Just realized last weeks post isn't here (odd, could've sworn I posted! My toddler probably stopped me) I'll do an up to date post tomorrow, to keep myself on track I'm posting last weeks results today.

Hello Everyone
I see that you have been losing and reaching your personal goals or close to it. I am proud of each of you and the Next 12 weeks should inspire us to do better and see even more weight gone. I have plateaued and I am not happy about it. It just means that I must work harder and plan, plan, plan. I sometimes get so busy, that I forget about me. I put myself last and by the time I get to me, I am burned out. I am doing some SPRING CLEANING on me! Time to clean out cabinets, Refrig., all the little hiding places. Time to recommit to my self challenge and find a buddy who will HOLD ME accountable. Any takers? WE all know that this is an on going challenge and the start dates are different for each of us. But if there is anyone who feels they would like to recommit to their health and to the challenge. Join me Sunday April 3rd and lets get back on track. Notice I did not say Monday, I am trying something different. I have a birthday celebration Saturday and I think I will enjoy, get it out of my system. Sunday I will start fresh and new with a heartfelt commitment to do well. I hope to have a few of you joining in and recommitting to your goals. Please don't be confused, this original challenge is not changing. I am, but staying within the challenge. Have a great weekend.

Eat water-rich foods
Eat water-rich foods and you’ll eat fewer calories overall.
A body of research out of Pennsylvania State University finds that eating water-rich foods such as zucchini, tomatoes, and cucumbers during meals reduces your overall calorie consumption. Other water-rich foods include soups and salads. You won’t get the same benefits by just drinking your water, though. Because the body processes hunger and thirst through different mechanisms, it simply doesn’t register a sense of fullness with water (or soda, tea, coffee, or juice).
