    Somehow dropped even more today! I stepped on and off the scale several times, but it refused to go back up... So, 214.4 it is!

    Way to go! That's great.

    I'm hoping to step on the scale tomorrow morning before I head to work and crossing my fingers that it's gone back down.

    Attitude is a challenge for me.... I am not losing Like I used to in younger years...is harder to get weight off. :ohwell: Also having an issue with MFP not posting my Diary... it appears is because I start it on one day and finish on next day due to working over nights 3 nights a week yet am on 'regular' schedule other 4 days, It is frustrating to not see the correct # days logged nor my diary.:sad: When I 1st started MFP about 1 month ago it was motivating to see these things, so is disappointing to not see them. I guess will just have to find another way to log and hope it will post.
    With all that grumbling said, at least I have lost and not regained. Weighed this AM at 231# :happy:

    Thanks Jess :) I have my fingers crossed for you! I saw a little gain this morning, but I know its just all the pasta I ate last night that hasn't had a chance to digest yet, so I'm not going to worry about it.

    Great job everyone keeping up with this! I didn't do great exercising this weekend..my eating was good, but I was lazy-no excuses-just didn't feel like it to be honest:yawn:

    maeadair-when you log your food, you can put it on a 24 hour period...when you are on the food page, you can hit the arrow back to the previous day..so even though you are on an overnight schedule, you can get it all in on 24 hour period.

    10 jumping jacks and 10 push-ups 3x a day Gotcha!

    Does anyone here watch alot of TV? I know the commercial breaks can be kinda long, but my son and I used to do crunches thru the commercials... maybe we could start with one commercial per break? Who's with me?

    I'm definitely on board with the push-ups and jumping jacks....will do those at work tonight when everyone goes to bed.

    I'll try to do the crunches, but I'm so bad at those that I'll have to really push myself to get those done.

    The t.v. is usually on when I get to work, so I'm thinking I'll do a few different things during commercials just to push myself. I really do need to push myself to do more ab work.

    Yes I had to. I have one month from today that I will be having foot surgery. I'm trying to drop at least 5 or 6lbs before that since I won't be able to do much cardio. Make sure you keep me up to date when it's time for January's challenge.

    Hello everyone,

    My weight on Dec 1 was 193
    My weight on Dec 7 is 192.8
    A small loss but it is in the right direction. My calorie goal is 1500 (to lose 1 pound a week) and I did average 1507 for the week but I only worked out twice. I know I really have to work out more.
