    Can I suggest we do a new post every Wednesday? The threads get SOOOO long when everyone posts on the same one every week... is that ok with everyone?

    Since we're posting food and exercise too, we should just do a new one every day... I think anyway :blushing:

    Dinner post workout...

    Panera 1/2 greek salad, 1/2 turkey sandwich (no cheese or mayo), and a cup of their veggie soup. Even with that and a pre-workout snack of fiber one cereal with activia yogurt, I still have 185 calories left for the day. If I am still hungry, I may have some fruit or something.

    I hear you on this one - it is SOOOO good! I'm a mac-n-cheese fan with mash potatoes and green beans (sounds weird, but I love it!)

    Here is some motivational qoutes I came across...Good Luck everyone!\

    Quotes to keep you going in the gym
    Dimity McDowell


    OK, it's not always your brain's fault that you find yourself back in the locker room before you've completed your planned workout. Sometimes you just wuss out. We polled 100 women to find out the sweet nothings they whisper to themselves when they want to quit but know there's still gas in the tank. Add them to your mental arsenal during your next strength or cardio session


    "I never regret it when I do it, but I always regret it when I don't."
    -- Devin McDonald Vinson, 37, Portland, OR

    "Don't judge it, just do it."
    -- Kathleen Johnston, 48, Nashville, TN

    "Kill…Kill…Kill. The. Hill." (You say the words to match your feet hitting the ground, and it creates a rhythm for you to fall into. A little violent, but hey, it works.)
    -- Rita Buscher, 21, Boston, MA

    "KMF: Keep Moving Forward"
    -- Laura Staub, 34, San Francisco, CA

    "This run (or hill or these bicep curls) is bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S!"
    -- Sarah McDougal, 31, Denver, CO (to the tune of "Hollaback Girl," by Gwen Stefani)

    "If you don't focus on your *kitten*, no one else will."
    -- Cristina Goyanes, 27, Women's Health associate editor, New York City

    "A strong outside strengthens the inside."
    -- Selene Yeager, 38, Emmaus, PA

    -- Samantha Denny, 37, Jackson Hole, WY

    "What's for dinner: something warm and cheesy?"
    -- Sue Piccone, 38, Salt Lake City, UT

    "Beat, beat, beat, beat, fast little feet feet."
    -- Marit Fischer, 36, Salt Lake City, UT

    -- Kristen Lowery, 35, Colorado Springs, CO (used in yoga class)

    "Can I get some fries with that shake-shake booty? If looks could kill you would be an Uzi."

    So I think that having a list of all challengers, their current weight, goal weight, and after this week the weight lost/gained will be a good tool to summarize everyone’s progress.

    i think it'd be great to show the total amount of weight we've lost every week as a group and the total weight lost as a group since today. By the end of this I bet we'll lose like a couple whole people! I could be in charge of that math if you guys want!

    Sure, why not? I'll keep a list going each week like the one I just posted and if you want to tally the numbers, that would be great. I get motivated when I see significant changes and a group change would be really motivating for me!

    Is it too late to join?
    I am currently 152lbs.
    My real goal is 135lbs.
    My July 1st goal is 140lbs.

    I have NEVER been able to diet/exercise below 146lbs.
    But this time I will do it!
