It's been a week - so far, so good
Not really happy with how much I ate on free day, but it IS free day so I don't count that as a slipup. Been under goal every day this week and plan to continue to do so. How are we all doing?

Day 3
How did we all do? I'm hanging in there, free day is tomorrow - when I wake up, NOT at the stroke of midnight (much as I wish it was). Still, going to try not to go crazy tomorrow - a small breakfast and then a nice dinner (probably bbq, craving it bad) and a small dessert. Maybe a Bueno bar - anyone else like those? I'm…

BENCHMARK CHALLENGE / INSTAGRAM
Hey all, since we're all here to motivate and push each other for the month of May, I thought you guys would be interested in a benchmark challenge my dear friend who is also a personal trainer is doing for the month of May on her instagram.

Happy Cinco De Mayo!
Or is that just a Cali thing? :p It's a new day y'all, lets do it right today - we're five days into May already. Time goes fast, June will be here soon - it'll be nice to look back on June 1st and say "We did it!", or even "I slipped up a couple times, but for the most part I did great". Yesterday was free day for me, & I…

Day 2
I was feeling very discouraged yesterday. I made the mistake of looking through old FB pictures and realized that with even 50 lbs lost, I was still not where I was in a stage in my life when I still felt severely obese. (not sure if this sentence made sense). Those feelings turned into irrational cravings, (I'm an…

Cheat/Free Days - do you do them?
I've had a "free" day (I don't call it cheat day because it's planned - I'm not "cheating" on anything) since I first started my weight loss. It works for me - if I have a craving for a food, I know it's never more than six days away. It's really helped me stay on track. Originally it was free day, then for a while I just…

Quest bars (and fitness bars in general)
I've just discovered these... I've tried the cookies and cream one, which was amazing, and the strawberry cheesecake, which was straight up awful. But the Quest peanut butter cups are really, really good. Same cals as a Reeses, but a lot less sugar and carbs. I like Odwalla's bars, specifically the Blueberry Swirl, and it…

Welcome and an explanation of this group
I was inspired to create this group because of a post on my friends feed from itsolyo - she said she planned to go through May without cheating. I thought that was a great idea and told her I was in, as did a couple other people - and then I thought, why not make a group for it. But as I was making the group, I thought…
