HI Y'ALL! I just couldn't wait to tell SOMEONE! I just weighed my self and I finally broke the 143 plateau and hit 142! I know, big woop. :blushing: For me though, it is great. I've been trying to break that 143 for weeks!:bigsmile:

so... this week/weekend was my boyfriends graduation from college and his parents came up and took us out to a LOT of nice meals. it was SO hard... i was pretty good, with one particularly bad day, but i exercised hard all but one day as well. im hoping tuesday's weigh in will not set me back, but i am only hoping to maintain this week. these next two weeks i have nothing to do though, so i am hitting the gym hard! very excited and hopeful that it will pay off on the scale

Ahmee - congrats on breaking the plateau!! that's amazing!

Teresa - feel better! i feel your pain, i have a cough i just can't seem to shake and am still having trouble breathing when i exercise. such a drag!

Also, i have only been here a few weeks, so i am not sure if you all have done this, but how about a fruits and veggies challenge? i have been eating a lot more and it just fills you up! how about trying to get in the suggested 5 servings a day every day (and, thus, hopefully being fuller and not snacking unhealthily during the day). what does everyone think?

Ahmee - Congrats on breaking your plateau

Teresa - Feel better soon!

This weekend was much better than my usual weekends in terms of food and exercise. I ate a lot of fruits/veggies and did 2 hours of step aerobics over the 3 days. Hubby and I also bought bikes so we can start biking together in the afternoons. I also was very daring and made a "Green Monster" smoothie for breakfast. I had read about these on numerous blogs and decided to make my own version:

2 cups spinach
1 6 oz. container of fat-free strawberry/bananna yoguft
1/2 cup skim milk
1/2 bananna
5-6 ice cubes

The green color was weird, but the taste was delish! I managed to get in 2 servings of veggies in my breakfast. I think these are going to be standard in my breakfast routine going foward.

Thanks guys! I knew you would understand...:laugh: My hubby just sorta looked at me with that "wha?" expression...:grumble: My goal has become to get into a size 10 (finally made it to 12 from 18 a couple weeks ago! Yay me!). I love the name of this topic. It always makes me smile!

:happy:
