    It usually takes about 30 days to change a habit. Not because you need 30 days. You could do it in 68 seconds if you could once you did it hold your vibration there, but you have to consciously make that decision. --- Abraham

    I did NOT get in my workout yesterday due to my three yr old grandson coming for the weekend, then company showing up and then husband getting in late blah-blah-blah! I should have done it at 5 a.m and been done with!!! So needless to say I went over on calories!!! I am getting in my full body routine today NO MATTER what!!!!!! I wish you all a good day and an even better weekend!!

    I think I've blown this challenge, but I'm accepting it with grace. I have gained 0.8lbs over the course of 6 weeks worth of fluctuations. My goal is to be back at my starting point by Tuesday, without loss or gain, and then working harder on our next challenge, focusing more.

    My biggest problem is that as I lose weight, I've become complacent. I get so many compliments at this weight -- even though my BMI is still unhealthy -- and I feel so much better, sitting at a size 10, sometimes even a size 8!!! So I'm getting lazy because this size is kinda nice.... even though I still need to lose another 15-20 lbs to be healthy and at my goal weight.

    My ultimate goal weight is 135, btw. I am 5'4''. My healthy 'range' is 118-145. I figure 135 is a good goal.

    Hey everyone!

    I just finished my test :-) It was difficult. Praying I did well :-) I think i did, and I always give my best! I'm back to my starting weight. and have been eating pretty healthy. I'm going to clean up today and read my nutrition books since I finally have a break from the school work!!!! YAY!

    Also, my goal is to get into 130's by new years! All of my clothes are fitting much looser! And I feel better AND I'm fighting off the Winter Blues! so that's always great!

    Have a happy Friday everyone!

    I just did my Friday "accountable" weigh in and it said 147 ! That means I lost since Tuesday's weigh in BUT I will have to starve to hit my 5 # loss by Tuesday which was to be 145 !!! Oh Lord this is HARD !!!!! I am going to try two workouts a day "JUST" to see if I can do it! I did a 45 minutes of my Insanity Series workout this morning and burned 460 cals! That is one of the toughest series I have ever done! This morning was cardio and this afternoon is weightlifting! I will post through the weekend to stay accountable! I wish you ALL success and a great weekend!!!!

    Hello all! I didnt weigh in this week. I am having a hard time right now in life. I wont get into much of it but to say that I stress eat and I thought getting on the scale would be a bad, bad idea.

    I am, however, going on a vacation the end of March 2010 for a friends 40th birthday. We are heading to Vegas. I have been so many times but it has been 5 yrs since our last trip. I am super excited and dont want to be 190 something when I go. That is for sure!. I have a little less than 4 months to lose as much as my body will allow.

    So, next challenge I have no choice but to hit it hard and not use the holidays or my bday as an excuse to cheat.

    Great job ladies! I hope to get super aqquainted with the new members that started this challenge and re-aqquainted with the older members of the group.

    We are heading to the beach tonight and tomorrow we are cutting firewood. We need it. We have a threat of snow in the PNW next week. I live in a old house with no insulation and old windows, 1926 to be exact. Love its charm but not so much in the winter months! Then Sunday we are going out to find our tree. Cant wait. I need something to put me in the Christmas spirit!

    Have a great weekend ladies!

    PDX, I'm sorry to hear about your stress. I hope things are better for you soon. Vegas is pretty amazing. Everyone should experience it, at some time in their life. My girls had a few soccer tournaments there, and at one time it really cleaned up its act on the strip (no card flickers, etc). Unfortunately, it's back to how it used to be. I'd like to vacation there with adults only (and I wouldn't have to censor everything). That would be fun. Have a great time! And I hope you reach your goal for the trip.

    Susan- My sister Tiff, when she isn't busy can tell you more about the book bc she has actually finished it. Beck diet soln is about cognitive therapy to making your mind make conscious decisions. LOL.

    It teaches you to write down your reasons why you want to lose weight and to read them twice daily. Just so you don't forget
    Tells you to:

    Eat slowly
    Learn how hunger doesn't kill you
    Teaches you to defend the sabotaging thoughts like. Well its JUST ONE slice of cake when you should be thinking about your goals

    I love the book and I know its helping me. Im learning how powerful the mind is!!!

    PDX- we are here for you when you are ready. Miss you girlie

    Verda- You are doing well..... keep up the good work

    Well ladies.. Off to bed.

    Tamm
