    Everyone is welcome!

    I love that we have a bunch of new people here! Very cool!

    Yesterday I walked 2.5 miles in lew of going to the gym. It was the first nice weather day we had had in about 2 weeks, so I totally took advantage of it! Today was the only day it was supposed to rain, but I got up and rushed out the door since it was still nice out. I got 1 hour of good paced walking in and shortly after I got back, it started raining, so I was reallllly happy that I got it done!

    Wearing hubby's bodybug today to get a true idea just how many calories I burn in a day and plan to wear it for the rest of the week. Im trying to see what my baseline really is. So far it 8pm and it says Ive burned 2163 calories for the day, so Its interesting to see exactly whats going on. I thought it would be annoying to wear it on my arm all day, but I dont even notice it, so its doable.

    Tomorrow is gym in the AM and some walking after, then hitting the grocery so I can have salad for lunch tomorrow. It just sounds good! ;0)

    Curious... are any of our newbies or oldies from Texas? :wink:

    Hey ladies,

    I lost 4lbs two weeks ago then gained it back and have lost 3 of it again. With the 3 though I lost inches in the hips and waist so that is good. Its been nonstop here for a while. I'm on spring break this week. Decided not to go anywhere and just enjoy the time at home catching up on a few things. I'm really looking forward to being out of school in two months. I totally reorganized the study yesterday. It felt good to be so productive.

    Well here we go:
    SW 198, GW 130, CW 162 = +1lbs

    Have a great week

    So Monday I walked 4 miles. Was gonna hit the gym later but didnt get to it. Hubby needed me to run some errands and by the time I got home and made dinner I was spent. Didnt get a workout in today. Its late so Im gonna make this real short. The weather is really nice here right now so Im taking advantage of it and getting outside. Tomorrow is 4 more miles of walking, then going to the gym. :0)

    Hope everyone is doing good!

    I am kinda late at starting this, but I would like to join in. I will put my starting weight in this Friday. This is an ongoing challenge, right? I have been on and off on myfitnesspal. I don't have a lot of weight to lose, but I have slowly added some over the past couple of years.
    My goal is to weigh 120 pounds. I am 5'4" tall. I am 33 years old, and I have been married to my wonderful husband for a year. We are trying to conceive and I have been struggling to dedicate myself to weightloss, because I don't want to counteract the chances of conceiving. I am thinking maybe if I would just devote my time to concentrating on this maybe the other will just happen.
    We have been doing P90X for about 3 weeks now. I hate the Yoga, so we have skipped that. It is too long.

    I'm here for you, Deb, and I'm sure the others will soon follow.
    I think it's winter that makes us slack off...and gain weight. With this nice weather, we'll all be motivated to lose that winter fat. At least I am...

    I actually logged my food for the day and stayed under calories. Tomorrow will suck since it is a holiday so I won't tomorrow. Hope everyone has a wonderful Easter. Remember the day is about Jesus and not about food! He died for us so that we may live!! Blessings to all, love you all very much. See you soon. Have a great day with family.

    If you can figure out how to start a new post, Debbie, maybe you could begin a new thread...call it T.H.E. (Trying Hard Everyday) Team - Fresh Start - Week 1. I can't even see a link where I can introduce a new topic, or I'd do it myself...

    I didn't log my food yesterday. I was at three different houses, had way too much food, so I consider today an opportunity to get back on track. Darned Easter eggs...

    I have no idea how to start a thread sorry. Maybe Cindy can start one for us when she gets home from Texas.

    I ate way too much yesterday also. My Tony went to California today on a mission trip with his church and I miss him already and ate too much today too. I need a kick in the pants.

    Okay...Here's your kick in the pants...

    :frown:

    I'm back on track today, but the day is only half over. Didn't do too bad yesterday, but snuck a small chocolate at bedtime. Oopsie...

    I'd planned on walking every day this week, but then we got rain, so that's a no-go. I'll just keep cleaning my house instead.

    Hope Tony has a good trip. He'll be home soon...

    Hi - I just joined MFP yesterday and would really like to join your team. I'm usually an upbeat person, but lately I am so down about my weight (which just keeps going up and up and up). Thanks to this site, I take comfort in knowing that there are others out there struggling the way that I am. My husband and family and friends are all normal weight, and my husband in particular is just in great shape. He is training for an Appalachian hike with his siblings who are also in amazing shape. I feel very left behind. The fat chick who can barely walk up the stairs, you know?

    I wish you all a triumphant day!

    SW - 262
    GW - anything less than 262 at this point!
    EGW - 145
