    Bump...

    I love the exercise challenge. I am going to work really hard at completing this as I have not completed an exercise challenge yet. Uggg... why is it so hard to find motivation. I actually do like to exercise. I blame school right now.... but deep down I know I'm just making excuses. Enough! No more excuses for me!!!

    Here are my 25th stats - Not sure if I measured in the same spots, so if they seem totally off let me know and I will recheck.
    Unfortunatley, weight has gone back up some. On the 5th I was 180.6, but today I am up to 183.2.

    SW: 185
    CW: 183.2
    Hips: 44"
    Waist: 33.25
    Bust: 38.5
    Arm: 12.25
    Thigh: 23.25

    I have to be totally accountable for whatever I did or didn't do. I know I have been intermittent with my tracking and my exercising. I need to be more serious about reaching my goal.

    Hope everyone is doing well!

    QUOTE:

    Hi CCC friends ~ I had a great day yesterday, went to bed alittle hungry. It didn't cool off last night, so I didn't sleep good..even though the air was on I like the window open and fresh air. Well remember when Jenn had a fight with a bag of candy corn???? I had a train of Mother's pink and white annimal cookies hop skip and jump into my mouth I washed it down with some chocolate soy milk!!! WTH!!!

    I'm OK, just alittle disappointed. I get up and eat at night in waves....sometimes half asleep and not in too much control. Last night I pretty much did it on purpose.

    Here we go again...MFP is distracting me....gotta get to work. I have lot's of driving in my future today, better go pack my snack bag.

    Have a Great Day

    Oh, and I forgot to share my compliment story from last night. My husband & I went out to dinner and our waitress had an interesting necklace, made of rings (the kind you wear on your fingers). I told her I thought it was lovely and asked her if there was an interesting story behind it, which (of course) there was.

    The rings were gifts or mementos that she wanted to wear, but either didn't fit anymore or that she didn't want to get dirty from waitressing, so she decided to make them into a necklace. I complimented her on finding a clever, pretty and intriguing way to still wear them and it seemed to really make her happy.

    i dunno if this qualifies as a compliment...but it was raining really hard, on and off, while at work (school crossing guard) and a lady i see everyday walked by w/o a umbrella and i gave her mine to borrow for the day...stupid hurricane is messing me up on walking to work...oh well, i'll just really REALLY focus on the challenge ^_^

    Wow you all are doing so Great!!!! Very motivating!!!!!! I am really so happy to be a part of this group! I need a new battery for my scale...since it is giving me alot of different numbers..some good, but I want the truth!:ohluwell: I have been on track and am looking forward to the weigh in and measuring :noway: I hope I am happy once I'm done!

    I know things are going the right way since I had a NSA???? What ever the no scale weigh intitials were...... I put on a part of pants yesterday that were in my, "You Better Lose Weight" Pile. They fit!!!!! Don't get me wrong there is still lot's of work to do...They look great from the front....the back is better, good enough to go out in public... :glasses:

    Well my work computer is calling... I would rather be getting motivated here, or working on the challege. I might take a friend for lunch if I can get some work done.....I choose Sushi!!!!

    Have a Great Day :heart:

    So.. I complimented a co-worker... not quite a stranger, but we don't know each other very well. I told him he looks like Ed Westwick (I swear he does) and then the other teachers had to google it to see who that was... of course a very sexy (if not scantily clad) photo of said actor came up first. He's been very nice to me since then :laugh:

    Measurements:
    Bust: 41.5
    Waist: 37.5
    Hips: 42.3
    Arm: (l) 11.5, (r) 11.5 .... no change, but I swear I've built up some muscle there... really
    Thigh: (l) 21, (r) 20

    Thank you for the acknowledgements on my success but I really dont deserve it. Although I have not lied about my numbers, it was not just my work that dropped so much.
    My thyroids are VERY VERY BAD! They cant seem to control them, Im either too high or too low and simply cant be regulated.
    Im also not eatting like I should (only about 500 calories a day) mostly celery soup and yogurt and then I exercise about that much every day. I have been under an emense amount of stress with a nasty divorce from a man who is mean, spiteful and vendictive and recently threatened to press criminal charges against me for signing a check when we were married. And to add to the mess I was just informed that my bone density is shot (thanks to my thyroid and a complete hysterectomy in 05) what that means is my 36 old body has bones of a 65-70 year old woman :( I have already broken a bone. I have only told my 3 closest friends this news and im not sure why im letting it all go here but this is me....
    SO PLEASE give the credit to someone who truly deserves it for their hard work and not someone who isnt doing what they should do to lose the weight.....

    Bust: 41.5
    Waist: 36
    Hips: 43.5
    Arm: 13.5
    Thigh: 25.5

    Not too bad - I knew my clothes were fitting better but I didn't think 6 lbs would make that much of a difference in the measurements!

    I've complimented two co-workers so far today. That is a huge deal for me - I'm not your average Snoopy that can't take a compliment. I actually take compliments like a pro but rarely dish them out!! Seeing their smile and knowing that I gave someone a bit of a boost is actually very motivating - who knew!
