9=20-15 183.5 9-25-15 177.5

I know i've been missing in action for several weeks and have really had a hard time with lots of things going on.I'm starting over on a new high on my weight and not proud of it.Quit exercising even.I went from a low of 154 to a high of 183.5.I had to go back to a larger size in clothes.I just read some of the posts and…

I'm a looooong way from my challenge goal.I always said if I started gaining,even a pound, I would get it back off.As you can see,that didn't happen.So hear I go again. congratulations on your loss Gayle!!

You may be building muscle.It could also be a little fluid.You're doing exactly the right things.You know how finiky scales can be.

Charlie,glad you're feeling better.I do believe a visit to your family Dr. is needed.We can't take our health for granted. I'm not liking my new washing machine as much as I thought I would.Maybe after I get use to the noise.I thought it would be quieter.I was told those that didn't use much water make more noise.They may…

I KNOW I overate today.Logged it in and yelp ,ate too much .snacked too much.Didn't have a chance to exercise today.I had to put my life on hold yesterday waiting for a delivery on a new washing machine that didn't get delivered.life put on hold today waiting to get my washing machine.Finally delivered. Marney,trust your…

No excuses,just been under a lot of stress.Starting over tomorrow.

I haven't tried them.

Try putting fat free cool whip between two chocolate graham crackers,place in freezer bag and freeze.Good when you want ice cream.you can make a bunch at one time .

I try not to eat my exercise calories but glad I have them when I do go over my 1200 limit.It's good to have them when that happens.

From Spark People"Be Stronger Than Your Strongest Excuse".I really need to work on that one.

Gayle,it's a good thing we can always start over on a new day.I've had plenty of those.Only have 2 more days before weighin.I haven't been weighing in everyday as has been my habit.I did exercise the last 2 days which I had quit doing.Now if I can just get rid of some bad habits i've accumilated,mainly those pesky sweets.…

Me in a nut shell."If we fail to plan,we plan to fail."

Happy birthday Gayle!! I hope you have a fantastic day.

you're right,10 glasses is a smarter choice.

July3rd-171 My goal for today-exercise and drink 14 glasses of water, Long time goal-lose 10 lbs on this challenge.

I'm back,again.I've had my 3 grandchildren staying with me for a few days and they've decided they were ready to go home.Tomorrow I need to clean and straighten up,get things back to normal.

Confession time and it's not a good one.Still struggling after my downfall at Easter.I had no idea it would be so hard,for me,to get back on track.I had reached a high of 170.5!!!Today is 168.5.I went 2weeks without exercising and that long without getting my water quota in.I did exercise yesterday so that's a plus. I went…

FINALLY had a loss,been awhile.Monday I weighed in at 169 so I must have had some fluid issues.Made me determined to not see 170.I know I need to keep up on exercising and logging on my food intake.Also checking in on this wonderful group of ladies for wisdom and understanding.Thanks for the encouragement.

I mowed again today for 45 mins.but ended up eating over my calories.52 calories over.I may have to exercise some more to cover that.I hope everyone is ready for the weigh in tomorrow,come what may.

Cheryl,I have a very bad mentality about exercising and my eating habits.If I exercise I do pretty well about eating healthy.If I don't exercise I don't eat healthy.They have to go hand in hand.Both going on at the same time.It's crazy.I have Leslie Sansome walk at home tapes I use when I can't go out to walk.A 4 and5 mile…
