getting all my water in. When it is hot I drink constantly but now it is cooler I find myself falling short of my 8.

    Been there ... done that. It really is amazing how easy it is to go waaayyyyy overboard. But getting right back on track is the key. You're doing awesome. Way to go!!!

    Well, I'm on vacation here in Colorado Springs for quite some time. I've really been trying to do well on the eats. Good and/or decent choices and only half the plate or whatever is my best option. I'm doing really well on water as the high alititude will really do a number on me if I don't and I don't want the headaches. I am on the lookout for a gym...so hopefully Monday I can weigh in...no matter what the results!

    You all are doing so fantastic! Keep up the great work and positivity! :smile:

    Too strange. I posted on the original thread but guess I should be doing it here.

    I'd like to accept the 50 pounds by June 1st challenge. At my age (69) it isn't going to be easy but WHEN I do succeed, I will weigh what I did almost 40 years ago.

    Starting weight: 185

    Just saw this second thread and already posted on the first one! Anyway..as I said on the other post, I just found out Monday that I am pregnant and due in July. This will greatly hinder my goal to lose 50 by June but I am ecstatic so I am not really worried about it. l still want to remain on this thread as I will still be keeping up with my calorie goal and workouts. Just wanted to get this out there as soon I will probably not have very many great loses.

    Alison: I have also made the rule of only weighing myself once a week. I found I was constantly on the scale and I would become discouraged easily! You're goals do not seem too far out of reach and I think with support from everyone on here we can all reach our goals!


    I try and stick to that rule too, but I find myself weighing in at least twice a week. I am going to start just doing the Monday weigh in though.

    It's been SO HARD not to weigh! My husband got the scale out this morning, and it was very interesting the reaction I had to that. I REALLY wanted to weigh!... but the scale is not my judge. I am. And I KNOW i'm doing great! So I kindly asked him to put it away when he was done. and walked out of the bathroom! One win for me! :happy:

    I have gone through many days like that as well. The important thing is to get back on track and keep positive. Dont let bad day get in the way of the big picture, the big picture is 50 LBS BY JUNE FIRST. You can do it, we all can.

    Stay positive and stay strong!!!!

    Holy crap! I messed up. I'm at -44 on my calories. A lot of day left. I guess I better get busy exercising and exercise me out of this hole:cry:

    Pops is off this w-end so I probably won't be on here. Ya'll have a great w-end and stay on track

    Remember: a slip up is no reason to give up.
