    So my leg and ankle were in mild pain today, no Jillian, but I did do a 30 min Pilates so I would have at least something for the day... NO idea how I'm going to work off my over extended day on Sunday b tomorrow morning, but oh well:ohwell:

    I'll focus on my calories and watch what I eat... Maybe tomorrow I can do a nice walk during the day light hours:laugh:

    Left overs for lunch

    Hope everyone has a great day..
    Weigh in tomorrow for me:wink:

    Something is better than nothing!! I wouldn't push yourself too far because your injured so be careful :)

    Abutler - It's tomorrow.....did you go to the gym last night? I hope you did, but if you didn't, thats ok every once in a while. I know for me, I am just too stressed this week, trying to get things done before we leave. I have allowed myself to not go this week, but I am making sure that I stay within my calories. Since there is no exercise, I am focusing on what I can still control.

    Amanda--- love your name! (Mine is Amanda, too!)

    I did not make it to the gym after all but do plan to go later on this evening. I woke up with a nasty, hacking cough. I think it is just allergies but I have a doctor's appt in an hour to be safe--- I have a 3 month old nephew I am around almost daily and want to make sure I don't have any kind of flu!

    I put new songs on my Ipod to get me in the mood to workout, so hopefully that will be enough motivation!

    AButler- i hope your not sick and I do hope you find the motivation to work out. even walking is better than nothing. We will help motivate if we can.

    ourgang- just take it easy, watch what you eat and do what you can. Your body needs to work on healing your wounds before it works on losing weight.

    vanimami- have you been keeping measurements on yourself. You could be losing inches of fat and gaining muscle. Muscle weighs more than fat and you said you have been weight lifting. Also have you been doing pretty much the same workouts for three weeks? If you have your body might be hitting a plateau and you need to do something completely different. Sometimes your body needs to be shocked into something different to make it kick in to overdrive again. If you need ideas just let me know.

    stormchaser- way to go on the exercising everyday. Four days straight is great. Make sure you give yourself one day of break at least. That way you won't burn yourself out and be tired of going to the gym you should have a great weigh in, I'm looking forward to hearing how everyone is doing.

    Yes, I have been measuring myself, but I've only REALLY been at this for like 3 weeks, so I can't be pleatuing, also I attend all kind of fitness classes, so I've been varying it up :grumble: I wont' get too discourage and will try to keep it up...it must come off eventually, right :drinker:

    So I was up today:grumble: :grumble: :explode:

    I can't change that, but I can focus on what is important.. Wise food choices and getting up whenever possible. Still in some pain, will do pilates again and going to see my chiropractor today.....

    This is a life long journey and I won't let this gain set me back.
    I will lean on my Heavenly Father and remind myself this is his body, mind, and soul to change!!!!

    Hope everyone has a great day.
    Praise God
    God Bless

    Yes, stay positive! Just keep working out and eating right and you'll be fine, it just takes time. For instance, I have been working out for 3 weeks and have been stuck at the same weight :grumble: But I will stick with because I know it will come off! :smokin:

    Well this week might not be a good one, I have exercised everyday but I did take yesterday off but I ate like everything in site, its also TOM! I have NO energy today at all it was everything just to get out of bed this morning. I checked the scale this morning and it said that I had gained 2lbs, this is horrible I can't seem to get past the 240 mark, I try to stay close to my calorie intake and I've exercised more than I have in awhile and I feel better but I'm just getting really FRUSTRATED at this point!

    I have been trying that 30 day shred video and then I go to the gym at night and work on the machines, What is it going to take for me........

    Sorry all I just needed to vent, I hate these mood swings with TOM. I pray I can get that scale to look different come sat morning!

    Keep up the good work!! Your weight will naturally fluctuate 2-3 lbs in a day, maybe more so don't sweat it. I actually refuse to weigh myself everyday because when I see even the smallest gain, it puts me in a bad mood!

    Have you been taking measurements? Are your clothes fitting better? Muscle does weigh more than fat and you are kicking butt in the gym!!

    stormchaser also consider if its TOM you will have a little extra weight just remember that when you weigh in. You are still doing good, keep it up
