    Yesterday was NUTS! I earned 525 exercise calories, and STILL went over by 600 calories.

    Lesson of the day: Do not eat what the husband eats! Seriously, we spent most of the day together and I ate like bachelor all day long: Buffalo wings, beer, french fries... :blushing:

    Today I'm back on track, and I'm thinking about not eating back any workout calories to make up for yesterday. Bleh. :grumble: Hopefully my scale doesn't blow up tomorrow.

    We all have those days. 600 extra calories won't blow all your hard work. :wink:

    On those days where im home with the boyfriend and he's eating stuff like that. I try to eat celery and laughing cow or peanut butter, drink water instead of beer, and you can have chicken just do baked chicken breast strips and dunk them into fat free ranch dressing..

    Had oatmeal for breakfast, and then went out to lunch with the girls. I opted for the salad bar, and half way through my salad I found a HAIR!!!:sick: That's definitely one way of making sure you don't over-eat... Ugh.

    I have a class at the gym and volleyball tonight. I'll be really disappointed if I don't show a difference tomorrow! Good luck everyone!

    Banana and peanut butter is DELICIOUS. Or, in my case, banana and soy nut butter. But ya know.

    Resa -- OH. EW. :indifferent: That is disgusting. You may have kept me from over-eating tonight, just by sharing that story...lol!

    Success! Small success (-.5 lbs) - but with TOM here -I'm not too disappointed. So, 10 weeks to go and I have 13 lbs until my TD goal. I think I can still do that - but I want to step it up for the next couple of weeks so I don't have loads to lose the last few weeks. Think I'm going to cut out more carbs - not carb free, but getting out the South Beach cookbook to get some ideas for low carb breakfasts.

    BTW - are we still doing the crunch challenge this week? I've been doing my core workout and I am FEELING it! Which is good as my core is my weak spot, always. Anyone else? Still drinking all of my water every day. Keep it up everyone!! Good luck today.

    08/27/09 - 168.5 (starting)
    09/03/09 - 165.5 (-3 lbs)
    09/10/09 - 165.5 (-0-)

    A bit frustrated. I have been weighing myself through out the week and had been down a lb, but the inlaws made a surprise visit so I haven't been able to get my workouts in and we had been going out to eat:grumble: . Plus I have not been sleeping well.:frown: They are leaving later today so then I will getting some extra workouts in!

    On another note, I have been keeping up with my water and my crunches. So That is something I guess. It will help in the long run!

    Current Weight: 179

    I lost another pound this week :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    Current weight
    127
    Thanksgiving goal
    124
    Goal weight
    118

    I've done great drinking at least 64 ounces of water a day
    I've done crunches on alternate days but maybe not as many as I could because I've had years of back problems and don't want to take any chances but I'll gradually add more.

    I'm looking forward to hearing from the rest of you.:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    Happy Thursday Weigh-In, everybody! It looks like everyone is doing GREAT! Keep up the AWESOME work!

    I don't know how this happened, and I am wary to believe the scale, but...

    Last Week - 196
    This Week - 192 ( -4 loss )
    Turkey Day Goal - 183

    :noway: I feel like it's not possible! Is there any way to check to make sure your scale is working?

    checking in...

    no change this week...
    last week 161
    current 161

    BUT my pants feel loose AND my abs look sleeker from all the crunches!!! I think I just might start measuring myself! And I've asked my husband to hide the scale until check in (first thing in the morning is the BEST number!) since I get on it every day and don't feel like I'm making any progress with all the fluctuations!!

    Good job everybody! Keep up the good work!!!
