the NEW black team

Seriously! I can't find a Wii Fit in 50 mile radius! Believe me...I've tried...:grumble:

Hubby got up at 4am on black friday went to wal-mart then and waited outside gamestop at 7 for it.

Awww...he's sweet! My husband does love me dearly (at least I think so... LOL) but he is the WORST gift giver ever. I could tell him exactly what I want & where to get it, and I'd end up with socks.

GUESS WHAT EVERYONE!!!!!!! OK....this is great news!!!! Ok, Ok, Ok......Today, I decided to get on the scale and since weigh in last Wednesday, I lost....................................................1/2 pound!!!!! Not sure if my ticker moved.....and I KNOW I'm not supposed to post it....but I just HAD to! I actually started on this challenge 1 week before the 30th....and I know ya'll are laughing because it's it's only 1/2 a pound....but....hey...it might be fluid, and if it IS...then that's accomplishment to me because I finally got off the diet coke!!!!!!

I'll quit rambling...I'll write it in my blog!!

Yeah Black Team......
Yeah All Teams!

Lisabeth-WHOOHOO on weightloss so far,thats awesome girl!

3babybeans-sending big hugs your way....don't let the p-word stand in your way,im sure you will win the war with it! maybe a day of eating will break the cycle? Or a new workout routine? So sorry your going through one....

Hey to everybody...I to just don't have enough time to reply to everybody(but i will do my best)

Are you guys having a cheat meal during the week or a little reward meal? I use to have a cheat day but i had to stop all that and go with a cheat meal,well i had my cheat meal last night and DUM ME decides to get on the scale this morning:noway: :sad: :sad: :sad: WHY DID I DO THAT? Im kinda sad right now:ohwell: :frown:

I try to give myself a "reward" meal once a week, it was actually yesterday. We went to Red Robin for dinner (yum)...so I worked out really hard in the morning so I had extra calories to play with. Got to dinner and drank three glasses of water so I was too full to eat more than half of my dinner! I was kind of sad because I had trouble getting all my calories in, but I feel good for getting that much water.

YAY Black Team!!!

I can't do reward meals or days b/c I simply get off track. I really believe in the whole "sugar is a drug" thing. Seriously. I don't deny myself food by any means, I don't think donuts are going to be extinct any time soon, but I really do have to watch everything that goes into my mouth. EVERYTHING. Its just how I work. I applaud those of you that can do it, though! Shows real willpower to be able to have a reward day & then get right back on track the next.

Amelia - thanks for the suggestions. I've been trying to beat it for about a month now. I'm a "p-word' bouncer. That's why I was shocked by my weight on our weigh-in day b/c it was the lowest I had seen in a couple weeks. I bounce up 2-3lbs depending on the day. I'm trying some new stuff & I've had an "off" day (or two :grumble: ) and it didn't seem to help. I increased my calories...that didn't help. I changed the time of day I work...that didn't help. I started adding strength training last week so I'm hoping to see it moving in the right direction but I liteally cried over the scale this morning. Silly, I know, but it was shocking. :noway:

Anyways, thanks for listening! :flowerforyou:

Food as a reward is what got me 50 pounds heavier. We had 3 kids and not a lot of money, so...good report card CAKE....birthday BIG DINNER.. and so on.

I do eat what I want, only in smaller quantities.

This must be a real lifestyle change, because I had to eat 2000+ cals to break my plateau and it was really really hard.

Just think Sara, the reason it is so hard is because you have lost SO MUCH!!:flowerforyou:

LOL Send your hubby my way! I need someone that is obsessed with cleaning. I told my friend the other day before she came over I was cleaning & she said, "Don't do that for me! You know better!" and I said, "Oh, no. It isn't for you. It's so the health department isn't called." It gets scary deep in toys in this place. I couldn't find Tabitha the other day b/c the boys buried her in stuffed animals!

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: My hubby can't even let you put down an empty glass on the table before he's standing on top of you waiting for you to hand it to him. The only thing he doesn't do is the dishes. He unloads the dishwasher but can't seem to figure out how to put the dishes in the same way he took them out. 5 years of taking the dishes out after I out them in and he can't seem to figure it out! Go figure! HAHAHAHa

Here a man secret that the man club would kill me for telling you... When men don't want to do something....We feign ignorance. Works every time :noway:

I was thinking of a hubby shirt that I can wear and I have one but it will have to wait until tomorrow because I'm already in bed and not feeling to hot. Shoulder hurts for some reason.

Do you have a photobucket account? Take the directlink code that it gives you & post it here & I can do the rest, if you'd like.

yes! Ok. I will try. Thanks


Oh and BTW....I KNOW I am not supposed to weigh before next wed but ............................

142!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!It has been 8 weeks since I have seen that freakin ticker move.....I HAD to change it!!
