Me -- 6 LNS -- 1

6/7 today with a 6 mile walk with mom, gorgeous day outside. Now going to take my 2 nieces and my great niece & nephew to see The Lorax. I can never resist spending time with a small baby. I've tried to tell all the people I sit for that one of them needs to have a baby, but none of them went for it. I miss having a little…

want to come back later.

Zaza, is there an official cut off time? I think it would have to be your judgement on your day. Not everyone lives on the same schedule. And it's not healthy to skip dinner, just because of a time limit on this challenge. Don't let this set you back if you were in your calorie limit & ate a reasonable dinner, not a meal…

5/7 had a day off, so got in a good workout. Did my exercise routine & mixed it up yet again, 25 mins. Then did 40 mins on the exercise bike, followed by 35 mins on the treadmill. All in one flow, instead of breaking it up in bits & pieces throughout the day.

Me -- 5 LNS -- 1 I had even planned to have some Peeps last night, had plenty of calories and put them on my diary before closing it out, & then never ate them. Super star, I am sorry you are struggling, but try to focus on the positive. You had 2 days without snacking. would you have done that before. Now build on that…

First off, I am from Derby, KS, that is a small town just outside wichita, ks. & Verda, I thought spring was here also, especially since we never really had winter here. But I woke up this morning to the DJ's on the radio saying there was white stuff falling from the sky & they weren't sure what it was since we hadnt seen…

Ok. 3/7 and boy did I earn it today. Long story, but one of my bosses is remodeling and we left a ton of stuff in one closet that was not going to be touched (yeah, right!). anyway the builders have now decided they are going to remove the back wall of the closet, so all of that stuff had to come out. Well, the only way to…

Me -- 4 LNS -- 1 had to drive to meet my niece about 1 1/2 hours (3 hrs round trip) away to pick up great niece and nephew. they are spending the next several days with us. I can't drive without snacking. So I planned ahead kept dinner really light and took pretzel sticks and cuties for the drive & was home about 9:15.…

At least you resorted to a healthy snack. As far as techniques, my only option is stay out of the kitchen, & mind over matter. I'm usually pretty determined, but late night snacking is my biggest downfall when it comes to my eating, I keep calories purposely for all the things I know I will eat after dinner. Really need to…

Late night snacking won last night. I had to clean my hedgehog cages & that involves being in the kitchen at night. But it doesnt have to involve eating. Had a slice of light bologna, because it looked good & some marshmallows because they are my favorite, I buy them in several flavors. anyway as punishment I made myself…

Looks like everyone had a productive monday. 2/7 first off I did my 100 work out, but it is no longer 100. I changed it up, took about 20 mins. 70 Jumping jacks, 60 crunches, 50 squats, 40 leg lifts, 30 wood choppers 60 jumping jacks, 50 crunches, 40 squats, 30 leg lifts, 20 wood choppers 50 jumping jacks, 40 crunches, 30…

Thanks to all. I t looks like everyone finished up strong last week. And we're off to a good start this week. I want 6/7. But for today I am 1/7 did a 4.41 mile walk with mom, took about 72 mins. Now it's time for dinner.

yesterday was my first day: me --1 LNS -- 0 Yea! Karen. Great Job!

I have only been using this site since the beginning of January, but yes I log everything and yes, I complete my day every day. It lets friends know you are done for the day and if you have your diary open to others gives them a chance to see what you did and comment on your diet or even learn from it. I like the feedback…

Here's a quote for all you exercisers & body builders "Will power is a muscle, the more you use it, the stronger it will get!" If I want something sweet, I usually will have a miniature candy bar, I keep them in the freezer, so while it thaws I can think about if I really want it or not. & I can turn a mini candy into 4…

I would like to join. I will start tonight. After dinner snack allowable to 9 pm. (recently had a lesson at our tops club, that this helps with overnight metabolism.) But must be a healthy snack (cereal, cheesestick, low cal pudding, fruit, etc). NOT JUNK (for me that means no candy, marshmallows, chips etc.)

I also use a heartrate monitor & & I put my calories in according to what the monitor says. On a normal exercise day, say 30 - 40 mins on the treadmill or exercise bike I try not to eat my calories back, but dont fret if I eat some of them. However we are training for our 5th half marathon, so on a big training day or a…

Congrats on the great loss!! I love this group as well. I like the fact that we can each do our own thing. The group I was in previously wanted to tell you what you had to do for the week, & there were penalties if you didnt. I just want accountability. thanks to this group for helping with that.

Didnt get any exercise in yesterday, long day at work, & an unplanned night out. It was fun but by the time I got home at 9:30 I couldnt even talk myself into 30 mins on the exercise bike. But I still got 5/7 today went for long walk. Was supposed to be 6 miles but my mom wasnt feeling well at the end, we did 5.7. took 1…

If you stayed within your calorie goal and you exercised it off if is not cheating to me. I allow myself treats all the time so long as they are within my calorie goal. & I never order fries or something like that for myself, but I do indulge myself by having a couple of me nieces if they are with me. that way I get the…

4/7 beautiful weather here so I got in another 4 mile walk. 68 mins. That's about a 17 min mile, but I wasnt pushing for time, just exercise. You guys really believe in getting in some exercise on here. I love it. What is ChaleneX? I need to vary my routing, that is why I do the 100 workout.

bump for later

Wednesday -- 3/7 after my rest day yesterday, I really pushed it today. Did a 4 mile walk averaging 16 mins miles. 30 mins on the exercise bike and my 100 workout, which takes about 22 mins. But not all together. Thanks makeit for info on finding site I will try that next time. Not real familiar with computer things like…

I love my Kindle fire. that said if I could have afforded it I would have bought an I-Pad with 3G. With Kindle fire to get on the internet you must always have wi-fi available. another thing is the Kindle fire does not have a camera. For me it was a matter of budget though. If you only want to browse around on the internet…

Thanks for welcome, glad to have somewhere to be accountable without pressure, besides myself that is. Is there an easier way to get back to Topic to make a post? In order to re-find your location I went back to my recent posts & clicked on the topic title. Is there a better way? Day 2/7 for me. Did my 100 workout (22 min)…

Can anyone join in & how does this work? my goal is actually 6/7, with tuesday being my day off & one day a week, being a long day. I have been doing this since the beginning of January & was involved in another challenge, but am now looking for some new motivation. What day does your week start on? & do you post daily or…

thanks for the Mickey comment, He's the man. That was taken after doing the DisneyWorld Half marathon. We have since also done the Disneyland Half & gotten the Coast to Coast medal, It has Walt & Mickey on it, so I HAD to have it. Great reason to do 2 half marathons in one year. LOL.

I have a Polar monitor, not sure without looking at it which model it is. & I am sitting in my bed and it is in the other room, but I got it at sears. At the time, they had 3. One very basic, one a little in the middle as far as features offered & one that did a lot more, but cost a lot more. After some debate I went with…
