Let's talk about our challenge. My mother bought an Ab Circle Pro (the thing that you put your knees on and swing back and forth...it's on TV all the time). Well, it works and hurts. They recommend that you do it for 3 minutes everyday...okay 3 minutes no big deal. Yep by about 2 1/2 minutes I can feel the burn and I push…

Marla, I absolutley love reading your posts. You always make me laugh! My baby is now almost two and this mother thing your talking about I never thought would happen to me...yep...it did and I hate it! I'm looking forward to the next kid and the "issue" getting worse! Oh well it is worth it...he's such a good boy! I think…

Ladies...you are making me feel better! It sounded like everyone did good without the scale and the spreadsheet didn't look so good...it's because we forgot....next week we'll be on there. Funny it is like we have immunity this week and we are staying the same...next week we'll have a big weight loss! Just kidding! Here's…

Hey everyone! I definately have some weight to loose. I have lost 18 so far and I'm really proud of that. I honestly have no idea how much I need to loose but I would like to be under 200 then start focusing on a real number/goal. I'd love to join your group too! Here's to a healthy life...Sara

Oh crud... I was to late to get my weight in. Next week I'll be more prompt. I had a 3.6 pound loss which I'm pumped about. I gaineda pound last week so maybe that wavjust water weight or something. Everyone looks great... Nice job this week. Here's to getting healthy!

OMG...no scale! WTH! This is going to be really hard for me. My husband is going to be thrilled. I'm going to give it to him to hide it so I'm not tempted to use it. I can hardly control myself. As it is I try hard to weigh only once per day and that is a far stretch sometimes...My week was hard. I couldn't seem to loose…

My husband takes it and he gets major diahrea from it...so don't take to much to soon

Good Morning! I love the new challenge...I am giving up chocolate for a whole week! That is going to be very hard for me because I always seem to be sneaking a few M & M's or something like that. No more (at least for a week...maybe it will carry longer). So, I'm on board with that. I also wanted to tell everyone about a…

Time...I feel like I am way to busy all the time to do it. That is the biggest challenge for me...I am dedicated to making the time for it! That's the only way...dedication!

Hey Black Team! Hope everyone is doing well. I'm trying with my weight loss and I seem to be loosing the weight but I struggle with eating good foods all the time. I'm trying to snack more often because I believe that is a key to success. Anyway, my husband & I both had the flu and I have never seen so much vomit in my…

Hey fellow black teamers! Ihope everyone is doing well. My little boy is pretty sick right now. He had a temp of 104.8 yesterday we couldn't get it down... Went to the doc and he has an ear infection. So all is good... Right now I'm soaking went because his fever just broke...he sweat all over me... Now he got his second…

I love the challenge. I have to say...just what I needed! Sara

Wow...what a work out! Yesterday I couldn't get into it and but suffered through it...today was totally different. I was running on that eliptical...hard...sweat pouring! Feels great. I messed up on the sweets and ate not one but 4 cookies today...I was on auto-pilot. I worked out hard to make up for it and it feels good.…

I really excited...thanks for all the hard work you put into this...what a great start to a new year. My weight is 248.6. Here we go! Sara

Did you stay within your nutritional goals? Yes Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Yes What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? 30 minutes on the Elliptical...oh man I was sweating! What would I have done differently? Maybe took a little walk on my lunch break...but I'm doing that today! What is today's personal…

OMG....I eat it all the time not really looking at it either. Just this morning I was entering it on my food journal and I realized how much sodium is in that. Almost everyday I am over my sodium (because everything is so processed). The special K was one of the culprits with 330 grams of sodium from 1.5 cups of special k.…

Okay...I just made my food journal public. That is a really big step for me because I would NEVER want people to see everything that I eat in a day but it is time for change. I like to look at other people's diaries because I get some really great ideas to steal! I just finished 30 minutes on my eliptical machine. This is…

Yes, I have that problem ALL THE TIME! So frustrating! I can't say that I'm an expert at it but here's what I do. 1. Use a small dinner/salad plate 2. Fill it up 1/2 way with veggies, 1/4 w/ meat, 1/4 w/ starch 3. Leave something left on your plate. 4. Eat sugar free pudding or jello or something like that for dessert. I…

Good luck! Congrats on getting engaged! Something to look forward to and a great reason to get healthy and loose some weight! Good luck with your New Year... I know mine is going to be great!

Here's my daily check in... Did you stay within your nutritional goals? Yes Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? I haven't made a personal goal...maybe I should think about that! What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Yes, I worked out on my eliptical machine. My day started off as an eating disaster then I…

I'm in. I've been dealing with the weight struggle my whole life. I work hard professionally and I have never been able to make time for myself. Something always comes before me. My goal for 2010 is to make time for me to get healthy...and I don't think that is being selfish anymore. I used to feel selfish about this sort…

Me too! I've been on fitnesspal in the past but this is a new time for me. I'm excited to take the long journey to success this time I try to loose weight. Everytime I make a new year's resolution and it ends after about a month. This time, my goal is one year! I can do it in a year! Nice to meet you.

I'd like to be your friend. How do I "friend" you...I'm still working on this...not quite as easy as facebook!
-
Wow...good for you! My goal is 30 pouds...can't wait until I'm in your shoes!
-
That's a tough one...good for you by the way for being so strong. I love to drink and I'm really good at it! If you have the power not to drink and can still have fun then don't. If you can control yourself then have a couple. My problem is always the eating once I've had to many...I let my food guard down and eat like…
