    what day of the week do we weigh in?

    I'm curious about this too. I thought we were supposed to weigh in on Fridays, but Saturday was 1/1, so which day is it? I'd prefer Saturdays (it's my normal weigh in day) but I weighed in early on Friday this past weigh in.

    Anyone?

    I got a gym membership today, and I am SO excited to start going! They offer so many classes, and equipment! I'll never have enough take everything they offer! I need new shoes so I can start running again.

    Also, I've been really resistant to do anything healthy lately, but today I did SO GOOD with my eating, despite being a little over calorie. I'm so proud! Hope everyone is doing well!

    Amanda... I try to trick my body by eating more sometimes. It works, but only when I do it once every 2 or 3 weeks (usually on a weekend). Just keep at it!! Focus for the time on how awesome you are for having stuck with this, even without any downward movement. You're body is probably just being stubborn, and testing you to see how strong you are. :wink: Stay positive!!

    Start stat on January 1st was 192 lbs

    Treadmill daily to burn 200 calories (20 minutes) per day, 6 days out of each week.
    EA Active 2 30 minutes 3 times per week
    Dance Workout 30 minutes 2 times per week

    Oh, I guess I missed to team. It says it is closed. Oh well, I will just stick to the 5 lbs a month challenge. Good luck everyone.

    178.5 on Jan 1,2011. I am very close to my goal weight but not really sure what my ideal weight is. I have been using MFP for 4 months and lost 36 lbs. This program is awesome! I almost always have calories left over and get to snack at night. I eat pretty much anything I want as long as my calories are below my goal. If I have a huge business lunch, I just don't eat anymore the rest of the day. It works for me so far.

    Also working out 5-6 times per week. I run once, do martial arts 3-4 times, and p90x weights the other two. When I started, I could barely keep up the smallest physical activity. I feel great and I love this MFP!

    Good luck,

    Mike

    Congrats Mike! You're an inspiration.

    Finally took my picture today. My camera has gone MIA, so I broke down and used my phone.

    Not quite on track exercise-wise today. Just couldn't get into it this morning, so I only did 1 mile instead of 2 and no crunches. There's still time though!

    I have been doing well. I have been eating my calories, except today. My goal is 1500 and today I had 1652. That's not bad, I know, but I also haven't really been exercising this week. I am getting off this medicine and a couple of the side effects are extreme tiredness and migraines. Plus there is a cold going around work so I am trying to fight that with zinc. So yeah, I just don't have the energy. I am not really pushing myself too hard though. i am trying to listen to my body.
