    I am currently sitting on my BUTT because one of my lovely "daughters" is on house arrest for 3 weeks. Cool, eh? Not. That means I get to sit at home with her while my husband takes the other girls shopping, out to eat, to youth group, church, etc. Yep, it kinda sucks but at least I have time to do my homework, right? haha I am REALLY hoping that I can post a decent weigh-in on Monday for this challenge! I have been drinking water like crazy to flush all the sodium I had last week so we'll see. Sorry that i'm not on much to interact with you, but if you ever have a minute drop me a note on my profile & i'll get back to you as quick as I can...I really do want to get to know each of you!

    HAVE A MARVELOUS WEEKEND...get out of the house for me, mmk? :)

    Hey everyone!! Sorry I've been AWOL the past few days, I'm finally home from Southern California, where I spent the last two days park hopping between Disneyland and CA Adventure...wayyyy too many miles and hours of walking (my exercise log is probably way lower than it should be). I feel really excited to be back, but a little scared for Monday's weigh-in, since I feel like I'm forgetting to log in food that I ate at Disney. Anyways, I have to be up super early on Monday (need to be at work by 7:30), so tomorrow is my one day of rest from all the crazy running around and driving everywhere...hope everyone's Sundays are awesome!!! (It's currently 12:10am Sunday here)

    p.s. hey percypig, the link you posted wouldn't go, can you repost it? thanks!

    Hey everyone!

    Sorry Mandie, don't want to brag since you're on house arrest but my weekend very unexpectedly turned out to be so cool! Ok so on Friday I had this date thing, guy was really cute and he said I looked hot (yay)... He's a bit too young for me though so it won't go anywhere but hey, it's nice to feel wanted. Grabbed some lunch with a friend on Saturday, walked down the Thames and stopped at a photography exhibition, I felt so grown up! Then a friend called to ask whether I wanted to spend Sunday going out on a rib with him to watch the start of a sailing race. I hadn't been on the water for a long time and had so much fun! I didn't make great food choices today but what the heck, it's one day in 3 weeks and it's been a while since I felt this happy. Hope you all had a lovely weekend!

    Crikee - try removing the dot from the end of the link, that should do the trick.

    Hi all - hope everyone had a wonderful weekend, I had a very busy one and am glad that I am getting in some relax time now before heading off to bed.

    Joni - I am so glad that everything is back to normal there and that you had a fabulous weekend. It is so nice to see you happy again =)

    Alyshe - Love that show, one of the best out there and Betty White is fabulous.

    Mandie - Sorry about the house arrest, that kinda sucks but like you said you can get your homework done this way =)

    crikee - Hello, your adventure sounds wonderful. I heading down there in january and can't wait, it will be my first time. Will send you a friend request.

    Erikasev - Hi, glad you managed to find us. I would think school would be extra hard trying to eat right and everything. We will be here for support when you need it. Will send you a friend request as well.

    Hope you all have a great evening!!

    Happy Monday everyone! Not happy with the results today, scale didn't move unfortunately, although as I haven't been able to exercise as I wanted this week and didn't eat super clean yesterday I guess it's not totally unexpected. I did see the number I want (healthy BMI!) on the scale on Saturday but it didn't stick. Oh well, I will get it next week! Because this time, I am not going to let myself discouraged! This time I am going to reach my goal weight!

    08/08: 167.6

    Oh, and I forgot to say that I did lose body fat % so that does make up for the number on the scale!

    Wow! It looks like you all are doing pretty well. My mom (who also battles her weight) always used to say, "if you lost 2 pounds, that makes you 4 pounds ahead of the game because you're going in the right direction and didn't gain 2".

    My week was pretty much a wash. I gained .2, but I'm an optimist and thinking it's water. :wink: I had two lemon drops over the weekend and I usually don't drink so I'm sticking with that.

    Happy Monday everyone. Hope you all have a great week and stay focused on your goals.

    Hey ladies! I'm so glad for you guys, losing lbs and inches this week! But...I'm a little discouraged after weighing in this morning, I "gained" about 4 pounds...but I'm hoping and praying that it's either muscle or water weight and bloating (my monthly friend is visiting) because that seems like a lot to gain in less than 2 weeks? On the upside, my legs and arms are smaller (didn't do exact measurements, but I can see more muscle tone and pants & sleeves are fitting better). The school year also started today, so I had to leave for work at 6:40am this morning =( It was an exhausting day trying to fix all of the students' schedules on my caseload, but I'm about to go for a walk and de-stress.

    8/08: 186.2
    8/15: 190.1

    Want to get down to 188.5 next week!!

    Morning ladies!

    !!!!!! I'm still waiting for weigh-in info from erikasev, paulajfranco, alibreasy, sreimer07, Celine and jamadler2 !!!!!! Please can you add your info by the end of the day and I'll post our chart tomorrow morning, if I manage to figure out how to :smile:

    Had a great exercise day yesterday, did kettlebells in the morning and went to boxing class at lunchtime. I actually felt quite sore this morning so had a lie-in! Will go to total body conditioning class at lunchtime though! I feel so much better in my skin for doing classes which mix up strength + cardio rather than just cardio. My skin is definitely more toned and I swear to god I saw a beginning of muscle appearing in my arm this morning!

    Crikee, don't be discouraged, hang in there and your efforts will pay off! I haven't seen the scale moving this last week either but I am so much more comfortable in my clothes so we must be doing something right.

    Congrats to everyone for checking in so far, whether you've had a loss or not, we're still on this website and exercising and eating well which is much better than slouching on the couch in front of the TV with seven bags of crisps!

    Have a great Tuesday!

    Sorry for the delay.... my bad.
    August 8: 266.5 lbs
    August 15: 264 lbs
    So I manage to lose 2.5 lbs in one week. Now I see that I have to do extrem exercise for me to lose weight, cause I never was able to lose 2.5 lbs ever before...even when I was biking home from work every day (and that's a 10 mile bike ride).

    I have an uneventful weekend. My husband played golf with his buddies and my daughter and I spent Saturday at my parents house. Sunday we did pretty much NOTHING.

    Exercise is pretty tricky this week since I have a hour long bus ride to go get my daughter from my parents home, then when I get home, it's time for showers, lunch fixing and bed time. So I realy trying to be careful with my food and next week, when I'll be on vacation, I'll go for my hour long walks at the campground.

    Have a great day everyone!
