    My internet is back! My apologies for missing the past couple of weeks. We had some terrible issues with our internet (our neighbors' internet was somehow interfering with ours and we couldn't both be online at the same time! crazy!) It's all better now and I'm here to report that my current weight is 184.4lbs! Finally got the scale to go in the direction that I want it to!

    I forgot all about weighing in yesterday but today I'm 255. yikies!
    last week was brutal. my grandfather passed away last Monday and I earned myself a big headache crying & such so I end up blowing of workouts Mon & skipping running club & just going for a bike ride Tues, then my kids were brought home, them along w their dad I had to feed & entertain & Thurs & Friday were filled w food & family while we had the wake & funeral services... sat was my best friends bday... I ate less but not well... and sun was father's day, I prepareda feast if vegetables w a pasta dish & Italian sausage ... yesterday was back to normal & I already feel better ....so.... we'll see where I can get by the 4th with this huge set back...

    Hang in there kayte. That's something that puts major stress on your mind and body. And it looks like you are already starting to bounce back.

    Hey Ladies,

    I'm feeling so tired today, but I got in my workout anyways. Go me. ;)

    My kids have both been super cranky today--not what I want to deal with at all. Now I'm headed off to a 2 hour meeting with them in tow. Should be interesting. At least I can say that i got the workout done, even though I'm sure the rest of the day will just need to be written off. I've barely eaten anything today too--which is good and bad. I have such a hard time eating the right amount of calories. I'm either way over, or way under--and then starving after dinner Gotta get this all figured out. You'd think I'd have it down by now, but life just takes over as I'm sure you all know. ;) Anyways, no excuses. Must. Lose. Weight. Now.

    @Nadyasmom! Good job for keeping your head up and maintaining focus on the prize, working out is essential specially during those hard days.. I have found that a workout helps me to deal with whatever the day or night may bring... Hope everything went well :)

    Hey ladies, sorry I've been missing for a while, we were away on summer holidays but I'm back!
    I did no food logging while away and travelling (bad bad) and gained 4 pounds back! ugh
    But I did peak at my weight today and Im back down again thankfully ... I'll weigh in with everyone again Monday morning
    Hope you're all well!! :)

    Hey everyone!!!!

    I am so sorry that I did not weigh-in on Monday. I am a SLACKER at getting on here and weighing in, but the good part is that I am not slacking on what I'm supposed to be doing. YAY!! My Monday weight was 175. So, 5 pounds to go to reach our goal! YAY!!!! I am still hopeful that I can do it. I've got to get moving!!

    It seems a lot of you are doing well....such an inspiration!!!

    And those of you who are struggling, KEEP AT IT!!! This is the best thing that I have learned this time around is that just because I cheat for one meal, doesn't mean I can't get right back on it!! And that is REALLY helping me this go-round.

    I made some low-cal cupcakes this week with Diet Cherry Dr. Pepper. They were AMAZING!! And only 112 calories a cupcake.....YUM! Let me know if any of you want recipe..... It helped my sweet tooth this week!

    Ok, that's all of my rambling! Happy Thursday to all!

    good morning all!! Reyna good morning burn..and yes glad to have you back Mamabear!! @Nadyasmom..good way to get it in...try to eat fruit throughout the day to keep you going. I am looking back at how fast June has flown by. I regret not giving my all to this challenge..i have only lost 2 pounds!! i have 26 more pounds to lose so i need to get going... now that we are left with only 11 days of this challenge..i am going to focus on losing 3 more pounds by july 4th. This will be a total of a 5 pound loss during the july 4th 10 pd challenge aka mommy challenge. I will be satisfied with that. i dont want to leave this challenge with regret so i plan to go hard until the 4th!! 155 here i come!! 155 is also my prebaby weight!! Lets do this ladies!! I need my monday weigh in to say 157 and then the last week i will go for the big 155!

    At latoyabooker, thanks for all your support for everyone here. Also it is so important that we make our goals realistic and attainable. It's awesome that you looked at the situation and adjusted accordingly. You have a plan for success! I know you can do it by the 4th!

    Hi Mommies.. how's it going? I hope we are all doing fine today and that we will have a great weekend... a weekend where we will stay focused on our goals whilst not taking away from our daily lives.

    I have a couple new pics up... they were taken during my son's Graduation Dinner and Dance on Wednesday night. We had a blast and I felt really good cause I stressed all along wondering on how I would look 'compared' to his step-mom, who invited herself along.. and guess what.... I looked GREAT!! I was so happy and way more confident than usual.. MFP is helping me to re-invent me!! And you mommies are a great part of that! Thanks ladies and lets ALL keep pushing for what we want for ourselves.. its the only way, we will achieve it!

    Have a great weekend!

    Thanks LaToya! I have been so down in the dumps emotionally since my daughter was born, until now! I think I'm seeing a real difference in me (emotionally) and I'm liking it!

    184.6 this morning. Not exactly the 2lb I wanted but I was on my period and sodium was not exactly good this weekend. So back on track and two pounds this week for sure! Oh yeah, my water was not even close to where I needed to be either!
    SO.... (same ol' just harder this week)...

    More water in!
    Less calories in!
    Less sodium in!!
    Hitting the gym like crazy!!!

    Good luck mommies!!! :)

    6/6 - Out of town, no weigh in
    6/13 - 224
    6/20 - 221.5
    6/27 - 218.5 - 5 weeks pregnant! Please don't mention on my main page as my mom uses MFP and she doesn't know yet! :wink:

    Total weight loss for this challenge is 3.5 lbs! I am happy that I lost weight but now that I am pregnant I can't focus on losing anymore!
    We took a 5.2 mile walk yesterday and I think that is the last time I am going to do that for awhile - it was too exhausting!
    Best of luck today with weigh-ins! You ladies have been such a wonderful support and I am SO glad I found this group! :flowerforyou:

    Weighing in....

    Week 05/30/11 - 148
    Week 6/6/11 - 147
    Week 6/13/11 - 145.5
    Week 6/20/11 - 144
    Week 6/27/11 - 144 :((


    This week's loss - 0
    Loss since beginning Mommy Challenge - 4 llbs (6llb since joining MFP)

    I'm not very happy about this at all but I'm guessing the couple days I missed exercise and ate like crazy last week, coupled with PMS, I didn't expect any loss.... I'm just glad its not a gain!!

    Congrats to all who's seen progress thus far!! We've got one more week..... LET'S ROCK THIS SH**!

    Love you all! Have a blessed week!
