    So my daughter gives me a big hug this morning and said, "Mommy, my hands can touch now!" I never realized before, but when she hugged me around my waist, she couldn't touch her hands together. Out of the mouths of babes! Talk about a motivator!

    Ok, I weighed in today. Not sure if I should count it for this week's weigh in or next week's. I'm down 2.6 pounds!

    My goal for this week to get to the gym a total of four times. I've been getting there three times but I want to add an extra day.

    My goal for my daughter is to have her want to spend time with me.

    I am so in!! My mother in law is coming up that weekend, and she hasn't seen me since before i started dieting... so that extra ten pounds will add that extra wow factor. This week's goal is to maintain calorie shifting. so we will see how that goes.

    SW: 205.6
    CGW:195.6 (ps! this will be the lowest weight i have ever seen on the scale since before i got preggers 5 years ago!)

    I want to try this also.. My current weight is 155 so ten lbs would be great. Is there a plan we're following?

    How's everyone doing? I'm not a morning person by any stretch of the imagination, but I've been working out every morning for the past 3 mornings. (Small victory here!) I found that if I waited until after work, it was too easy to not do it, and then if I have the urge to in the evening, it's a bonus! Now I have to keep it up for the rest of the week!

    today is a horrible day. Ive been spending all my time with the pump in the backyard trying to keep the flooding at a minimum. oh, I giggle when people think california is sunny and warm year round. lol now I have to adjust my cals cause I just had to have hot chocolate when I came in. I was soaking wet. I also chased my garbage cans down the street. its been fun

    Ok, weighing in. Down to 149.6! That's 1 lb! Doing a workout everyday has helped. Not sure what to do for next week. Maybe do a little more? If I do an exercise in the morning I'll try to do something in the evening too, at least 3-4 times this week.

    I would love to join this!! Being down 10 by Mothers day would be FABLIZ!

    my goal for this week is to get at least 30 min of walking in 5 times.

    my momma goal is to be more patient! ( patiant? those confuse me...lol)

    how does the bump thing work do you just type those words in or is there something else that needs to be done to follow the thread?

    SO its monday......my starting weight last week was 176.1 and when i weighed in was 175.5 so im down .6..better than nothing i guess!

    my goal was no diet soda but that didnt work out....i dont know what to do for this week, i hutr my hip flexor last sunday and didnt realize how bad until saturday so i cant gym as much as i would like since i need it to heal...so i guess my goal will be to not go over my calories at all, which will be hard since iw ont have the exercise calories to eat back.
