You are right! Hope we get to see before and after pics swimmom! Thanks for the inspiration. What plan did you follow? How is your belly fat?0 -
I went from 32 to a 27! That's a size 5! I don't want to lose weight any place else besides my tummy. I hate the way my belly hangs over my pants. I find myself sucking in the gut all the time.
Nice job on losing the inches. I honestly haven't taken a single measurement since I started MFP. Maybe I'll be brave and take measurements tomorrow. My body is apple shaped so I never have a tiny waist. I wish I had an hourglass, or I'd even be happy with a pear shape. Sigh.
I logged my food today. It was hard to stay within my calorie limit, but I barely made it. I didn't work out today and I feel my TOM coming up.

Well, I took a test this morning. I was curious to see if the reason I haven't lost any of my belly is because I was pregnant...:indifferent: but I am not:happy: ! So I guess I have to put more work in. I'm thinking about giving up carbs for my goal next week. In order to do this I will need major support. I'm declaring this week won! I haven't thought about takeout! Wow!
dc_amaryllis- my chocolate cravings are out of this world during my TOM so good luck with that :flowerforyou:
Leigh_b- how is it going?
Swimmom-what does your daily food diary look like. How are you with carbs and sugars?0 -
Hey moms! How is everyone? I'm doing great! So I figured since I accomplished my goal last week, I would set a new goal this week.
My goal: Eat less carbs. I will not eat bread, pasta, or potatoes this week! Plus, no fast food. My exercise goal: I want to rev up the cardio. At least 500 calories every day. Anyone want to join me? I will probably be on this thread a lot this week. Have a wonderful week ladies!0 -
Congratulations on your loss!! Your hard work is really paying off.
500 calories burned each day? Wow, that's incredible. I've only burned 500 or more a couple of times. I think a more realistic goal for me is to burn 300 a day. I will join you in this challenge.

Hi! So, I did it! I didn't touch bread, taters, or pasta and I burned 500 calories! But it was hard! OMG it was hard! My husband was eating chips right in front of me and I almost tackled him for some. Whew! How did you do dc? Hopefully, it was easier for you. How is everyone? Good luck!0

Joi ... great job on staying away from the carbs. I know it takes massive willpower. I gave up bread for Lent one year and it was the hardest thing ever.
I managed to burn 504 calories yesterday. :happy: My plan today is to burn 100 calories while my son is napping. I think i'll run in place while I catch up on one of my shows. Then I hope to burn at least another 200 calories when I take our afternoon walk/run.0 -
New weekly chart posted! Come see which Hot Mom has already reached her goal weight!!

Hey everyone! How did the week go? How did the goals go? I was able to stay away from bread, potatoes, and pasta for one week. Geesh was it hard. I believe I burned 500 calories everyday except for Sunday. Needless to say, I am exhausted. I don't know about my goals for this week. Any ideas? How is mommiehood going? Have a great day!Hi!

Hang in there Swimmom. Your progress is incredible. You'll reach your goal in no time. I hope your baby sleeps well this week.
Joi .. good job staying away from carbs. That shows real dedication. Obviously, it's working for you.
My goals for the week:
1. Burn 300 cals/day
2. Stay within calorie limit
3. Watch sodium intake
4. Drink more water
Happy Monday all!0 -
So... I had trouble deciding on my goals for this week but I finally set a couple.
I am going to go with dc_amaryllis and burn 300 cals a day.
I am going to rest one day and not be obsessed with weight.
I will not go overboard on my birthday.
Control sugar intake.
How is the week going? Leigh_b how is the windy city? Did you get shoes?
Swimmom do you have any plans or goals for this week?
dc_amaryllis what do you plan to do when it gets cold outside?0 -
Joimichele ... when is your birthday?
When it gets cold outside, I plan on doing workouts with my Wii and videos and whatever good I can find on demand. Also, I love running in place, jumping jacks, calisthenics while I watch tv. During the commercial breaks, I run up and down the stairs. Nothing replaces a good walk or jog outside, but you gotta do what you gotta do, right?
I hope everyone is having a great week!!0 -

How old is your baby? I agree, if I am not occupied all I think about is food.0 -

Oct. 28! WHHHHOOOOO! My son has a Wii. What do you have that burns a lot of calories and is fun?0 -
Woo hoo!! Any big plans for your birthday? You deserve a celebration meal and definitely some cake. :flowerforyou:
I have Just Dance 2 for the Wii. It's tons of fun and a good calorie burner. Just Dance 3 just came out. I also have Wii Zumba. I havent really gotten into it, but I hear people love it and have lost a lot of weight with it. I think I just need to give it another chance. I've heard good things about EA Active Sports. That may be my next game purchase.
What about everyone else? What winter workouts will you do?0 -

I recently joined the YMCA for the winter. Plus, I plan to invest in some Wii fitness games. Hopefully, it's fun. Dc, what does your daily food diary consist of? Like what's a typical day of meals for you? Swimmom and Leigh feel free to share also.Woo hoo!! Any big plans for your birthday?

Hi everyone! How is it going? Well, I only have one goal for this week. I plan to stay the heck away from the scale. Yes, I admit, I am addicted to my scale. My plan is to stay away from it for the next two weigh ins. So, my weight will stay the same two weeks straight. I am also wishes all this Halloween candy would run away from home :devil: I munch too much!0

I want to keep running through the winter. I have a treadmill at my house so I can keep going well into the snowy days of January and February. My goal is to maintain 20-25 miles a week which I should be able to do if I can run 4 -5 times per week. I won't be doing any long runs (over 6 miles) because I cannot do more than that on a treadmill (it is WAY TOO BORING) but will start running outside again in March. I hope to do another 1/2 marathon in April. I also want to finally tackle and finish the 30 Day Shred. I won't do it in 30 days because of the running, but will try to work it in 3 or 4 times a week so will finish in about 10 weeks. After that, I will move on to a different video, maybe another Jillian... don't have that worked out yet... hoping Santa brings me something good. I would also like to try to work yoga more consistently into my routine. I am extremely inflexible and think it would help me recover from some of my long runs if my muscles were a bit more elastic than they currently are. I also have a gym membership and try to go at least twice a week. I usually negotiate one week night that my husband will have kid duty and I can hit the gym before coming home from work and then I try to go one day on the weekends. They have a great "daycare" option at the gym so I can take the kids with me.0

Hi group 9. I have an NSV I have to share ... just too excited to keep it to myself. :laugh:
Today I ran 3.41 miles without stopping! I would have kept going if I didn't have to pick my son up from preschool.
Leigh, I'm so ready for the Turkey Trot. Yippee!!
Joimichele, my typical weekday is around 1200 calories and I strive to burn at least 300 calories. I haven't been eating my exercise calories. However, I almost always go over my calories on the weekends. I'm not sure if my body thinks I'm zig zagging, but I find it's just too hard to stay within my calories with the different things going on during the weekend. I struggle to control my sugar and sodium intake. I go over my limits every single day. I seem to lose pounds when I watch my sodium and drink lots of water.
Have a great weekend everyone!0 -
Susie.... so exciting that your running is going well!!! I saw your stats when your workout posted and figured you had done at least 3 miles... nice job!0
