    Hope you have a great day, too! I can't wait to see your results from your weigh-in tomorrow! :) Seems like the weeks last much longer when you're trying to lose weight! Good luck tomorrow! Let us know! :)

    Thanks for the Add :)

    I just wanna say that I am in the UK, so my comments may come at random times for you peeps! lol

    It's great to see people with such determination. It really makes me wanna jump in and do the excercise too. Also I have found I seem to be hooked on the calorie counter! I have a menu plan to try any help schedule my meals and cook decent food for my husband at the same time as he doesn't like salads or vegetables or anything you could class as healthy. And he weighs nothing which is very annoying!

    Off to do some excercise, have fun!

    Good morning everybody! Hello and welcome to all of the new folk. I must confess I did not exercise yesterday. But I did stay under (by 29) my calorie goal for the day. I love how it tells me when I am under that I may go into starvation mode but when I went over by 4 earlier this week it told me I may not get the results I want if I go over my calorie goal. I thought to myself "It's 4 freakin' calories". But I suppose that it would start out with 4 then creep up to 40 then next thing it would be 400 and I would be on my way to gaining weight. Okay, okay it is a good reminder then.

    I am planning a weekend with lots of exercise and healthy eating. There are only 3 more weigh ins for my Biggest Loser contest at work and I heard grumbling from my co-workers that they are not going to let me win any more weeks. Hah! I say. I will show them how it's done.

    Today lets work on our triceps muscles. You know the ones, they are right there under our chicken wings on our arm. I hate that wiggly skin on the back of my arm. So, at some point today take a light dumbell (if you don't have one use a can of soup or a bottle of water) in one hand, raise your arm above your head with a straight elbow, bend your elbow 90 degrees so that your hand is by your ear then straighten it, repeat several times. Then switch hands. You can do it.

    Happy losing,
    Staci

    Hello Everyone,

    I am so glad I found this discussion board. I have 100+ lbs to lose but I am trying to dwell on the amount so much. I started in September but only really got serious the first of the year. 2011 is my year!!!

    Would love to have online friends for support. Good to know I am not alone in this journey.

    Hello everyone! I'm 27 years old and looking to lose about 110lbs. I've already lost 21 but I've still got a long way to go! Makes me feel better to know I'm not alone in doing this!

    Good luck!! I hope you can do it before 30 because once you hit 30 and each year after (in my experience) it gets harder to lose.

    You will get there!! Just take it one day at a time and set small goals instead of looking at the total number. I hope you can find the encouragement and support you need here to help you reach your goal

    I exercise about 4 times a week, but I'm trying to get in more. I seem to lose the most when I increase my water intake. I try to shoot for 120 oz a day (I know that's a lot, but it really helps with my energy level and really helps increase my metabolism!). Good luck with your journey! You're gonna do great! :)
