My turn!
I'm Asia-- I am 32 (33 on August 26) I live in Maryland (about 20min from DC) I've been married to a wonderful man for 11 years and we have three amazing kids ages 13, 17, and 10. I am currently pursuing a Bachelors Degree in Social Work, and I work full time as a Case Manager at a day and resource center for the homeless.
After many many...many failed attempts at dieting, two blood pressure pills, an allegic reaction to something I still haven't figured out- I finally decided to adopt the lifestyle change attitude. I'm no longer looking for a quick fix (only to gain all the weight I lost back). I am now looking to make changes I can stick with forever. I want to lose weight so that I can feel great and look greater!
Year after year, birthday after birthday, event after event- I commit to losing weight for the next "BIG" event....or whatever, only to be disappointed by my lack of commitment when the "BIG" day comes. This year I have committed to bringing in my 33 BIRTHDAY healthier and weighing less! Mg goal is 33 pounds but I understand that may not happen. Whats more important is that I make the neccessary changes to keep this up for life! Myfitnesspal and all of you are making that possible!0 -
Hello my little lovely's!! Just a little note to tell you how totally awesome you all are doing and I'm so very super proud of you all. We are kicking my awesome calorie booty and pretty soon it will all pay off!
Sooooooo keep up the great job my hotties you are all doing fabulous!
*Muah*0 -
Thanks Kinda! You are also doing an awesome job as our Team Leader!0

Okay my Curvette's we need to figure out what day we want to do as our rest/water day. I need some input here so we can vote on it. Any particular day's?
My vote is Sunday because of my schooling. All my work for the week is due and I usually have quizzes to take, so lots of time spent in a chair on my computer.
So what's yours?0 -
Tuesday is my vote. Its the only day i get to spend with my honey. Otherwise i hardly even see him during the week.0
-
Hmmm....My only preference is actually *not* Tuesday (Sorry Nikki!!! We keep ending up on opposite schedules!!!), just because I know I'll be working out a good amount Tuesday.
From a purely "two birds, one stone" aspect, I'd like to try an coincide this challenge's water day with the Knotty Girls water day, if possible, although, I know Knotty Girls doesn't mean squat to our two NON-Knotties.0 -
oh well, im not expecting to have it easy for me ever. But my relationship is starting to be affected by me spending so much time at the gym, and not with him when i have the chance to. Either i let me and my teams down or i let me and him down. either way i dont win.0

Hi Everyone my name is Nellie I live in Ohio I have three kids (one teenage boy, and two tweens) I somedays feel like im not going to make it though that teens lol Anyway I have been with the father to my kids for fourteen years and we have decided to tie the knot finally our wedding is set for next year at the beach in NC I have started plaining already didnt relize how much work it is I am a nurses aide and am attending school to further my nursing career im goin for my lpn the my rn I want to take steps so i can learn the different ways each work.
The reason that i started my new life style is because the last two years i have been sick I was put on cymbalta for leg cramps and it had put me into a deep depression i mean it was to the point where my old docter was telling me i was bipolar. I was hiding in my house i lost half my friends during that time and almost in my eyes lost the only good thing in my life (my fiancee) my bff Well that was the end i had to get help so i went and the new docter took me off the meds and two weeks later i was back to my normal lol im not perfect but who is right!! So this is step one into getting my life back I have like i said went back to work and school I am doing GREAT now. So i am ready for anything u guys throw my way lol.
I look forward to getting to know all of u .....:flowerforyou: :drinker:
My vote for the day of rest is Sunday like kinda i have school and usually alot of work to do and thats the time my fiancee is home let me know i can be flexible take care0 -
Welcome Nellie! It's super great to have you here and we look forward to taking this journey with you.
Okay back to business. We are waiting on one other person to vote and so far we have:
1 for Tuesday
2 for Sunday
1 for the same day as the Row the World Challenge Days aka Knotty Girls
So Asia what's your thought?0 -
Hi ladies
My vote would have to be Sunday too. I just committed myself to Zumba on Tuesdays.0 -
Okay it looks like we have 3 for Sunday so let's do this.
Sunday rest/water day
Nikki since 3 of us are going to be slamming it out on Tuesday's why don't you just take it easy on Tuesday's so you can have plenty of time with your man. With so many of us kicking some booty on Tuesday we can more than cover you, so snuggle with your man and don't worry about ANY big burns on Tuesday. As a team we are more than happy to help cover so you and your guy can get that much needed quality time. And as your Captain I mean it!
I got my eye on you missy! LOL
So my other Curvette's Tuesdays will be our big day's to help make sure that Nikki keeps her snuggle time in!!
Does that work for everyone? Nikki you don't count because you are on strict snuggle time with you man on Tuesday's. LMAO Per Captain's orders! 0 -
Nikki you don't count because you are on strict snuggle time with you man on Tuesday's. LMAO Per Captain's orders!
LOL!!! LOVE IT! And totally agreed, from your other captain, too!!! ;-)
Well, then that means TODAY is our rest day, Ladies!!!! :laugh:0 -

Real quick you don't need to put your ticker information on your posts as it makes it show up twice okay, just under your signature tab.
Okay are you using the Food Diary? Usually you are allowed 2500 mg of sodium per day but tomorrow's Monday challenges are - under your calories - 50 Dumbell Flys and try and exercise. Each 20 mins of exercise = 10 points so if you workout for 60 mins that's 30 points total. Not including the daily nutrition and exercise challenges, which are 5 points for nutrition and 10 points for exercise. Welcome again my dear now lets kick some calorie booty! Go Curvette's Go!! 0 -
LOL i didnt even notice it thanz kinda ill fix it thanx:embarassed:0
