  • I am up early for my Friday off, I've dropped off my car at the shop for some routine work and waiting for a friend to pick ME up for some pick up soccer. I'll be home in time to meet the AC repair guy. It's Friday cheat day, but I want to be good so I see some results on Sunday. I feel different, but the weight is not…
  • Thursdays are my rest days. Sleeping an extra hour 1/2 was gorgeous this AM and I feel energized rather than tired like I've been the last couple days. My challenge today will be to eat well and stay under my cal goal. This will be extra challenging because I had a big burn yesterday and my appetite always kicks in the day…
  • I did my ellipticle/ incline treadmill workout this AM for my commitment. So my challenge is going to be no wine or chocolate tonight (and no substitutes). That is is big for me!!
  • Now THAT is inspiration!! Way to go!!!
  • Today's commitment is weight workout before work and soccer skills after. Even though I was really tired and in the middle of a dream when the alarm off this AM, I just put one foot in front of the other and got my butt to the gym this AM. I forgot my HRM and my shuffle for the PM, but I will not be thwarted! Have a great…
  • Sorry this is late. The weight is from Sunday but between being busy and forgetful it just didn't get it on this thread yesterday. 148 = 1 lb lost. I am motivated by my gain from Friday to Sunday to be better throughout the weekend! I started to take measurements, but I am honestly so bad at it. I couldn't remember where,…
  • Happy Saturday 20/75ers!! Today I will be going to my team soccer practice - always a good time and workout. Other than that I want to eat well, especially at dinner which can be hard because we like to go out on Saturdays. I also want to get to the grocery store to stock up on good food and makings for dinner tomorrow.…
  • My worry is that I weigh myself through the week and I know from experience that I am likely to gain from where I am now since I am not as strict on the weekends as I am during the week. I guess that's motivation to be better! Overall, I'm looking forward to what progress I can document!
  • Got my weight workout done this AM (470 cals toasted). Fridays are date night with my hubby and is cheat time for me. But I plan to be relatively good with my choices and not have a drink at the restaurant.
  • Happy Birthday!! Have a great day and enjoy yourself!
  • Last night I thought I'd be getting up to go to the gym - and I was in bed at 9:35 ! so I really thought it was going to happen, but my body was really tired, so I've decided to make Thursdays my rest days. That means I need to commit to eating very well today to stay under my calorie goal. I will make that happen!
  • Good eve all. I've had a very busy day and this has been my first chance to get on the group. But the good news is that I have met my goal of cardio in the AM - elliptical and incline treadmill - and my Wed soccer in the eve. I managed to stick to the food I brought in to work and avoid all the treats folks brought in for…
  • It's been great reading about everyone's daily goals and your paths forward! It is really inspiring and getting me focused! Thanks all!! My workout goal today was to get a weight workout in this morning. Check :-) I managed to bring my lunch & snacks again to work with me and just finished a really satisfying salad. I…
  • Plateaus suck!! But consider your body was going through quite a bit dealing with the flu. It may just need a bit more time to recover. A few thoughts based on my experience and things I've read: First, are you getting enough quality sleep? I've read that getting the sleep you need helps you to lose weight. Second, if you…
  • Hi all! Another 20/75er here from the LBC in SoCal. BTW my profile pick is a zombie head mug that is working some strong voodoo the help me get my mojo back! You all have been helping more, so I'll have to switch it up again soon :-)
  • Get as much rest as possible!! That is the best thing you can do for your health and well being right now!! Hope you feel better soon!
  • Bringing my lunch and good snacks to work is key for me. Salads with protein (nuts/ feta/ chicken) fill me up. When I get that 2:00 chocolate craze my new favorite recipe is this: Grab a large-ish mug. Add about 2 tsp of Ghiradelli dark choc cocoa mix. Add just enough hot water to make a thick syrup. Add 1/4 to 1/3 cup…
  • So happy to have met my commitment to meet Soccer_Chick at the gym at 5 this AM and got in about 40 minutes on the elliptical. For the rest if the day: soccer skills practice right after work. Then I want to see about getting new batteries for my HRM (before it dies - ack!!) and figure out a weight workout for tomorrow.…
  • Sunday is my full-field, 90 min soccer day, so a good burn is coming my way. But I plan on not using soccer as an excuse to eat whatever I want during the day. I plan on enjoying myself in moderation at our post-game "cool down". One drink and limited food. I'm going bring a protein bar as a better option to feed my…
  • OK!! Getting to it! I was surprised by my weight this AM. Thought I'd be another 2-3, the way I've been feeling lately. I've tried taking measurements with Myotape before and always felt there was a lot of variability in how I was doing it, but here it is. Let's do this y'all!!! Height: 5' 5" Weight: 149.0 lbs Bust: 35.5"…
