    Hi I'm Cheryl. I'm 37 years old and have been struggling with trying to lose weight for a few years. I'm trying to find something that really works for me. I think I am consuming too much sugar, but hopefully maintaining with MFP will help me out. I joined about 3 weeks ago and absolutely love it. I'm trying to plan my meals more. Although, I haven't had meat in about the last 2 months, I'm still in a rut. Fluctuating between 200 - 198 lbs. I don't eat fast foods or drink anything other than water. I may have a 1/2 cup of juice once/week. It's tough, but I know I can do it. Thanks for creating this. Good Luck to us all!!!

    Goal:

    1. Got to get healthier for my and my children (14yr daughter , 12 yr son)
    2. Stop making excuses and just do at least 30 min activities every day
    3. Plan Meals
    4. Lose 5 lbs this month

    Hi Ladies,

    Tomorrow will mark "week 2" for Mama back on track challenge. I'm weiging in a day early because of the hurricane - we may lose power. This week I lost 3 pounds for a total of 8.8 pounds so far. Yay. I'm feeling so much better. I have more energy and I feel so much happier. Thank you to the creator of this challenge - this was just what I needed! :smile:

    It was a .2 lb loss. Normally I would be bummed that it was only a point 2 loss but since the previous weeks were a 4.6 and a 3.3 lb losses I was ok with it. I'm thrilled that the last 3 weeks were going down.

    Good morning ladies!

    First of all, the peeps in the line of hurricane Sandy, I hope you all remain safe!!! I will keep you guys in my thoughts & prayers.

    Secondly, I would like to report my stats.

    I started last Monday, 10/22/12.

    Excited to see some results. I did log in everyday this past week. Goal 1 met! I did not exercise. My goals for the upcoming week are:

    1. Start the 30DS tonight.
    2. Continue the 30DS everyday this week.
    3. Up my water intake.
    4. Decrease my alcohol intake.

    Thanks for all of the motivation and support. When I originally signed up for MFP, I didn't take the time to request friends. I'm glad I did this time. You guys help to keep my in line and give me tons of motivation.

    Thank you!!!

    Monday 10/29/12 check in:

    10/22 weight 192.6

    10/29 weight 193.0

    Gain of .4 lbs but I think this is mainly water due to monthly mary's visit !! I always pick up when she comes to town and then it drops when she leaves.

    Weekly goals:

    do extra exercises at home before bed for my abs and obliques
    continue with meatless mondays
    get more sleep

    Last week: 196
    Today: 193.5

    I tried very hard to stick to healthy sized portions this week, normally when I eat I have this habit of telling myself, "*kitten* it, I can indulge" but that never pays off in the end and the usual feeling is guilt/disgust. I don't know if any of you fellow ladies have a similar problem, but it really help just acknowledging that what I really want is not the larger portions. You go girls!!

    Weigh in yesterday: down 1.2lbs. I have been on MFP everyday logging...no exceptions. I have also started Turbo Fire and have been doing a video daily...it has been great, especially with the weather turning cold.

    Good work, Mamas! Keep it up!

    I think I lost so much because I just started. The first 5 or 10 pounds always fall off me when I put my mind to it. But mostly I do mini-work outs everyday and cut my alcohol intake by at least half if not more. I love beer! Also I'm reading "Naturally Thin" by Bethany Frankel. I think it's helping, but I'm sure my progress will slow down in a week or two. Good luck ladies!

    Count me in as well, I have decided to finally get into community, for months I only used MFP to sometimes track my eating.
    I like the idea of using this for journaling, as well as, acountablliity. My goal is to keep track of what I am eating and be honest.
    Also we are to be consistent in my exercise, at leat 5 times a week 30 min. Lets start there. Great......

    Goal - 160

    30DS is referring to Jillian Michael's DVD "30 Day Shred". Excellent exercise DVD! :)
