    Love all the new people joining in!! Welcome :smile:

    I'm happy to say I've made it over half way though the day and have logged everything, "the good, the bad, and the ulgy" so to speak. We are going to a friends house for dinner, so we will see how it goes! We tend to drink ... A LOT. So I'm really going to regin it in tonight. Probably be home late tonight so I might not make it back on. Have no fear I will log my food with the help of my smart phone. Love the MFP app. I wish you all a great evening.

    Remember we ALL can do this. One small step at a time!

    Raquel
    What a beautiful name!! A beer drinker? Good Golly, Good Luck!! :-) That will do it!! But You CAN do it!!




    :drinker: SUNDAY NIGHT CHECK-IN :drinker:

    So I did Walk Away The Pounds 1 mile walk today instead of the walk since I got up late. I do hate my neighborhood. So I only do morning walks here.



    Got my week started right anyway'
    Sunday 20 min walk (WATP)

    Journaled my food. Need to go plug & save it all now. I am also gonna look for a before pic, where I was 50 pounds heavier. I am really ugly though. LOL But may motivate me more!! :-)


    Ohhhhhhhhhh I made HEALTHY PIZZA tonight!! It was Fantastic & Filling!! Only thing I would change is finding a WW crust. But this was still doable. Look at my dinner Food Diary if ya wanna check it out!! yum!!

    Enjoy your new healthy minds & bodies!!

    Everyone here is so encouraging and great support!!

    My first weeks goal is to stay under my daily calories. Seems like such a simple goal, but i really struggle with it and give into my sweet tooth too easy :(

    Good luck everyone with week one!

    This is a great lil support group here. Lots of love too. Good luck staying under calories. Not a simple goal at all!! I think before all else, we must get that under control.





    OK have to move it, move it!! Have a GREAT DAY EVERYONE!!

    I'd love to join in on this. short term goals seem to make things easier don't they? And even more so when I have to account for it.
    I've been sleeping late the past couple of weeks and not getting to the gym. My goal 6/12-6/18---hit the gym at least 4 days!

    I did make it to the gym this morning but my legs are hurting so much I didn't get my full workout in. The point is I still went and I still tried!! Right?? Please tell me I'm right!!!
    Waiting to hear from daughter at the hospital right now. We may be welcoming my first grandson today. If so, taking care of the granddaughters may take the place of the gym this week!!

    WOOOOO HOOOOOOO waiting on grandbabies are FUN!! My niece is to have her first any day now as well. You can always get the girls together and have a DANCE PARTY and call it Gym Class!! ;-)

    Sorry your legs are hurting, take smaller & slower steps. And maybe shorten your time. Don't over do it!! Oh yeah, YOU ARE RIGHT!! :-)

    Okay, I am back for a second week as the first week I did this I met and even over achieved some of my goals.

    Struggled last week a bit so am keeping the same goals but adding an extra challenge for myself.

    Goal 1: Stay under my calories 6 out of 7 days of the week.
    Goal 2: Exercise 180 minutes a week (30 minutes 6 days a week).
    Goal 3: Drink 6 glasses of water a day.

    Extra challenge: Work to lower my sugar intake.

    First day: Monday: Under my calories, exercised 30 minutes, drank 6 glasses of water, made sugar goal as sugar was WAY TOO HIGH today.

    Thank you so much Miss Dee :blushing:

    For your pizza.... You should see if you can find Flat Outs. They are a flat bread there is an Italian herb one, they also make whole wheat. 90 cals. Very good makes a pretty good flat bread pizza. I :heart: homemade pizza we make it a lot at my house.


    Sounds like everyone is off to a great start this week! Way to start off strong. Now the key is to keep that going. We can do this!

    Last night (ok it was this morning) I logged in and entered in everything I ate last night. Even dessert. I made an awesome dessert and couldn't resist do I had some and it was really good (if I do say so myself). Best part I feel great about the decision. I had one serving and logged it. I'm a happy girl.


    Today I'm happy to say I brought my lunch and snacks today. Tomorrow I have to take my husband to the train so it's going to be an early start so I planned ahead and I have already gotten tomorrow's lunch ready!!! Now its time to log off!

    Have a good one everybody!

    Welcome! Glad you found us. The support here is the best!
    I know what you mean about the sweet tooth. I recently found chocolate light silk. It's really good nice and chocoately. I drink a glass a day. It's 90 calories for 8 ounces. Helps curb the sweet tooth a little :smile:

    I'm glad you said that! I use unsweetened Silk for my cereal and such and have wanted to try the chocolate but was a little nervous. I'll try it! I'm a chocolate milk freak!!!
