    Id like to join in as well

    Im in a different time zone being in the southern hemisphere. but still need some support..

    Im feeling aweful at the moment as I have had a HUGE dinner today and no exercise. Work was long and tired.. the last thing I could think of was exercise let alone cooking anything decent. So I ate out (had a heavy creamy indian curry) and im really paying for it now.. Oh am I feeling FULL!!!

    boy am I kicking myself.. why do we do this to ourselves

    :sad:


    welcome :flowerforyou:

    Morning all. Today I have not started all that great as I didn't get to the gym but there is always later on today. I ate a smaller breakfast as a result. My 16 month old kept us up last night so I stayed in and slept. Yesterday finished off, I ate a bit more to get in my cals but it was popcorn..100 calorie and like a tbs of PB. I wonder if eating carbs like popcorn at 10pm is bad no matter how many cals one has eaten. Anyhoo, I wish yall the best today!

    Morning team!! Sorry I've been MIA for a few days!

    I spent Saturday at a local Marching Band Competition (I was a HUGE bandnerd back in HS). It was a blast. Sunday, hubs and I were both sunburnt and lazy, so we did NOTHING. lol But it's okay. I knew the weekend would be off track, because of all the junk food at the competition.

    Yesterday, we walked 2.5 miles in the rain. I loved it. I was able to walk it all without getting completely breathless, and was able to talk and walk at the same time, instead of huffing and puffing.

    All of you guys keep going... Look a week ahead and say, "I can do this by then". You are all wonderful.

    It's cold and rainy, and the last thing I want to do is get out and go to the gym.
    But I have to. It's that, or something here at home, and nothing is appealing at the moment.

    I got the Wii fit plus, and it's a lot of fun. The games are silly, and fun, and I would love to be able to just play those games, but I don't think the Wii fit is really meant to take the place of all other forms of exercise.
    Best case scenario -- I go the the gym and do a good 30 - 45 minutes or cardio. Do some upper body, then come home and play the Wii fit for a half hour or so.

    Water is not good so far. I've been drinking diet soda instead. So I'd better get on it, or I'll be in the bathroom all night if I wait to long to chug-a-lug.

    Everyone is doing great. We all hit snags and bumps in the road, but we have to figure out our way around them.

    Glad everyone is doing well.

    This is the first day I got in my calories before 10pm. So Maybe I can go to bed at a decent hour.

    Have a great night

    Good Morning everyone. I am pumped and ready to go this morning. I ate too much sodium yesterday but I will not today. That is my goal today, to not eat too much sodium. I want to drink my water, do my exercise, I am hoping that I a can get on my bike today, not sure if I will or not yet.

    Challenge today: 40 minutes of exercise, 64 oz of water.

    well today did not go as well as I thought it would, I ended up eating too many calories today, I am glad that tomorrow is a new day. I hope you all had a great day and did great.
