    @msamcoates-- :] Thanks for adding me ! I'm glad you changed your mind. Hopefully you fit in some fitness time & enjoyed yourself at the party.~ I think you deserve it !

    Day Sixteen. I'm almost late, lol. :P
    Today was my mom's birthday, & I didn't have a solid meal today. Just junk food.
    I feel kinda bad, & I know I'm not gonna be able to eat right 'til next week.
    I'm trying, though.
    Next week's weigh-in will be a disaster.

    I want to join this challenge!

    Name: Chantal
    SW:309.8
    Goal for 100 days: to lose 40 lbs (269.8)
    Other goal: To have more energy and be motivated all the time! Manage everyday stress...
    My motivation: ME!!!:tongue: This time it's all about ME! I'm worth it! I want to be healthy!:happy:

    Good morning!

    Just wanted to post an update...

    I had to change scale two weeks ago since mine was defective. It was 9 pounds less that what I actually am.(big big disappointment) at my mom and at the clinic... So my starting weight for this challenge was 318.8 and my today's weight is 312.2 so I have lost 6.6 lbs so far. So sorry for all this mixup. I'm doing another challenge on here and I'm still using my old numbers but it's so confusing. Since this one is just starting, I wanted to post my real numbers. That will change my goal weight to 278.8.

    I've been doing good with the eating but not so much with the exercise. At least I'm moving since I'm working alot around the house. I've been painting, cleaning, moving furniture around... That's probably why I lost the weight.

    I want to wish you all a MeRrY ChRiStMaS!!!!

    Day Seventeen !

    First I'd like to say congrats to ChantalC1969 for losing some pounds despite a minor setback. (: Great job.

    Christmas Eve has not been kind to me (food-wise). I've had tons of chocolate & started on an early Christmas dinner. Eek. I'm under my intake (just barely) but I'm afraid I'm def gonna eat later on this evening. I guess some exercise is in order.

    :( I never feel like it, though. Well.

    Happy Holidays !

    Day 18!

    Merry Christmas to everyone, eating wise prep for the holidays has been enjoyed and I've been off track, but enjoying the time with ny family. Another reminder of why I'm trying so had to keep losing weight, we took family pics today for Christmas and I feel like I look like a whale in most of them. Not a good feeling or a good look. Back on track tomorrow though and will continue doing what I started out to do weightwise

    Hello everyone,

    This weekend has been a bust as far as food and drinks are concerned. I over did all of it. I wrote a blog as well. Tomorrow is a new day. I'm praying for strength and wisdom.

    Merry Christmas all!!

    Day Eighteen. :)

    Merry Christmas, though it's practically over.
    I ate so-so today. I think I went over, but not by a whole lot.
    Surprising, for it to be Christmas & all.

    Not much else to say...
    hope everyone's doing well.

    Its Monday, so back on track for the most part. I gained 3lbs over the weekend and I wasn't at all shocked. Now I have to work even harder to get them off.

    Goals - Patience and understanding.
    Do not overeat this week and get back on track.

    Have a great Monday everyone!

    I'm not sure what I'm suppose to do but I joined this challenge at the beginning when you started it. I gave you my start weight but I can't remember what it was, I'm 297 now. Please help me if you can I would love to be still included in this challenge, just don't know what to do?Thanks so much.

    This week's weigh-in had me down 3 pounds! Whoo! But for some reason, when I stepped on the scale today (just to check) I've gained a pound. I know, I know. Water weight, sodium, daily fluctuations, but it just can't be. It only happens every other week, and daily fluctuations are NOT normal for me. I have no idea what's going on!

    Challenge Starting Weight: 197
    Current weight: 188.4

    I looked back at previous posts, and your starting weight was 308. Great job! You're supposed to check back in several times during the 100 days, and tell us how you're doing! :)

    Day Twenty-Five (me thinks?).

    :) Hey, homeskillets !
    Hope your holidays was amazing.
    Checking in with a new weight--I lost 3 pounds, now leaving me at 248 (out of the 250s! hooray!).
    I am so excited to get back on track. I may actually meet my goal, but I'm unsure. My birthday is now 4 weeks away, & I have 9 pounds to go. I really hope I can do it.
    & even so, I'll still get myself that tattoo. ;D (read: my profile for my goals)
    I'm going to start making weekly goals for myself, but I won't start until I'm able to exercise like I want to.
    For now, I'm relaxing & enjoying the last couple of days of relaxation before the new semester takes over.

