20 th July new group

patty09

Hi

Well done January
I feel like starting right from the beginning again.
Goal for this week is 3 times a week exercise and 2 liters of water a day.
I also did/do the couch 2 5 K. On the cross trainer is is much harder than on a track.
Indoors you can see if you keep up your speed, on the track you can;t but I did both.
once on the track and 2 times indoors.
I ended at week 5 3 weeks ago so I will pick it up at week 4 again next week

Lets do it again
Any new weigh ins ????

Patty

Hi Everyone! I was up a little but I knew it would be. You can't go four days without logging in your calories! New week, fresh start! Hope everyone has a great week. Let's move!

Goodmorning

It's monday morning and a new fresh start for me. I nearly gained all the 7lb that I had lost. Absolutely my own mistake. Eating out of (what shall I call it )depression ???
Very Bad habit

I know I can do it so here I go again:drinker:
Well done for all those who nearly at their goal weight, for the others keep it up.

I updated our website
(http://sites.google.com/site/julystarters/)
for the ninth week but a lot have dropped out.
For last friday i only received 2 weigh ins!!
Shall I stop or continue? We nearly have to start a new tread at 20 pages/
We could continue under the same name or start on as " New Years Even Goal 2009"

For those who's name was not on the list or not any more, sorry maybe I made a mistake please update me.

Come on, join us, inspire us lets do it together!!!

What shall we do!

Eava57

I want to stay in the group. Let's keep it going. I thought I had sent you my weight but couldn't remember if I did it or "thought" I did...some of us are at the great stage of life that begins with an M!
Have a great day, Patty!
As for us on this side of the world...good night!:yawn:

Patty, Please keep this group going. I usually weigh in on Wednesdays. and I have lost 11 pounds since July. Like you I am an emotional eater. Like others in the group I am not into exercise. I never have been. This group is important to me. I am a computer illiterate and thus my postings are plain but I started out at 170 and now am 159. . I am grateful to each of you for your honest postings. I have failed so many times at this fight, knowing I can come here for encouragement is important. Thanks to all of you. hugs, Richie

angl

Lets all hang in there together....We are not quitters!!!!
Not sure why we need to start a new thread...just click on the last page and post....
I have noticed there are many days without any postings but we all have lives to live.
Im in......

Oh we have to keep this group going:frown: I need it to keep going

Just got back from a skirmish at "Bob Evan's" Restaurant and I won! I ordered my favorite and only ate a small portion but all of the salad. Good thing the entree alone was one thousand four hundred and seventeen calories! God Bless all of you for your helpful hints. The garlic bread was 195 calories. Oh my goodness Thank goodness I could share it with my very skinny friend that went out with me! I don't think I did too much damage maybe 100 calories over the limit.

Hugs to all, Richie

:drinker: crruising along we had a birthday party at work today and I was pretty good. I am starting to believe that maybe I can keep that Thanksgiving goal if I think about what it is I am eatting and the calories . Hugs to all Richie. Pattty I will start letting you know my weight on Friday thanks for taking care of us.

Good luck, I think you just lived what I fear the most! You can do it We are approaching the sweet holidays YIKES I am going to need you guys more then ever!

Eava57

Let's keep each other going! The holidays are almost here. How about the Turkey Challenge....Everyone try to lose at least 5 lbs. by then. For some this is easy but for me....every pound is like a 10 lb. sack of potatotes. Hang in there. NHC (No Halloween Candy!):grumble:

Hello everyone I have not posted since September 16th, but I did manage to lose 2 pounds. :flowerforyou:

I am so happy about that. I will continue on down from here.

Congratulations to those who lost and also to those who did not lose but gave it your best shot. That is all that we can do. Let us all continue on working toward our goals..

spiralgirl71

Hi! Just checking in. I'm still following my eating and workout out schedule. I am only going to be weighing in once a month for the next few months. I've noticed that the Chalean Extreme makes my weight go up and down and it was beginning to get frustrating. I'll try to post my results each month.

I am going to catch up on the posts. Hope everyone is well!

chrissey

Hello all...my weight...well, stalled......I actually gained 1 lb...totally MY fault..I ate everything that I knew I shouldn't and tons of it...today is a new day!! I was so close to being UNDER 200 I could taste it..but I just got too confident...damn it..no one to blame but myself!!

Eava57

spiragirl and Chrissey, great to hear from you. I know I play mind games with the scale too! I went back to CURVES this week. I am going to try to leave work early and go workout! Turkey Day Challenge is on!!!!:laugh:

richardsrm

:mad: I am also mad at myself. but I too will jump on the wagon once again. Not sure if I gained weight but the junk food got me but at least it was just for on evening and not an entire day.....babysteps. Twelve weeks went by fast. I feel better and my knees don't hurt.

eleven pounds lost........I think see how much damage the mixed nuts and cheetos did......can't believe I was so dumb:yawn:

Eava57

richardssrm, You're human! We all have those days. Congrats on losing 11 lbs. My father-in-law use to say..."Think of it as a sack of potatoes"! Visual Cues can be helpful. Keep going. Let's all try to get through this month. I bought "yucky" candy so I wouldn't eat it. Not working too well!:blushing:
Good luck this weekend to all!!!!

Hello All,

Just want to check in. I still want to be a part of the group and will do better to stay in touch going forward. I've been really swamped at work as it is budget preparation time for me. I've been exercising really well, however not doing good with counting my calories. That is changing now. I am going to start logging again tomorrow and the next time that I check in it will be nothing but good news.

Let's all hang in there....we can and will get the unecessary weight off.

richardsrm

Holding steady Hope to get in more exercise this weekend. Fall has arrived in upstate new york. The leaves are so beutiful. Thanks for the encouraging words ditto to everyone. hugs Richie

angl

Where are all the Friday weigh in?? I am down .5 and hanging in there.
We can not be supportive to each other if no one is posting.
I know life can sometimes get in the way of weight loss.
Love to hear from ya all

Jiggle bits you have inspired me I thinke I will get the kids dressed and take a walk, kick up some of those leaves now that my knees don't hurt, AMAZING wjhat a few pounds off will do for you! Hugs to all! Richie
