  • Hmmm...now I really have to think of a new habit. I'm going to steal SMLISLEY's because it is something I need to start doing too. Clean/organize something around the apartment for 20 minutes 3 times a week.
  • 209.4....Ugh...Stupid Aunt Flo, at least that is what I'm hoping this is and that it will disappear next week. That is a gain of 1.9 pounds.

  • Hi All! My name in Melissa and I am 28 years old. This is my 3rd challenge of Sherri's. The first one was a huge success and so was the second one until I got sick or was injured, can't remember which. Since then things have been pretty down hill for me fitness wise and I know I need to kick it into gear again. I am…
  • Starting weight 207.5. Only down from here.
  • Checking in. Didn't see a notification in the mobile app. Sorry.
  • You move onto the next cycle, introduce the foods that are introduced in that cycle, or just simply keep up with the same habits you learned in the first cycle but add in moderation all the other foods that you normally eat. To me this is more about shifting my mindset back to eating my veggies and some fruit and avoiding…
  • I started Monday as well. Been doing better than the last time I attempted this. Decided not to use his meal plan, but just focus on the foods I can eat and be creative with it.
  • I'm on day 4 and decided to do it only because I need to get my healthy eating habits back on track and see this as a good way to start. Plus, this is the best way for me to lose weight. I worked hard all of last year and lost 25 pounds. That isn't a lot in a year time frame and made me basically give up at the beginning…
  • Definitely want to join again.
  • I feel so right there with you. Lost weight last year and was hyper focused on the whole process. After a set back at the beginning of this year I haven't been able to hold onto that old motivation. Realized this morning that I don't feel adequate and am in a never ending cycle. I will definitely be reading through this…
  • Just sent a friend request. I agree with all of the original post. ETA: If anyone else would like an accountability partner with the same views send me a friend request.
  • I feel like it is a constant for me. I'm constantly reminding myself that I need to get up and move and eat healthier. Its hard to ignore all those cravings though and sometimes I just let myself cave into them.
  • Winning! (Was the first thing that came to mind) I would fall on my face attempting this.
  • This is just me being stupid and judgmental, but there is an older couple that comes into our apartment gym and us the treadmill and elliptical at very low resistance and speed, complain that the elliptical ramp is preset at 10, and then proceed to have whole conversations with each other while "working out" Yes I know…
  • I used it on my arm when I gave myself a repetitive movement injury. I did feel better after using it. Like others have said, I don't know if I would use it in place of a knee brace, but it fit my purposes just fine.
  • Nope, just the losses. My weight bounces around too much and I would get really depressed quickly if I logged it here everyday. I do have an app that I use to keep track of my weight, but even that I avoid for certain periods because the rate of my loss is so depressingly slow I don't necessarily want a record of it.
  • $1 for every day you go without. HR puts a Halloween candy bucket right by my desk and that is how I got through last October and plan to get through this October too.
  • Sounds delish and I have the ingredients to make this. Yum!
  • I did the last challenge and enjoyed the team atmosphere. Sheri provided new ways to push myself every week and I picked up some good habits along the way.
  • I agree with pretty darn amazing! Not weird at all, just awe inspiring.
  • There is good and bad in everything. When I was diagnosed with cancer as a teenager the doctors did state that it was a good thing I was overweight so I had weight to lose during the illness. If I didn't have the extra weight to lose the whole 2 years of chemo would have been more difficult. I look at it this way, if your…
  • I added salsa the other day and it was actually really good.
  • Wow! Amazing words! If that isn't the push OP needs, I don't know what will be. To the OP, the key is is to focus on the changes you are making, not the results you are seeing. If the changes you are making are healthy then you need to keep up with them. Eventually you will see/feel results. You can do this!
