    Oh boy oh boy oh boy. My "fat-skinny" jeans (the tag says the same size but they were always smaller than the others) are fitting better today! :bigsmile: Still not quite into the next size. I could if I wanted, but it makes me have the muffin top thing and I can't stand that. So I will have to wait until my stomach gets a little smaller...:ohwell: I really don't have a problem doing the cardio. that is my workout! 6-7 times a week I walk at least half an hour. So I am pretty nervous about the next few days. Tomorrow, after that graduation, we are supposed to go eat at Chili's....so I was like, I got this...no problem! UNTIL I looked up the nutrition info on all their food....:noway: :noway: :noway: :noway: ......RIDICULOUS. No wonder I weigh so much! I want to order off the kids menu, but I don't know if they are going to deny me that. Worth a try, right? Because if I could do that then I could have "real" food, but save myself a lot of calories, sodium, fat, etc.! Otherwise it looks like a house salad and maybe a cup of broccoli cheese soup....And then Friday of course I am leaving and man...I just don't know. I think we are going to try to exercise anyway on the days we are driving. I'm going to insist!! Especially since I will have to weigh-in first thing Tuesday morning to report here!! lol.
    I hope everyone is having a good Wednesday!
    Hurley, let us know what happened today!!

    Hurley, let us know what happened today!!

    jlhcrh3...congrats on the pants!! Isn't it a great feeling when those pants fit just a little better than the last time you wore them?!:happy: I am sure that there will be MANY more of those days to come.

    Hurley....congrats on the new job :smile: And I am sure that you will make the team and be a star!!

    Well, I have been doing pretty good this week about burning off 3500 calories. So far I have burned 2036 and I still have 3 days left in the week...hopefully this week I hit my goal. I am not seeing much movement on the scale :ohwell: which has me a little bummed, but hopefully I am losing inches (I only measure myself once a month) I have also been very adament in drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day. I realized that once I was able to stop drinking soda, that drinking my 8 glasses was easier!! Snacking at night has not been too big of an issue either.

    On a different note....does anyone drink green tea? I just got a new iced tea maker and I am not too keen on regular tea so I was looking for alternatives. Thoughts? Well, sorry for this long winded post....I hope that everyone has an awesome Thursday!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    I am exhausted and fighting a nasty headache. And I have to pack now and then get up early and exercise and get on the road :frown: Today, I haven't done very well. I had everything all planned out, and then my plans got foiled. However, I did do good at Chili's and even though I was awfully tempted, I stuck with the "healthiest" choices (after spending 2 1/2 days studying the nutrition info) and so I at least sort of feel good about that, lol.

    Don't forget that after this, I will be MIA until Monday!!!!!!!!
    I hope everyone has a great holiday! Enjoy yourselves! (but not too much!!!!)---especially with BBQing, that is one of my all-time weaknesses!! :laugh:

    awesome on the job, hurley!

    and thanks JustAnotherGirl, I sure hope so!!!!

    I went off my diet Saturday and I broke the goal for this week because Wednesday and Saturday I sat on my butt and did nothing.

    I'm back on track, but I dreading tomorrow way in. I know I could have done better.

    I think next week goal is to get at least three hours of exercise in a week...Idk though, someone comment on that?

    Well, this week I've managed to get 8 glasses of water in four out of seven days. So I failed there.

    I managed to not eat three hours before bed six of the seven days. So I'm going to say I passed that challenge by 90 percent.

    And I at least got 15 minutes of exercise 5 of the seven days. So I'm going to say I passed 75 percent there.

    I hope everyone had a great holiday. :smile: I was at work for 6 hours, but it was rather enjoyable. I will weigh-in tomorrow (perhaps hurley will be here and we'll have a new thread). I unfortunately think I had another horrible week. I haven't been feeling well at all and this has definitely affected my goals and my motivation. :ohwell:

    I have not seen a week 4 thread yet.

    Yes and no. I enjoyed spending time there, but it was hard to see my grandma in the condition she's in. So, I admit, there was a little bit of emotional eating going on this weekend. and I gained 2 pounds :sad: but I am going to work hard this week and keep moving along...

    How was yours (and everyone's) weekends?

    and where is everyone????
