November challenge !!!!!!!!!!!! : >

Had a good day! Met all of my goals. Love all the posts. As EliMay says they make me laugh and make me cry. You all have become a huge family to me. I am glad that we can share not only our weight loss journey but also our private lives with each other. We all have a story to tell. EliMay so sorry about your sister. I also lost a sister 31 years ago. Wish I could have gotten to know her better. Not a day goes by when I don't think about her and the person she would have been. Thank you everyone!!!! You all ROCK my world. WE are an AWESOME bunch of people. Love you all.

Update for days 10 and 11: I did not do too badly on Thursday, just 200 calories over, 60 mins cardio, but only 40 ounces of water. Friday started fine, I even exercised at the hotel early in the morning. The good day lasted until 8 pm last night when I ate more than my entire daily allowance in snacks, and ended up doubling my allowed intake. My water intake was just 24 ounces yesterday. Everything is logged. The cashews were the killer! Seeing where the damage was done will hopefully give me something to think about the next time I reach for the can. I'll be back later to check in for day 11.

Stayed in goals yesterday.
A lot of these posts are very inspiring and heartbreaking!
But I love you all, and I know we'll all be alright in the end.

Hi, All! Hope you are doing well. I haven't been able to log the past few days, but you have all been in my hearts. Hoping everything is going well for you and your goals. I have been working on my goals, and I am celebrating the fact that during lunch out with my family today I said no to dessert. I also drank unsweetened tea.

Was delicious c:
80 Calories to spare tonight, not including the cleaning excersize I'm doing next.

I had a pretty good day today, I didn't make the best food choices but I met all my goals!

Okay so I had a horrible day with my eating yesterday. Just ate whatever I wanted and was almost 1,000 calories over. But you have to hear the best part. I laughed at myself it was so UNBELIEVABLE!!! I was so good about logging into the November Challenge and getting to read everyone's posts that I forgot to log into my diary on Friday. Woke up at 3 a.m. Saturday morning and could not believe it. Really had a senior moment and I had logged into for 90 days in a row. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT??? Still makes me chuckle and hope this brings a smile to all of your faces also.
You guys just mesmerize me and I forget about my diary. HEHEHEHEHE!!!
So I am starting over again with logging my food and exercise. Staples come out of my leg on Wednesday. CANNOT wait to start exercising again. I have really missed it. Hope you all have a blessed Sunday and do well.
Will check in at the end of my day.

Hi everyone, well I've had a lovely lazy Sunday with the family

Definitely eaten better today and had a decent workout, so I'm feeling much happier with myself.

Keep up the hard work everyone x

I also have been bad this weekend. I opted not to check in yesterday, because, I guess you could say I checked out for the day. Didn't diary. We had company for lunch, and didn't feel like calculating what I ate. Today I fell into the same rut of not wanting to calculate what I'm eating. However, tomorrow I plan to go to the gym. I need to because I know I won't be able to make it on Wednesday, and this week is both my husband's birthday and our anniversary. Lots of reasons to overeat. I know I will be having a 24 hour period where I won't be watching it, but other than that I will try to be good.

My weekend wasn't the best. I have the attitude that when I go over I might as well just keep going so I dug myself quite a hole this weekend with my calorie intake. Will work on getting back on track tomorrow. I realized today that I did not cook a single meal for the week--that is probably why the scale is stuck! Also....at 6 pm, I realized I had not had any water today so I have been hitting the water bottle. I was good and rode 30 miles on the bike this weekend and went out for a couple of walks so that was the only plus.

Good job Mom!!! And no more dangerous walks!!! :huh:

I've met all of my goals for today! :bigsmile: Ready to do it again tomorrow!!!

I did really good today, I went over my daily goal by 50 calories but then ran off 350 I drank lots of water and went for a walk also. I'm afraid I won't lose any weight this week because I was up .2 lbs this morning from my last weigh in. But I have a game plan! I'm going to start using more of my calories for fruits and veggies! At least for me, not all calories are created equal and I need to cut back on the fatty carby ones. I did work out 4 times this week WAHOO!!! I haven't been taking my daughter to the park because it's been snowy, so I've been taking her to the library instead which is just as good for socialization but also good for education! Anyways, it was a good day and I'm feeling positive despite the fact that I'm not expecting a big loss in the morning. I love you all!!! Goodnight!

Hello all.. So yesterday and today were great! I drank my green tea, stayed under my calories, got my strength training and calisthenics done and was over on my exercise amount.. got my healthy habit done and drank all my water! Woo hoo! How was everyone's weekend? I hope it was fun :-)
