    Thanks Beth for those kind worde. Is your dad on MFP? He could join our group here. I think it is wonderful how you are working together.

    You're very welcome, you deserve it :) My dad is computer illiterate beyond freecell lol. Just today he had to get me to type and send and email for him lol. Althought the amount of time I spend asking my dad questions about things on here (he's always lifted weights and is a nurse) he might as well be part of this. When I cook healthy meals I always get both of my parents to at least try it and so far they've loved everything--I get a huge kick out of telling them how few calories are in each serving lol.
    Oh and 10 min left on my 200 min exercise goal yay!

    Mak, maybe try upping your water a little to offset the sodium? It looks like you made some great choices. Definitely nothing to be ashamed of. If you have to eat out, that's a great way to do it. Maybe the weekend will calm down. Also, a massage or nice quiet, romantic night might be a good alternative for your hubby's desire for fast food. ;)


    Thanks for the ideas. I have been trying to get more water in like u suggested. Tomorrow is weigh in day so we shall see if I succeeded.

    I see in your signature once u hit your goal u are going to join the USAF. My brother is in the Air Force :)

    Quick check-in:
    115/150 - I will get those last 35 mins in today!
    The scale has been stuck the last 2 days so I'm still 4/5 lbs lost... but I am okay with that! I didn't make good choices and didn't drink enough water to balance the sodium. I've also STILL had TOM (this seems never ending this week!!!)

    I've been MIA due to it being crazy at work, volunteering at two of my daughter's school functions this week... and then she had her physical and received four shots yesterday afternoon. She always gets a high fever after her shots and last night was no exception and brutal. She was feverish and feeling ill, in my bed, so I'm working on very little sleep today .

    You guys are doing so well. I am so HAPPY & PROUD of all your efforts & successes!!

    You guys keep me motivated!!

    Most of you know that my week was a double chalenge. I changed my goal mid week to just stay within my calories since I hurt myself. So far, so good. The day is not over, but my hopes are HIGH!! :-)

    I had a small gain this week but is understandable. Since I hurt my tailbone mid week I have been inactive. No exercise, but no work either. No walking the school halls. Pretty much bedfast. I saw the doc yesterday. I will slowly reinstate my daily activities & include light exercise this week. Not gonna cry about it since I know my food diary was good all week.


    Thank you all for your kind words of healing. I am a tough gal.

    I was a single mom and raised 3 daughters totally alone.(with God's help) Worked 2 jobs and put all three through college. I am a proud grandma of soon to be 11 grandkids (they all call me Oma(Dutch))

    I am in my 10th year of the best marriage ever!! I wake up every morning to a cup of fresh coffee at my bedside, that I did not make. :-)

    Life has always been a struggle but my life has always been a happy one!! I am very Blessed!!

    (((((HUGGS TO ALL)))))

    So I was a bad bad girl and ate candy after I submitted my diary yesterday. This makes me mad at me but....I'm DOWN TO 250! Holy moly! I was thinking I'd get to this point around mid-April...AND I'M HERE!

    Thank you to all of you for all your support. I don't think I'd be here without you all!!

    I LOVE reading all of the successes!!! WTG everyone - I am SO PROUD of you all!!!

    And for those who are feeling down, discouraged, etc... I have had the same type of week. Tomorrow is the beginning of a new week and our slates are clean! We will make new goals and we will try harder to reach them!!! :happy:

    It's 6:30pm and my poor, ill daughter is already in bed... and I am battling some lower stomach issues. I've been running non-stop to the bathroom for the past 2 hours. Maybe it was the fast food yesterday or maybe it's some kind of bug but I am in agony! So I am off to read in bed and fall asleep early.

    Here's to Sunday and the start of a new week tomorrow! :flowerforyou:

    Well a long walk and some cleaning later and I'm sweaty and gross and feeling REALLY accomplished. There's so much more to do but at least it's started! That means that more will happen tonight and tomorrow!

    I hope that you all are having a good day!

    I'm a little late on the final check-in, but yesterday I was away from MFP all day.

    I DID IT! I ran for 5 minutes and probably could have gone a little longer. I was afraid I wasn't going to make it earlier this week, so I'm SUPER proud. CONGRATS to everyone who made their goals, and don't fret those who didn't! Today starts a new week!!
  • Ok, I'm in this week...my goal is to reach my goal of 225 minutes of exercise this week..that will be on an average of 5 days this week at least 45 minutes per day...I could do more, I have plenty of time now that I am working from home, but trying to stay on my work schedule, so that I can get off early...I also need to stay within my calories without the extra I get for the exercise....

    I think I need to preplan for my meals, as I am having a real issue with my sodium.
