I am in on this weeks challenge! I was told last week that I need to NOT excersize until I am cleared by my Dr. cuz when I do lunges and squats I get a "funny felling" and sometimes blurry vision - SO ANYWAY, instead of workouts I am walking and really cutting back on sodium, taking my water pills and drinking more water.…

I totally agree - making the scale move BACK to 150 is so amazing - CONGRATS!!!

My goal of walking at least 2 days last week - wasn't met - BUT I did start excersizing with my husband again - so I think I dont better than my goal This week - work everyday - drink more water, even if it is with the flavor add ins - and quit being so lazzy Starting Weight - 288 Week 14 goal: 286 (-2)

No. You should not eat your extra calories - this is how you are going to loosing weight. If you eat a normal amount of calories and then excersize them off that is a good thing - if you eat normal, excersize, and eat them back your body will not have the deficit that is required to loose. DO NOT eat your extra calories,…

(which is nothing) I will get out of my rut and join the fun i guess i need a swift kick in the booty to get started. i am…

Svey - Sorry I didn't mean to sound as if I would be pressured into doing anything - that isn't what I meant. What I meant was I know I am overweight and have been for awhile. I started a weightloss journey last year and in the first 3 months, I lost about 25lbs - well life got in the way and I let the excuses pile up next…

I am interested in this group. I have been reading for a few weeks but not posting. I hope to come back with all my info but first I have to admit it to myself before I can post it here. (How sad is it to be embarassed around a bunch of ladies who are dealing with the same stuff I am) I will get my stats together and be…

Melody - I agree! Making the family vacation a goal very well could be the motivation you need to get started and then to keep going! I actually sent KI and email one day asking if they had a weight limit - their response was ' due to differences in the size of people we recommend you 'try a seat' before waiting in line…

I too have been away from MFP for awhile and this too is my first post since being back. The thing that caught my attention most was you have experienced some of my most hidden fears! My children are 11 and 8 and I have NEVER taken them to Kings Island or any other amusement park because I know I am to big to fit. I weight…

Don't worry Jenn, together we can do this!! We need to be accountable for our actions. I know you can be a workoutaholic and I know you can do this! Just get back to your water and excersice whenever you can. YOU CAN DO IT!!!

Better late than never! I'd like to jump in here and become a part of this. I usually weigh in every two weeks but I can do every week I guess. Start weight is 268 as of 7/13. Goal is 170 by 7/13/2010!! Short term goal - 10lb loss by 8/13 Long / short term goal is 12% of my weight lost in 3 months = 12% down by Oct 13 I…

once again congratulations to you and to all your success!!! :flowerforyou: ?? for you - you have lost the same amount of weight that I plan to loose (by this time next year!!) but do you have any excess skin? expecially in you tummy area. I am concerned about this, I am afraid that after doing all this hard work I will…
-
there is no way I can do these now but I do have a question. I am aiming to loose 100 lbs by this time next year - will doing ab exercises keep me from having to get extra skin removed. I have heard and seen where folks have lost weight but they still look big cuz of flabby skin. I mean the last thing I want to do is loose…

Make a goal - a reasonable goal - nothing that is setting yourself up. Take it one day at a time. You aren't going to be perfect and you will probally stumble along the way, just pick yourself up and keep on going. Remember that everyone makes mistakes and I am encouraging you to stay the course!! You'll be better for it…

My adult Rottie/Lab used to carry around a 16lb bowling ball. He thought it was his toy, you couldn't keep him off it!! Funny stuff :laugh: wish I had a pic to share
-
I have a 6 month old Rottie... that's him in my pic... I though we were the only ones who had puppy problems, lol. He doesn't steal my weights he just like to get right up in my way. Like when I am doin lunges he'll slowly creep up and get in the way of myt steps or wait until I am doing a pushup and then he is right at my…

One thing that has helped my husband and I is the biggest loser cookbook. We go to super walmart and get a bunch of 100 or less calories snacks to have on hand. Along with fresh fruit. Eat every 3 hours to keep your metabolism up, even if you don't feel hungary, but don't eat 3 hours before bed. Drink lots of water!! Some…
