    Hey Barbies,

    Hope u all have a great day today!! I ate way too much yesterday! but i am all planned for today so i am hoping to have a much better day! I am going to start planning my meals for the whole week so that i don't have a chance to mess up! One day at a time right! :flowerforyou:

    I did this yesterday and it worked SO well for me!! I pre planned my food and exercise, and only ate 32 of my work out calories. At the end of day I had 1354 calories left over!!! I was so excited, this was a huge accomplishment for me. :bigsmile:

    Whoo Hoo! For some freak of a reason I weighed in at 209.8 today! So I only have .8 to hit my goal for this week! I am not sure how it happened but I will take it! I have been eating really well but I still wasn't expecting that when i stepped on the scale this morning! I think breastfeeding is really speeding up my weight loss.

    hopin2bUSN- I am sure that weight will fall off once you get going, its probably mostly water weight!

    Congrats to everyone doing well and sticking to the program! I hope everyone has a great day!

So today hope to do a little better. i think I am gonna just try to keep up on the exercise at the moment. Really need to get to the gym. I dont think walking a mile and half is gonna be enought

    I have a confession! LOL. I've been bad, and I need to be forgiven.

    So my weigh in # that I posted is from Friday morning. (That's when I weigh in.) An amazing 192.

    Wellllllll, let's just say I had a very beer and food filled weekend. Sunday night I stepped on the scale 199. EEEEEK! Usually by Wednesday the scale is back to normal after a naughty weekend. Not this time. I'm up at 196 this morning. I'm so mad at myself. I knew better, but I did it any way.

    My "official" weigh in day isn't until Friday, but I don't see a loss AT ALL. More than likely a gain. (GR!) To make matters worse, I haven't been getting my workouts in due to the fact that I hurt my foot 2 weeks ago. I did manage to get a walk in yesterday with my kiddo, I'm hoping to do it again today.... but dang.

    I feel fat. :o(

    I just needed to vent.

    Some weeks are just like that! You can do this! And please don't be too hard on yourself since you are injured :(. Soon your inner barbie will be released!

    So, I'm starting a two times a week 80 minute water aerobics class on Thursday at the college! Can anybody here tell me what those are like? I looked it up on the exercise log and it says I'd burn about 550 calories in 80 minutes...WOW! True??
    *~Excited!~*

    I have taken many water aerobics classes and they do kick you butt but are lots of fun. What a great plan for you to start with since the water also helps lessen the impact to your joints.

    I went to the gym in the morning did my usual workout of circuit and cardio. When my husband got off work he wanted to go hit the gym so I went back and did a yoga class and stayed for zumba!

    The God's must be smiling on my family. Today my husband (who also needs to lose about 100 lbs) said to me, let's all go walking twice a day. He found a mile path that we can walk close to home. I was surprised and happy. I've wanted us all to do it together for awhile now so that we can be accountable and be active together. :) Our goal is to do 3 miles twice a day. We are going to try it this evening with all 6 of us, should be fun. And to comment on eating exercise calories, I usually don't just depends on if I'm hungry or not, I'm listening to my body more now. And if it's past 9 o'clock forget it, I'm not eating a thing past then. Good luck to all you PSB'ers! We are doing great I think. :)

    How is Zumba? I've been thinking about switching gyms and the one I ant to go to offers a lot more classes, including this. My current one is closer to home (and my mom goes as weel, so that has played a big factor), but doesn't have any fun classes!
