I hear you on the busy at work.. I have been so busy I have been missing my people here! That is why I decided to check in here first before I even start working. :bigsmile: I don't notice more hunger from not drinking enough water, but I do get horrible guilt about it. I find it really easy to chug a liter so as soon as I…

Sooo busy. Non stop at my house. I havent even been to bed yet and its 420. Girls night last night...so much fun dancing,.laughing...being girls. I need to catch up on threads after some shut eye.

1 pt for each I believe.

I twerked. Hahaha. It was not planned. Im not sure if I can really count it. I have heard of it but I didnt know exactly what it was until tonight and I was out of breath and I know I am.going to be sore from trying. Definitely sore from laughing so hard. The next two exercises are going to be much more serioud attempts, I…

The coolest thing about going to this class is it has opened up all sorts of doors for me. Broken down a wall or barrier of sorts. I now am dying to go to Zumba, I have a lady sending me info on Piyo classes. I want to go to something every night! My biggest challenge is convincing my husband to let me. I may have just…

Patrick! You are an inspiration, man! Carly - I totally missed your medical issues so I am a little lost, but I did see your BP readings and they that aren't bad at all. A little high, but nothing too dire. Especially the bottom one, that is actually good and that is the one they say is important. Try not to freak out! Def…

I treed! I downward dogged, I planked! I did it all! The only thing I wasnt able to do was a fulm on push up, but it was great! I felt the burn!

You can add me. ???? I still have a ways to go but have done it all just by tracking what I eat here.

I don't think people are saying my Parents made me fat, the bullies made me fat, the Priest that touched me in bad places made me fat, I think a better way of stating this is saying, I turned to food as a coping mechanism and got FAT. Get your head fixed first, develop some healthy coping mechanisms that teach you how to…

Talking with others in my group who are/were at a similar starting point as me, I would say a majority of us are/were effed up in the head either from psychological, physical or emotional abuse or a chemical imbalance of some sort or we did it to ourselves after years of "dieting" that back fired. :drinker: Hello 200lb…

I am kind of excited for the new exercise challenge this weekend. I haven't even looked yet but that is going to be part of the fun. Considering I am somewhat of an exercise virigin it shouldn't be too difficult. Yoga tonight. Now THIS I am nervous about. The one and only time I tried it was a Bob Harper DVD in my living…

Jusr got back from another hour long swim. Woo woo. I dont generally eat exercise cals back but like others have said, if I happenbto go over on an exercise day, I dont beat myself up over it because I know they are there. I also dont count on the MFP calculations either tho. My doctor asked me to eat 1/2 back but I dont…

Workin' workin' workin'... I am hoping to get more swimming in tonight. I really don't like the community pool in the evenings because the water is hot and it is crowded but I will take what I can get. I am about to guzzle 1 Liter of water so I can reward myself with a Diet Coke. Am I the only one who does this? I know…

I know right!? That WAS my plan and then I couldn't help myself. I must like the abuse? Not getting back on until Friday for sure!

False alarm. Just got on the scale with all my clothes on and dow 3 lbs from the plus 10. Sorry for the panic. Must remember not to panic but still swim my hiney off! Felt great! Kiddo was super happy too!

I finally had a 3 pt day. Yahoo! I had to, I jumped on the scale knowing its the devil during TOM but I was shocked to see a 10lb GAIN. I needed to swim. I don't know if a 1 hour swim in the shade is going to help much but it can't hurt. Only time can make that dreaded monthly bloat go away. It didn't help that I drank on…

Omg...just watched the video. Almost peed my pants. Hahahahaha. ????????????????

I haven't watched the video but just from Diana's description I so want to now and I also want to throw in extra credit points for whoever videos themselves doing these new exercises! Hahahahaa.

Interesting! I am actually trying something new this Thursday! I am going to YOGA!!! I am really excited and nervous at the same time. My girlfriends and I signed up for an hour long class. I emailed the instructor and warned her we are coming. :laugh: :huh:

I came here for motivation. I want the point dammit! Its really hot and the pool is calling.... I have several excuses stopping me #1 is my 3 yr old because she only had 6 hrs sleep last night...but shoot, I cant really break her...can I?

Hello! For thosw that dont know, I am Heather. I currently work for the great state of Texas, protecting the unprotected, thats our motto. I work for the Dept of Family & Protective Services but I work in IT Managment. I have been in IT for about 20 years now although I have a BA in Criminal Justice and Forensics. I just…

Welcome Zac! Nancy, you are all set! You are tab #5 at the bottom. A pretty teal color. :bigsmile: You just need to click on your name at the bottom where you see all the names, that is your own special sheet.

Nancy, we will get you on there. One thing that can happeb with a shared spreadsheet is two or more people can be editing at once. That might have been what was going on. As soon as I get back to my desk I will get you a sheet.

Well I am doing good today then. I already ate breakfast and snack. Thinking about heading out for a super light lunch to keep fueled. Its so hot and I have such cramps, I just want to curl up in A/C but I like the idea of stayong fueled.

No wonder Norah is always running! Shes a little skinny minnie now! I cannot even imagine being in the 1's. Woo woo. Going to get there tho. Someday someway somehow!

That sounds like pure Heaven. Seriously, a lake view, working on Art. That does pretty much sound like you are living the life! Hunger pains...goooooood question. I only get brain pains. As in my brain singles me saying OMG, I want food and I want it NOW. Othwrwise, my tummy talks to me sometimes when it growls, but I have…

Yes! Diana is the offical winner winner and I wouldnt discount it at all! Losting almost 18lbs in a month is awesome! She deserves it. I know she worked extremely hard because I see her swims on my news feed. ???? All together we lost almost 60lbs. I have to double check.

Welcome Sarah!

Welcome to the new faces! I am so excited to see new people decide to join us on our journey. I think we have some great conversations and are definitely here to support one another when needed. So many of us have similar historys of the whys and hows we got here and the struggles of living in a body that doesnt want to…

I accidently posted today's on tomorrows. Doh! Foods 1 Water 1 Exercise 0 Total = 2 Hey...I know we started today but I invited my Mother to join. I havent heard back yet, but she is on mfp and has been tracking and doing well for a cpuple of months. I would love for her to join this challenge.
