LOL. I wish I was that clever. No, it's literally a large ball that is meant to be sat on (to work your core), or use for things like sit-ups. It feels like a rubber material and you blow it up with air using a pump. Weight went UP 1.2 pounds over night despite definitely being in a calorie deficit (I do weigh my food).…

I am SOOOooo hoping to get under 250 pounds tomorrow. The scale has read exactly 250 a time or two, and then goes back up. 250 pounds is the max weight for an exercise ball I have and am eager to use it. Goals for Sunday: #1 8,000 steps #2 less than 1,500 calories #3 8 glasses of water #4 do atleast 10 minutes of strength…

Goals for Friday #1 get a minimum of 8,000 steps in (I struggle with this! The only reason I've been getting more than 4,000 steps/day has been because of this thread) #2 do something productive after work instead of watching TV the whole evening #3 keep calories intake to no more than 1,400 I think I'll just keep it to…

@MissMonicaC4 good goals!

@MLS1582 , @tbolashana , and @MissMonicaC4 how did you do with your goals? I missed #2 (just couldn't drag myself out of bed), and #5 (ate just over 1,400. Darn late night popcorn). I succeeded with #1, 3 and 4 though!

Update on Monday's goals: Hit all goals but one! I ate less than 1,500 calories (but did go over the goal of 1,400). I got home from my normal 8 hour shift this evening and only has 1,200 steps, so I walked around the house over and over so I could meet all my other goals. Thanks for the motivation! :+1:

I am 46 pounds down, with 71 more to loose still. It's been super easy to eat healthy/loose weight these past 4 months until just lately. Maybe making daily goals is what can help pull me out of this slump My Monday goals: -8,000 steps (I usually get 5,000-6,000 in) -drink 8 glasses of water -eat less than 1,400 calories…

-Getting below 250 (hit 250 the other day, and then struggled with eating bad so haven't gotten below it yet) -Fitting into some pink dress slacks I got on clearance (they are a stretchy material, so I can get them on, but definitely are too tight to wear to work)
-
To get under 250 pounds. I hit 250.6 yesterday and then sabotaged it by eating above goal yesterday and today.
-
I had no dress pants to wear to church today (all of them were either dirty and couldn't be washed until tomorrow because my husband majorly bleached our water system, were too big, too little, or I just bought them and they desperately need hemming first). As I'm digging around in my closet I decided to try on a pair of…

At our work meeting today they kept passing around the large bowl of chocolates/Reeses Peanut Butter cups. I wasn't even tempted to have one. Then one of my female coworkers who had eaten 5+ pieces of the chocolates during the meeting asked me for weightloss advice after we were done
-
I feel like I don't need motivation to get to my goal weigh/eat healthy, but I might need motivation to stay there at my goal weight once I'm there, so I'm not really rewarding myself on the way down. I LOVE how I'm feeling and all the clothes in my closet I'm already able to wear. Once I get to maintenance I plan on…
