    Great job this week Ladies!! You're all such great inspirations!

    My goals this week:

    1. Log it, log it, log it!! Everything!!
    2. Exercise. No excuses.
    3. Water, Water, Water!!
    4. Stop getting take out! Cook more. Less coffee!
    5. Log over the weekend!

    I'm not sure what's going on with me this week. I'm up 2 lbs, and I'm usually down by this time of the week. ???? No idea what's going on with my body. My sodiums been high, and I could probably be drinking more water than I am because of the sodium, but still don't get the scale. It hates me. Anyways. Still feeling pretty fantastic overall - don't feel bloated, clothes are fitting better this year than they did last year, got some smaller sizes over the weekend. So, that's all good. If only the scale would become my friend!!

    I swear, cutting down my carbs is making my gained-back weight fall off like nothing. I haven't even exercised the past two days and lost 2 pounds o.O Hoping that by tomorrow I'll be back at 139 and can feel like I'm making real progress again! No exercise today though.. I have a bladder infection and it's hard enough to breath without wanting to cry in pain :(

    What kinds of foods are you eating that are low carb ... I am trying to add some more low carb foods to my diet. Thanks

    I'm not really eating anything low carb, I just stopped eating toast for breakfast and a sandwich for lunch and replaced with with yogurt and carrots and such. I've still been eating fruit and veggies and not really *worrying* about carbs, just taking away the bread.

    I did another 1 hour elliptical session tonight at the gym! I really need to keep this going! I did good yesterday and today with tracking my food, working out and being under my calories, like way under!

    So, just a question, do you want your net calorie intake to be at a certain amount or does it matter? I've been working out so hard at the gym that I have had a negative amount of net calories, is that good or bad? Don't know what to do....do I need to have a positive of 1200 calories so my body doesn't go into starvation mode or since I'm eating but burning it off it's ok?

    Thanks in advance!

    Great job this week ladies! My son starts his baseball tournaments (every weekend until mid July) and I am kind of worried. But I can do it...I have to do it. I am going to attempt to take really healthy snacks and stay away from all of the junk people bring.

    Goals:
    Workout 5-6 times this week
    Up my water
    Watch my sodium
    Less food from places other than home
    2lb lost! :happy: :happy: :happy:

    On a side note, I am part of the Canyon County weight loss challenge in Idaho and I was told by one of my instructors (who checks in frequently) that I am the highest % weight loss for a woman she has heard about. :bigsmile: There is money involved so yeah! But I really need to push hard! This challenge ends on July 16 and I would LOVE to lose another 10-15lb. Here's to hoping and doing my best!!! :wink:

    It's dreadfully hot up here and the ac is broken, so last night I took DD to the Y. She played in the kids area and I did 35 min on the treadmill. I'm not a runner so the two segments of running for 6 minutes straight were a HUGE accomplishment for me. :) Today I'm waiting for the AC guy (another one) just came back from my MRI and working.

    I want my net calories to be no more than 1400. I tend not to eat my exercise calories unless I'm really hungry. If I'm not hungry, I don't eat extra.
