    Happy Friday all!

    crazybee sw 273.3 ; gw 175; cw 244.5= -1 lb yippee

    Great job juledes!! No binging for 9 days is wonderful. I am proud of you. Yes you may have gained from the salt but you could have gained from muscle too if you are excercising. The excercising my be losing inches but you gained a little in muscle and that is ok because it will even out in a week or two and you will suddenly drop a few pounds. Be encouraged!



    Cyndi (losingit4good), I am doing the count down to the wedding then I will change my ticker back to how many pounds lost for encouragement because that will be at 53lbs and that will be exciting! Any word on if we can spend Wedneday together? I sure hope so because if we can't my next plan is to drown my sorrow at the casino and when you are unhappy at the casino you blow too much money and you lose LOL. Help me to not go broke!

    Have a great Friday all and good luck on your weight loss. If you've gained don't be dicouraged there is always next week!! We all fall short from time to time, but it's not how far we fall, but how fast we get back up!

    Ive been with this particular group since it started in January 2009. I started at 252.4 and lost 40lbs in 6 months then hit a plateau at 212 and got really frustrated that I couldnt drop more. I decided to just work on maintaining, then sorta just fell off the wagon over the holidays with all the baked goodies and since I wasnt working out as much I gained 10 of it back. For anyone who is struggling wondering if they can do it... YOU CAN! It wont happen tomorrow and you will have good days and bad days, but as long as you KEEP GOING you can and will reach your goals. Do a YOU turn (and get back on track) when you think you have slipped up.

    So I am in 7th heaven. I decided to treat myself to a much needed day off today from the hectic schedule of life. Its an off day from my workout program so I went and hung out with a good friend today. We played monopoly on the wii and Another friend of ours came and gave massages and now I feel great!!! She worked on my hip flexor muscles, glutes and hamstrings and really got them to loosen up. Now my hips are swingin freeeeeeeeeee!! :love: !! I am sooooooo looking forward to tomorrows wogging at the gym just to see how different it is. She also gave me some good tips on how to stretch my hips out better before and after I wog.

    I drank allllll my water again today and was right on target for my calorie goal today. I am looking forward to tomorrows weigh in. Even if there is no change on the scale, I feel better than I did a week ago since I am eating better, working out again and getting in all my water in. :wink:

    PS... I still have the smallest bladder in the world.....:wink::laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    You are so right, we all have our days that we just want to quit, but who are we quitting on? Ourselves. That isn't good. When we start to think that way, we need to stop and think about why we feel that way. Also, we need to remember why we are here in the first place. To lose weight and feel better about ourselves. Don't give up on yourself. You are all you have.

    Glad to hear you had a good day yesterday. I hope all is well for you today. I completely understand the small bladder. LOL :bigsmile:

    Happy Friday Everyone!!! Well, I gained 1.5 pounds this week, but my clothes feel a tiny bit loose??? Weird, I suspect it has something to do with my late night snack of 100 micro popcorn, perhaps the salt? I knew eating that was not the best idea but MUCH better than a late night binge of cookies so honeslty I don't feel all that bad about it. I have exercised alot this week and was not too much over my calorie goal, which for me is very good. I know you all don't know me that well, but my goal first is to NOT binge which is a problem for me and it has been 9 days since I have. Have a great Friday everyone!!!!!

    Great job on your goal. I know how hard that is so, kudos to you. Keep up the awesome work. :bigsmile:

    I know it is my own fault and I am taking charge today. It is time for me to stop hiding behind my excuses. I decided to eat a few things this week that were not on the plan and I am very disappointed in myself for it. No more excuses. I now have 13.6 pounds to lose and I am tired of this dam yo-yo that I am on. NO MORE!!! I will keep myself busy this weekend in order to keep me from eating unhealthy foods. I can do this and will do this!!! Other than that I had a great week. LOL

    Have a beautiful weekend everyone. :bigsmile:

    P.S. Welcome to Kimmrodge and Chairbreaker

    Well I definitely can't complain about losing 4 lbs this week. I have yet to start an exersize routine, which is gonna happen this week. I did look at a couple gyms and it's finally getting warm here and has stopped raining so for today I think I will go for a walk. I will pick a gym by the end of the weekend...I think :P

    I was looking at the quote thing...do you think it might be an idea to have on there last weeks weight so we can see how people are progressing weekly? Just an idea.

    Also, thank you all for the warm welcomes. I look forward to getting to know you all and hearing your stories and how things are going for you.

    WOW!!! Look at these numbers!!! You ladies ROCK!!! Congratulations on your nice losses!!! Happy dances for you all!!!

    There is no way I gained 2.5lbs of fat this week. THAT I know of for sure! Its not possible with the way I worked out and the way I ate, so Im just chalking it up to water weight. The first day I was able to get all my water in was Wednesday and I didnt really go that much. Then yesterday after my 2nd full bottle and the massage, It hit and suddenly I had the worlds smallest bladder.:laugh: So, I'll see what it says again in a couple days after my body gets used to drinking this much water again. I am disappointed. I was really looking forward to seeing the drop, but Im not letting it kill my motivation. It is what it is and all I can do is keep working at it!

    On a brighter note... I get to use hubbys bodybug since he hasnt used it for a while! yay!! That should give me a good idea of just how many calories everyday Im burning doing various things. So that I am excited about.

    Im headed out the door to get my wogging in before the little ones get here!

    Happy Friday everyone!!

    Grrr, no lose this week. It's alittle frustrating, but I had a big family dinner last weekend and ate too much, as always. Plus school is really stressful right now with exams, so makes sense I guess. I'm going to try to get more exercise this week and start doing yoga again. GREAT JOB on your loses ladies, and the rest of us ... it's muscle, it's muscle!

    4 lbs is fantastic, keep up the great work.

    I want to invite you to take a look at my website and look at the programs that Beachbody.com has to offer. I just hate to see good people waste their money on a gym, when you can be working out in the privacy of your own home. If you have any questions, you can email or call me. www.beachbodycoach.com/jjtonic75

    Have a beautiful weekend. :bigsmile:

    Losingit4good-I have to say I love your verbage for Jog/walk. That is what I call it, but I hope you don't mind, I am going to start using wogging. It makes total sense. I hope you had a good wog today. Don't let the gain get to you. We all have those weeks. Next week will be better. Have a beautiful weekend. :bigsmile:

    I dont mind at all... :wink: .. I started calling it wogging last year and it kinda stuck. There are a few of us in the group that like to wog, so we all know what it means if you say you went "wogging" lol My wog today went GREAT! I feel so, so, so much better and my back is much better and not stiff at all.

    I would highly recommend to ANYONE that is starting out on an exercise regime to plan in a massage as a treat at the end of the first week! It realllly helps to relax and sooth over those muscles that are throwing tantrums about being worked over. Have your therapist focus on helping you stretch and relax the areas that are sore....Its a nice way to reward yourself without food!
