HeartsDesire: so sorry you aren't feeling well, glad you rested and hope you feel better soon. I do love your goal 3, I may need to be more conscious of this to keep my focus. MAK: thank you for starting this thread again and for your continued support. Even though you didn't get an am workout in, glad you found time later…

My goals are mostly a repeat of last week's: Chalean, six times this week: (last week I accomplished this at least) 3 fruits/veggies: (about half the time last week) no, only 2 :( Protein higher than fat: (failed as a week, it looked like when I first started MFP) whew, way over in calories! But anyhow, not even close to…

My goals are mostly a repeat of last week's: Chalean, six times this week: abs count as .5 3 fruits/veggies: I'm still not even close for this becoming a habit Protein higher than fat: For whatever reason I'm struggling, I am going to be all over with calories however, as I'm trying to find a nice balance to maintenance.…

Shellitz: I think you should get one, how fun! And glad the girls joined in the fun. How nice to be a part of a group that close. Amberness: Kenpo is the only one I've tried of p90x (a coworker brought it in once). It was fun! melkadee: welcome! jilleebean: great loss! Gwen: lol, your right, only breathing fumes should…

My check in: Chalean, six times this week: 3.5. Today was really a good day in the beginning with energy! I did push circuit 3 in between the 40 minutes I drop off my 7 yr old and then 16 yr old. I went to the gym and burned 562 calories on the elliptical (I've only ever burned 500). And I did some ab work (small amount)…

bhurley: hope your lil one starts to sleep well for you. Good job keeping on those goals even sleep deprived and glad you got a workout in. MAK: glad you aren't beating yourself up about resting, I'm quite sure you need it. And I think tea should count as water, especially if you're sick. HeartsDesire: what a great check…

Amazing LadyGloria!! Love it!

welcome back, hope you feel recharged! My check in: Chalean, six times this week: 2.5, no, lost all motivation but to drag myself through the motions of keeping kids/myself going today.I actually sat at one point in the day for 3 hours. I never do that. I told my husband he better drag my butt onto the floor and do abs…

To myself: My goal tomorrow is to do the elliptical and burn 550 calories. I've no idea how much longer this will increase my time. I simply want the calorie burn goal! danylyn: sounds like you made up for Monday with Tuesday, good job! It's hard for me to get going in the mornings too for whatever reason, and I'm a…

amazing job, and I'm envious of the inches off of your waist!!

My fitness goals are to stay active 5 out of 7 days, cardio twice a week, weight/strength training three times a week.

sucky!! When it rains, it pours, eh? Feel better! Silvercivic: a no binge month sounds quite lovely as a goal. Good luck to you in achieving it! MiniMichelle: what a cute dog, yours? Shellitz: motorbike riding? how fun!! I wanna Gwen: like how you described the dragging behind a car. I just recently hopped on the…

Me too!! I have a 7 o'clock no drinking rule, lol, like you'd give a little kid. But at least I sleep through the night. My issue is I drink so much all the time, it's so hard to stop.

arwaleenah: yeah, eating small meals is sometimes easier to add up on the calories, though I'm not as hungry and don't feel the need to eat as much in one sitting. la_nanita: I'd feel off balance with ankle weights too. And I was ROFL with her comment as well. Thanks for re-quoting it so I could again enjoy. Weight lost in…

My check in: Chalean, six times this week: 2.5, no, day of rest, did the elliptical with a friend (just not motivated to chalean's cardio solo). 3 fruits/veggies: 4, made up for yesterday :smile: Within calories, protein being higher than fat: yes, but my goodness is the fat going to throw out my whole week's percentage…

My check in: Chalean, six times this week: 2.5, did ab burner and push 2 today. Liking the push circuit so far. 3 fruits/veggies: made 2 today, so not quite Within calories with protein being higher than fat: not even close, fat percentage much higher and over calories Don't let my family drag down my eating habits:…

sandykw1: great job in making your goals thus far. jennyph: every time I see your Billy Blanks workout, makes me want to to do it. Papillon: lol, you'll be professional, I'm sure. Yummy sacrifice. usernamekelly: come on in here to interact and/or motvation as much as you want. I find that most of us just log in once a day.…

shellitz: Good plan to go to the gym, way to preplan for the sugar high.

ambie: welcome! I think your goals are a fantastic start to a lifetime of healthy. Glad you've only got 5 lbs to lose (the most difficult part of the journey for some?). surfgrl: I love walking, it's so relaxing, so love the 30 minutes a day. Is it cold where you're at? danlyn: Planning ahead to not impulsively eat is such…

My check in: Chalean, six times this week: 1 (recharge). LadyGloria: I do weight training only three times a week, with an every other day break. It's the cardio/stretching aspect I want to start incorporating more. I do the ab burner video about 4 times a week. 3 fruits/veggies: made it :) Within calories with protein…

welcome sandykw, what're your goals? welcome IamBrande, exercise is one of my struggles, glad eating isn't one of yours! biglovelovesme: nice to see you here, absolutely zero candy is a steep goal, hope you reach success with it!

ladygloria: I think you are amazing and congratulations on the awesome victory!! I still remember the first time being separated from my baby, good luck with going out of town on both levels! My goals are mostly a repeat of last week's: Chalean, six times this week: abs count as .5, and hoping since I increased the number…

My check in: Chalean, five times this week: 5, accomplished!! Tried push 1 today and ab burner. Push wasn't as bad as I thought. 3 fruits/veggies: 4, yay!! I was so determined today. Within calories with protein being higher than fat: protein was my focus today and I hit it exactly!! Down side: I had two protein scoops…

Smurfette: thanks for sharing. I should throw in some dancing!

Shellitz: fantastic job!! So excited for you!

philosohoe: I'm so glad you're upping your exercise, I think it's important to your mental wellbeing too. Mmm, chocolate, make sure you don't go overboard. You're really doing quite well on your deficit to have hit and exceeded it already. On a personal note: thanks for texting me, you're always right on with me and I…

My check in: Chalean, five times this week: 3.5, day of rest unintentionally. But I truly did nothing yesterday. 3 fruits/veggies: no only 1, gosh :grumble: Within calories with protein being higher than fat: no :sad: Gosh I need to get my eating habits back on track. Don't let my family drag down my eating habits: yeah,…

Oh my goodness Smurfette, just logged in my exercise and saw how many minutes you do! That's insane, what keeps you motivated? I need some of that!

Papillon: thank you, I guess I'm being silly, but again, my husband doesn't hurt me, working out downright kicks my butt sometimes. My check in: Chalean, five times this week: 3.5, day of rest. I took it faithfully (well, except the elliptical and roller skating) 3 fruits/veggies: no, didn't meet this goal, only 2 :(…

What I've noticed is that you don't eat enough calories on a lot of days. I didn't start losing once I hit my plateau until I upped my calories. Have you tried that? Try it for a few weeks, continuing everything else, and see if that helps. Sorry about your headache, and your frustration.
