    Good Morning Ladies. We had a beautiful 2 day rain here in Kansas where everything has been hot & dry most of the summer. I would like to report that I now weigh 163 lbs. I am so excited to have hit this milestone & am looking forward to the smaller numbers in th future. Enjoy your week & keep up the good work. Thanks for all your posts.

    I lost 2 pounds this week. I think it would've been more if I didn't screw up all weekend. :/ I've lost .25 inches all over too so that makes me feel good! :)

    Well, my camping trip didn't treat me too well! I had lots of fun and got in quite a bit of exercise but drank way to much and I think I may have ate half a bag of potato chips:ohwell: I played about 3 hours worth of paintball and went on a walk that was about 2.5 miles with my family. This campground does "treasure hunting" for the kids. They barry coins and jewelry all over the property and give the kids metal detectors to find the treasures... super fun! I also did 60 jumping jacks, 40 sit-ups (in place of pull-ups), and 40 push-ups. I didn't get Saturday or Sunday's exercises done though:cry:

    So, today I weigh 155.8... That is up 2.8lbs:sad: I'm pretty sure some of it is water weight though cause I'm super dehydrated this morning. When I go camping I tend to replace all my water drinking with liqour drinking:devil: But hey, this is almost a guarenty that I will lose next week right:wink:

    I'm not doing very good. :( I've been working out a ton but not losing weight so the last few days I've been extremely unmotivated to do anything. UGH.

    You know what worked for me?

    I took a BREAK.

    ONE WEEK OFF of working on.

    Just kept my calories in check and watched when I ate and possible triggers for emotional eating (my thing...Agh.)

    And I was eating over my calorie limit even if I was working out so damn hard (NOT SAYING that is what is going on on your end...I was just shocked that even though I was working out so damn much...The scale was stuck)

    DON'T GIVE UP...YOU ARE DOING AWESOME!

    WE CAN DO THIS :)

    Just weighed myself...down 4 pounds(221)....hopefully no more going back up in weight from here on out. In addition to cardio 4-5 days a week, I'm starting Insanity this week so we shall what happens with that. I have gotten my roommates to join me so that will be good to have household motivation and accountability.
    Something great happened this week! All of my size 16 and 14 jeans have been falling off of me and just look horrible. I went to Ross to try on some jeans and i fit in a size 12!!!!! I havent worn that size since I was 10 or 11. My roommate was with me and then suggested I just borrow her jeans but she mandated that I no longer wear my baggy jeans =]

    Best of luck this week everyone. Remember to just take one day, one meal, and one workout at a time. We can and will make it through this journey.
