@cpanus and @zumbaforever Thanks for checking on me! I’m a zombie at the moment. I woke up yesterday morning at 4:30am for my normal morning workout routine, and I haven’t been to sleep yet. Yes you read that right.. I said YESTERDAY morning. Lol. I had a work project with a deadline and I worked on it straight through the…

Thanks! Going well so far! No gym for me in the morning though because I have to pull an all-nighter to finish some work projects. I’m not sure how I’ll function at the office tomorrow with no sleep tonight, but unfortunately it can’t be avoided this time. By the way.. I’m 40... so close to the same age! My dad named me…

Kathy, that sounds like lots of fun. Nice job!

I concur about the coffee. I probably shouldn't, but I have my coffee before heading out to exercise because... as you said... nothing happens before coffee. :smile:

Thanks, Chris. I completely forgot it was Valentine's Day tomorrow. So... good question! I guess I should get to thinking about that. LOL ~Donna

Thanks, @PAV8888 I just checked out weightgrapher.com and according to the trend chart I was on a slightly downward trend until Feb 4th and it has been a straight line ever since. I didn't see any noticeable upward gains around the same point in my previous cycle, but then again I was just starting over on eating…

@donna25trinity Same with my hubby.. but fortunately he goes right back to sleep. :smile: I’ve been doing well with my workouts thus far. I started going to the gym on Feb 6th. Prior to that I was just getting up and walking a mile before work and/or doing some aerobic workout in my living room. Now I’m getting a mile walk…

Yay! It is officially the weekend! I've been longing for it all week. :smile: Last week's successes: I logged everything I consumed.

@time4changexx I sent you a friend request. Let’s do this!

Hi @aprillperry3892 , I tried to add you as a friend but it keeps telling me your username is not found for some reason. If you’re still around feel free to add me. :smile:

@One9eightfour I sent you a friend request. Let’s help keep each other motivated. I have 69.8 more lbs to go to reach my goal.

@watsjo02 Welcome! I think we’ve all been there at some point! Logging everything you consume is a great way to help hold yourself accountable. I’m personally working on increasing my water intake and exercising more. I’m happy to be fitness pals.

Boooooo Yuck! Lol

@joone_9 This is AWESOME! This gives me hope! When you have such a big number to lose it can be daunting and scary. Breaking it down into smaller milestone goals helps get you through the tasks day by day. Thanks for posting.
