    Thursday: 45 mins cardio, 2 glasses of water
    Friday: 45 mins cardio, 2 glasses of water... and I lost 2 pounds!! :happy: I'm halfway to my goal weight!

    Why don't I notice a difference in how my clothes are fitting? I have lost a total of 7 lbs but I can't tell other than what the scale says. Still can't fit into those darn jeans I bought 1.5 years ago. I don't know where my weight loss is coming from! I guess I should have been measuring myself each week at weigh-ins.

    Good morning, TEAM! :smile:
    I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving! It sounds like you did...I sure did! I did some major cooking Wednesday and only had the turkey to do Thursday morning. I was all delicious and I overdid it on dessert. :sad: I haven't exercised since Wednesday, so I'm not looking forward to seeing the scale but I'm going to the gym this morning to get back on track.
    I usually don't do the Black Friday sales...I don't care for crowds and the one time I braved it before, I didn't enjoy it because the shoppers were so rude. It wasn't fun, so I just don't do it anymore.
    We spent yesterday putting up the Christmas tree and decorating the house. I guess I got some exercise in with the cooking and decorating....lol...but still, I was bad and I really need to get back to the gym!
    I'll be updating the spreadsheet later today. As for the new layout, I don't like it much...probably because it's new. It's going to take some getting used to.

    Everyone enjoy your day! :happy:

    Good Morning team!!:smile:

    Hope you all had a nice weekend! I haven't exercised since Thursday so I am ready to get back into things!:bigsmile: I want to work really hard this week since last week was so weird. I want to try to lose at least 8 pounds by this time next month. And I'll be starting the couch to 5k in two weeks! So I am excited to try something new out and hopefully it will keep me from going on another plateau.:noway:

    What do you guys think about those new reebok shoes? I thought they looked cool and i'd like to try them out. I thought they might be good to use when i am doing the couch to 5k. I asked my boyfriend for them for christmas :blushing: :laugh: I was reading reviews and peple were saying they didnt lose any weight or any inches but it def. helped tone that area up. any thoughts?

    well have a fantastic Monday everyone! be strong this week!! :flowerforyou: :glasses: :drinker:

    Good morning everyone.

    So I was good on Thursday and Friday but I was bad Saturday and ok on Sunday. No exercise Sat or Sun and definetly went over on calories on Sat. I was going to get back on track this morning, but I overslept. I am going to walk at lunch and hopefully get in a workout tonight, plus being back at work makes me stick to my calories - even though I just saw an Einstein Bagel bag go by for a meeting - yikes.

    Good news - I lost 1 pound since last weeks weighin so I am back down to 133.

    Ariel - maintaining is great. Get back on track this week with exercise and calories. I haven't actually seen or researched the Rebok shoes so I can't help

    Karen - thanks for the spreadsheet. We have a little over 3 weeks til Christmas so get back into it for 3 weeks so that you have a wonderful Christmas without regrets

    AMM - you are doing great. I normally lose in my bra first - so have you seen any changes there? Your body is probably shifting and you just haven't seen the changes yet but I am sure it is happening. Keep up the workouts and calories and you will see the changes

    lmr9 - welcome back. if you don't want to weigh in don't that way you aren't upset if you did go overboard, but make sure you stick to your calories, water intake, and workouts for the week

    Hey - I say we all make a committment to keep all 3 this week - 8 glasses of water, workout at least 4 times this week, and no going over calories (but eat at least half your exercise calories). Let's see if we can all drop 1 pound this week.

    Who's in???:smile:

    I'm in Kim!! I am really ready to push myself this week to make up for last week!!:wink::drinker: I'll have to find a way to get in at least 1400 calories today, since i didnt get to eat lunch. i had a job interview during my lunch hour and i didnt bring anything to eat. so i'm hoping to can make up for it later but i have a feeling i wont be able to eat that much later on.... lol:laugh: i'm going to try though. and i will make sure i get at least 1400 calories the rest of this week! plus i'm going to exercise for 70 mins every day! even friday! i dont know about the weekend yet, they are usually my rest days, but i will do at least 30 mins on Saturday and Sunday! I really want the last 25 pounds to come off so I am totally driven!:drinker: :bigsmile: :glasses:

    I'm in for December!!!
    Welcome back, lmr!!! We missed you and hope you had an awesome vaca/holiday! :happy:
    amm - I agree with Kim, you are probably shifting and haven't noticed it yet. Don't get discouraged - you'll start seeing/feeling it any day now! :flowerforyou:
    Ariel - I can tell you are very motivated to lose the last 25...go for it - you can do it!!!! Good luck on your prospective new job!!! I have seen the new Boks - they look great! I'm wondering if they work, though. . .
    Kim - Congrats on your 1lb...that's GREAT during Thanksgiving!!!

    Okay, I'm comitting to 8 water, 5 workouts and all cals+wo cals this week. I'm like you, lmr, I'm not getting on the scale until this weekend. I know I bombed last week and through the weekend!!! :sad: The great thing is, I have all of you to help me get back into it. LOL...

    Have a great day, everyone...B strong! :happy:
