    It's a great Sunday morning and God has blessed us with another day, awesome! I am doing well with eating clean and not feeling hungry.This eating every 2-3 hours is great! I haven't stopped craving junk, but eventually "they" say I will. It's difficult when there is non-healthy food in the house like chips and sweets,but I'm doing it. I keep reminding myself, I WANT to do this, and this is for me, and junk food is no good for my body,inside or out. I have noticed my skin, especially on my face is looking great! I love this! I can't attest for my hair getting healthier, as my hair is so short and I always spike it with hairspray now, but it is really soft before i set it stiff with spray! My nails are growing (and not splitting as they used to) so that is something I have noticed too. I just feel good knowing I putting the right foods in my body to make it healthy. End of next week I will incoporate walking into my plan. Oh, drinking a cold glass of water first thing when I wake up has helped too, suppose to "wake up" your metabolism and help with (bathroom difficulties ) yes I said that. It does work, for me anyway. I hope everyone has a great Sunday and remember one day at a time. We can all do this. Look at all the support we have!
    Again, if anyone needs extra or personal motivation/support feel free to pm me.

    Later everyone, I will check in again tonight.
    Take care of YOU

    You can do it!!! I have faith in anyone who has the motivation and determination to do it. My motto: Inspiration=Motivation. I blog everyday and some days are struggles for me and others are really easy to get through.. if you need support you can always read my blogs, recently I just interviewed my sister who lost 80 lbs in 1 year. she is on weight watchers but she looks amazing. So if you want to, you can friend me on here and take a look at my blog: www.eatbloginspire.wordpress.com

    Good luck in your journey :)

    I am 43 and I thought my ultimate weight goal was 15lbs away. Then I went on the Jillian Micheals website, put in my stats and it came back that my target weight is at the high end of where I could be?! I am still going to aim for that weight. Haven't been that thin since I quit smoking 20 years ago and got married. I ordered her Body Revolution CDs and can't wait to commit to 30minutes a day for 90 days. Hoping to look and feel great by late spring. I think it's the goal motivation I need:smile:

    I was looking at all the people that joined you in your request that is awesome.
    I would love to be part of the team, I would like to lose 30lbs this year. cheers to the journey :smile:

    I gave up drinking soda 2 weeks ago, I lost 7 lbs that first week of which I'm sure was water weight but I feel lighter and my clothes feel better as well. I have been drinking only water during the day aside from my one cup of coffee in the morning which is a treat I look forward too. I think drinking water is really important when trying to lose FAT, I heard it helps to flush out the fat.

    I did well in my eating today, but I did splurge in a small cupcake. it was a bake sale for some cheerleaders...Couldn't resist the german chocolate cupcake. I opted for the one with practically no frosting.

    Frosting is gross FYI. I had to make buttercream icing and it's all lard or butter. That grosses me out.

    In a better mood today than yesterday and feeling good about my weight loss. Yes, as I told my home girls, I broke down and got a scale. Couldn't take it any longer wondering what I weigh.
    The clean pumpkin muffins I made came out good, have to be careful not to eat too many. I already ate two today, and that's quite enough, healthy or not!
    Hope everyone is doing well, and loving their journey.
    Take care.

    I'm 5'3" and was super close to my goal last year but then the holidays came up on us and I get lazy! Ended up gaining back 20 of the 35 pounds I had lost!! Needless to say I'm very frustrated and angry with myself, as this seems to be a pattern for me.

    But, this time, I'm hoping being part of MFP will help me stick with the plan and finally get this weight off and KEEP IT OFF!
