    Good morning to you too. I really wanted to wait until Wednesday to weigh in again, but I have been a bit of a scale-a-holic in the past, so I ended up checking again today....I lost another 2 pounds since weigh-in! I am definitely doing my exercises again today!

    Good luck at the gym!

    Woo-hoo! :bigsmile:

    Hello greenies! Hope you are having a great Friday.

    Way to go on the 5lbs. Christie!

    I'm usually a bit obsessive about the scale too, but am determined to stick to this week's challenge of not getting on it.

    Working out with the trainer tonight...still sore from the pain she inflicted on Wednesday night, though. She is merciless, but that is why we love her. :smile:

    hi all!!! thanks for the pep talk lynettep :wink:
    Christie- good job on the 5 pounds!! it feels sooo good doesn't it?!? keep up the good work!

    I did the elliptical and swam early this morning and am hoping to do some yoga tonight after a long day studying. It has been tough for me to stay away from the scales till wed also, but i am determined to see a great number when i get on it next week!!! stay strong everyone and do what you know is best for yourself!

    Good job Porka 29!!

    I'm about to go to the park and walk/jog 6 miles (hopefully). I bought a 20lb weighted vest to help out. Tonight, I'm celebrating my friend getting a new job. I have to be careful not to drink up all my calories. Wish me luck.

    Go Green!!

    Thank you all, Ihope to keep that and maybe a lb more when we weigh in on Wed.

    Man, I guess I need to work on my endurance w/cardio. I see folks posting about an hour on the eppilitical (sp?) trainer:noway: , I'm working up to 10 minutes! I can go 30 minutes on the stationary bike................that makes my face look like a beet :laugh: :devil: :mad: :laugh: :laugh: those faces look like mine! BF (porko4) says I appear like I'm being chased by a mad man and I'm peddaling to nowhere:bigsmile:

    Okay, I think I'm done, feelin chatty today!:blushing:

    Good luck this weekend everyone-

    I have am having troubles and i don't know if it is just mental but i will explain and maybe i can get some help.

    i exercise about 6 days a week no matter what so that isn't my issue....but i do really well for like 2 days, then I start out fine on the 3rd or 4th day, but by afternoon, i get this feeling where i just want to eat and eat and eat. today, i was able to stop the urge and just left. however, tonight, after dinner, i wanted a snack and ended up eating WAYYYYY TOO MUCH and i feel like i can't control it!!!! :sad: it wasn't horrible since i had worked out a lot and i just did an online video so i made up for part of it, but it is so frustrating. after one of these 'binges', ij ust feel awful about myself and i feel like it sets me back sooo much. i know i shouldn't, but the next day, i don't eat all of my exercise calories in order to "make up for this"= i think this is the mental part. i am just flustered and thought maybe my green team members might have some advice on what might be going on. anything would be appreciated, thanks!

    Kels0724 don't be so hard on yourself....we all have those days. I went out last night and had two beers with dinner. 1/2 a chicken sandwich with some FRIED mushrooms. YIKES!! But I still had over 700 calories left for my dinner. So I managed to stay within...yes it wasn't that healthy but that was my night to splurge! I am going to the gym this morning for cardio and strength training for an hour.

    I need at least 1 day a week to eat a couple of bad things or I will really PIG OUT one of these days!
    Hang in there!! Sounds like you are exercising enough!! Lynette

    Everyone have a GREAT Saturday!!
