Yea i lost one time ago on weight watchers but the difference was i was living at home ... i was 16... i was in high school .... i didnt have to cook, clean much, OR have a hubby or a child to take care of .... so i had nothing better to do with my time then focus on the points .... I LOVE MFP journalling .... its awesome ... and i do think it fits me better as well ! GOOD LUCK ! i love your little mantra...

I WILL DRINK MY WATER..... I WILL EAT HEALTHY.... I WIlL LOSE THIS WEIGHT ! :flowerforyou:

Hi Ladies.
Weigh in for me tomorrow. Still in a lot of pain and not looking forward to the scale tomorrow. But on the up side, for whatever gain I have this week from womanly crap, then that means an even bigger loss next week I hope. Staying away from salt and getting TONS of water in (I know I hit the 64 oz already, but lost count after that). Zumba for me tonight I hope.

bahama and B - Keep rockin' those positive attitudes. They are contagious.

Congrats on all the weight losses so far. See you guys tomorrow

Hey sixers! only stopping in for a quicky (hAHAHAHAHHA) update.
just got back from the gym, did c25k week 4 day 1 (again) which took about 30 mins, and then did 30 minutes on the elliptical with a resistance o 10 and i can tremember wut the incline was, prolly 10 also...

But total was for 1 hour and 7 minutes, and I burned 902 calories!

SO
Exorcise - CHECK
Water- 48 oz down so far
Eating: Good breakfast!

Now I need to rush and try and make my bento box in under 10 minutes so i can get to school on time!!!
OH AND GRATZ TO ALL THE LOSERS SO FAR!!
B

Amy(pyr)- Way to go girl !!!! :drinker: YOU ROCK ! and yea WW is awesome... but you definately need TIME to pursue that option !

B- WAY TO GO ! i need one of those heart-rate moniters tooO ! What brand do you use ?!?!? I CANT imagine burning that many cals.... ! i jus estimate it thru one of those online calculators HA ! ... or the WII tells me what i burn when i go on that ! .... good luck girl

Lorna-- so sorry your in pain girl ! that is no FUN ! .... i agree.... keep it up and you will show a loss next week ! XOXO

kristin- & alison-- LETS keep it up girls

WELL keeping the water going
and
had a great snack !

be back laterz

HEY SIXERS!!!!

So I am sitting at a table in between classes, eating my TASTY bento box, which i will tell you about later, first, PERSONALS!!!

Amy!- My motivation SISTER! haha! I debated around for forever on whether or not to get a HRM, and I am SOOOO glad I did. I went ahead and got a Polar F6, it really is worth the price tag, its easy to use, the strap gets a VERY accurate heat beat measurement, it keeps track of my exorcise for a week, it tells me how many calories I burn, and in all honesty I got the pink one, and it looks SUPER cute, I wear it 24/7 as a watch now! haha! YAY special K! I have the fruit and Yogurt cluster kind, I love it! plus I am like a 5 yr old, I love seeing the milk turn Pink! :laugh: and WE CAN DO THIS!!! WE CAN BOTH MEET if not BEAT our goals!!! I know it! we need to remain focus, not give into temptation, and push our selves to be the women we want to be!!! :drinker:

cathy - OMG! CONGRADULATIONS ON THE 4 POUND LOSS!!! THAT IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!


Sandy - oh nooooo! Thats such bad news about your leg!!! But super adorable about the baby! (i LOVE BABIES!!!!) And I really dont have a very good attitude when i first wake up, all of my ex's say I am a (pardon the language) a "*****zilla" the first 5 minutes I am awake, I am also a nightmare to wake up.. I should have a thought bubble permanently plastered above my head when I am sleeping that says "Wake with caution" or "Wake me and Die" hahahaha! :laugh: And to answer your question my birthday is next wednesday, March 31st! I will be turning 20! yay me.... sorta... And yay for you losing the .2 pounds! any loss is a victory!!! Oh and one more side note I LOVE ZOO's! (told you people, I am a 5 yr old stuck in a 19 yr old body!)

Alison - OMG! GRATZ ON THE HOUSE!!!! Very cool!

Lula- < - for zumba and the compliment. :sad: < - for your pain! *hugs* and :bigsmile: for sticking with the water and hopfully a huge loss next week!!!!!

Kristin- YAY FOR YOUR LOSS!!!!!!!!! VERY cool!!!

Amypyr - haha I am a night person too, but this whole work out thing, has me passing out before 11!!!! and getting up at the absolute latest around 8... haha. Next time you get snacky come talk to me! haha! we can get over ur cravings/snaky together!!!

Rhiannon - YAY for the possible job, the yoga, and the muscle pump! those are all Awesome things! I agree though, lets rock this out!! GOOOOOOOOOO SIXERS!!! *insert cheerleader pompoms!*


Okay, I think I got everyone, so to everyone who hasnt checked in, and if you are reading this and not planning to check in PLEASE do, we would really like to do a name confirmation, the list of names seems a LOT bigger than the amount of people posting, so Tiff, Tamm, other Amy, Em, and others, We know your busy but just bump so we can make sure your still on the list!!!

