I too had a rough day...got up late and had a brunch. Was not hungry til around 6pm-ish but was out shopping and did not want to stop for fast food or anything. Got home around 8 and I had a ton of homework to do. So to sum it up I was way under my calorie intake. Really glad I did not exercise today or it would have been twice as bad, yet I shopped for three hours!! So I guess I did walk a lot. EEEKKKK!!! Hope it doesnt bite me on the scale in the morning.!!! I did drink 96oz of water today and only 3 cups of coffee...
Good luck in the morning everyone!!!!! :bigsmile:0 -
Cookie.....I wish I could say great, but unfortunately no time to exercise tonight...
However...day 2 no soda! Yah. :happy: Just like you...I need to increase my water intake!
Not really looking forward to weigh in tomorrow! I guess time will tell.
Hope everyone is ready to Just Do It and Get 'er Done!
Yay on the no soda progress!!!!! I am going on 4 months without it (have a little every blue moon) But I have gotten to the point where I dont even like the taste anymore...TOO SWEET!!!0 -

Wooo hooo....hanging out with you all must have done the trick! I finally lost a little! :happy:
First time in 4 weeks that I've seen the scale budge!
I am going to continue to do my work outs Turbo Fire & P90X and try like heck to stay away from diet soda!
Drinking more water will only help make this possible.....Does anyone have any suggestions on a way to spruce up water to make it more tasteful without the calories?
Ashmom....hang in there....there is always tomorrow!

If only I saw these results every week!!!
Welcome Maxylicous!!!!
Shadke-- When I get tired up water all I do is squeeze some lemon in my bottle. But sometimes that not enough "spruce". I've heard people doing the Crystal Light. I havent had it in a year or so...only cause it is some unecessary calories. But now that I am close to my goal, I may start up again. Water does get boring!! Especially since you are used to drinking soda! LOL0 -

Oh, I forgot to add this little note...I went to a clothing store with my mother last night to look for her clothes...but I decided to try on a pair of jeans a size smaller than what I have been wearing..and they FIT!! I was extatic!!! My mom insisted on buying them for me as a congrats gift even though I told her Im not done yet!!! Haahaa...Was trying to work with the belt til I get down to where I want and "reward" my self with a new wardrobe. Anyway, long story short, I am now a size 5 (inches are coming off) thank goodness cuz the scale wasnt being very good to me lately!!!0

Hey all! Don't worry I will be weighing in today (sometime) I just dont want everyone to think I have left everyone hanging. Good job to everyone you are all doing great, keep up the awesome work!!!!
Well......I just remembered that I had a scale at work and it says I gained 5lbs :sad:
I will not let this discourage me, I think it is my eating. The past two days have been tough. I am still exercising though. The 5 pounds could be water weight with foods that have too much sodium ? Any guidance would be great. I also do not exercise long enough, but after next week I will have a lot more time to work out which I am so psyched about!!!! Talk to you all soon:)0 -
Hi all- started today with a lovely 40 min run, so hoping for a good day (one day at a time- that's my mantra):)

don't feel "out of place" at all! this is EXACTLY the place that you should be right now (on mfp).
we all have our different SWs but our goals are all the same...to lead a healthy and active lifestyle and enjoy our time with the ones that we love...which for most of us entails losing some of the "extra" LBs that we've managed to accumulate over the years
good luck to all of us and happy friday!!!!!!!0 -

Dream it and DO IT!! You will get there!! I promise!! We and MFP are here to help and push you...Dont give up, please...Have a great day hun.0 -
Hi everyone, can I join the group as well? My starting weight for today is 163.8, and I would like to be at 150 by the end of May. (Less would be fine with me as well!)0
-
Whatever weight you are today is the perfect place to start. Everyone started from somewhere, and you're among friends who want to support and encourage you You can do it! I started at 225, and now am at 160, with 20 more to lose. Some people start out where I want to end up :P It's fantastic that we all have different goals and body types0

so its says that I l lost 7 pounds but that weight was put in September but still consider it as a accomplishment soo today's weight in is:

Well my day started good...but must say it did not end as well. Entertaining is not easy on a diet!
It also rained so not so much walking or running a planned.
Just hope I can get back on track and not derail totally!
Ps....I fell of the no soda wagon:sad:
I must admit that my stomach didn't react as well to it...so I guess it's trying to tel me something!
I envy you dedicated ones and am definitely going to work hard like ' you that rock'! :smooched:0 -

Mine too started well, but ended...ok. Not too bad, since I had saved the calories for dinner. The dinner I had wasn't the healthiest, but we have it about twice a year, so I am forgiving myself.0 -
Hey all! Everyone seems to be doing great!! I'm working on the water I have been taking only water to work for lunch and no diet soda(except for my coffee in the morning!) And last night we went out for dinner and I ordered water with lemon!! I was very proud! I feel like Im doing pretty good, but also am getting frustrated, my daughter plays softball for 2 different teams so she has a practice almost every night and sometimes 2 in a row! This makes eating a good supper difficult and makes for some fastfood suppers, which I don't like for any of us, especially later in the evening. And this yucky weather doesnt help my excercise. My zumba is no more cause of softball, but my main workout is walking/running which also depends on time and weather. I did do it while she practiced one night, but this weather I really wish I could find something I would do at home, but I don't do well working out at home, I did get a pilate dvd and have yet to open it! Anyway, sorry for the rant, but had to get it out!! Keep up the good work!!
oh, and I think Shandke ask about stuff to make water better with no calories?! I do not like to drink plain water, I have put lemons in it, I have used the crystal lite packets but right now I am hooked on the propel zero. They have bottles and packets you can put in your water. I have used the lemon and right now the berry. There is also those new things that you can put the flavor drops in your water, I havent tried them but a friend of mine likes them.0 -
Hey guys, I've been looking for a challenge to join! Is it ok if I join yours a few days late?? It seems like I never manage to get in on time!!!0
-
Ok....sure but we might want to close out the group so we can kind of keep track! Or do you want to "let it roll"?
I made it back home from a weekend out & about! Time to get back at it! Hope everyone is working hard and making it happen!
I know I am not looking forward to getting on that scale!0 -
Thanks!!
I've been working for the last month on getting my way through the 170's... and I weight myself this morning at 170.4! I can't wait until the day I get to see 169 on the scale, it would mark the smallest I've been since high school! Any day now!
Been trying to be really good with drinking enough water, and of course getting the exercise in every day... I feel like the food I'm eating right now is a sin deliciousness... I'm kinda out of money, and just eating what cumulation of leftovers I can, plus trying to get in 5 little meals a day... I'm ending up with things like scrambled egg topped with left over carrot bisque soup. Yuck!
Anyhoo, nice to "meet" you all!0 -
LEMON!!! I always forget that I like lemon in my water. If I remember that, I might to better the second half of the week!!0
