    Hi everyone :smile: Time to start fresh with a whole new month ahead of us! I haven't posted in a few days cause I was in bed with the flu. BRUTAL. Didn't work out for a whole 3 days! (but didn't eat anything either, so I hope it won't kill me :tongue:) I did make my goal for July though! And then some with the last 2 days, but I'm not counting that...
    Keep up the good work everyone

    Hey Kids! It's great to be back. I was away from my computer for 4 days so I didn't get a chance to post my total loss for July. I lost 9 pounds! I did have a rocky weekend though consisting of a seafood buffet on Saturday and a pizza buffet last night. No more buffets for me for a while. This was kind of my mini-vacation for the year! I think I will shoot for a 6 pound loss this month. I look forward to reading about everyone's progress. Keep up the good work everybody!!

    Welcome to all of the new faces!!

    We are gonna get in those motivational clothes!!!

    Last night I had what I would like to think of as a progressional setback. My refound motivation from yesterday was hiding last night as I decided to eat back all of the cals I burned at ZUMBA in ice cream and chocolate peanut butter bugles. I was still under my cals for the day, but I should have made a better choice! Oh well, day #3 of the month is going well so far! I went to the farmers market and got a bunch of lovely produce. It was so stinkin packed there, people must have backed into fatbaby in her stroller at least 1000 times. She probably has whiplash.

    I am debating if I want to do class at the gym tonight, or just go and do a workout. I really want to do this kickboxing class, but I just have a feeling fatbaby is gonna pitch a fit (she hates the daycare there if her brothers and sisters are not with her) and I am going to be embarrassed when they come pull me out of class. I should be lifting anyway since I did cardio last night. Then it's only frustrating instead of embarrassing AND frustrating.

    tiarapants: down 2 pounds is great!!

    So, I've been cheating by getting on the scale early and often. Monday morning I had maintained from Thursday's weigh in. Tuesday and today I am down 2 pounds so I hope it sticks... at least one of them. Anyway, after my weigh in, I'm taking the kids to the free family movie day. Fun, fun!

    Hello Everyone,

    Eboni I have been cheating also. I don't know but being in this WL group has given me the push I needed to foucus on my goals. I reached my 20 pound milestone June 5th and then I gained back over 10 of those pounds in the next 10 days or so. I had to spend all of July getting the 10+ pounds off again:sad:

    Last Thursday I hit 20 pounds down a 2nd time this year!:smile: and I was hoping it would hold until Monday and it did and I had lost an extra pound to boot for 21 pounds. Now that I have learned my lesson from the last six weeks, I think I am ready to keep going and be consistent until I reach a the dreaded stall or plauteau. I am feeling good. I have the right mindset from all of my different support groups and I am ready to lose my next 100 and get under 300 pounds by March 2011.

    I love MFP and it does work if you work it.:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Finally after 4 months I have learned more each day about navagaiting and using the site to the fullest. So glad I found this group and I know I am going to lose my 10 and if I do more that is even better. If I do less which I doubt, I will not trip either like I did in June. I am going to lose something this month.

    With this being hump day, I have worked out 3 days so far with 2 or 3 workouts left. My minimum each week is 5 days and anything extra is gravy.

    Everyone have a good week!!:flowerforyou: :drinker: :flowerforyou: I will check back in on Monday for my official weigh in!!

    Great job so far eboni, tiara, and mollie! You guys are getting it done!

    Mollie, as much as that backsliding stinks, I think it teaches us a valuable lesson. I am glad you were able to take something from it and refocus!

    I had a great time in Zumba last night. I really like the Wednesday night instructor versus the Monday. I am anxious for weigh in tomorrow!
