    thanks sjmay - I'm trying to look forward.

    I did clean out my closet - as per the last challenge and there was quite a bit of stuff that was too big.

    I went for a walk through town. It has been raining pretty hard, but it WAS good to get out of the house. I'm a housewife and on-line student, so I don't get out enough. I've also been drinking all of my water. I usually do okay with water, I just forget occasionally, so it is good to have a week where I focus on it.

    Last week I started a new weight routine. It is KICKING my butt. I can't remember when I've been so sore. I like it, though, I think I've finally started a program that will give me some real progress. Been doing the Firm, but I think I've peaked on those videos.

    Good luck all.

    SW - 190
    LW - 160.5
    CW - 162
    GW - 135

    Ok, starting to freak out a little. I kept my food diary, was at or under calories, and exercised for the last two weeks, but I keep going up on scale!! Still, my jeans fit better and I thought I looked smaller. I started a heavy weight lifting regime, so I kinda didn't panic this am on the scales. I went and got my tape measure and, sure enough, my waist is 1.25 inches smaller!! (I had measured right before I started the weight training). Don't know what's going on, but I'm trying to keep perspective - I'm getting smaller, but the scale just isn't showing it yet.

    It's the same for me, jlbay! I started heavy lifting this week, and my weight is the same as last week... but my waist is smaller. Hey, I'll take it!

    Argh, I seem to be hitting a plateau. Can't get these 5 pounds off.

    LW: 152.4
    CW: 155

    jlbay, Amanda, I know what you guys mean! I've increased my workout intensity, been eating good (well, this easter long weekend is going to be a write off!) But seems these 5 pounds won't move :(

    Ugh.. I forgot to weigh in this weekend. It was a busy one, so I'll just let it slide this time. I hope everyone had a great Easter!! I know I did, but I think I enjoyed the candy a little much. At least the holidays that bring all the good seasonal candy out are over for a while now!! It'll definately make it easier to stick to my plan without that stuff!!

    Hey everyone! I hope the weigh in went well! I just got back from my vacation and it was great! I only put on 1 - 2 lbs, some of that is probably water weight too. I also wasn't on my scale, so it's about there. I will weigh myself once I have access to my scale on Wednesday to access the damage. Hopefully though - the change in my schedule for a week and now going back to calorie counting will throw my body back into a fat burning machine! :smile:

    I hope everyone had a good Easter weekend! No loss for me this week. I didn't do to great with exercising or eating right this weekend and TOM is coming. I am focused now and ready to stay on track. I have to go to wedding in 3 weeks so I would like to be in the 130's by then. Have a good week everyone!!!!

    Well, Easter was a bit of a disaster - but I expected that. I didn't have dinner because I ate so much for Easter brunch.

    However, I've been exercising and sticking to my diet every other day. I won't be home this Saturday to post. So, I'll either post my weight tomorrow or when I get back on Monday. Then the next weekend is my friend's wedding - don't know how much weight I'll lose over these next two weeks of travel, but going to try to at least keep up my exercise and not go overboard on food.

    That leaves me a little over 7 weeks until my Greek vacation. I figure I have to lose 2 lbs per week before I'm wearing a bikini. Yikes! That will be hard as I am in my last 25 lbs. Still, I'm going to continue to hit the weights HARD. I've decided I can live with a little extra flesh if my muscles are toned. That's my plan for the last two months!

    Going home for Easter weekend was a terrible, terrible idea! I wasn't able to weigh myself, but I know I overdid it with the calories and under did it with the exercise. I hurt my back lifting a table on Friday, which has slowed down my movement, but it's slowly getting better. Today I'm back on track though! Gotta work hard to be able to face the scale THIS weekend!
