I'd like to join with the group if that's ok ...I had to take a 2month break from the site...but I managed to lose 2lbs during those 2 months and still have another 9lbs to go and would love some extra daily challenges not to mention a nice support group with wonderful people in it0

Welcome Babygirl, the more the merrier. If you have read through the posts you can see that we post daily and you have to meet 4 of the 5 challenges to remain in the "running" and if you are successful in completing 5 of 5 challenges for three consecutive days you earn a "pass".
Since I've completed my exercise for today and have logged all my food for the day I feel pretty good that I will make 5 of the 5 challenges but I won't claim victory until later b/c you know......LIFE HAPPENS. If I am successful I would have earned my first pass for the week. This thread has really helped me stay motivated.
Good luck w/losing your last 9 lbs.0 -

wow, posting and logging was a challenge for me today. it is soooo cold out and nasty. all i want to do is hibernate.
but:
i logged everything
ate to lose
drank like 12 cups again and i think i'll have a little more
worked out for an hour.
finished logging posting! earned a grace day! hopefully i'll be able to just bank it. and not use it.
ken is gone thru sunday night and the boys are both really missing him. Kristian can understand, but tyler just keeps asking for "ba-ba" (daddy) adn you can't really explain thta to a two year old.
i thought about a second workout tonight but talked myself out of it. to my detriment i suppose. it wasn't the working out even, i didn't want to change clothes again after a shower.
enough about me!
everyone is doing so well! i'm glad you all like this thread, i know it really helps me to know i have to log and post every night.0 -
I totally fell off the wagon tonight! Ahhh!! I guess I am out for the week. I will keep posting. I am not sure what happened, I just lost all resolve this evening.
Have a good night!0 -

Ladies, You all are AWESOME!!!! I'm so glad to see so many people are meeting the 5 out of 5 challenges. Just think you've earned a grace day to be banked later when you might really need it. For those of you who may have had a difficult week I'm glad to learn you're not throwing in the towel. Continue to post and you'll be right back in the thick of things before you even know it.
I'll check in w/you all later b/c I have to get ready for a meeting.0 -

whew! thank goodness for an hour of excersize today! i would have been WAY over if i hadn't.
but i did, and got 5/5:
logged every last bite
stayed just barely under calories
worked out for an hour. (i am really sore, and i LIKE it!)
went to dinner with one of my best friends and her family before she heads back to college tomorrow.
AND i took my scale, which i am addicted to, to a friends house and took the batteries out. i've been obsessing about weighing everyday. so i won't weigh for 30 days, or the first of february. i wanted to make it 90, but i'm not sure i can handle that. i just need to break that.0 -
I would like to join. I just joined this yesterday so I have completed all my goals for 2 days but know it's going to get harder trying to stay gun ho. I am going on a cruise on the 28th of this month want to loose as much as possable and still be sensible. I have tried to loose weight by myself but don't stay motivated so I hope this works. Good luck to everyone!0
