    I weighed in exactly 1 pound less than last week. Not all that impressive, but considering I was almost certain I stayed the same or gained a few, I'll definitely take it! Gotta get better motivated this week and drink all my water! I'm so proud of my roomie! I won't spill the beans on her success because she should brag on herself, but she did a GREAT job this week! Go Heather! :flowerforyou:

    I'm not excited enough to do a happy dance - but congrats to those who are. I'll take any and all downward progress, so I'm happy to say I'm down another 0.5 pounds this week. I wonder if that will be a pattern?

    I'm going on a vacation with my kids for Spring Break next week, and I will not have a computer. Currently the plan is to just write down what I eat everyday in my journal (or daytimer), and then enter it all in when I get back. We're going to be doing a lot of beach going, playing, snorkeling, kayaking and touristy walking stuff - so I'm not too worried about not getting exercise. It's the vacation mentality of "relax, eat what you want, let go of calorie counting and have a great time" that has me the most concerned.

    wk1 183
    wk 2 178
    wk3 177.5
    wk4 175
    wk5 174.5

    Happy exercising everyone!

    Yay! I'm so excited!! I finally LOST!! it was only .5# but i feel so much better. I have run 4 miles every day this week and really watched my calories - as per my other post - sometimes too much! But I am feeling great with a ton of energy and I finally seem to not be so crabby with my kids - get those refined carbs out and see what it can do!!

    Hopefully next week will be EVEN BETTER!!!! :love:

    I don't believe it...but I lost 3.5 pounds this week. I thought for sure that I would have gained this week with having a bad weekend and all.

    Good luck to everyone on this weeks weigh in.....

    Gotta go...my family and I are going for a walk.

    Hi,
    We went a couple of weeks ago and my goal was to maintain and try and not gain. I did do a little extra cardio about 4 of the days and I was successful in maintaining my weith that week which was my goal.
    You can do it if you just try not to over eat higher calorie foods. Also drink alllllllllll the water:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:
    Have a great time with your family and god luck.

    Thanks Lynn - I think I'll be okay - I just like to write my worries out, so they're not swimming around in my head too much.

    Okay, so this might be TMI, but I peed like crazy today!!! I mean, like every 30 freakin' minutes. I'm just finishing out my TOM, and I'm pretty sure I was retaining water - so it seemed like all the 2L of water I drank yesterday, plus the 2L today, was coming out today. Just need a weirdness check on this. This is the first period I've had since I started using MFP and consistenly drinking the 2L of water a day. Has anyone else experienced this?

    Thanks,
    Kathryn

    Hi,
    It is a set of home videos with different types of exercise from weight lifting to yoga it has a diet plan with it and you are suppose to really shred out with lean muscle. I am starting today just took my before pictures then you take more pictures every 30 days to see your progress as well as take measurements.
    Have a great weekend,
    Lynn
