    It certainly is hard when you work at this and don't see the scale change-but next week it will probably drop quite a bit-so hang in there. You are doing great! :flowerforyou:

    1755 cals in today...541 burned. Good day right on the mark:-)

    As far as sugar goes I wouldn't worry about them too much.:noway: The only thing that I would look at is the processed sugars like (High Fructose Corn Syrup):grumble: or anything that you might put plain old sugar in (like sweetening tea or cereal:sad: ) all stuff we should give up by the time we're 10:wink: . There is a good amount of natural sugars in fruit or juice, but as long as it is 100% juice not concentrate. It is fine. It is all that processed and refined sugar that can get hard to break down and end up being stored as fat. Some things you can do to reduce some of the sugars are by looking at stuff that you might change to organic or whole grain. Like I said I wouldn't worry about them too much, and you are right that just about anything that is processed or prepackaged :sick: has sugar added in some form.:tongue:

    Hope everyone had a good start to their week!:drinker:

  • Well happy early b-day Josh! My hubby turns 29 this month too and is all kinds of freaked out about it. Men in thier 30's are sexy too! lol Have a great time fishing you have earned it!

    Karen I hate it when the scale doesn't budge. Just remember as long as you stay on track it will come off. Beside you are already looking fantastic.

    Everyone is doing wonderful with their exercise! Great job.

    Managed to keep it under 1300 calories today! and today was my weigh in day and down to 164! So i have lost a pound a week for the last three weeks. It is fantastic I had been at a two month plateu.

    I have caught a cold from the kids and for ten days haven't made it in to the gym. Still trying to keep it under control I bought a Polar F6, but it must be way off. It clains that in 22 hours and 30 min. (was trying to make it 24 hours, but just couldn't stand to wear it anylonger) I burned 3243 calories all with out leaving the house. I know with 4 kids under 5 I run in circlres alot, but lordy there is no way that can be right.

    Okay so I would post for yesterday, but for some reason every time I go to enter my food or exercise the internet says it can't find the page. Oh I so wish we had cable, I'm not sure that that would fix it but it is so slow...:yawn: So just know that yesterday I probably went over on my cals a little and burned about 300 cals. Hopefully by tonight it will let me log and then I can post my #'s here.
    Hope you all have a great day!! :bigsmile:

  • Karen- the polar f6 is a heart rate monitor that also totals up your calories burned. I was hoping to wear it for 24 hours to get an idea of what I burn on a lazy day. I really don't think mine is working right. I am going to give one more shot before calling th ecompany. Usually people really like them.

    I love having cable for internet. It is very fast and always reliable.

    I have a sitter...very rare... so I am going for a run all by myself!! SO excited. I usually have to run on the treadmill but it suck compared to running outsides.

    Wishing everyone strong will power today!
