I am very proud of myself so far. I have been doing this for 3 or 4 days now. I have managed to do some kind of exercise every day. Today, I actually got out my Wii and did the Wii Fit for 30 minutes. I do not know if I have lost any weight yet. I am trying not to look at the scale. I want to wait until it has been about a week. I need to work on my water consumption. My calories are good and the rest of my counts are pretty on track. With 3 kids you would think it would be easy to lose weight, but I find that it is difficult to find time to exercise. Finding free time for anything is difficult. Not to mention in a couple of weeks my oldest go back to school (1st grade) and the week after I go back to school. Life is busy but I am determined to lose weight. My hubby comes home in 7 weeks and I want to lose 10 pounds by then. It would be nice to look sexy for him. :love:

    I know how hard it is to lose weight - when I started I had 4, 2 in school, 2 at home, worked, and went to school but it is so doable!! After dinner, take the kids to the park and play baseball, or soccer. Let them help you make healthy meals, I found that when my kids had a say in the food, they liked the healthy food. You can do it, and it will help with the stress level also!!!

    Hooray for you -- I'm starting this week as well -- sounds like we have a lot of encouragement on the message board.
