    My motivational quote and thought for today is: "It is more important to know where you are going than to get there quickly. Do not mistake activity for achievement."

    Know that the weight will come off. Focus on your goal! I have always said, "Slow and steady is the way to go." You are making progress (activity) it's great, but remember that you are in this to reach goal (achievement). Try not to get complacent when you reach a certain point...I've done it and sat in the 180s and 190s for over a year!!! I need to make sure that I don't fall into the same pattern with the 160s! I've been here about a month and a half....losing and gaining the same 5 pounds over and over again!!!:frown:

    Today's a new day, and I'm striving for achievement!!!!:smile:

    I think I will be guilty of this in the future. :embarassed: I got down to the 170's before and just stayed there for about 6 months before the weight started to climb again with pregnancy. I was no longer extremely self-conscious or uncomfortable with the way I looked so I was like GREAT - BREAK TIME. Didn't work out so great :frown:

    But this time around I hope to actually get down to my health BMI and stay there. This group will really help! :bigsmile:

    Have I been banned already??? Am I not on the list any more?:sad: :sad:


    Well Ms Sassything...... I'm at 176 even. UGH!!! Not good considering but it could've been worse.

    Doing my fruit flush this week, so I can start next week if you want. Not sure how this thing will turn out. Today is not bad....mainly shakes and then a protein and salad tonight for dinner.

    Gotta get back to work.

    Ok I am here for my weigh in... I had to make the babies breakfast and set them up with activities so I could clean and work out.
    My Weigh in is 216.8

    My goal for this week is to loose 2lbs.

    Great Info every one that posted some. I am going to have to go back read all the info more carefully... My mom has a book called the low carb bible I am going to ask her if I can borrow when she comes and visits me on wednesday. My sister found out she was diabetic when she was 17 and my mom put her on a low carb diet and she lost sooo much weight so fast... I was like wow I have to do that! lol.

    <3 && Good luck to all

    Hey, sorry, puter here at work was giving me fits!

    SW 265.8 today, GW 262.8

    I managed to get a ticker done and a picture uploaded to my profile, still got some learning to do about this site.

    I was disappointed in the tickers they have on here - I wanted to do one just for a minigoal, and I had to go back and change my overall goals to do that - kind of a pain in the butt - anyone have any other ideas? Can we use tickers from Tickerfactory?

    Sassy - how tall are you? I think we might be the same height because my healthy BMI (at the high end) is 141 and I'm 5'3.

    Wesley's down for his nap, so time to exercise. Back later ladies! :drinker:
