IM IN TOO!! had a baby 12 weeks ago and need to jump start losing this weight! im hoping for 10 pounds by summer too!! i need some motivation though too! im starting today as well!

stay positive! i feel the same way this time of night...mostly i think i get bored! go something to distract yourself...i know this might sound stupid- sometimes all i need to do is take a shower. it distracts me and takes up time and also relaxes me! stick to it! you deserve it! :)

hello and welcome! i love this site! i am a "return" user....i was on here a year ago and then had a baby a few months ago...so now i am back! its a great motivator! good luck! YOU CAN DO IT!

HI Welcome! you will reach your goal- one day at a time! Good luck! i would also like to connect with others to stay focused. you seem like you have a positive outlook right now....keep that and use it! i am struggling a lot right now and feeling so down....im hoping that connecting with people on here will help! good luck…

Good for you! thats great! keep going....you can do it! :smile:

Welcome back to you! i just came back too! i was here about a year ago and then had a baby...he is 2.5 months old now and im ready to get losing again! i too LOVED this site before!

good for you! good luck to you! i was on this site last year at this time and took a break- while i was pregnant- now im back! i loved this site before and it really helped me!

Hello! Welcome! i was on this site about a year ago and then had my first baby (so i cant even imagine having 7 kids in the house at one time!) so now im back on here! it sounds like you are such a great person....willing to take care of everyone else's needs... but i guess its time to focus on yourself a little (i bet…

i seem to keep going over in my protein. i really dont feel like i eat too much meat. is this really bad to go over-sometimes I'm over by 50!

Hello! I am a teacher and never have time to eat during the day. I want to be able to grab a QUICK snack to keep my metabolism up. Any ideas for some healthy, simple, things i can eat throughout the day? Im not a huge fan of peanuts/cashews. thanks! :flowerforyou:

i did lose an inch at my chest, waist, and hips...so i dont know whats going on. im just frustrated and bummed and im TRYING so hard NOT to lose my motivation to keep making better choices...especially with the weekend (and Superbowl) coming up now....:explode:

im so frustrated! i bet you are too! i just dont get it! argh! great way to start the day! my kids at school better be good! haha!

WHAT HAPPENED? i know its only 1 pound but i was expecting it to be 1 pound in the OTHER direction! GREAT! yuck!

Does anyone else weigh a pound or two more RIGHT after working out? i weighed myself at the gym today- but forgot to right when i got there and did it after an hour of working out- 40 on the elliptical and 20 weight lifting. and the number went up! any ideas???

just found out my school is closed today! i love snow days more than the kids do!!!!

Im in! I was actually just about to jump on the treadmill and i already was at the gym earlier on the elliptical! Good Challenge!

That means 53 days until my birthday! Thanks for the countdown! :wink:

Thanks for that info! it happened again to me thursday and i was starting to worry!

All of a sudden it seems as though my head is full of of "getting pregnant ideas!" i still have weight that i want to lose- so im thinking its better to lose my extra weight first before moving ahead with the pregnancy idea...is this best? people around me tell me that there is "no perfect time" so im pretty overwhelmed…

welcome! i love this site! it has been a great help so far! good luck!

in a second! i just LOVE all different foods to much and i HATE the guilt!

happens to me to- especially when im on the elliptical! glad to hear im not the only one!

Enjoy it!!!!:smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile:

Does anyone else gain a pound or 2 during "their week" of the month? i was so discouraged when i weighed myself yesterday- but maybe it was from that??!! any thoughts?

yes i do feel like this too! you just put my thoughts into the right words! it stresses me out to think about it all too much...but i feel so guilty when i dont! ahhhhh!

this is a great site! i love it here! you can do it! Good Luck!!

thanks everyone for the positive words....still feeling bad...but im trying tog et over it...still not into everything...but tomorrow is another day and hopefully things will pick up again! I HOPE!!

so i definitely got off track yesterday! i am horrible! I overate and overdrank ALL day! yikes! now i feel gross and unmotivated to keep going....yuck

yes tomorrow is a new day! i am hoping to wake up and be out of this funk i am in! I LOVE that you drove out for your soda! it made me giggle...i would soooooo do something like that!

i am feeling the same way! we need to get over that....SOME HOW!!
