I agree Erin, I overate the other day and I felt gross I think we are getting used to how much to eat and what to eat for the most part! I had headaches at first from giving up cafeine (diet pop) so I started drinking one coffee a day and believe me I hate coffee so it wasn't easy for the substitue, but now I make one…

My knees are doing so much better, I used to actually not be able to stand straight without my knees popping from weight and pain and they haven't done that in weeks. I posted this in another thread but my boobs come first and not my belly now, woohoo me, okay so I have big boobs always had but that's besides the point,…

I have been on a plateau for 3 weeks but I have noticed inches and my clothes are so much loose, but the best part is and this really is the best part, my boobs are farther out then my tummy, woohoo me! Yeah I know i'm a loser, lol.

Tomorrow is my weigh in and i'm hoping for at least a pound although I wasn't very active or great with food today so we shall see. Congrats to all you lovely people, you are doing amazing!

Thanks Caitlynn this is awesome!

Well we will let everyone log in when they have done their weigh in, whatever works for everyone, I wouldn't weight myself tomorrow morning as i've been bad.... should never have deprived myself of lunch, now I have to go mow the grass, ughh... punishment and exercise all at once.

You are too funny Caitlyn! Well i've had a bad 20 minutes, actually a bad whole day at this point, so it happens!

Good idea Bev, let's do that!

They all sound yummy and you guys are making me hungry. I made lasagna for my family tonight but only took a small piece. it was yummy but not calorie conscious! I will be trying these out!

Great idea, I need to pick up some containers too, I am the same way at work, no time to stop so we are allowed to eat at our desks and still get paid but no time to really go get anything or heat anything up so I tend to stay with easy stuff, like guacamole and nacho chips to dip, vegies, fruit, today I made tuna salad…

Lol, I think you are safe! I once dreamt I ate a big white marshmellow and woke up and my pillow was gone, hahahaha, just kidding. The best calories are those that we dream about nothing goes to our hips that way. I'm also always super hot in my dreams, lol.

A snack for energy can be a good idea, but not too big as that can also upset your tummy. A protein bar might be a better idea. What ever works for you, now that you've tried both ways, try maybe some nuts or a bar and see if that helps. Good luck let us know!

I usually do it on Saturday morning, my weekends tend to be busy and not always on track diet wise so I figure if I do it on Saturday morning i've had all week to undo any damage I might of done. I am more into inches right now as the scale doesn't seem to be moving! Maybe we can share our success with each other as we…

That's a great idea!

Lol dinner sounds delicious, it's only 4:15 here so haven't started on dinner yet. I won't open my diary till I'm a much healthier eater as right now I think people would fall over in shock on some days, lol.

Boy I wish they had a like button, lol.

It was foggy here this morning but when I got off work it was sunny and very very hot and humid. I walked home and made the walk longer into an hour for more exercise and boy was I hot and looked like a stinking tomotoe but at least some exercise got done today plus i've already drank 14 glasses of water, helps when you…

Well I came home from work, after an hour long walk and my daughter was laying on her bed watching Bones without me, lol. I haven't really watched The Game of Thrones though!

Welcome to the group Josie, glad to have you join us, we are going to keep this group pretty small so that we can help and support each other much better and be able to see when someone is asking for support, issues etc. Eating enough calories is key otherwise your body thinks you are trying to starve it and it just stops…

It's more then i've done today, started watching Bones the season pack and well i'm addicted now and can't seem to move but on a good note i've drank 9 glasses on water while sitting here and no snacks!

It's a good way to start Bri that way you don't feel like you are depriving yourself from food you love, go portion control at first and then work in the healthier choices and you'll see you can eat so much more once you throw in all those low calorie vegies etc. The other day I could barely walk I was so full and all I…

I will give it a few days for those on my page who may want to come, if you know anyone who could benefit from a small group invite them as it may help a few to stay more motivated when they see posts that are easy to find and can ask any questions along the way. I think smaller is better then too big as it makes it too…

I was looking for a like button as well but guess that's not going to be found any time soon. I am going to keep the group fairly small so we can keep up with each other, any recommendations on how many people it should be kept at?

Thanks ladies, lazy sunday here as well as it's freaking raining yet again. I just got ready to go run errands with my daughter only to see it is pouring outside so we aren't going to go now, I don't feel like getting wet. Hopefully it stops soon and we can go then. Erin I have started reading labels etc as well, hubby…

It's not easy avoiding those sweets, we usually have someone in the office bringing in a treat or some sort or someone off to go get some treats and coffees. I am thankful my office is out of the way so I stay back there if I can and avoid it. I do data entry so I have mountains of paperwork waiting for me every day so I…

Glad to see you are better! Yeah sometimes our body feel like they need to adjust!

I don't want to open mine till I learn a better way of eating once I know i'm well on track i'll start opening it to the public. But just keeping track and entering everything I eat and drink does hold me accountable so it's a step in the right direction for me! I do like checking out diaries as it gives me ideas as to…

You have to consume at least 1000 calories or it tells you that you are going to be unhealthy as you are not eating enough and it won't post it as done on your page. It will post all your food eaten to your diary but that's it.

Thanks for posting these, great idea for all of us to check them out!

There is the occasional day that happens to me and I just don't get to post it, it still counts as you logging in but you won't get to post saying you finished it for the day, no big deal in the long run. Hope you are feeling much better today!
