    Well I didn't feel awesome with my gain yesterday, but everyone else is awesome!! I will have to use you all as motivation.

    Goals for the week:
    - Cheating needs to be in moderation. I tend to go overboard on my cheats, and I think this is hindering me.
    - 10+ glasses of water a day
    - Reduce bread/pasta/rice. This is another thing I go overboard with.

    Amazing losses this week, girls.

    Goals this week:
    Make sure I get at least 30g of fiber or more a day.
    Get in at least 30-45 minutes of exercise 5 days this week
    Weigh myself only twice a day (once at night and once in the morning) as opposed to the 4-5 times a day I've been doing.
    Get at least 8 hours of sleep a night.
    Continue drinking 12-14 cups of water a day.

    GREAT JOB LADIES!!

    I feel like I need to start writing out my goals on here so I can be more accountable. I finally went grocery shopping after playing around eating out for about a week and a half and I need to settle down!

    Goals:
    1. work on drinking enough water... still never thirsty. Bought a liter of water on the way to work :-)
    2. start C25K this week
    3. Cook and eat at home!
    4. Fight the urge to get complacent- I am back around the lowest weight I've been in adulthood, and last time I got here I was like "meh, this is good enough". Trying SOOO hard not to do that this time but I feel like I'm slacking!

    Ok, I feel better already! Will post this week's weight tomorrow when I weigh in. I can't believe some of you girls weigh in every day or more! I couldn't do that, I'd be beyond crazy!!!

    Hello Pin-Up Girls!

    I'm back from a 3 month MFP absence (the school semester from HELL). This is one of my favorite groups in the MFP Community and I'd love to jump back in. You all are so inspiring and awesome!

    Here are my goals for the week:
    C25K program MWF
    Circuit training TR
    Staying under 1300 cal each day (this is above my daily allotted amount, but it's much better than I've been lately)
    No alcohol/fast food

    Let's do this!

    Wow, those numbers are very impressive. Well done everyone!! I aim to keep up my exercise until the end of the week (am flying home for the weekend so I won't get a chance to exercise. Gonna count the dancing on Saturday night me thinks :D). I need to start getting more sleep, eat regularly and definately TRY to eat breakfast in the morning! Here's to another great week

    High fives all around, guys. There be some impressive numbers up there!

    So far I'm doing great on my goal of putting 30 miles on the treadmill this week - I got over 5 in yesterday & plan to hit it again as soon as I get home! Hope everyone else is on track, too! :)

    I'm just a day behind on everything! Please forgive my tardiness.
    Last week: 179
    This week: 178

    Not much of a loss, but at least it's not a gain!

    Cook and eat at home is a good one! I really need to focus on that. I feel so much better when I do that, and I definitely see the difference on the scale.

    I'm in my jeans from the "do not fit" pile!! Woo hoo! It was sort of a fluke, all my laundry is dirty so I grabbed a pair from the "do not fit" pile to see how bad they would be, and I will be damned if they didn't fit. This happened Saturday, and I have been wearing them ever since. I'm scared to wash them, because, I am afraid they suddenly won't fit any more. Isn't that silly?

    my goal this week is to get back on a schedule. I have been crazy hectic and am not eating nearly enough (lucky if I'm getting two meals a day). And absolutely no time for working out. I will get back to my walks!!!!

    On a side note, I'm scared there wont be much of a loss this week, not for anything I'm going to do wrong, it's just that I am so close to my mini goal of being in the 140's I feel like it's going to take longer just to torture me lol... I know I shouldn't think that way but i do :P

    I'm regreting eating that ice cream I just had. Once I was done with it I realized it wasn't worth it... the ice cream is a lie, the ice cream is a lie..

    Congrats on all the NSV's so far this week!

    My only goal for the week is to do what I can. My son & I have both been pretty sick (he still is, I'm almost over it) so I'm not eating much and working out really isn't happening. I will get to leave the house today though! :huh: Woo hoo for dr's appt's...

    Good luck all!

    Awww I hope you all feel better.

    How is everyone else today? I'm feeling super guilty for last night's dinner. We had a hectic evening with my son's doctor appointment, so didn't get home til late. Hubby wanted wings so that's what we had...and I had too many. Ugh ugh ugh. I hate that I go overboard. I made my diary public today to hopefully hold me more accountable for what I'm eating.

    Weigh in: 175.5... I GAINED A POUND BACK! Aww maaaaan. After looking at how abysmal last week was though (and the week before that, not gonna lie), I have no one to blame but myself. Two parties with lots of alcohol and snacks was NOT the best idea. I haven't gained back anything since I've started this journey, so I admit I'm pretty upset. It's funny b/c when I see you girls, some of you fluctuating more than others, I'm like well it's great y'all are still so dedicated and I'm still so proud of y'all but today I weigh in and I'm... EMBARRASSED.

    GOTS TO DO BETTER!

    On a brighter note, I started C25K this morning and I am extremely surprised I wasn't keeled over at the end! On the last running interval I actually went over 5 seconds before I even looked down-- I'm not used to being able to run a full minute with out the heavy breathing starting. Just want to keep pushing myself.

    PS- I just realized how many times I used "y'all" in this post... oh well, now y'all know just how Texan I am lol. I had to stop myself from using the phrase "back in the saddle" hahaha...

    I guess I've been focused on exercising and sending in my weight, that I did not even realize that every week there is a different site to go to to post your weigh...such a slacker...and, where is this chart that you, Rach, put everyone's weight loss and stuff..I have not seen it...am I missing something?

    I know it's Wed already, but I did send in my weight to Rach already, but I will post it here too...lost 3 pounds last week and my CW is 153 :-)

    Keep up the great work everyone!! :-)
