Mommy Challenge Part 3: Hot Mummies for Halloween!!!

Mimi- hahaha what you said is exactly what i do! The lowest i have seen recently is 145.9 but the last 3 or 4 days it has been 146.5 on the nose! it is NEVER exactly the same each day so the last couple days are making me nuts! lol

ok...i think i am going to skip the next 2 weigh ins if you guys dont mind...my birthday is october 5th (a wednesday) and i want to weigh in then. I am hoping to reach 149 by then.

No probs Toya!! I hope you hit your birthday goal... actually my wish for you is that your surpass it!

thanks!! but of course im addicted to the scale so i have already been back on it :indifferent:

LOL I made a comment about that before I read this... the scale is in fact an addiction... CONFESSION: I weight in every morning (unless Im rrunning late) and today it said 148.9lbs but I dont get tooo excited, only Monday's weight in counts and I beat myself over it, if I lose nothing by then.... masochist to the fullest

Mimi!!!! I am so giddy that you have broke the 150's curse!!! i dont care if its not monday, im doing my happy dance for u!!!:drinker: :drinker: you, lovecola, and kristyn are my heros!! u have all crossed over leaving little ole me behind lol, time to get my but in gear so i can join you!!! heading to a treadmill nearby go mimi, go mimi, go mimi!!

LOL LOL LOL I am soooo excited about it but I won't get too excited, must keep it off until Monday ( and I have a feeling that I will this time)!!!!!!!!!!! and BTW ms. Latoya, you're right behind me, that treadmill will ensure that you break not only the 150's but soon enough the 140's..... have no doubt that we will reach our goals before the end of this year... we will welcome 2012 as skinny mini hot mama's!!!!! WACTH OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good morning ladies!!! How was your week? Doesnt matter, its a new one!! Im at 150.2, basically right where i started. So in 3 weeks no loss....not good :indifferent: Time to step it up!! I really feel that its all about the eating...Exercise is a great benefit and helps so much, but if u eat crap all day it doesnt matter. Lets do this mummies!!! Due to my slow start, I am aiming for 2 pounds this week. I know this will be hard, but it will be so rewarding! Weekly challenge: Eat breakfast.....everyday!!! struggle for me, is it for any of you?

sw- 150
cw- 150

no change :frown: :frown:

Good morning!! I wanna totally agree with you here! Eating seems to be the major factor in weight loss.... and I've realised it with me. Over the last month, I've been having a hard time with my exercise and diet.. I've eaten a lot crap on a consistent basis. It was almost as if I'd gone back to being someone who didnt care about her health and body. Over the last week I actually tried to pay attention to what I ate and even though I didnt do as well as I should have or could have, I still lost weight! Why? I think its cause I didnt give in to the ALL my temptations. But who knows, we'll see this week... cause I really may not be able to exercise again, due to the fact that I'm hoping to move into my apartment this weekend, and I still have tons of cleaning up to do... so its all gonna be based on what I eat and dont eat!

Toya, breakfast is an integral meal... it can set the tone for the day... If I miss breakfast, I feel as if I will not be able to function... thankfully, I've been that way since I was a child. I know all of us struggle with something or the other, some of us struggle with more than one and we think we are failing.... but we aren't. We're all learning. Learning about what's good for us and being able to support one another in our respective struggles. I cant begin to say how much I appreciate the support from each of my friends here on this site! It has made me into a better person in the last 4 months and I dont think I could do this without you ladies and some guys that I know here. Its awesome!

Anyways, I should get to doing some work now.. lol... so here are my stats for this week:

Week 9/5/11-- 135.5 lbs
Week 9/12 --- 133.5 lbs
Week 9/19 --- 133.5 lbs

I am sooo very happy for those of you who have broken into the next lower 10's. I hope I'll be breaking into the 130's next week. It was so close for me. But I'm happy with 0.9 - still moving down and on-target.

LaToya -Maybe you can wrap your scale up in a box with pretty paper and a big bow and put a tag on it that says "Don't open until Oct 5!'.

Breakfast- I'm normally very good about eating breakfast but I would have skipped today (running behind) if not for the challenge. No time for my normal omelet but I'll at least grab some cereal.

Good morning Mummies....I didn't weigh in this morning for it being TOM....so maybe I will weigh in later this week, or just wait till Monday....what ya'll think?

HAPPY MONDAY!!! I hope everyone has a great start to their week!!!

I had a nsv this week too. I tried some of my size smaller jeans and a few of the pairs fit. Some of them would be only to wear with a big sweatshirt, to much of a muffin top to wear them. BUT one pair did fit comfortably!!! yah yah yah!!!

Oh Lisa, my heart breaks for you, I am so sorry for your loss. & his poor daughter to have to find him, just unthinkable. Praying for you!!!

Please pray for me this week Mommies. I have a very very good guy friend (been friends 20 years) that passed away suddenly yesterday. We were out Saturday night dancing our butts off and having the time of our life. He seemed fine. He dropped me off at home at 2:10 a.m. Sunday morning, he texted me at 2:30 and said he made it home. At 9:00 yesterday morning his daughter woke up and found him dead in his bedroom floor. Coroner estimates time of death at 3:00 a.m., just 30 minutes after he texted me for the last time. Please pray for his poor daughter that found him, she is only 13 and was the light of his life. This is going to be sooo hard on her.

I am so sorry for your loss. Will be praying for you..

I have lost 10 lbs!!! I still went over my calories both Fri and Sat, but went on track yesterday, and most of last week. I think consitiency with eating is teh key for me. I am still avoiding any refined sugar, and sticking with limited whole grains, and fruits and lean meats.

That is so wonderful!! i am happy for you
