    So, got on the scale this AM & it was up a bit. Hoping that by official weigh in tomorrow it has straightened itself out!

    Powerjenn, Tom, Rene, Leah & Shelli - nice job on the losses this week!!!

    Rohima - hoping for a better week next week :)

    Deepa - good work maintaining during a holiday week

    Surferfreak - good luck tomorrow!!

    Kristin - yay on your loss! You're on your way to the 150's! That must feel incredible!

    Dtermined2012 - once you weigh in tomorrow, give yourself a moment to reflect on the past week, write up some strategies you could put in place to prevent a re-occurence - then move forward concentrating on making the week at hand incredible :)

    Raia - Wow! Fabulous loss this week!

    Mandi - sounds like you had a frustrating week. Keep putting in the work & the results should follow.

    Lolita - sounds like a great plan!

    Jody - glad you hand a fun trip!

    kmariscde - great week! I need to dust off my 30 day shred!

    Marcy - hope you had a less tempting day today!

    Have a wonderful finish to your Sunday all - and best wishes for a successful upcoming week for us all.

    Hugs, Amy

    I think I'm going to post inch losses at my mini goal weights, if anyone else wants to join me (or if, like me, you care more about how you're feeling/looking instead of that number on the scale)!

    I was planning on doing the same!

    YES! THIS~! I need to remind myself this ALL THE TIME! I was over all 3 days on the weekend and enjoyed every minute of it. However, I'm pretty sure I'll be sad in the a.m. Only time will tell.

    Who starts a weight loss challenge and gains 2 lbs the first week?!?!? Me, apparently. I'll be honest, this was a really bad week for me. I got the news that a childhood friend of mine was found dead, I'm currently doing the job of 3 people at work (including training a new person), TOM came roaring in mid week and my 2 year old daughter is having surgery tomorrow morning.

    So, I'm admitting to making really bad choices, especially towards the end of the week. I'm wanting to put this week behind me and move forward and past this. I really need to learn to not emotionally eat and to use exercise instead of food to help with stress.

    So...sorry everyone! I promise to do better this next week! :embarassed:

    If you have any good vibes that you can send our way tomomrrow for the surgery, I'd appreciate it!

    Hello everyone! Busy hectic week this week, not just for me by the looks of the posts. My Dad got to go home today (Yay!), he's doing soooo much better! I only had 1 high calorie day this week (the 4th). All in all, I consumed 9,767 calories this week, 7 WHOLE days, a month and a half ago that would have been 2 days worth of calories, easy, and I'm eating 10 times more than I was too! Tomorrow morning is my weigh in, I'm hoping for a 1.8 lb loss this week, see you all at the scale!

    powerjenn - Mole sauce is a thick gravy type sauce which originated in Mexico. It is a combination of chocolate, chillies, garlic, and other spices that is most commonly served over chicken. My husband puts a little peanut butter in it too. Like any other dish, some people make it great while others... bleh...

    ginaquinn2 - Our first mini challenge was given late on Monday night by me. This is what it was. "For our first mini challenge, I'd like us to up our water intake. I know I always do this one first. ;-) It's very important!! Unless you are already drinking 8+ cups a day, the challenge is to drink at least 4 cups a day or one more cup than you usually do. If you already drink over 8 cups a day, please challenge yourself with something else!"

    Basically, this thread is like sitting around your dining table with some people you like to hang out with. :-) Someone will introduce a topic and it will get discussed for awhile and then someone will introduce something else, etc. It will be easy to follow, enjoy, participate in, etc. if you come here often and keep track of where you are at. One of our members gave a great post on how she does just that. If you come on here once a week, it will be harder and you definitely won't enjoy it as much or get as much benefit out of it. Your choice though.

    AmyByExample - I think you did fantastic, surviving the "lion's den"! Thank you so much for all of your supportive comments to everyone!

    CrysButcher3 - Yay for inches lost!

    bcdpearce - I'm glad your dad is doing better!

    surferfreak - Good luck with your interviews!

    Roni_M - Hope you enjoyed the concert!

    legnarevocrednu - Birthday week + holiday = weight loss? TERRIFIC!!

    Victoire2012 - Vacation = weight loss... GREAT!! "Love the support and motivation being part of this challenges brings." I'm so glad!

    Deedsie - All of the running and walking that you did... Nicely done!

    Shadowkitty22 - Yay for a healthier heart!

    kristinkt - Congratulations on that size of loss for you!

    thurberj - Seems like you had a nice vacation :-) and you are already doing great with dropping your vacation weight!

    Kmariscd - Yay for feeling stronger!

    AliciaLucas_72 - Good luck starting over tomorrow!

    RockyMtnJhawk - I'm sooo sorry about your friend's passing and your daughter having to have surgery tomorrow. :-( I hope all goes well!

    To those that weigh in tomorrow, and haven't read the comments on here, you sure missed out! Thanks to those that participated on here this week!

    One last thing... With all of the weigh ins tomorrow, this thread might roll over. For you newer members, once a thread reaches the equivalent of 500 messages, it becomes locked. To see where it continues, go to the end of page 20 (when this thread becomes locked and you can no longer reply). You will see an arrow, to click on, to where the thread has continued.

    P.S. Check out the thread below and see if one of the sayings is just what you need for motivation!
