    I feel pretty down today. Kinda weepy:cry: I'm not sure why. I'm struggling with eating but it has never really bothered me like this before. I usually have a positive outlook. It is one of those days I wish I was at home on the couch.

    Send me a smile because I really need it.

    Awww, I wish I could give you a real hug!!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Heres a dozen flowers. I hope you feel better soon. Hang in there. YOU can DO THIS!!!

    Hi everyone. Hope you're all doing well in this brand new year. I find that my challenge is in the evenings, I find myself getting hungry ... and the hungry/sleepy combination isn't good. I'm heading back to the gym after a bit of a break from it ... that should keep me occupied. Have a great day.

    Thats my problem too. I get insane cravings for everything in site. I feel great the next day though when avoiding the late night snacks and it honestly makes a difference come weigh in time.

    I turn 40 on sunday, and while i won't make my goal of "healthy by 40" (bmi in healthy range = 174lbs or less) I am very happy that i seem to have rebounded fully from christmas and am looking forward to posting a good # on monday! My first weigh-in as a FORTY YEAR OLD! Yeeehaw! LOL! ... I did a mid-week weigh in and was down 1 lb (to 178.0) which not only erases all of my christmas gain (finally) but inches another 0.5 lbs closer to goal... I don't count my mid-week weigh in for this challenge though, so really looking forward to monday!........... I will eat a piece of cake for you all, so no need to bother doing it on my behalf ;) lol

    40? You look like you are 28 in your picture. Happy Birthday. Looking sexy!!!!:smile:

    An idea someone gave me once that got me out of a stall was to completely change my diet. I literally went and bought food I'd never eaten and tried 14 days worth of new recipes and food. It worked like a charm!

    Great idea Bainos! February 5th is a 4-mile race for me and it will be my longest to-date (and hilly and oh, did i mention i am in upstate new york = snow/ice/cold?) So while i am working on training hard/smart for that goal, i will be also working on dropping 1 lb a week, hopefully more. So thats 6 lbs by valentines, but hopefully more. I am not going to set my goat too high because i think i will be gaining muscle but also because i will be crossing over into the HEALTHY bmi range in only 4 lbs, so 6 puts me INTO that range for the first time since i was, oh, like 20? :P I know my losses are not going to be huge and fast... I am really concentrating on sustaining a slow weight loss while kicking up my fitness level. .... I WISH i could drop like 15 lbs by then but short of amputating a body part, that aint gonna happen lol

    :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: Happy Valentines Day Mini-Challenge everyone! :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart:

    I love the idea of a mini goal.....I'm setting mine at 10lbs. Considering the fact that I have not been doing well on here, it's going to be tough. I really need a good kick-start to get me motivated.

    just a thought: ****ing your pants might help... just remember to remove them before you step on the scale :laugh:

    Hi everyone: It's Friday thank goodness. It was really hard coming back to work after the holidays. I've been doing okay in comparison to the holidays but I really do have to start cracking a whip under my butt and take this more seriously. I'm so sluggish and sleepy lately ... not enough exercising for sure. That's my goal. I want to do something every day (exercise class, exercise dvd, wii fit or Zumba game, geocaching, hiking, walking, swimming). Seriously, I love all of these things. Surely I can do one of them every day right?
