    Soooo happy today, these challenges always get me back on track, and given my age there is no exscuse for being overweight since it has the potential to come off so easily. But I am back down to 145.6 from 148 yesterday. I doubt I will make the whole month I just dont have that sort of attention span, but I am trying

    I am super excited! This morning I tried on a pair of pants that are 3 sizes less than the pants I was wearing in December and they fit. I am actually wearing them right now! It's the little things in life! :bigsmile:

    Ok, I actualy walked a mile yesterday.
    I logged all of my food, that make 5 days in a row.
    I completed the 10 minute trainer and no diet coke.

    I am on a row. Thank you for the group. I usually don't make it that far.

    Goals for March:

    Lose 6 pounds
    Walk 240,000 steps (hope that's right - trying for 60,000 a week starting this week).
    Go to exercise class 3 times a week

    I'm a slow loser but I've got my fingers crossed!

    WHAT A NIGHT....Antone Davis, last years biggest loser finalist, came to town and did a biggest loser style workout with anyone wishing to join him....I went and boy were my eyes opened to just how bad off I am....It was a very humiliating workout and I'm so glad that I went. I have no idea what to call this workout to log it into my exercise :laugh: I am more determined than ever to shed all these pounds and get in shape.

    @ Kim thank you so much for your encouragement!

    I haven't watched The Biggest Loser until this season and now I absolutely love this show. I feel like they are a part of my family because I understand their struggles!

    Didnt excercuse yesterday, boooo, was up a bit but down from lately today but thats fine, dont think ill binge tonight, just drink a bit more than I should but seeing as I didnt eat breakfast or lunch and ate 430 cal at panera at 5 I doubt ill be able to eat anything here tonight so ike idk, 50 cal a cup orange juice and vodka, what could the damage really be? I did have a bit of cream in my coffee and a 150 calories fiber bar thing at some point today, Im not hungry though, think Ill probably be about the same tomorrow and depending on how this night goes might do abs and walk, yogas not gonna happen

    Walked again tonight with the American Idols....down to 33.5 more miles! My weigh in day is tomorrow and I am so proud to say I have exercised everyday for 10 days in a row now!! (some days morning AND night!!) I really expect to have a good weight loss this week and I am thrilled!! I do have some challenges this weekend by taking a group of youth to a youth conference and I'm not sure where we will be eating, so I will give it my best shot and take my snacks with me! I refuse to let ballgames and other events stand in my way!!!! :wink:

    So I have walked everyday for the past 12 days...two of those days were hikes.....one of those days was my workout with biggest loser contestant Antone Davis. I can not begin to tell you how sore I am!! I hurt all over, but my level of committment is higher than it's ever been. Tonight I did my two miles in the pouring down rain....sounds crazy I know, but I don't have a treadmill and I knew that if I skipped one night I could very well set myself up for getting out of a good habit. I do however need a full body massage!!..:wink:
