My three goals are:

1. Eat less processed foods.
2. Try one or two new recipes a week from the skinnytaste.com website.
3. Lose 10 lbs.

This week I made Pumpkin Spice cookies & Shepards pie from skinnytaste. Both of them were YUMMY ~ :smile:

    10/01: 212.6
    10/04 - 213.2 (+0.6)
    10/11 - 212.6 (-0.6)

    Heading in the right direction, but would have liked a bigger loss. I haven't exercised this week other than walking, so I need to step it up and I have the Zumba class tomorrow.

    1. Get and STAY below 200 by Thanksgiving and through Christmas
    2. Only buy groceries for a few days worth of meals at one time (I keep too much food available, even if it's good food I eat it)
    3. Go to at least 1 Zumba class per week over the next 3 months

    Had a great weigh in this week! SW was 141. Yesterday I was at 139- go me!

    As far as my goals, I have been pretty consistent with exercising since I'm doing the Couch to 5K training, I STILL have not had any soda (boy, that one's tough), and I am working on adding a fresh fruit or veggie to each meal.

    Baking season is fast approaching so I sure hope I can keep this up. I already have friends and family submitting their special requests so I'm going to be a baking fool! Hopefully I can get things made and out of the house quickly this year.

    Hanging in there but just barely. Been busy with school and softball, just one more game and I'll have some spare time. Hope you all have a good weekend!

    I am sad, embarrased and generally miffed at myself from the last week. I am up several lbs from last week and it all happened over the past 4-5 days - and I know exactly why!

    I did not eat enough calories on these days.
    I did not go to the gym on these days (although I did get a bit of a workout at the Market and at home).
    I did not drink my normal 12-15 glasses of water these days.
    While I didn't eat extremely bad - I did not eat good!

    I had a little tantrum this morning and now I'm over it and ready to get back on top of things this week. Imay not ctach up by this Thursday's check-in - but shooting to get abck as close as I can!

    Challenge Goals:
    * Lose 10 lbs
    * Eat 2-3 servicing of produce each day
    * Gym (or home workout - 2-3 times a week
