How's everyone been doing the past week? I've been to the gym a few times and got a few good workouts in. I finally discovered a tiny tiny space between my legs for the first time in years which is a huge NSV for me! That has me very motivated to keep going because I can tell I was getting a little lazy. I've lost about a pound. And even though today is Easter and I had a little bit of candy I probably burned it off chasing my baby cousins all around Getting back on the high horse tomorrow!

    I'm doing good. I lost 1lb also last week. I think I'm not consuming enough daily calories. This weekend was busy and I found myself eating some terrible things on Sunday even after I promise myself I wouldnt. I've tried to stay consist with my workouts. I'm little disappointed because I was looking to have loss more weight. I have to figure out what I'm doing wrong.

    Glad you are both doing well. I am down a bit, I have been playing with three pounds. 3 lbs up& 3lbs down for about a month now. It is very frustrating. I have been pretty good about sticking to drinking more water and green tea & eating 5 + fruits and veggies, but I have not been exercising so much. =0(. Maybe that will get better once kids go back to school, which is tomorrow. My best to all of you....

    I weight myself at the gymn today and I was up from my scale. I like to think I am down more then what the scale said at the gymn.
    But I did do two days of excerise and my fat burning in calories was up. I did go over to a friends house and eat there and my calories for the day were up from yesterday. That is disappointing. There is going to be a big feast tommorrow so I will really have to watch it. This time of year we do have a lot of pie around because of brandings in the community. Pie is my downfall even through we can eat some. I glad everyone has their story on this forum. It makes me feel that I connect with you folks.:blushing:

    I'm only weighing once a month so I have no idea what the scales are doing this week. I do know that my clothes fit better....almost loose.

    I have been doing great with keeping up w/ exercise. I've been eating well but having a hard time eating enough calories, oddly enough. I did have a pretty big splurge on Sunday but I logged everything and when I saw what weight they projected me at if I continued having days like that...well, let's just say that was motivation enough to get back to the right path on Monday! :-)

    I'm feeling good. :-)

    I know how that is. I've been fluctuating the same 5 lbs. for the past month or a little over and it drives me crazy. Probably best to change things up a bit. Most of it is food/diet but exercising does play a part in weight loss. Hopefully you'll be able to find some time to fit a workout in here and there. Good luck!

    That was April 13

    April 27: 197.5

    5.5lbs lost so far. Losing 10 by May 31 seems definitely feasable :)
