    Good Morning everyone!! Welcome to the all the new people. I still am not feeling the greatest today. However, I am going to try to get in some walking today. I didn't do anything yesterday. I don't think I am going to meet the challenge this week, but that's okay. I will try again.

    Good morning everyone!

    Laura- Glad to hear that you are feeling a little better today. It is definitely harder to focus on nutrition & exercise when you aren't feeling well.

    Merryxmas- great job on almost getting all of your exercise challenge done and its only Thursday.

    To everyone new- Welcome! So glad to have you. Together we can do this.

    I have to confess I am a big one for preaching only weigh once a week and I got on the scale this morning (midweek) and was disappointed :grumble: because it hadn't moved. I am trying not to let it affect my day and attitude. I mean really! Two people have told me this week that I look thinner and I feel good, so why should I let that darn number on the scale get to me?! Okay, maybe I need a swift kick in the booty. Just tell me "Stac (you can call me that), enough of the complaining. Pull your self up by the seat of the pants and focus on what you can do today."

    I'll check in later.

    Happy losing,
    Staci

    Staci, thanks. I am not feeling the best still and therefore I took today off from tracking my food and exercise for today but will be right back to it tomorrow.

    That is the key.....to just stick with it. Don't give up when you don't track or have a splurge, you just pick it right back up.

    Good Morning Everyone!! I got my daughter Anna Grace off to school and now I am home with Jacob. I am going to try to fix my bike but if I can't I will do some kind of exercise. I am right back on it today and for that I am proud b/c I know what to do and I know that I can do it.

    Happy Friday my Fantastic Fitness Friends.

    Laura- I am glad you are feeling better. I'll pray that you can fix your bike.

    I have just committed to starting a team for a Relay forLife event in June. I am a little nervous as it is my first time doing this event and also taking it on as a team captain. However I am not new to participating in walking type cancer events (I have walked the breast cancer 3 day twice. I figure if I can go 60 miles in a weekend then surely I can go with a relay team for 24 hours right!?:huh:
    My daughter convinced my hubby to do it with us and my older son and his girlfriend say that they will as well. My biggest surprise is that last night my mom said she would too. She said she may not be able to walk her whole shift at once but she would do her best. My Hubby and I told her that we will take over for her if she can't make it or just needs a break. I am so looking forward to this. I am so excited about it.

    So, its time for me to get off my fanny and either head to the gym or start cleaning my messy house.

    Have a great day and happy losing,
    Staci

    Thanks Staci. Well, I was not able to fix my bike so I guess I will be getting a new one next month. UGH, I hate that but I do have lots of exercise DVD's and it's going to be getting warmer here so I can get outside and go walking. I just hope and pray that we don't get any more snow Monday and Tuesday. The 8 inches we got are all gone now and I don't want any more. We couldn't get out of our driveway for 2 days. My hubby had to ride to his job with my dad. We are going to take our kids to the park this afternoon if my daughter was good in school and doesn't get a note sent home today. I am going to run and play with my kids if we get to go.

    Good Morning everyone!! I am so sore from my exercise yesterday. I walked for 66 minutes and burned 353 calories. So this weekend I may not be doing anything. I will be right back to it Monday though if I don't do any exercise. Who knows though, we are going to take the kids to the park this afternoon maybe and so I might get some walking in there. I hate that my bike is tore up and I can't wait to get another one. I hope you all have a great day!!

    Hi! You are all inspiring me SO MUCH! I lost 100 lbs. 10 years ago. For the most part, I have kept it off but these 10-15 lbs. keep sneaking back up on me. I am determined to not let them continue to grow. It's not easy, but so worth it. I want to encourage each and every one of you has 100 lbs. to go....If I can do it, you can do it. 11 years ago I was a two pack a day smoker, couch potato. With determination, a will of steel and some encouragement I accomplished many great things.

    Thanks for being here you guys and hats off to you.....

    Hey,
    My name is Andrea. I have always had a weight problem. ... Due to anorexia in junior high till i was 22 i lost a gross amount of weight.... was very unhealthy. My mother got sick with cancer, I broke free from addiction and was pregnant with my first child @ 23...... and for the next 3 years i ate well now 5yrs.... I gained 100 lbs in my pregnancy and lost 30 of it after the baby. but now i am back to my full preg weight. I have 3 herniated disks in my back that make it very hard to workout without pain. but i have to lose weight if i want to have another child......and to be useful around the house agian and to be pain free. well less pain. so im in the struggle club. this web site looks pretty promising. be my friend and we can keep at eachother to stay on task. i hope they make this for the bb phone soon. so much harder to boot the laptop and track. gotta get a note book...... then enter. <3 thanks for your post.
