Emotional Challenge(7/20-7/27):
I have not made enough of an effort to really watch what I'm eating and getting in exercise. My Husband is skinny and has that "I can eat everything and not gain an ounce" metabolism! I can't keep eating what he's eating! LOL! So ... I was maintaining my high weight by eating along with him. Not anymore!! LOL! I could blame it on quitting smoking last year .. but that's an excuse. It's all up to me on making the right choices and I haven't. But that is gonna change now!
I'll catch up with y'all later! Have a great Wednesday!
GO TEAM RED!!!0 -
I posted my weigh-in on the other thread, but I'll post here as well:
Starting MFP weight: 152
Starting SAHMU: 134
Week 1: 134
Goal: 127 (maybe????)
Strenght daily goal: Done!!
Cardio : after 8pm
Emotional Challenge: When I started to become unhappy with my weight and said something about it everyone (not my hubby) told me that I'm not in my 20's anymore and to think that I can look like I am, is crazy. After a few half hearted attemps to lose the weight I started to think that maybe they are right, I'm in my 40's and I've had 4 kids, this is just where I am in life and I need to accept it.
Well one day after complaining about having to buy new shorts to go on vaca, cause nothing I had fit, and hearing the, "your old get over it" comment again, I lost it. Something in me remembered who I used to be and how I used to look (not to brag but I looked pretty good in my 20's), and that was it, I was set to prove eberyone wrong! I can look as good as I did! So here i am!!!
My new motto:
I don't want to "Look good for my age", I want to "Look good at any age"0 -

Okay ~ Kitchen closed around 7pm est.
I did the 30DS which has tons of squats ... way more than 25 ... so count that as done!
I did the 3 mile Walk Away the Pounds by Leslie Sanson. That super fat burning one. Killer after doing 30DS!! Super sweaty now! LOL! It took me a total of 50 mins to complete with stretching included. Count me as complete for 45 mins of walking!
Wonder what happened to the others?

Hi!
I did L1D8 of my 30DS! I also did 45 minutes of walking! :happy:
Kitchen closed , but it's Friday night. It's my drinking night. :drinker: I have more than enough calories left over to get a good buzz. So, I plan on drinking, but not eating. Not sure if that counts or not as a closed kitchen. :ohwell:0 -
friday: got in my walk..50 minutes today at lunch and i did my squats.
kitchen will be closed shortly. don't have time to log all my food but i kept track at work today in a notebook so i'm good. i kept enough calories to enjoy a glass of wine. we are having a fire pit and dh will be drinking so i wanted to have something
my aunts funeral tomorrow so i'll try to be good with my eating but we are having a family dinner so i might splurge..just a little0 -
Hey all late incoming lol but happy to here! Woot! Have to go visit mom but will post more tonight.

Okay ~ Saturday has been busy! Bought a new Jeep Grand Cherokee today! Well .. not brand new .. new to me! LOL!
Anyway ... I did my 30DS this morning. L1 D9! Woot! Only 30 mins though ... :-/
Kitchen is closed. I made it under calorie limit, but just barely. That's okay though. It's the weekend and I will be all real good come a week day!
Hope y'all are having a great weekend! 0 -
For Saturday:
Cardio: rest day
Strength: 25 squats with 35lb barbell
Kitchen: closed at 8pm, just barely
Ugh, missed morning walk cause I didn't get to bed til after midnight. Then missed evening walk cause it is pouring down rain, so I guess today will be my rest day for cardio.
Tomorrow we are either going to Aquatica or Adventure Island, either way, it's time for some family fun time!!!! Hope everyone enjoys thier Sunday!!!!0 -
well, it was a tough day. my favorite aunts funeral. i didn't get anything in today. no walk, no squats and i didn't keep track of my food but i was pretty upset all day and didn't eat much anyway. i'll get all my tears out by bedtime and be back and ready to go tomorrow.0
