Rock Star Weight Loss Challenge Week 4 (Already in Progress)

beccala18

mandijo- I say just keep eating the veggies in large (extra large!) quantities. Then, even if you go over, it will be with nutritious things. Or try eating more protein, that might keep you full longer. Or try air popped popcorn - not bad calorie wise, but it always fills me up because it takes up so much room in my stomach! Keep trying, it will get better!!!

Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid

Thanks, Captain! Way to motivate.

madijo-- try uping your fiber and decreasing your fat and sodium. Fiber helps us stay fuller, longer. Goo things are...kashi go lean fiber twigs and puffed rice, natural rolled oats, greek yogurt, etc! Vegetables are good, but are not always filling. Especially if youre eating a lot of lettuce, which is mainly water. Your fiber should be about double what they say it should be on MFP.

Thanks Becca and humblemonkey--I need to find filling snacks. and keep them with me. Any ideas for on the go snacks that I can keep with me?

I I'm Daffy Duck effin' crazy anyway! I will be here for all of you for support if you need me. And if anyone needs to contact me, send me an email, I will get back to you! If you end up falling off of the wagon and getting dragged for several miles under it this weekend, I will tell you to get up, dust yourself off and move forward. And then I may make fart sounds or tell a dik joke. We will have to see....

Love to you all!! Keep fighting the good fight. You are ALL rock Stars!

Could you PLEASE make fart sounds for me- laughing burns calories right?

Awww... sniffle sniffle.. I am choklng back the tears.. I a promised myself I wouldn't cry... whoaaaa OK.. I am composed now.

Thank you Tami. You are absolutley wonderful yourself. I love you guys like a fat kid loves cake! I can always count on you three to be there for me with a helping hand, kind word, term of endearment or a good laugh. Funny how four people spanning from new NY to Louisiana, through Texas and all the way to Cali can all come together like we all live in the same neighborhood.

I love this challenge, all of the MFP community, the Rockstars here, along with Team DMB, and I thank each and everyone of you for the wondeful support and knowledge you all bring to this site.

Checking in for the 2nd string of team DMB tonight. i'm posting the weigh in early in the morning but will have little time then.....out of state wedding weekend means spending time with the 200++++ each family members, sigh for the *diet*. But i'm more dreading being around family who smoke. i quit 2 months ago...but this will be the first time i have been around smokers since. Quite honestly, i'm thinking of staying home, my dH (my rock-who cannot go), thinks i will be ok though.

Actually, i think i might get at least even on this weigh in instead of a gain if the prelim counts . Not expecting a loss, but i changed the exercise this week and the scale stopped going up anyway.

awwww...if the storms whisk me away tonight however, Im going to blame you guys for pushing me to lose weight-- i mean...any extra pound that could help hold me to the ground might be beneficial at this point since theyre calling for 70mph winds!!!!! and im home alone for the night ( Gonna do some online class stuff then go to bed!! Hope everyone has had/is having a good week and that those of you who weigh in saturday have a smile on when you see that number!! Im sure ill be on tomorrow. unless, as i said- i get taken in the storm.
