Amy-- wow!! you are a real inspiration to all of us :flowerforyou:

and ugh what a day for me today! i had to go the the dentist's at 7:10 in the morning so i wouldn't be late for an exam at 8:30... i didn't get to eat breakfast! so then i couldn't eat for 30 mins after, AND i couldn't eat til after the exam. fast forward to 10:00am, and i felt like crap! plus, i had pictures for a band i had to take. needless to say, i was NOT looking my best lol. i tried to eat but for some reason my stomach hurt like heck and i couldn't get more than half a muffin (a healthy muffin ) down... i felt so bad that i had to beg to take my next exam early (something i would never in my life do) just so i could book it home and lay on the couch!! i'm really wondering why i feel so horrible today... ohwell. the only good thing is i have 1,000 calories still, so i'm sure when i can eat again i can stay in my calorie range haha!

hope everyone has had a better day than me lol

Im so confusded my thing says I weighed 140 last friday but I remember 141 and thinking all I have to do is get to 140 this week and I have lost a pound. But this does not show what i remember. FRUSTRATING! Maybe I just went up so much because of my bad weekend last weekend when we went sledding! I hate the weekends, I really do. So basically I stayed the same or I put on 1 pound in 2 days(last weekend) and lost it this week. AHHHHH! Oh well I am off to do three classes at they , 30 minute ab, 30 minute cycling and 1 hour weight. Especially since I did all that work on monday 2 classes that kicked my butt. aaagghhh ok im frustrated and off to the gym have a good day all

Nicmc8

I just weighed in and I have reached my first 10lb lost goal! Hope everyone has a great weekend! I will be working, which is good for me because it is easier to stay on track with the food:)

I would like to join! My name is Kati and I just had my first son in September 2009 and looking to get back in shape. My goal is year long and I would like to lose 100 pounds and get back to my highschool weight!! Took me 11 years to put it on, but I am determined to get it off alot faster!! I have been going strong on my diet for about 2 weeks now and still doing well, actually looking for extra foods to eat to hit my cals for the day on some days. This weekend I am going to introduce a work out plan to my daily schedule and hope to lose weight alot faster than the 2 pounds I have lost so far. Can't wait for the support and topics to come. I just love this website!!!

NewBeginning2010

WELCOME TO ALL THE NEW COMERS WE ARE HAPPY TO HAVE YOU.

WELL MY DAD IS NOT GOING WELL. I STARTED TO WEIGH ON THE SCALE AND IT SAID 222 WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN THE SAME AS LAST WEEK WHICH MADE ME HAPPY CONSIDERING WHEN I GOT ON MID WEEK IT SAID 224. BUT I WAS SO EXCITED TO SEE THAT 222 I GOT ON AGAIN AND THEN ONCE MORE AND IT SAID 224....

SO I PULLED OUT THE SCALE THAT I HAD BEFORE THAT I HATED AND THAT ONE WAS EVEN WORSE I PUT IT AWAY AND SAT ON THE COUCH. i THOUGHT I WENT ON VACATION AND STAYED WITHIN MY CALORIES I THOUGHT WHY BOTHER MAKING LUNCH....I COULD EAT WHAT I WANT TO GAIN WEIGHT.....AND THEN I THOUGHT I CANT GIVE UP SUMMER IS COMING AND I DONT WANT TO BE MISERABLE...

SO I PACKED MY LUNCH ONLY TO CUT MY APPLE AND THEN GO TO TAKE THE CORE OUT AND MY HAND SLIPPED AND I STABBED MYSELF DEEP WITH THE BUTCHER KNIFE....IT WOULDNT STOP BLEEDING...SO I HAVE IT WRAPPED FOR PRESSURE AND JUST TRYING TOP MAKE THE BEST OF MY DAY HERE AT WORK....IM NOT CHANGING MY WEIGHT ON MY TICKER IM JUST LEAVING IT TIL NEXT WEEK.....IT WILL MAKE ME MORE UPSET SO HOPEFULLY THAT IS OK....

I WAS TOLD BY COWORKERS THAT DRINKING DIET SODA IS WHATS KEEPING ME FROM LOSING WEIGHT. i DO DRINK ALOT OF WATER THOUGH TOO....ANY INSIGHT?

Myth

New Begining

I feel your pain. Basically I am in the same boat, the same as last week.I think we gained and over the weekend/vacation but we lost it. Also the First thing I can advise never do it twice! Every time I do I am mad. lol As for the soda I dont know I dont drink Diet I cant do the after taste,lol. My vice is a little coffee with my sugar,lol. I am sorry for your frustration and I hope this week goes easy and do not give up! You can do this.

chipgal

I weighed on my new scale this morning and I am the same weight as the Dr had me at last week. Guess that is ok as I have not begun any activity to help counting calories. (And several days I was over on calories) Glad to have all the new posters keeps things interesting. and I love the fact that Myth has time to write messages to everyone. lol

Keltinator

first off, a great big hello to spiritinthesky, kmoyers, libragoddess, and lauren

so, i feel a lot better today. not only that, but i just found out i scored 90% on one of the exams i took yesterday :indifferent: maybe i shoud take them while i'm sick more often lol.

jaymie--i nwant a "say no to food muscle" haha

nicmc--ten pounds! that's awesome.. i can't wait until i hit that marker as well. cheers to you!

newbeginning--i know what you mean about scales. that's why i'm making a point of not stepping on one at all except once a week. i don't care that it might be inaccurate, but that way i feel i won't get discouraged as often, and only see the big picture! and yes, keep thinking of summer. that's my inspiration, too. i wanna wear short shorts and a tank top and look hot like all the other people my age i know!! and it's totally ok not to change you ticker for a week in my opinion.

i also hope your hand is ok! i've crushed a finger before and it's amazing how much a hand can bleed! and as for the diet soda, i find that soda in general just makes me feel bloated and horrible in even small quantities (and yet, sometimes i still drink it anyways..) i think it's better just to cut out soda in general. if i want a sugary beverage, i choose juice.

Myth

hey chipgal

you know you just cursed me! lol next week Ill probably have little time to write anyone just cause you aid that lol

Myth

Hey newbegining,

I was wondering about doing a challange next week for every one? At our Ymca some time in Dec they had this thing where for the first week you had to have atleast 2 salads, the next week keep the 2 salads but add fruit for a snack twice a week.... things like that. I as wondering about your thoughts on that for this group??? :happy:

NewBeginning2010

MYTH THATS SUPER SWEET OF YOU TO ASK ME! I THINK ITS A GREAT IDEA (SNEAK SOMETHING WITH NO SODA IN THERE
:laugh: )
