    awesome job everyone!!! looks like we're all on the right track! Last weekend I had my fiance's birthday, which i've still been indulging in ice cream cake from it. The last piece is in the freezer and I'm saving that for the birthday boy so no more for me lol. I need to work on staying under my cals for the rest of the week. And maybe fit in an additional exercise in the afternoons, nothing too major, just like a half hour of something :) Keep up the great work everyone!!

    It's been a challenging week for me, my knee has been a little sensitive, and TOM (time of the month) was here, so haven't been 100%. Thankfully I haven't eated too many of my exercise calories, and I should be feeling better.

    Anyone else having a hard time coming to terms with how long it takes, and how much work it is to lose weight? I don't know why but it's really getting to me this week.

    Hope everyone else is doing fabulous!!

    I do start to feel like that sometimes. Especially those months where I bearly lost a pound or even gained. The thing that really helped me was reading somewhere on here that we're lucky it doesn't take as long for us to lose the weight as it did to put it on. I know from 2005-2010 I put on 60lbs (12lbs a year). Thankfully it won't take me 5 years to lose all of that or I think I'd really go crazy! You are doing great and losing weight the healthy way, it will still take time, but at least you're on the right track by being on here :)

    Good morning!

    I went home Monday evening not feeling well...stayed home from work and in bed most of the day Tuesday. I had yesterday off already for some appointments so today I'm back in my routine but not entirely feeling well. It's mainly a stomach thing.... I am hoping that today it gets better and by the time my work day ends I can go work out again. I haven't been to Jazzercise class since Sunday.

    I don't know if I ate some bad yogurt on Monday afternoon or if I have had a bit of stomach flu or what...but everything makes me feel sick to my stomach. I just ate some oatmeal so I'll see how that sits....

    I noticed this morning that my pants were looser as I walked in to work from my car. Well, it's more like they weren't as tight, rather than that they were loose. But, regardless, that was nice to notice. And yesterday my daughter pointed out to someone how my jeans were loose. I didn't even realize it until she said something....

    It's been an odd week. I have been sooo good. Always under a 1300 net, getting some form of exercise every day, and the scale didnt move at all when i did my mid week check in-i think I have had pms for a week now and I feel like a bloated angry elephant :explode:

    And of course it is our Thanksgiving this weekend. I love stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy. Oh and Pie. Can't forget that. And festive beverages. There is NO way I will be able to stay under my calories, but I am going to log anyhow. I may as well try to get all the stuffing in on one day-leftover turkey would be great but leftover stuffing will just be one of those things i end up eating anytime i see it.
