Happy Thursday all! I have to admit that I'm pretty disappointed that we went from almost a dozen initial folks down to only 3 or 4 checking in each week. But, that is just how it goes in MFP sometimes. I know there are a few who haven't been back to MFP for over a month to log in, and others who moved on to other challenges. I am happy though for the couple of you who are sticking it out with me. And, if it ends up being only me...well then I stil have to be accountable to myself anyway!!
So I'm not sure what is going on with me, but my eating has not been great and while I'm getting in a walk here and there, I've been to the gym maybe twice in the last 3 weeks. Dealing with some stress and apparently, not well. But I have been dropping for the last couple of weeks - and so I feel good about that. I also think how much better I would be doing if I was truly on track. SO that is my goal for this coming week!
Challenge Goals:
* Lose 10 lbs - Update: Down 2.4 lbs for this challenge!!
* Eat 2-3 servicing of produce each day - Update: not there yet, but working on it.
*Gym (or home workout - 2-3 times a week - Update: only getting to the gym once a week, but working out at home to get my 3 sessions in for week.
Weigh in:
9/27/12: 303.8 lbs.
10/4/12: 303.2 lbs (-.6)
10/11/12: 307.8 (+4.6 lbs - weigh in actually 10/16)
10/18/12: 304.0 (down 3.8)
10/25/12: 303.0 (down 1 lb)
11/1/12: 302.0 (down 1 lb)
11/8/12: 301.4 (down .6 lb)

My three goals are:
1. Eat less processed foods ~ this is a real struggle for me. I didn't realize up until a few months ago how much stuff I do eat that is processed. Everyday I try to eat less.
2. Try one or two new recipes a week from the skinnytaste.com website ~ didn't try a new recipe this week.
3. Lose 10 lbs.
Well, I am totally sucking at all my goals ! I have been slipping back into some old habits and I am desperately trying to regroup and get back with it. I am still logging in everyday so I haven't completely fallen off the face of the earth ! LOL..

Hello everyone!
My three goals are:
My 3 goals by Christmas are:
1. Eat more fruits and vegetables
2. Eat less junk and soda (before summer I was getting good at it, I picked these bad habits back up over the summer. I am having trouble rekicking the habit again)
3. Start doing more strength training and do some jogging intervals
I am not doing so great with the first 2. But, I have started with the 30 day shred and done some jogging intervals.
Since I started my 30 shred dvd last week, I decided not to weigh myself until I am done with it. When it is over, I am going reweigh myself, do measurements and pictures. I did all of that last week.
My goal for this week is definitely improve working on my goals.0 -
Hello all! I feel like I'm doing ok with my initial goals of no soda, adding more fruits and veggies, and being consistent with exercise. I signed up for a winter running group so hopefully that will keep me motivated through the holidays. I've already baked two things today so my diet is going to be my biggest challenge.

Hi Everyone - I'm still plugging along. Down another pound, really pushing myself with the water but still find it hard to drink more than 4-6 glasses a day without feeling like I'm going float away. still struggling with the exercise but I got my pool membership renewed and I start back swimming tomorrow, hopefully that will be a positive change toward that goal. Only 10lbs to reach my goal of 238 by New Years, still do-able but even if takes me a little longer that's OK, it's all about being a better healthier me not what a scale says and when.

So very excited today! For the first time in weeks, the scale has moved. I was really beginning to think is was broken since it would never drop below 139. Proud to announce today that I am at 138! I know one pound is not the triumph of the century but I haven't seen a change for five weeks so I'm overjoyed!!!0
