Sending you healing thoughts for your knee:flowerforyou: Good luck with your run tomorrow - you can do it!:drinker:

Lost 1 lb & I am really excited about it! Really tried to watch my portions this week & those end of day calories! Not as active as I could have been so will work on that for next week. NASCAR at Kansas speedway this weekend so will have lots of walking between parking lot & grandstand :wink: Good luck to all for a healthy…

Don't feel horrible - we have all been there & maybe we don't always follow thru with the things we mean to! That is great that you are so motivated to get up early & work out - bet that energized your whole day! I am so NOT a morning person! But have been able to walk during my lunches this week & got outside today for…

I love your words of encouragement! :love: It's amazing the power of a few words. Sometimes that's all it takes to turn things around. I think it's been 3 weeks since I last logged my food but I'm starting again tomorrow. THANK YOU so much for helping me. :flowerforyou:

No gain or loss, have really been bad about logging the past 2 weeks. Have made a promise to myself to start again tomorrow. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. :flowerforyou:

No gain, no loss. Plateaus suck:frown:

Some of us sound a little battered so I hope everyone heals quickly & can enjoy some beautiful spring weather:flowerforyou: I was really bad last week & didn't get any exercise so that is my focus this week: Cardio - at least 3 times this week! Log my foods everyday. Good luck everyone!

I'm sorry but your post made me giggle just a little :tongue: I so totally understand your frustration!! I am up .5 lbs this week - didn't do any exercise this week & just be glad no one suggested that I do something cause I probably would have bitten their head off:devil: You can probably tell I've been pretty grouchy…

167.2 no gain no loss. I won't complain too much although I did stay within my calories every day except 1 so thought I would lose something. :noway: Oh well, I'll keep plugging away. Have a great weekend everyone! :flowerforyou:

This time change has been really hard for me - didn't sleep well last night & have been really tired today:frown: Managed to do a short 20 min walk over my lunch which I was proud of but usually do at least 30 min. The weather here has been beautiful so I hope that will keep me motivated to walk. My goals this week: 1. get…

I posted on Week 9 weigh in by mistake! But wanted to share my accomplishment on losing 2.8 lbs this week - finally back on track! :bigsmile: Did pretty good on my weekly goals - only got 3/4 ab workouts in but made my other goals so I feel pretty good. Energy is up which is great! Reward was going out Friday night to…

LW : 170 CW: 167.2 :smile: My goals were : 4 days of cardio - walked 2 days, did Zumba 1 day & plan to do some cardio tomorrow - maybe hiking! 4 days of ab workout - done Tues & Thurs, going out tonight so no time but maybe again tomorrow - will work on this again next week. 2 days of strength workout - done Tues & Thurs…

My Goals: 1. Do cardio at least 3 times this week (so far have walked Mon & Tues) 2. Strength/toning twice (done Tues) 3. Ab workout 4 times (done Tues) 4. Log all my food everyday I have gotten really lazy past 2 weeks so need to get it in gear! Have a great week everyone!

170.0 Up a pound - again!:grumble: Have been better last few days about logging all my food so hopefully this week will show a loss! Getting frustrated with myself - need to focus on how important this is to me. My niece's husband (late 30s) had a mini stroke last week - due to being overweight & inactive - so I need to…

LW: 167.4 CW: 169 Haven't logged all week - computer problems & just no time. Plus my son's 7th birthday so have been baking for school party, daycare party & home party! Needless to say, too many temptations! Did cardio only 2 days this week. Need to get motivated & get back on track!

LW : 168.9 CW: 167.4 I have lost & gained the same 1.5 lbs for the past 3 weeks so hoping next week will be a loss! Stayed pretty close to my allowed calories each day but only did cardio 3 days & my toning/ab workout 1 day so definitely have room for improvement. Congrats to those who stuck to their goals this week!

LW: 167.2 CW: 168.9 yo-yo yo-yo Didn't do much cardio this week. Reservations for Sunday (Valentines Day) Brunch so will have to get a "wiggle" on & be extra good with my diet the rest of the week!:wink: Congrats to those who improved their fitness and/or lost this week!:drinker: You runners amaze me as that is something I…

Feeling pretty good lately - energy is up! My goals: Eat fish twice this week Drink 9 cups of water daily

LW: 169 CW: 167.2 :happy: I was pretty down after a gain last Friday, just tried to hold steady & really watch my food; also decided to eat more of my calories earned with exercise. Have slacked off my cardio so need to get back to that but very happy & surprised with the scale this morning!

Thanks so much for your kind words. It means so much to have support & know that there are others fighting the same battle. Thinking back over the week, I think I ate more carbs than usual so will cut back there. Also need to work on my water. Ready to do my 3rd ab workout for the week & also some Zumba today!:bigsmile:

Completely forgot to weight in yesterday so weighed in this morning with a 1.2 lb gain. Not the way to start my day :cry: On the verge of feeling really down today but the sun is beautiful so will try to change my attitude. Congrats to those who lost!

I've been pretty good about getting cardio in 4-5 times per week but have really dropped off my ab workout so goal this week is to do ab workout 3 times - first one was done today - :happy: Good luck to everyone & remember - we are all in this together!

Weighed in today at 167.8 down 1 lb from last week :) Being accountable & forcing myself to log everything everyday is really helpful for me. Struggled with a bad cold & energy was down but tried to eat healthy (lots of soup!) & drink lots. Energy now on an upswing so will try to get moving again! Happy weekend to everyone!

I have been fighting a nasty head cold since Sat which has zapped my energy so my goals for this week are to 1) get well & 2) start moving again! Today I did 20 min of Zumba & 30 min of strength training/abs so I feel great! Hoping to get out for a long walk tomorrow & hoping I didn't gain this week! Love hearing what…

Little late posting my weigh in but here it is: down 0.6 lbs from last week - not much but any moving down the scale is great! Hope you all had a great Friday!

My week is going well. My ME activities have included reading a favorite magazine, talking to a friend on the phone & de-cluttering part of my basement (for me clutter = stress so that has helped). Thanks so much for the positive comment!

This week is likely to be pretty stressful for me at work so I want to focus on spending some time on myself each day - maybe sitting outside, reading, painting my nails or snuggling with my kitty - as well as logging my food & moving some each day. Hope everyone has a great week! (my "me time" treat today was to go thru…

Loved your positive comments & enthusiasm! Obviously from your previous weight loss, you have had a very successful journey & I know you sure will "get 'em next week"!
