    Hi Patty,

    I will join you. I went to the doctor today and have put on 11 pounds since April. I am so frustrated, however am willing to keep trying. Count me in, however I am going to need some motivation.

    Thanks

    So what are you guys thowing out of the cubboard,
    and what will be in yor next shopping trolly
    For me:
    peanuts out -celery in
    gouda cheeseout -laughingcow cheese in
    Cheezels out -pretzels in

    I have 3 kids, I should keep some for them but I guess not the first few weeks then the temptation would be smaller for me.

    Hi

    Preparations for monday.

    I think I have to buy a new food-scale. I have such an old one and I think that my thinking of what the weight of everything is is way out. So that will be on my shopping list as-well with
    - celery and peanut-butter
    - brown rice
    - tomatoes/ fruits
    - lots of vegetables
    - mushrooms ( Oh I love them)

    But as of today, I start with rule no 1
    NO more eating after 8 pm

    Can you help me with the list for monday???

    Good luck to all of you!

    Hi
    I am new to this so what do you mean by daily and monthly challanges.
    I record my daily food intake and exersize is that it or what we place on this site?
    Well done that you are working out every day.
    I am not so into sports so I have to make a big effort.
    I did yesterday 30 min on my cross-trainer 200 cal. That was a good start for me!

    well for daily challenges,you come on tell us a challenge like tomorrow we all should try to do 20 sit-ups,tricep kick backs, bicep cruls,and pusch ups.and then it gets to more and more.like today i did 50 of each,plus 45 mins on the treadmill runningand some walking.

    Hi

    Tomorrow is the day.
    hunibun, sandif1, rsabey, La Donna are we all in!!!
    Anyone else please join.
    I have been trying to work out a little but have to build up my stamina it/s very low. After 2o min on the cross trainer I am tired.
    My Old pair of jeans is hanging in my bedroom. This is the first time I get my kids involved, I told them what i want to achieve. My second son (8) says he wants to be my coach, so sweet.
    I asked my hubby's support to do the measuring for me, ha ha. Yes he really thought that was funny.
    I have changed my weight to lbs since all of you are using that.

    GOOD LUCk to all of you and don't forget to weigh in tomorrow morning.

    Hi (8.30 am lokal time in the office )

    A very good morning to all of you.
    Today is the beginning of a new me (ha ha)
    I feel lots of new energy to give me a good start.
    My weight as of today is 169.3 lb
    My goal is 145 lb
    So I would like to lose 24 lb

    How?
    Eating right
    Exersize
    Talking to all of you

    I took all measuraments over the weekend.
    Bought carrots, mushrooms, celery, whole grain rice, lots of fruits
    Bought a digital kitchen scale

    Started this morning with my ab roller (after I cleaned it with lots of dust and covered with clothes).
    I did 50. For a girl with no stamina its a good start, I think .
    I will do 50 again tonight and do it every other day.
    My cross trainer stands in my kids studyroom.
    When they do their homework i will go on it for 30 min./40 if possible.

    I had a apple/carrot/celery juice for breakfast and have crackers for coffee time.
    That's it for now.

    Who is joining me! :smile:
