    I'm away from my scale so I'll be weighing in a few days later as soon as I get back from my trip.

Feeling it today but was still able to do 4.5 today. My shoulder is feeling a lot better from the cortisone so gonna start back on the upper body probably Monday :)

    On Thursday I was complaining to my husband that the scales hadn't moved (I seem to lose on a 2 week cycle and I was expecting my big week). He told me it'll drop all of a sudden and this morning I woke to a 2.2lbs loss. Perhaps I should listen to him more often!

    Nice! That's awesome. :)

    I've been exercising everyday this past week for about an hour and the scale hasn't budged except maybe in the opposite direction this week. Frustrating. =P I'll be putting all my will in staring down the scale tomorrow -- hopefully that'll make it budge in the good direction.

    Awesome job so far everyone!!! I haven't weighed yet...to early and I'm still in bed....but I'm hoping for some good news on that stupid scale. I've been sick so I'm gonna cut myself a little slack.

    I have had a lot of sodium the last few days - too much sodium. Scale will most likely be up when I weigh in this week.

    Hello All,
    I am doing ok so far, I am down 4 lb.s for 2 weeks, but here comes my challenge...Vegas!! It's going to be a little difficult because I can't prepare my own meals, but this is the real world and I have to learn to handle it like the rest of the world!! Wish me luck. Have a great week everyone!!

    WTG to everyone who had a loss this week and we'll get it next time to those who gained....I gained 1.2 lbs this week, but I also made very bad choices last week as I ate a lot of junk and ate out more than I should have.....On top of it, I didn't have a lot of time for exercise which will be a MUST this week! I'm not saying I have a good reason for eating out and not exercising, but I will share a little bit of my story....

    My husband, our 2 kids, and I live with his parents, and when it comes time to eat.....my mother in law will feed the kids first (which is fine, i don't mind them eating before everyone else, its my 2 kids and then her younger son) BUT the main reason why we eat out so much, is when my step father in law is home (on his days off) he has to eat first and no matter what my mother in law makes, he eat almost everything leaving nothing for no body else, and when he wants to eat its usually during the time my husband and I need to eat, so my husband can get ready for work and leave on time (he's a third shift trucker), so when he's home, we tend to just keep our schedule and grab a bite to eat....and the other part is my mother in law doesn't like dishes being dirtied again after she's washed them, which means if it 6:01, forget it! Dishes are done and so are you.....

    But I'm going to plan ahead this week and make it better! Together we can do this!!

    Let's rock Week 3, who's with me :smile:

    Great job darling and have a super time in Vegas!! I've found when traveling that if I just stick to low carb, high protein choices and skip desserts but just take one bite of everyone else's I don't feel deprived and I don't get off track....not that I can always do this...but when I do it works great!
