    That is one of my problems....I don't like water at all.....Any suggestions... Yes I am on Synthroid also... 175mcg....It was like an automatic 30 pds gained.... Very hard to get off... And with the tiredness of the hypothyrodism, it makes it really hard to get up and excercise.....Anyway, this is great... love the website it does make one acountable...

    I use alot of crystal light (even the walmart and target versions) and I use alot of lemon in my waters. Its not the same ole same ole and it is refreshing =)

    Can I get in on this? I would love to lose around 15-20 pounds by Halloween. I am currently at about 190-192 fluctuate a lot. I have never been below 181, so don't know if 170 would be too small, but I think that is about my goal weight. We will see as I go, but I would love to join this group and have support with eating healthy and supporting others. Thanks for starting this group.

    I'm game! I'm finishing up P90X this week and am starting ChaLEAN Extreme come Sunday. I'd love to see 211 on the scale come Halloween!! I usually weigh in Friday mornings, so that works well for "the plan."

    My husband brought home P90X it is brilliant. Its a box of CDS which incorporate all kinds of gym martials arts weight training etc. I have been following the discs every day. For me it is brilliant because I can sling on a CD when ever I like. Anyway its working as my weight has started to fall again.

    Went in to Dr's for my follow up and was in total shock! I mean total shock!! I asked his assistant to look again to make sure she was looking at the numbers correctly but there it was...I lost 7 pounds of fat! 3.5 pounds in weight and have brought my BMI from 47.1 down to 43.2. I still wouldnt have believed it if my hubby wasnt in there with me! I just stood there in awe of these numbers...I am like there is no way!! I am only 12.2 pounds away from my Halloween goal! :flowerforyou:
