    Hey there back from my vacation in Italy.

    Had an awesome time, and I was able to go for lots of walks, which counter acted all the bread/pasta/pizza/beer I had.

    Good job everyone! I lost .2 this week - haven't been good about getting my exercise in. I'm overwhelmed with school (taking 3 classes this summer). But it's a new week, right? :drinker:

    Good job! I need to get in on a group next time. We have a challenge going on at my job, but I need all of the motivation and support I can get.

    I suck at excel, and could not figure out how to get the percentages to automatically calculate on our spreadsheet, so we're using a different site where we have to plug in the numbers to get the %, then go back and put the number into the spreadsheet. : /

    Rach - Glad that you were able to drain the blisters on your feet. I hope that they feel pretty good today!!

    My weigh in was 135 today. Up 1 lb I think. :ohwell:

    I have worked out the past two days and hope to workout again once I get home tonight. Congrats to all of you that lost this week. Lots of you pulled some big numbers too!!

    I think we are all in need of a challenge. You name it and I am in.

    :heart: J

    Great job this week ladies. I better be down next week after my TOM is over. I will struggle with the chocolate challenge, but isn't that what a challenge is? Come on ladies I know it is hard, but we can do it. Fight through those cravings. I am in- no chocolate for 1 week.

    Uh oh guess i will have to get a vanilla cake for my daughters birthday.

    I'm back and I owned up to the 3 pounds I gained while hubby was home. So much for maintaining, eh?! I think some of it is water weight as I was not drinking anywhere near enough water! I'm always afraid to drink too much on road trips because I have to stop and tinkle every 30 minutes... and we were up in the mountains where it would have been me and a bush or rock! I sent him off today and I'm hoping I can keep out of the ice cream carton for comfort. I have a date with a chocolate chip bagel tonight, though! I may be good and stick to half of it so I can have the other half later. I have about 44 weeks until he comes home and I want to lose at least 48 more pounds... so I better get my butt in gear!!! :smile:

    I was expecting the same thing to have gained 5 lbs, especially since I stopped my water intake.exactly how you explained it, every 30 mins etc:laugh: I also started to get bloated after a week, since.......
    ok, I gotta vent. :mad:
    Why oh why....
    Some places they have the "turkish toilets". If your not sure what it is, go into google click on images and type in "turkish toilets".. I heard many stories about a hole in the ground. For a man to go #1, ok no problem, but.. that's IT!!! :mad:
    I've heard that women can "sorta get used to squating, bushes, out in public for #1, but these "toilets "are all porcelain, newer looking.. why would they install them.. it's just wrong. The wedding we were at, that's all these "toilets" were. The men's and womans. Imagine :explode: ... vent over....

    We did make sure we did alot of walking though. The car was parked for few days as we travelled to the next little cities/towns and of course walked through the shopping/restaurant area's and the beaches.

    Since I've been back, had lots of water to do some flushing and thought I would bump it up a notch and walk for 80 mins each day burning according to my Polar F6 (900 calories).

    Chocolate challenge... oh oh.....
    I have a saying for sweets/chocolates/cookies.

    If it's in the house, I'll eat it.
    If it's not in the house, I won't crave it.

    Well the fiancee brought some chocolates back from Europe.:embarassed: :glasses:

    So chocolate challenge it is!! This will be great for me seeing how I tend to snack on chocolate at work and home all the time.

    Good job everyone - Rach and Laura you rock!!!

    I am a tad frustrated after a 4 week loss of 10 pounds then nothing for a week now - still holding my own-still doing what I need to...will keep on - just thinking about how I felt this time last year and what I looked like is enough to keep me going.

    I'd be cheating you if I joined a no chocolate challenge-I haven't had any in - oh I don't remember when...