So my bento box, I truly believe I am starting to become a good cook! Today I baked 1/2 of my tofu block, (which I had cut up in 5 long strips, then sliced each of those strips in 3rds) with Nothing on them, I steamed my brown rice in my rice cooker, so that completed 1/2... 4 pieces of baked tofu (small pieces not strips) on top of 1 cup of cooked rice with 1 tablespoon of low sodium soy sauce. The other half was 1/2 of a cucumber sliced, and then diced, with 1 cup up roma tomatoes, which i put 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil (it was low something i just can remember what) and a little bit of Salad spice. Believe it or not, i am learning that the food that goes in my mouth doesnt have to be COVERED in *kitten* for it to taste amazing! It was REALLY good, And I am super full. plus eating with chop sticks allows for one to eat a lot slower!! And all of that only came to 392 calories! :bigsmile:

On a side note, I just remembered, last night on the phone my boyfriend and i talked about my weight loss journey, what i did in the past, and what I am doing now. He has really been motivating me lately. And last night he challenged me. He challenged me to be a Size 10 by the end of the summer. (oh to explain how this came about I have to tell everyone, Yesterday, for the first time since last spring (when i lost 10 pounds of MFP) I fit into my size 14 pants!!! YAY ME!). He promised me/ bet me, that if I could fit into a size 10, that he would take me on a weekend getaway ALL expenses paid... :bigsmile: So hopefully, I am REALLY praying/going to work, to being a size 10 by mid summer so that I can go all the way to a size 8 be the end of summer! We will see though, need to keep this motivation going for that to happen!!

Well I hope ALLL of you have a great day,
Keep the posts coming, and lets keep the motivation FLOWING!!

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SIXERS!!!!

B- :flowerforyou: :bigsmile: My motivation Sista from anotha motha .... ! hehe..... I AM SO GLAD WE CAN BE THERE FOR EACH OTHER ! i am so looking into buying one of the heart-rate moniters ! i would love to know how much i ACTUALLY burn in a day running after this kid of mines hahah ! you are super cute about the milk turning pink ! I STILL LOVE mines turning chocolate from cocoa pebbles sometimes .... hahah..... AND the snap ... crackle... and pop .... of the rice krispies HAHAHA ! we are total nerds ... and i love it ! hahah ! yay for making awesome low-cal bento box lunchies ! and what an awesome motivation ! AHHHHHH to be a 10 again ! lol ... what a dream size ! hahahah ! we can do this !

CAthy -- a loss is a loss ! xoxoxo

Verda--- our WORKOUT motivator ! ..... Everytime i feel like making an excuse i say VERDA SAYS I CAN DO IT ! haha ! ..... way to go on the working out.... and losing last week ! good for you !

Tiff-- so great to hear from you girl .... YAY For finally having internet .... I CAnt imagine not having internet for long .... i would be :frown: :indifferent: :noway: :explode: HAHAHA in that order HAHA ! .... GOOD LUCK on fridays test ! i dont miss those things hahah !

AFM:

Well i ate super healthy today ..... under my cals for the first day in weeks.... it feels like.... got in all my water..... drinking more as i type ..... and got in my 2 miles of walking, 15 mins on the WII FIT, and lots of everyday fitness like cleaning, running errands, etc....

XOXOX

Okay just signing on before going to bed to finish logging my food and water! And then i thought, Wow I wonder what my Sixers have been up too, so jumped over and saw that the forums havent moved much Sad, but it is okay! CUZ WE ARE GOING TO KEEP THE MOTIVATION MOVING!!!! (haha Amy, Verda, and I have enough for everyone! lol!)

Really tired, so not going to do personals yet, (do them tomorrow morning!) but Amy its sooo true, size 10 = dream size!, yay for us being nerds, and Verda YAY FOR YOUR LOSS! that is great!!!!!!!!! Your sooo motivational!!! Do you have b-day plans?

Okay so quick, when i left off I was eating my tasty bento box, well I did great the REST of the afternoon, and then my family and I went out to dinner at my FAVORITE restaurant (its a sports bar and grill called Bullfrogs) Anyways for 3 hours before we went I was trying to think of what I could order that would be low cal and healthy, AND NONE OF MY FAVORITES FIT THAT DESCRIPTION!!!! :sad: So I when we got there I was nervous that I would break my streak of goodness and not find anything or that i would try and excuse it and order one of my favorites instead. And I surprised everyone INCLUDING myself when I ordered a Steak salad, with NO dressing, No Extra *kitten*, asked them to give me a small serving of olive oil, and asked them to leave any bead products off the dish. OMG! Plus the dish had potatoes on it, really delish looking potatoes, and here is another thing that shocked even me, Potatoes are one of my BIGGEST weaknesses whether its fries, hash browns, baked, or even raw! (yes i eat raw potatoes lol). I had like 3 of these little pieces of potatoes and then PICKED THE REST OF THEM OUT! I ate my ice berg lettuce and my steak with my little amount of olive oil! haha! I did great!! I AM SOOO immensely proud of myself!

In my mind, I really committed to my new healthy life style tonight... I feel like I have FINALLY turned the page on my old ways... i mean every day is going to be a struggle, but tonight was a BIG win for me! :drinker:

So sixers, I hope everyone had a great tuesday and I hope everyone has a great wednesday!!!
