Meatloaf meatballs?!?!?! That sounds amazing! Welcome WinnieDePoux! I think your goal sounds more than reasonable and very conservative!

How is everyone doing so far this week?

Great idea Alana! I will post a new challenge on Monday and see if we can get this wagon back on the road!

Hi Ladies! It's good to see some new faces! While my dedication to my own journey has been wobbly for a while I can say when I am at my best is when I am following some sort of plan. I will say for meal planning I figure out what I will eat including snacks for the next week and get all the groceries that match up with the…

Yay! Candy! So glad you made it! Everyone, Candy is my cousin so be nice!

Yay Alana we've missed you! :happy:

375 min of Cardio 6 days in the green 8 cups of water daily 2 servings of fruits and vegetables It was a good week! I was logging somewhere else and I will have to figure out how to get synced up so my log shows up on here too!

I've really been giving some thought about what I want to try and accomplish this beautiful month of June! I have decided that I want to lose 10 pounds this month and I commit daily to 30 minutes of intentional exercise! This is going to be great ladies! Anyone else who wants to join in on the June Commit to be Fit…

Nice work Deanna! You rock sister!

Great job Deanna! :smile:

Glad to see everyone coming back to life. I have had two hard weeks at school and let it get the best of me because of work and final exams, papers etc. I am excited for this upcoming week because I am done with school! Yay! WE CAN DO THIS!! :smile:

I struggle as well. This is one of the reasons I have a hard time with moderation. When the house is full of healthy choices and there isn't any bad choices I can stick to it no problem. The moment I bring something salty or sweet to "treat myself in moderation" I eventually end up wiping out on whatever it was that was.…

Welcome! Jump right in! :)

My husband and I went away for the weekend for a much needed get away from everything time alone mini-trip. We went to the woods and went hiking and climbing in this old cave. It was really cool. When I say climbing I don't mean anything too impressive just walking up a rocky terrain. It was really nice! Didn't even try to…

Welcome Suzy! Great job losing 18pounds! If you want to join in just follow along and report back with your results on Monday! Looking forward to getting to know you better!

^^^ Welcome! Glad you are here. You just follow the instructions above and report back by Monday morning and that's it! Looking forward to getting to know you!

Multi-vitamin, fish oil, and folic acid! :smile:

Wow good job everyone! I am a dope I forgot about the bonus this week but did get everything else done!

I've read it both ways but the most consistent information is to at least get your 8glasses. I have only gone 2 or 3 cups over that. Some people drink their weight in ounces and drink 15 cups a day but most places say that kind of thing is overboard. I really don't think you can hurt anything drinking a lot of water except…

285 minutes of cardio-- yes! Waaahooooo! :smile: 5 days in the green-- yes! 8 cups of water 5 days -- yes! 2 servings of fruits and vegetables 5 days -- yes! Sumo Squats -- yes! New Conversation -- yes!

Ooh gotcha! I have also been known to send things to my husband's office or call a friend and say heeeey girl can I drop by? And bring some treats with me for her family. I actually gave a homeless man a few cookies that would have only ended up on my hips. Sounds like a lot of trouble but I hate wasting food.

I don't have little ones so I never have to buy the candy! If it is in the house I would definitely have a hard time resisting! When I make too much of something or want to get rid of cookies etc I take it in to my office....could you get rid of it in one shot by taking it somewhere?

^^^^^ LOVE it Alana! So many of us don't want to ever feel hungry or "deprived" when the reality is once in a while it will happen and it's ok!

One of the best pieces of advice that I have received and haven't always followed is to look at the big picture. Not all the weight you need to lose-- but if you "mess up" don't let it wipe you out. Look at the big picture... if you've made more good choices than bad you are headed in the right direction. Don't let this be…

Hi! We're all still here! I got the board to wake up a little with a question for the group! Keep up the good work!

^^^ I LOVE This!!! Yes we can always do more when we work as a team. It is so crazy how you can be overwhelmed by something and then just adding one other person helps it become manageable. Thanks for sharing!

^^^^ Yay! Welcome back! :smile:

200 minutes of Cardio -- not quite! 5 days in the green -- Check! 8 glasses of water 5 days -- Check! 2 servings of fruits and veggies -- double check! Try something new? Check tried a pilates dvd um... I don't bend that way yet but gave it a shot any ways.

Welcome to the group! We try and encourage each other in here we do weekly challenges and cheer each other on in our regular news feed. I am Melissa I am married and work as a real estate agent. I have a lot of weight to lose and have had a couple set backs but I have rededicated and am back to making some progress. Work…
