Ah, my first confession. :::clearing throat::: okay, I ate peanut butter out of the jar last night. About 1/2 cup or more. At least it was low fat. :embarassed:

By the way, if you are really hungry, you need to eat a healthy snack during work. It will keep you going, and actually help you to lose.

Good for you! You have a plan and that is the first step in accomplishing our goals. I started the same way - baby steps. I only wanted to lose 40 pounds, and tone up. I have lost 22 since the beginning of the year, and completely changed my diet. This site has really helped me to keep going while I lost the last 10…

I think you did exactly the right thing. You have already planned your meals/cals for the day to include a treat for your birthday. If she's really your friend, she will encourage you to get healthy and lose the weight. You could do something together that does not include food - shopping, or getting a mani/pedi together?

Week Two Day One: 110 Day Two: 100 Day Three: 110

Congratulations!! That's why I never get rid of jeans I like - I must have 20 pair, ranging in size from 6 to 14!!

Week Two /Day Two total: 100

Hi all - I am new to this topic also, and well over 50... I turned 60 in February. Will write more tonight from home!

What does \m/ mean?? Just curious...

All these ideas are amazing! We need to put out a cookbook!! Is there any way for me to print out this whole thread?

Good for you! :drinker:

Well, I dance with my dog around the house. She doesn't like it when I carry her - she wants to get her own groove on!

Wow - great post, Lparauit!!

Week One Day 1 total: 70 Day 2 total: 81 Day 3 total: 93 While I was down there :laugh: I did some yoga stretches, some leg lifts & kicks, and even few feeble pushups!

Another Texan in Fort Worth...

I close my office door, eat my lunch, then either lean back in my chair with my eyes closed, or stretch out on the floor and... well, stretch! During the day, I am frequently jogging up and down the 30 steps outside my office to stretch my legs and relieve stress.

I met my May goal this morning! yay, me!! May 1st: 164.5 May 27: 159.5

I also picked a weight from the past where I was happy with myself. I have never exercised before (as an adult) and I'm really starting to like it! I have a lot of toning to do, so think I might try to go 20 lower than what my goal is now. However, I don't want to go too low, as I am 60 yrs old and don't want a lot of…

Okay, what happened? Did I do it on the wrong day? Am I the only one who started the challenge??

Week One/Day One/Column Three 15 15 18 18 10 10 10 10 Max: 20 Time: 8 minutes Feeling: A little shaky, but very proud of myself!

I'm ready to go with Day One tonight after work - I'm excited!! Week One, Column 3

I'm still 1/2 pound shy of losing 5 this month... still have 6 days though!!

I meant situps! Duh!! Crunches, actually.

Ex Test: 40 pushups. But since I didn't keep good form, I'm only taking 30.

Okay, I'm in. I will do my test tonight.

Your profile shows you have lost 4 pounds, and you just joined this month. Four pounds is good!

As of this morning, I am only 1/2 pound from my end of May goal!! Yay, me!!!:drinker:

I eat either Lean Cuisine or Healthy Choice for lunch 5 days a week. It's just easiest for me - and low cal too. My favorites are the Chicken Carbonara, Apple Cran Chicken & Roasted Honey Chicken. In the HC meals, I like Chicken Teriyaki, Pot Roast w/ red potatoes, Oven roasted chicken & Salsbury steak. The HC ones are…

For my mid-day slump, I take a walk around the building, jog back up the stairs, and then eat either a cup of yogurt (80 cals) or a piece of fruit. On those days that I can't get away to walk around, I do some stretches & jogging in place in the privacy of my office.