    Day Twenty-Six. (:

    I'm sick ! My throat is killing me, & I feel like not doing a thing. My entire family has colds, & now I've finally got it.
    I'm going to nurse it today so I'll be somewhat better before school starts.
    Today's mini-goal involves keeping track of my food--something I haven't really done in a couple of weeks.

    Have a super Sunday !

    I'm still in, Day 26. With the holidays and all, not doing as well as planned.
    Starting weight 218.4, current weight 213.8. 5lbs in 25 days. Oh well.

    75days and 30lbs to go...we'll see.
    Goal for the next 2weeks, lower my carb intake. I eat about 230g now, I'm
    going to lower that to 150g.

    Also MFP puts my cal intake at 1,720. I'm going to lower that to 1,500
    because according to my BodyMedia I burn less than MFP estimates.

    Onward and downward guys!

    Day 26

    First belated Happy New Year everyone and to everyone still in the challenge Congrats to you for making it this far!
    I hate to say it but the holidays did me in in the worst way and I'm up 5 lbs from where I started the challenge at. :(

    But I enjoyed all the time with my family and now that they are over its time to get back to being on track and getting these pounds off for goods.

    With the remaining 74 days left, I have to revamp my goals a little.

    Originally I wanted to lose 50 lbs in 100 days, now its 60lbs, the 5 I gained back and an extra 5 to really push myself.

    Hope everyone is still doing great!

    Day Twenty-Seven !

    My last day of freedom before I'm back to work & finally--back to school.
    I just ate this frozen pizza...cost me like 7oo calories for today, but it was worth it. D:
    I'm hoping not to go over. I'm going to have smaller, healthier snacks throughout the rest of the day,
    followed by a dinner of hearty protein.
    I messed up my weigh-in day, so I won't weigh in this Wednesday--but next. Just so I can get back on track on what I started here.
    I'll weigh myself this coming Wednesday for fun, though. ;D
    Uhm.
    Today's goal...don't eat too much !
    Have a marvelous Monday~

    Hi All, and Happy New Year!!

    The holidays put a hurting on me as well. I gained ... and Sunday my weigh in was 154. Today I went to boot camp and nearly died. I couldn't even finish the workout ...sigh I'm back to logging in everything and strictly water.

    My goals - Stay under my calorie level.
    Other goals - Be a better, mother, girlfriend, friend.

    Have a great Monday Ladies!

    I am so tired, I actually like having a butt, but I need more energy to keep up with my kids, and since when do I get tired
    from lifting my arms up to long? There is something wrong with that.

    To get my pre-baby body back, I'm only five feet tall and I look like a pear.

    Hey everybody!

    Day Thirty Right .....

    Well yesterday was actually good, I went to boot camp and ate relatively good even though I wanted to pig out.

    Today, my muscles need to rest so I'm trying to figure out exactly "how" to eat today .... I'll probably have 10 cups of water rather than 8 but I need to figure out my meals.

    Goals - Stay within 1400 - 1500 calories and patience patience patience.

    Have a good day everyone!

    Day 30!!!!


    Yay and congrats to everyone who made it this far!!!

    My weight is stabilizing and I'm losing some of the holiday gain, so I'm happy on that note, enjoying the last few days before my fiance goes back to school :( Since his college is 3 hours away I won't get the chance to see him for at least 6 weeks. Sad about that but its a great chance to take some time and focus on myself since I've been eating like a pig and being lazy since he got home a month ago.

    Tomorrow is our 3 year anniversary so I know we will be going out for dinner, I don't plan to start back counting calories until next Monday when I start the Hollywood trainer 21 day plan to get my butt back on track.

    70 days left in the challenge and I'm ready to get back to making progress :)

    Day 31!

    Happy Friday everyone .... Today is my cheat day ...whoooo hooooo, even though I know I shouldn't cheat but goodness I'm craving as well.

    I did workout this morning to kind of counteract the junk I will be eating today. I also plan on doing cardio in the morning and eating low-carb clean tomorrow.

    Goal - Get more than 8 glasses of water in today.
