    Nonibug and abs you are definitely in my prayers. I know that what you are dealing with is so much more than my diagnosis and I wish the best for you both. Everyone, thank you all for the support. I really do appreciate it, but if you catch me being too melodramatic feel free to kick me in my virtual bootie.

    Congratulations to everyone on your successes today!

    Good morning!

    My goal today is (1) not to over eat today. My company is ordering us mexican food from Macayo's
    (2) do my run/walk program (3) drink enough water

    Everyone have a great day!


    well, I broke goal number (1) :frown: I did over eat, and it wasn't even mexican food, it was pizza, which I thought "That won't be hard to resist". However, I over looked the fact that my belly was empty and the smell of the pizza overwhelmed my nostrils which sent hunger signals to my brain telling me to eat as much pizza as I wanted. :grumble:

    This binge only put me 34 cals over today. I still need dinner but I have chicken noodle soup at home which is low in calories so I won't go to far over and so, I'm not totally freaking out. :indifferent:

    Had a great day worked out this morning on the elliptical for 20 mins and the treadmill for another 20. I am on track with my calories and very happy.

    Amelia - what do you do on your circuit workout? Gynuwyne - when you did one, what did you do? I'm interested in trying it, but my (free) gym at work has very limited machines.

    October - turning away the donuts! You get the gold star for the day! I work in a position where community resources are vying for my affection (referrals, not really affection), and they bring us food very often. I usually try to take it straight to the nurse's station, where the doctors and nurses take care of it quickly, but sometimes they have lunches that we have to go to and you never know what lunch will be. That will be a struggle for me, I'm sure. For example, one of them is bringing pizza tomorrow. One brought Chinese yesterday.

    As an aside - if you are an early morning poster, feel free to start this thread without me! I am up and working out at 5 am, but I don't actually log onto a computer until I get to work and get going (after 8). And on weekends, I get to sleep in, so you may not see me until afternoon on the weekend! I don't want my schedule to stop anyone from getting the support they need!

    Hey! I workout at home. Ive got a treadmill, a bar bell,dumbells,a step and other odds and ends that ive managed to pick up over the years! So far my Favorite Workouts are from Cathe Friedrich. Today I did a circuit from her called " Cardio and Weights" its about an hour long and its basically a comination of step aerobics and then some weight training! She has video clips of her workouts on her site Cathenation.com .

    I thought I was being so good...I chose the low fat black bean soup at Panera tonight. I did great on calories and fat, but I just realized I am driving 2 girlfriends from Cincinnati to Chicago tomorrow---they may not appreciate my "healthy choice">:blushing: Better go dig out the Beano! Anyways, you all have a wonderful weekend and wish me luck. I'm "going off the grid" for the first time, in Chicago no less--no computer to track my meals and 6 girlfriends to get me in trouble. :happy: :happy: :happy:

    QUESTION - I dont have time to go to the gym everyday so I try to do some stuff at home. I need to buy some newer dvds and need some good ones.

    What is everyone favorite dvd(s)?
    Favorite good ,quick and sweet treats with low calories? (I have a sweet tooth)

    My favorite workout DVDs are Cathe Friedrich. She's so amazing and motivating. You can check clips of them out at www.cathe.com and she's on FitTV in the morning's if you get that channel.

    I am in love with Edy's Fruit Bars (especially the creamy coconut flavor!) They are soooo good! And not TOO terrible at 120 cals.

    the strength you ladies have is amazing, it really is awe inspiring. my daily goal is to eat more vegies. my kids are affected negatively by my food choices, because i tend to feed them more processed foods. this change is as much for them as it is for me. by the way i love anything to do with taebo:happy:

    Hi everyone,

    BUSY day at work so didnt get to check in, but I posted this under success stories before I realized the thread for the Perfect 10 Buddy Club had become offical. I am so excited to be part of the group - anyway here was my earlier post to different thread... Just wanted to share my great day :laugh: For those of you who had a rougher one hope this gives you hope that it is out there and you can do it...

    Today I officially went from obese to over weight as far as my bmi goes --- wooot wooot . To celebrate I went out and bout myself a hot new little black dress for a holiday reception dh and I are going to tomorrow night... and just to add icing on the cake the dress had been marked down three times AND the lady at the counter had a 15% off coupon that she let me use so the dress only cost me $31!! Oh yeah and did I mention the dress was a size 12!!! Mama is dancing in the streets tonight :)

    I will post pics of me in it after tomorrow night ---- it's NOT that one I'm already pictured in for my profile right now, mama got her self another one :noway:
