So...is it still healthy if you eat 600 calories of salad!?!?! It was mostly lettuce but dang that dressing! I guess since It had lots of other good stuff in it, and I burned off most of what I've eaten all day long its not so bad. Any thoughts??
Ya not bad at all, think of what you would of been eating before you started here and no exercise to boot....be proud! Maybe use a light dressing next time.0 -

What kind of dressing do you like? If you're like me...it is the RANCH DRESSING! I have tried SO hard to like lighter types, but I just like ranch. My friend told me about Walden Farms brand dressing...she said the chipotle ranch and bacon ranch are really good...and get this.... ZERO CALORIE, ZERO FAT, ZERO CARBS, ZERO GLUTEN, ZERO SUGAR
I have no clue how they do it...and have NOT tried it yet personally, but I know Kroger and Publix carry them in the health/wellness sections! Worth a shot for sure0 -
DAMN!!! And of course the nearest store that carries that is like 45 mins away.

Yes I do feel like eating a big salad is alot better then eating the pizza or burger that I sure would like to be eating right about now.0 -
Had a great day today. I was below my calorie intake but a little high on the fat. I was feeling a little unmotivated this morning, not really wanting to workout or do much, but I also wanted some pure Mommy time, so I went to the gym and felt GREAT after my workout. I just need to keep reminding myself that I feel best after a good workout!
Keep up the great work ladies!!!0 -

Great Job!, I felt really unmotivated today as well but I just got the stroller out and went for it, unfortunatly "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes " Keep replaying in my head the whole walk...I really need an IPod!0 -
I woke up extremely discouraged that my scale moved up, so I had not such a great day in the food department. But I worked out for 2 hours and burned 993 cals so I definitely worked off the bad stuff.... but now's the weekend and that's when my diet tends to go to hell in a handbasket. So thank goodness for you ladies to keep me accountable!0

Afternoon All! Well, I will NOT be going anywhere near the scale for at least the next 4 days, Aunt Flow showed up last night, early I might add!! UGH, and we were planning to go to Aquatica this Sunday, damn, damn, damn!!! We have been wanting to go for almost a month now and something always screws it up. Maybe it won't be too bad, trying to be positive.
So can I count shopping in Wal Mart on a Saturday morning with a 3y/o and a 5y/o as cardio? Maybe strength training, cause dodging and weaving that cart around all the slow moving shoppers is truely exhasting!!
Hope everyone is having a Great Saturday!!!0 -
Yeeps! Circusmom... I hate shopping with my kids!! That said, I'd rather just shop with them than with my hubby as well-- he just takes of and leaves me with " it's not that big... I'll find you later.." Uuugggghhhh!!!
Went to the beach with the family again today.. and am in serious need of a walk. After a few days of "vacation eating" my body wants the old routine back!
Havea great day all!!0 -
I hope everyone is having a great Saturday! Did everyone stay out of the kitchen last night?! I sure did!
My Saturday is going well. I know I still have a long way to go before I look "good", but earlier today I took my son to the splash park, and I was in my swimsuit and swimsuit cover (a short dress). For the first time in a long time I went out in public dressed like that. I didn't even feel bad about myself or worry what others were thinking of me. I played in the shooting water with my husband and son and we had a great time! I guess all it takes sometimes to feel great is knowing that you are doing what it takes to make yourself healthier and looking better. Great start to a great day!0 -
Hi, I would like to be apart of your 60 day challenge, It doesnt matter what team im on, Green is fine.0

Hey all! I don't have much time to workout today - at a wedding all afternoon/evening and had to take my last minute shopping hubby to find an outfit this morning! But I do plan on dancing my butt off tonight! I bought a dress for the wedding (in a MEDIUM woot woot!) thought I'd share a pic with you all

Hey everybody hope y'all are having a great weekend so far! Got up extra early this morning and did an 80 minute workout,and then walked around a hot car dealership for a little bit. Feeling great because yesterday I had gained 0.2 lbs back but today I've lost 1.5. Hope the next few weeks goes the same way!0
