    Oh Monday morning you come too quickly! :noway:

    Some how over the weekend my scale decided to give me a lb back. Yuck!

    11/7/11
    SW: 130.8
    CW: 130.8
    GW: 118
    WL: 0

    My goals for the week:

    * Watch my sodium intake! This one gets me everytime
    * Eat at least 1500 calories a day. Maybe a little more depending on my workouts
    * C25K on TU/TH/SA
    * Be on time for bootcamp on M/W/F
    * Plan my meals in advance so I'm not going out for lunch everyday
    * Check into MFP daily (but don't start reading all the posts that I get further behind at work) :embarassed:

    I hope you all have a GREAT Monday!

    Hi all! Wow, looks like we're going to have a great group!

    SW: 149.7 (down 2.2 from last week, yay!)
    CW: 149.7
    WL: 0

    Things move fast on this thread, I missed intros AND motivations! :tongue: I'm a 32 year old with a 4 month old daughter. I'm really looking forward to getting back to my pre-pregnancy weight and planning on finally getting to my goal weight of 125 that I've been trying to get to far too long! I have a love/hate relationship with running, I can stay motivated as long as I can run outside but now that snow has hit Saskatchewan I'm not looking forward to spending time on the treadmill.... Thinking about attempting a marathon in May but totally nervous about how much of a commitment it will be.

    Motivation for this week is 'no more excuses'. When there's a will there's a way, right?

    Goals for this week:
    - log in to MFP everyday
    - get some extra sleep, the wee one has not been making that easy the last couple of weeks!
    - check in with Sexy Mamas more often, obviously was a little behind!
    - get in 1/2 an hour of exercise every day

    Have a great day everyone!

    Monday Intro and Weigh In

    Hi Sexy Mamas!

    I've always been really interested in nutrition. As a young athlete, I worked out all the time and was always at some sporting event or another. I didn't play in college, and the stress of working, school, and life had me eating a lot less healthy and working out completely disappeared from my life.

    Before I knew it I'd gained almost 30 pounds. I gain weight really evenly, so when I say it crept up on me I really was clueless. It was hard, but I got a more physical job and started eating better again. Eventually I was about 10 pounds heavier than I was at the end of high school.

    I then had a baby. Gained the exact recommended weight for my BMI and quickly got back down to the 10 pounds heavier than HS weight. I am one of those people who needs to work out and be very consistent or I go right back up in terms of weight and down in terms of frequency of work outs.

    Thanks for listening! I am so happy to meet you guys, and can't wait to hear more of your stories.

    HW: 145?
    SW: 135 lbs
    CW: 123.8 lbs*
    I've lost about 11 since starting MFP. My goal is less about losing now, more about lowering my body fat % and toning. I also would love to stick to a consistent workout schedule. Did 30 min of elliptical and an hour and 15 of weights (arms and abs) this morning!

    After a lot of deliberation, here is my picture from today. As you can see, I'm "skinny fat" and need a lot of toning.

    You copied and pasted the direct link. Copy and paste the bottom option, IMG code. Once it is pasted, change IMG to lowercase img and you should have it.

    Hi sexy mamas! Sorry I'm unable to post to threads on weekends, but I do continue to log my food and workouts with the mobile app.

    My goals for the week are to stick with my workouts and hopefully get one in every day, which fits right in with our monthly challenge.

    Hey Sexy Mamas!

    Here are my goals this week:

    -log onto MFP everyday
    -HONESTLY record everything I eat, if I eat something I shouldn't, don't beat myself up over it, just plan an extra workout to burn it off. I'm thinking my actions will dictate the consequences at first but after a short while the thought of the consequences will determine my actions, know what I mean?
    -do a R25K run at least 5x a week
    -target one area of my body for strength training a day. There are some awesome itunes apps out there!
    -drink lots of water, way more than the 64 ounces recommended
    -NOT FEEL GUILTY every time I take time for myself and work out!

    I will post my weight and a before pic (uggg) when I get home tonight :)
