Your actually the second person to ask me about this today because they will be gone the first part of July. Maybe I should post it earlier due to the Holiday and what not.

That sounds good. Thanks.

Hey Bmfrazie would you please add me to the spreadsheet for next week? Thanks!

Kamk16 - Hang in there! You can do it! When you have a day you are not eating enough calories, try to snack every two hours on something healthy, veggies, fruit raw nuts, a yogurt, or a piece of whole grain bread even.

Jolie123 – You can do this! Give yourself a little extra push this week! I have flat lined at the same weight for a couple weeks before even though I was doing everything right. Try doing something different, like if you are exercising, change what exercise you are doing, or if you’ve been eating a lot of the same things for a while, try eating something different, that might help get you off the plateau

Jackie218 – You can control yourself! When you think you can’t, tell yourself “Yes, I can!” Mind over body! If you are having a craving attack and feel like you are about to cave, have one bite of that naughty food then drink a large water and eat something filling like an apple!

Dyaane – Same advice I gave Jolie, I see you are working out 5 days a week. Try a different routine, or try adding an extra 5 minutes of interval training. You can do it!!!

Steph_135 - It’s okay to be bad occassionally! Don’t beat yourself up! It’s never too late to get back on the horse!

Uhoh_Billy – Hang in there!!! Stick to your Jullian Michaels thing! I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Frostiegurl – Wow you are doing amazing! You are really motivating! I hope I can lose 92 pounds like you have!! You look great!!! Do you have any tips? Keep it up!

Maher2006 – You’ll get to your goal! You’re making steady progress! Keep it up!!!!! :happy:

Kcthatsme – KEEP IT UP! You are going in the right direction! Don’t give up!

Everyone else I didn’t get to – Keep it up! Everyone is making progress! A little progress is better than none! I hope my tips help at least a little bit. I am just throwing things out there that have helped me. The weekend is just around the corner, I know for me it is easier to be good at work than on the weekend! Let’s just remember if we want a little treat on the weekend, that it is ok as long as it is in moderation! Good luck everyone and stay strong!

Yay!!! I started at 160, and as of today I'm down to 155.6! I am waiting a couple days to officially check in, but am so happy, I'm only .6 away from my goal!! WOOHOO!!

We lost another 26 pounds as a group this week for a total of 129.2 as a group in June!!!

Our top three shout out for the week are......drum roll please.......

1. Lemonbug with 3.3 pounds down this week! She has lost 4.84% of her body this month! I guess that ex-boyfriend diet is working for her!!

2. Noodlespoon is down 2.6 pounds this week with 4.38% shaved away!!

3. We had a tie for 3rd place with 2.5 pounds down by namoi7703 and fabmama

Excellent!! Congrats to us all and to Lemonbug, Noddlespoon, namoi, and fabmama!!! We are rocking it!! 2 more weigh ins to go!!!

Good morning everyone! I hope everyone has had a good week and is ready for the weekend! I know I am! I have only had one beer since I started my weight loss plan last week, and I am really wanting to drink more this weekend! But I know more than one drink will derail my progress! So, I am going to just drink my water this weekend with my Mio (Mmmmm I love Mio!) and have my fiancé rub my back and feet to relax me instead of the booze!
Jackie218 – Glad I can help! I know what a struggle losing weight can be and even the simplest encouragement can help me, so I am glad I can help someone else with the same goals
Harliesmom – You go girl! That is awesome! You are doing great! Stay on your weight loss path and you will surpass your goal!!! Yay! *high five*
Mollie1037 – That is exciting! That’s awesome! You will definitely surpass your goal too! I hear ya on the struggling with weekends! It’s the time when we wash work’s worry from our shoulders and indulge, perhaps a little more than we should! Tell you what, let’s make a pact, if we cheat this weekend, by having too much alchohol or bad bad food (cake is my weakness) then the same day or following day, let’s do extra exercise (extra meaning more than whatever we are doing now whether it is an extra session of exercise, or just adding an extra 5 or 10 mins). What say you?!
Bmfrazie – Congrats on losing that one pound and 1.5 inches!!! Awesome! Keep it up!!!! Oh, I would like to be included for the July Challenge!!! Thanks!!!

Oh my gosh Mollie! Duh, how did I miss that?! Thank you! I posted in the link BMfrazie put up for July! Yes, I am sort of new to the message boards. I am really loving it though. It is helping me stay on track, so a big thank you to everyone!!!! There is strength in numbers!!!!! I am so excited you accepted my challenge! Yay, we will keep each other in check this weekend! Keep it up everyone!!!

It would be wonderful if I could access the message boards through my phone...I might can and just don't know.

I have been so hungry this month!! It is also summer vacation and I DO NOT do well without the structure of work.

Well Darci,
After working out twice yesterday and once today I manage to have under 1500 calories net both days so far!! Hoping tomorrow will be the same. I will have to find time to work out though. Congrats on getting married in 7 weeks too!!

Hello Darci and group,
Well today was not good but definitely not an all out binge. No binge but over 2000 calories for sure. I decided to have my ribs today and no exercise. I still count this weekend as a good one eating wise.

It is suppose to be thunder storms in the morning and I do not like being out in storms. I will set my clock and see how bad the storm is.
