    GREAT job everyone!! Keep up the good work!!

    chrissy - how'd you get your husband to join?? I'd love to get mine on the road to health but he's not cooperating yet. I guess he's just not ready.

    he was seeing my success and his doctor kept telling him to do it and I quit buying junk - last time he went his doctor told him next time he thinks he'll be off of his blood pressure meds.
    I am so glad that we are doing it together - keeps us both accountable. I am very proud of him.

    Tonight for supper we had Schwann's Turkey Filets wrapped in Bacon - 220 cal 8 g fat with veggies - they were so easy on the george foreman and SO tasty. Each one had it's own little thermometer in it so I knew when they were done. It was a nice different treat.

    :flowerforyou: everyone is plugging away! wtg!!
    chrissyh, you are lucky to have hubby on board. It is a lot easier when all the tempting food is not in the house. He is supportive though. At least he made dinner all week so I could go straight to the gym after work.
    Here's to week 9 - keep up the good work blue!!

    So my husband wanted nothing to do with this website however I did end up finding something that he was interested in so check these sites out and see if your men would like them.

    JG what a difference - see now I wish I had pictures like that that show the same pose and your actual body. Great job!

    After looking at my new ones - it made me re-motivated me to see where I was to where I am now and how much I need to go. I realized yesterday that I only have 39 more pounds to hit my goal...no more 40s or 50s or 60s - you get the picture. It was a nice feeling.

    So last year I spent $1500 of my tax refund on tattoos, so this year I am focusing all of it on debt with the exception of one thing for myself. I have decided to get a Foof!!! 84" x 50" x 40" (the XXL) bean bag chair, filled with super comfy microfiber foam or something. They are the most comfortable things I've ever put my butt on! :laugh: And I'm getting the biggest one they have so there's plenty of room for me and my 6'2" bf to snuggly up and watch movies! :smooched:

    I'm so excited you have no idea!!!
  • That looks awesome!!!

    BTW - I'll take some of your tax money to PAY my taxes if you have any just waiting to be donated to the Chrissy Cause! - it's cause I don't want to pay the taxes!

    I keep calling it my homework chair and my bf keeps telling me if my grades drop he'll take it away. :noway: :laugh:

    I'd like to see him try to hide it! :laugh:
  • Hey Team!!!...I'm sorry to tell you all this but I'm leaving the team, I've gained in these past weeks, things have been quite difficult for me and I don't want to bring the team down so I think it would be best if I withdraw...I thank all of you for your support and I hope to see you around the community:heart:

    So I made some friendship bread lastnight and I did a wonderful job at making sure I exercised so that could be my treat but ahhhhh it just keeps calling me. I found how many calories I was like :noway: But its still calling me. I have already exercised 5x this week and would really like to take the next couple of days off however if I want to eat that bread I don't think I can. Whatever am I going to do. :frown:
