    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!!!

    From one die hard chocoholic it is fantastic!! Let me know if you do try it and what you think.

    Great job today everyone!
    Did pretty good today brought in most of my lunch and all if my snacks. I haven't gotten to the grocery store yet so I was a little light on protein for my lunch. So I got a hard boiled egg and some cottage cheese from the cafeteria at my office. So I made good choices :)

    Keep up the good work and reaching for your goals!!

    I met all 3 of my goals today! :)

    Stayed under my calories.
    Exercised 30+ minutes.
    Drank 6+ glasses of water.

    Also met my challenge of the day: Drank 8 glasses of water!

    Also met my bonus of the day: Ate WAY less sugar! :)
    Yesterday I was over my sugar by 58 and today I am only over by 1!
    So proud of myself as the sugar goal wasn't easy as I am almost always over my sugar!

    Not so good for my challenge this week. Had some pretty rough muscle strain in my legs from a combo of 30DS and some things I was doing at work. Have only made it to the gym once so far. A little better today so if I can make it tomorrow I still might meet my 4 tiimes on Saturday! Hopefully!

    Oma- Oh no!!! Take care of yourself an feel better :)
    Raquel - hopefully you can squeeze a workout in tomorrow! You can do it.
    Welcome Sam. You can do it!

    Hope everyone else is doing well!! Don't forget about us :smile:

    Today was ok. Did good with lunch and snacks. But I didn't bring breakfast and I was so hungry and the cafeteria didn't have anything quick so I had them make me an omelet. They used a lot of butter and I forgot that ... It wasn't that great. But tomorrow I'm going to get back into the swing.
    Have a great night everyone!

    Feeling a little blue today for many reasons. Didn't get a workout in. Brought my breakfast but not my lunch to work (another department bought my team lunch) pizza did ok ... Not great. A good friend of mine was in town so three of us got together and I realized how much of her life I've missed in the past few years. Made poor dinner choices. Been stuck around the same number for a while. I know it's because I haven't been making smart choices. But it's just one of those days where everything has you down.

    Sorry to be such a downer. I needed to share. Thanks for reading. I'm sure I'll be back to my usual self tomorrow.

    :flowerforyou: So sorry that you are feeling blue today. Hope you were able to do something to get out of the slump. The weekend is here and it should be good weather. Just don't get too much sun! LOL I never thought I would be saying that.

    :noway: The first time I was on Weight Watchers I lost 70 pounds. I remember being at a stand still somewhere around 40 pounds. :-( seemed like forever. That was when I switched to the old Core Version of Weight Watchers. I immediately saw results. Maybe if you change something. eat more every other day or eat no processed for a week or two. I always say all changes need at least two weeks.

    :bigsmile: Maybe you just need to go dancing!! :-)

    :love: Please feel free to talk to us, I don't know what I would do if I didn't have you guys!! My hubby could care less if I weighed 150 pounds or 550 pounds. :-( :noway:

    OK gonna report on how my week is going. Tomorrow is my weigh in day, and my last day for my week challenge. LOL Seems I do better when I don't FOCUS on something. LOL

    ok here goes

    My Wekly Goal was to walk 20 min a day: I did so/so..........

    6/12…(20 min Walk Away The Pounds)
    6/12…(20 min walk)
    6/13…(20 min Walk)
    6/14…( 20 min Walk Away The Pounds)
    6/15…(no walk)
    6/16…(no walk but I worked in my garden for over an hour and claimed 45 min)
    6/17…244.4 (20 min Walk)


    If you notice, when I don't come here to report daily, I probably didn't do my thing for the week. :blushing:

    I was taking those meds for my sun poision and man oh man did they make me sleep. And I like to get my walks in, in the morning. Otherwise the weirdo's are up after lunch. and so many do not work around here. :sad:

    I work, just happen to be on my summer break. And I wanna enjoy it! :glasses:



    Hey Oma, how you feeling? Any grand babies yet????? :drinker:
