    Good Morning ladies! I weighed in at 166 this morning; I can't believe I'm only 6lbs away from my mini-goal. I probably won't reach it by Labor Day but I think this is awesome anyway. I want to reach it by my birthday in mid-September.

    Nicole - Great loss!! :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    Even if you dont hit it by Labor Day that is so great that you are so close to you next mini goal! I think youll definitly hit it by your birthday! Keep it up!

    Everybody so far is posting really awesome progress this week. That's amazing! You guys are really keeping me motivated by your success. I am currently fighting shin splints(from running) as well as a twisted ankle from Friday's Navy workout. It seems like my body is not happy with me trying to force it to lose weight:tongue: I am trying my best to eat healthy & "take it easy" while by body is healing. It is very difficult b/c I use my exercise calories in order to eat more food:wink: And.... I LOVE to eat!:blushing:

    Have a wonderful week ladies!!! We've got two more weeks to finish this challenge strong! We CAN do this!!!!

    Cola- Poor thing hope your body gets its act together, doesnt it know we only have 2 weeks left in our challenge!! :wink:

    LisaFred & Angela- Great Losses this week, you guys are doing amazing!!!

    Hello dear mommies! I have been in the DL for the past week or so, I was on vacation since last Friday 8/12 and have been enjoying the time off with some out of town guests and my precious 5 year old. Today was a very emotional day, I dropped my son off at his first day of Kindergarten. He of course did great and I was a mess in the car thinking how much I dislike my job as I miss so much of whats going on with him... then after that emotional morning, I headed over to the school office to discuss after school services... GOOD LORD it's expensive and I guess I make "too" much money to qualify for reduced fees.. what a freaking mess!!!! anyways, I just need you ladies to continue to provide me with such great support! in the midst of this madness, I stopped at McDonald's for breakfast, yet even more crying when I realized the junk I was putting in my body.... tomorrow I will post my weigh-in and I will be hoping on my treadmill tonight to vent these frustrations out!!! tomorrow, back to grind at work and wishing every minute that I could pick my son up, do homework together, do some extra curricular activities instead of paying some after school to provide him with that support.... :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :brokenheart: :brokenheart: :brokenheart:

    Im sorry for such a post, I just needed someone to listen........ sigh

    Oh Mimi I feel for you!!! My son starts preK on the 7th, and we get to pay thru the nose for it because we "make too much" Im going to have one heck of a time on his first day. How do our babies grow so fast :cry: Feel better Mama!!!

This whole going to kindergarten thing has taken a toll on me.....like throwing me into a depression and eating mode! I will rise above!! So no food for me after 9:)

    Hmm - no food after 9pm. I already broke that one. I usually don't exercise until about 8pm or after and then have a snack so it's usually after 9pm. I'll give it a shot though --- :happy:

    HEy everyone!

    Sounds like everyone had a great lose! I didnt have a lose at all! actaully up 3 pounds on the day of weigh in cause of the wonderful TOM!!! But anyways it will head back down this week! I am pretty stoked monday I started biggest loser bootcamp dvd. It's 6 weeks. Im hoping for some big results but will be happy with any results. I feel like i will be able to stick with this better than i have at other things. i have no clue what level 2 and level 3 are like but right now im loving level 1.

    this will be a good challange this week, becuase for the rest of the week I work both jobs so I eat dinner at 4:30 then when i get off at 10:30-11 I am usually hungry but this will be a good challenge of my determination of stickign with the challenge!

    HUrley- You might be an exception to this rule since you do your work outs so late at night.

    Latoya!!! 153!!! So happy for you!! My scale said 148 yesterday but i figured it was a fluke, jumped on this morning, 148 again!! This week have proven to be good in the weight loss department for all of us!

    I broke our new mini challenge last night! HUbby has wednesdays off since he works 4 10s so we were up watching movies till 1am! He had a huge bowl of ice cream, I opted for an apple with peanut butter.... kept me under cals still and hey got in one more fruit serving!

    Hope you all have a wonderful weekend, and I am really starting to get sad that this group will be over in a week and a half... any of you plan to start up another Mommy challenge??? I love our group!

    Happy Hump Day Mommies!!

    YAY!!!! Congrats to everyone for all the progress this week. A huge congrats to Kristyn & Latoya on breaking your plateaus! Congrats Becca on your unexpected loss as well. I am super happy for you guys because you both have been working super hard. I agree that there is not really much rhyme or reason to the whole breaking a plateau thing. I am happy that you guys seem to have broke the code lol.:tongue:

    I never eat after 7:30pm, so this will be an easy challenge for me. Of course, we are totally lame-O and go up to bed at 8pm b/c of the kiddos :wink:

    Have a wonderful rest of the week all!!
