    I'm frustrated. I've had a very hard time staying on track lately and when it comes down to it, I have no one to blame but myself. I have a lot of trouble with moderation, and so this week I am trying to be much stricter with the types of food I eat, and trying to avoid foods that will lead to overeating and/or binging. I also changed my goals to something more reasonable for my current weight.

    I am trying to to dwell on last week, and I think checking in here (rather than just giving up due to my gain) is a good start...I hope...

    carolemack - Yay for changing your water drinking! And... nice Mother's Day gift! :-)

    jgunn81 - "i normally have horrible reflux at night... but lately its been pretty much non existent" - Maybe your weight loss is helping it. :-)

    tealighttrees - Yay for the running and for the attitude change!

    kristinkt - Sorry this has taken me so long to post but here is the recipe for the super low fat (and tasty!) ranch dressing...

    I use 1 cup of low fat cottage cheese, 1/4 cup low fat milk, 1/4 cup water, and 6 tsp of the ranch packet. I mix the liquid with the packet first (in the blender) and then add the cottage cheese. It is delicious! It works out to 10 calories per tablespoon of dressing and very little fat (less than 1/2 gram for two tablespoons).

    surferfreak - Please give the Olivia method a little while longer. What I find is that, even though I have a certain deficit, sometimes I'll lose less than that one week and then make it up another week. Make sure you're drinking plenty of water also.

    Migoi357 - Woo hoo, Tim! ONEderland!!!

    AmyByExample - "Current Weight" is the same weight that you have on 04/09. Yay for ONEderland!!! "I think I still need to watch my "PM Snack, Dinner & Dessert" calorie intake. Even though I'm usually in my calorie range, I eat more than 1/2 my calorie intake at this time of day." That can happen to me too. :/

    Shadowkitty22 & k****ey31 - Good luck in reaching your 50 lb goals!

    Pbprincess - Berries... Yum!

    mrsgstone - Yay for breaking the plateau!

    thurberj - Good luck to your coworker!

    Desirai - I hope you feel better soon!

    Audrine - "I believe that if you continue and keep going, eventually your efforts will be rewarded!" - I agree!

    dajndae - Yay for "heading back down"!

    cathyl3 - I think it would be great if you and poopoomonkey1978 were to help each other out!

    Sailingsal - I hope your son is better soon!

    lizarene3 - I hope your father-in-law is better soon!

    Mel2626 - Vacation... Fun!!

    Congrats to those that reached their mini goals this week!

    Congratulations to those that entered into a new "decade"!

    For those that are struggling, but committed to stay here and keep trying, GREAT! I'm glad that you are staying and still working towards your goals!

    P.S. I'm sad that so many avoided weighing in today. :frown: Sure many probably gained some from yesterday's Mother's Day celebrations but, sometimes, that's life...

    I agree! Although I don't save them to my hard drive. I just like to see the chart every week. I look forward to it to see how well we're all doing.

    I have been bouncing around from 233-236 for three weeks. My calories have been good, I did my exercise... I'm a little afraid that I've plateaued! So I'm going to try switching my meals around so I get higher calorie meals earlier in the day and smaller ones at dinner. This is a big deal for me because I'm not a morning eater at all.... That should definitely confuse my system though. We'll see how that goes. I really can't do much to switch up the exercise at this point. Wish me luck! (and any suggestions are welcome!).

    Audrine - Would you please give us a challenge (or two) for the week? Thanks!

    Kristen

    Thank you Kristen for the opportunity!

    Hmmm... Since spring is finally here and it's beginning to get warmer outside (where I live anyway), how about:

    - Putting on a dress, a skirt or capris/shorts and going for a walk outside, showing off our beautiful legs at least once this week? :glasses: We worked so hard this winter and - I at least - haven't had the chance to show them off enough yet! Be proud of your accomplishment, and take the opportunity to look at yourself when you walk in front of a window, admiring yourself!!!:laugh: Sometimes, when we're on a diet, I believe we become so hard on ourselves, it's important to take the time to congratulate ourselves too. Everybody in the challenge did amazing so far and deserves praise, even if it comes from ourselves! So this week's first challenge is: GO OUTSIDE AND BE YOUR CONFIDENT SEXY SELF! :blushing:

    - Also, how about taking advantage of all the lovely seasonal fruits and veggies? (I love Spring!:smile: ). How about trying something new? A fruit or vegetable you never had (fiddleheads, white asparagus, a new variety of tomato, rhubarb, wild garlic, kale...the possibilities are endless!) and cooking something with it?

    So those are the 2 challenges this week. Good luck everybody!

    I love the first challenge but it is already too late for that in Phoenix. Unless I'm going to be out before 10am all I'm going to be is a sweaty mess. It's hard to feel sexy with sweat running down your legs. :laugh: I think we are in the triple digits for the rest of the summer.

    I checked out the chart for this week and I am back to where I started.
    Now I weighed this morning and I was down 3.4 lbs. but I know most of that
    was sodium. I drank water like crazy and peed like a race horse all
    day. I ate light and will be eating light again today. The weekend did some
    damage to my plans. I hope to be down by next week.

    Congratulations all the losers. Keep it up. :drinker:
