    How many lbs do you think we will loose as a total for this week. I am guessing 50 lbs. for a total lost for all of us together. You all sound like you are working hard. What your guess?

    Go team gp!!!!!!!!! Caliecat

    Kolie-
    I totally understand you! I feel huge again! Ive been staying under my calories and working out, but ive been going over my sugar! Thats because of my slight addiction to mountain dew! :devil: :devil: I've done good with cutting back to 2 a day. Before I was drinking about 8 cans! OUCH!!!:sad: I feel like thats whats holding me back now and im having a hard time with headaches!


    Calie-
    I think we will lose around 50 as well! We are all working hard!
    Good luck!

    I agree about 50 lbs!

    Pickles Pickles Pickles!!! Yeah mountain dew is good but No Bueno for you :sick: it has a VERY VERY high caffine level :drinker: which is why you are getting headaches from cutting down...caffine withdrawl:brokenheart: it can be a killer, but you can do it!!!

    I worked out today but I skipped Tuesday and Wednesday!!! I was just way to tired. I did a lot of running around those to days so hopefully that will help. Lucky for me I don't have an addiction to soda but I did have a friend who did. She switched to green tea.....it doesn't have as much caffine but it helped relieve her headaches. Plus it has tons of antioxidents. Anyways my pants are getting loose and it feels damn good!!!!

    I used to drink a double mocha every morning. I cut them out 2 weeks ago, I still drink diet soda but have also cut that back to 1 a day rather than 3 or 4. Luckily I don't have headaches but for the first week I felt like I couldn't wake up in the mornings without my coffee. I remembered reading in one of those silly emails about random facts that apples have more "wake- you- up" than a cup of coffee, so I figured I would give it a try. IT WORKED. I love my apple in the morning now, it has become my coffee...

    Oh yeah, my guess is for 40lbs

    I'd like to join this group, too! I am excited about loosing weight. I have been on the heavy side of normal my whole life, but when I had my baby 2 years ago I put 50 lbs on top of that. I am now 20 lbs above my preprego weight. I had such an appetite while I was nursing that I never took the weight off. I weaned about a month ago, and I can finally cut enough calories to shed some poundage. I would love the support of others in a similar situation!

    Good morning, :flowerforyou: how's everyone doing so far????
    I guessing maybe 40 lbs all together!!!

    Welcome aarie and skips too...hope we can give you loads of help.

    onmyweigh, I hope your trip goes well... I know what you mean about being afread...We to a 10 hr. trip last month to visit my in-laws and I came back 8lbs heaver even though I tryed to be so good.....The last week of this month I get to drive 14 hrs. to Idaho for a few days then turn around and drive to New mexico all in a week. I don't know how I'm going to do this without putting on the lbs...I think I'm going to pack my scale and lap top..... Any travel tip??????

    pickles i use to be addicted to Mt Dew. I've desided it's bad stuff.... and not good for dieting....so I just quit cold turcky and haven't had one in years....I wasn't easy.....I'ed go with the green tea though. this year I've tried giving up soda all together I've desided I can find better chooses for my allowed calorise.. So I have one maybe everyother week... the less I drink it, the less I want it....
    AW hope everyone alse is having a great week...... keep moving. I guess I'ed better.:bigsmile:

    Hi All!!! :bigsmile:

    Halfway there...uh it is so hard to stay away from that darn scale!!! :angry:

    I am totally balloted and feel soooooo heavy :cry: I hate it...hopefully I will sweat it out tonight but I can't stand this heavy dragging feeling :grumble:

    So I been staying within my Calorie intake this week and have not missed a night of working out :happy: so at least I have something good to report :wink: I just hope it shows on Sunday :bigsmile:

    Everyone keep up the great work and see u all Sunday YAY!!!
    If your feeling bloated try an Activia yogurt, they work a treat! I like the fruit layer especially raspberry and this is 106 cals or you can have the non layer ones and these are around 80 cals and some of them are fat free!!! :happy:

    Anyways, I don't know if i can weigh in this week b/c my scales have run out of battery and i can't find the right battery anywhere :explode: :explode: :mad:
    I will carry on looking.. wish me luck :laugh:
    Vicky :flowerforyou:
    p.s i hope this helped :happy:
    P.P.S i think we will lose around 45 pounds ish :laugh:

    Hello Everyone! Welcome to all the newcomers!!! It's never too late to join!! Why, you ask??....Because it's NEVER too late to take care of yourself!!

    I am so happy to be part of this group!!!

    I give myself one "Cheat" day a week and that helps me a ton!!! I find that I eat what I want one day a week, I just eat small portions and drink extra water that day, so I feel fuller and it's really working for me. Then I don't feel starved and I don't stress. It took a long time to put the weight on, and it will take a while to take it off so BE PATIENT WITH YOURSELVES!!!

    I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's results on Sunday!

    Good luck and everyone and take care!

    Good morning!! I only lost about a half pound. But, more importantly, I have stopped drinking 3 or 4 Cokes a day. And, I don't really miss it like I thought I would. Before joining MFP I'd reach for one and think, I should drink water, but shrug off that thought. Logging everything and seeing the numbers makes a huge difference!

    Congrats Jax and Parrot on losing 3 and 4 pounds each! Woo hoo! Now I feel challenged!!

    Suggestion for road trip: When you stop for a potty break make it at least 20 minutes and take a brisk walk. I live in MIchigan. All our reststops have dog runs. Plenty of space to walk and usually wooded. I haven't been out of state much, but I would hope other states would provide nice rest areas, too.

    re: Cheat Day - I golf on a quasi-league (we don't keep score) on Wednesdays so that's my Cheat Day for food. I know I'll burn it off with golfing (pulling clubs). So, Wednesday is pizza day!! And a 20 oz Coke. Usually I drink 12oz can
