    Hi Again

    I am sorry to say that i think we have lost 1 or 2 members.
    Please don't QUIT!
    Together we can make it work. I really want it to work this time for me!
    We all have times that we can't post anything. There are plenty of reasons; even I had that last week. Don't forget just to pick it up again
    I am sure all of us have watched the Biggest loser. We all have that in ourselves.
    Ok maybe we don't have that personal trainer, and that big amount of money to win and all the other things but .......

    WE CAN do IT!!!

    I don't want to see anyone stopping here, DO YOU HEAR!!!!!

    Please say out loud RIGHT NOW

    I DO NOT QUIT
    I AM A WINNER

    Ha ha:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Please give us new ideas to continue!!
    New members with great ideas are welcome

    Have a great day

    Love Patty

    Hi Everyone!

    Hope you are all having a good week!

    I on the other hand am havin a disaterous week, I have had a 40th birthday party , my daughter's birthday party and my friends going away dinner ( she is moving to Alaska :sad: :sad: :sad: ). So to say the least I have not been making very good food choices or making it to the gym at all:grumble:

    And at the same time my partner and I are trying to figure out whetner to move to Canada to be closer to my family...after 9 years of living I am ready for the change BUT at the same time all my bad food eating habits would return with the move as the convience of unhealthy foods is sooo tempting...where as hear I have to drive 1/2 an hour for fast food...not really fast hehehe:laugh: We would have to live with my mother til we decide exactly what town we want to live in and that would definately make me put on weight stress eating and she always house the house full of junk food :mad: So the stress of making the decision is making me stress eat:explode:


    Heading to the gym tonight to work off all these unhealthy choices

    Sorry ladies just needed to vent and my partner wouldn't quite understand.

    Jiggybits-it's a tough decision to know if want to move agian just do whats best for you.when i moved almost 9 yrs ago it was hard away from my family but it was the right decision for me.Good luck.

    Morning!!! I made it through my workout last night. I had mentied on another thread that I was feeling a bit blue yesterday so I decided to try new DVD's so I would be forced to concentrate on that and to stop thinking. It did work and I felt better. I ended up doing two WATP 30 minute DVD's and then 20 minutes of abs on a cardio dance dvd. I can't keep my heart in the target zone with WATP but I still like the DVD's.

    Nobody wanted to cook yesterday. My husband had a taste for Chinese. So, he ate that and I did end up cooking some zucchini, rice and tomatos for myself. Glad I did that. Just wasn't in the mood to feel bloaty for the rest of the week.

    Angl- Happy early birthday!! By all means HAVE CAKE!!!!!

    Jigglybits-Some weeks are going to be diasterous for all of us!! I will have one at the end of September with my husband's birthday and then another birthday celebration the following weekend. Just do your best and keep moving forward. Wishing you luck on making your decision about moving.

    Jennie-There are 4 of us on this thread that are in Michigan. Or at least 4 that I know of.

    Patty- I saw that some people haven't checked back. I keep hoping that they just have been too busy to post. I know one of the reasons I post so often is that if I know I have to post...then I will be more likely to make sure to get my workout in. I do it as a way of being accountable for myself. I know others might not need to be that extreme. It's good that you brought the topic up though so they know we're still here for them.

    I just noticed this smiley face :huh: This is how I look today.

    I was 198.8 yesterday and the same today. At least I know I can maintain my weight for 24 hours. lol.

    I'm off work until Wednesday. Going to get some projects done around the house and hopefully get my workouts switched to the morning.

    Have a great day everyone!

    I weighed in today at 211. That is a 2 pound loss this week, a 5 pound lost overall. I was down more earlier in the week, but got lazy the last couple of days. It really is a 24/7 committment.

    Congrats to everyone on a great week. Gains, losses, or maintaining, we have all been getting healthy together for 4 weeks now. :drinker:

    Good morning ladies, I weighed in at 220lbs today which shows a 2lb weight gain:cry:

    I was not surprised by the gain because I made some poor nutritional choices last week. I had maybe two workouts, I guess it was an off week for me. I had a lot of things on my mind and I just could not concentrate on myself. Also, I was just being lazy. I am going to put all of that to the side and begin to concentrate on what is good for me. I AM GETTING BACK ON THE COMMITTMENT WAGON!!!!!!!!!

    :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Angelae39: CONGRATULATIONS for your 2lb loss.
    Jigglybits: YOU GO GIRL!!!!

    Oh NO
    I gained
    And just because of that I did the worst thing
    ... started eating chocolate
    Now I feel even worse and going out for a jog in a short while.
    I feel so good when I receive messages with Yeah I lost
    and than I gain
    Why did I do that?

    Oke not having my best day but shouldn't take it out on the chocolate.
    maybe because I didn't take any chocolate since we started Hmm??

    Up to next week

    Hi

    As you all read just now I was pissed of with myself

    BUT

    I have been using the cross trainer in the house since 4 weeks and build it up from nothing to something. Just now I went to a running track. That has been more than a year ago.
    After the warm up and walking in between I did 3 times 5 min run.
    It might not we much for some of you but to me it was a real achievement.
    Half way the run it started to rain and I did not want to stop I was thinking about the chocolate I ate, I kept going.
    All the others had stopped already. While I kept running I was smiling at myself and talking to my self.
    Yes you can do it and I did it. :happy:
    During my cool down I broke out in sweat and smiles and the rain stopped hahaha

    I feel Good!

    My hubby outstation and I had to get it of my chest.
