    Okay you guys...I need to STOP going out to eat! With my mom here we ended up grabbing food out more than anything then I did it AGAIN last night! Grrr. I'm never going to reverse this gain if I don't stop it!

    Due to life happening while I was making other plans, I am off to a slow start this week (0/200 minutes) but still plan on making my goal. I know that I will be doing a lot of walking on Saturday, so that will help. Good luck to all with your goals this week!

    So far, so good. I'm still under on calories for today, I've gotten in an hour of walking, and I'm staying away from junk food. Now all I have to do is get cracking on those assignments!

    got another 17 mins playing wii active
    then helped the kids with new nick jr fit for wii they thought it was really funny to make Dora hula hoop and Diego skateboard. So this might be another way to get a little exercise in a fun way with the kids.
    :happy:

    Great JOB!! So happy for you Suz!

    Tuesday check in... Checking in on Wednesday because I didn't log in after bowling. Goal #1 - check
    Goal #2 still doing well. Brought breakfast and lunch to work, and it was a challenge, since the cafeteria at work had my favorite meal they serve (taco salad... YUMMMY). But I was strong and didn't give in, go ME!

    Unfortunately I had a miss-step this morning, I stepped on the scale. After my over indulgent weekend I was up 2 pounds, so I thought I'd see how I am doing so far. Bad idea, I've only lost a half a pound of what I put on. I knew I shouldn't have stepped on the scale. I might need to hide that thing.

    Hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday :happy:

    Wednesday check in on Thursday.
    Doing pretty good with both my goals.
    Though it did take all my will to NOT log on yesterday night. My whole day was thrown off and when it was time to go to sleep I was still full to energy. I can't wait until we have finished the work in the house and life is back to "normal" hehehe as if life is ever normal :smile: But instead my husband and I went and hung out in the hot tub at my parents house for a bit. Not that is the way to end a day!

    As for eating out, so far so good. Through we were close to going out yesterday. We forgot to take some chicken out the freezer for dinner, and it was getting late. In the past we would have just gone and gotten fast food. But I put my whole size 6 foot down and said NO! We are staying here, chicken doesn't take that long to defrost. Guess who won. That's right... this kid right here!!

    Wishing you all a great Thursday. Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday!!!!!

    My daughter became violently ill in the middle of the night last night. Fever, vomiting... it was rough. She seems fine now, 12 hours later and kept down toast, banana and applesauce. The little piglet (okay, honestly, she's a skinny kid so she isn't really a piglet) wants waffles and grapes now! LOL I am allowing her to try a half a waffle and 3 grapes to see if that will stay down too. She's such a champ. My tummy is feeling kinda weird but I'm hoping I'm just psyching myself out.

    I didn't exercise last night because I felt my muscles needed a rest. I will attempt some later, if I don't get sick too!

    Have a good day, friends! SO PROUD of all your accomplishments!!!!

    Looks like I am escaping the sickies! Thank goodness!
    My daughter is almost back to herself, too. Whew!
    I will get in some exercise after she goes to bed. Thank goodness for Comcast On Demand. ;-)

    I made it to the pool today, and swam 1/2 mile! Yeah me! Came home and tried a weight watcher's recipe I found for homemade tomato/spaghetti sauce with half the calories and half the fat of Ragu (and no saturated fat.) Now I have to go get something done around here. By the way, I'm at 105/200.
  • This is a great idea! Since this will be my first week, I'll say Sun-Sat. I'm not sure what kind of weight goal I can set for myself, so I think I'll just say SOME loss in the first week would be awesome. So I guess my goal will be to stick to my calorie allowance according to mfp, and have some loss to show for it. How much loss will be a surprise for all of us, and give me something to base the next week on

    Hi everyone, sorry for the disappearing act. Life, you know. :)

    Since it's already the end of the week, my only goal for this week is to finish it off without crashing and burning. I've been doing good with the unexpected interruption, so...

    Keep up the great work everyone!

    Took the dog for a walk. I think we must be quite a sight, because the cats always follow along. We're just one big happy family! Anyway, I am at 125/200.!

    Friday night family dinner out (Friday night tradition) but I did ok. And I'm logging for now. So I think for the week I've done pretty good with both my goals.

    Have a wonderful night everyone!
