Excellent! I had lost 4 pounds, but after the bbq probably gained one back. I will be putting my weight in wed. Before my trip. Hopefully I will have lost it! Fingers crossed!0 -

Chug, chug, chug-a-lug that water, it'll help flush the extra sodium through.

Sound off!
It's 1:30-ish in sunny California and lunch today will be chicken and a loaded green salad. Water intake so far... Could be better @ 32 oz. Today's exercise will be Body Beast: back and biceps, 45 minute walk and Buns of Steel step aerobics. Yea. I'm bringing back the 90's and having fun doing it!
How is everyone's day so far??0 -

You are working it! I took the dog for a two mile walk this morning. Most of my day has been spent cleaning house and doing laundry. However, I am marching in place anytime I find myself standing still- doing dishes, folding laundry, cleaning the bathrooms, etc. I've got almost 8500 steps so far today! I plan to do some time on my mini elliptical machine before the day is thru. I also did some food prep – scrambled eggs for breakfast, and vegetable beef soup for lunches this week. I'll have to figure out dinner tomorrow evening – no more time today in the kitchen.0 -
Since I just started and weighed in a couple of days ago, my Sunday weigh in is 205#. For the challenge, I am down one pound. I began logging on MFP three weeks ago and have lost 12#!! Oops- now 13:) So glad I found the discussion boards!0

Good morning everyone
This morning was a bit rough, OH got a call out in the middle of the night. The dog, OH and I were restless for the entire night, ended up sleeping through my workout alarms
A lil monday morning reminder; as well as keeping an eye on your food and making sure you're active, please get a good nights rest as it does help you resisting sugary things for energy whilst it also gives you the willpower to get moving!
I will not use this as an excuse and will be trialling Jillian Micheal's 30 day shred which is on youtube after the dogs walk this evening
Has anyone had a crack at it, heard some good things about it.
@MimiOfTheLusciousLawn seriously huge congratulations on the loss, love how determined you are!
@Kayak97 couldn't locate your username so feel free to add me via //www.fitbit.com/user/4FFQGV and the same to all the other fitbit users, love the idea of doing some weekly challenges with you all.
@fancnanc1 Congrats on the loss, patience, perseverance and persistence are key!

Good morning!! A bite of inspiration to go with your morning coffee:
"Accomplishments don't come from your physical self but your mental self. True success comes from within your heart and mind - not from your quads and biceps." - Blaine Cotter, Season 7, The Biggest Loser
Enjoy an awesome day and a great start to the week!0 -
@gethntysear 30 Day shred is pretty good. Just know that by day 7 I had to do it with the volume off because the sound of her voice would make me irrationally angry! LOL
I'm so tired, but I'm going to get my workout in right now.
Happy Monday Everyone!0 -
Hello everyone,
I wrote a post last night and deleted it by accident, was too tired to rewrite.
Thank you so much for the support and encouragement team.
Mimi@ great advice of focusing on one thing; as to not get overwhelmed. I decided to focus on exercise and water this week. I am going to log my food, because last week I told my sister I would log my food with her this week. But I will not stress about the food this week.
Misalillstead@ I will work on releasing the guilt for screwing up and move on, good advice.
Kayak97@ thanks, I will think positive thoughts. negative thought are not useful anyway.
I started feeling better after reading the encouraging post yesterday and today I feel even better. I will be going to the gym tonight after work.
Have a wonderful day everyone!!!

You can call me Mimi - I've been "the fat girl" my entire life. Christmas of 2014 I experienced chest pains that were my wake up call. I started LCHF January 12, 2015 and haven't looked back. My all time highest known weight was 409#. Today I am 236. My ultimate goal is to range between 170-180, I think. I won't know until I get there! My family has a Florida trip planned for January, 2017 and I'd like to get as close to goal as possible for that! I'm also shooting for onederland by mid-August... lofty goals, but doable!
I am 53, married, empty nester and have one daughter, one grandson and one very spoiled senior golden retriever mix. I work part time in an office where the most exercise I get is walking to get a cup of coffee.
I've completed c25k, am working on b210k and want to run a half marathon in October (though it may be Oct., 2017). Running and walking are my only forms of exercise now as I don't belong to a gym.
Looking forward to meeting you all and rocking this month! Let's Die Lard With a Vengeance!!!
Nice to meet you, Mimi - congrats on all the weight you've lost so far!!!0
