That's awesome - congratulations. I can't run to save my life LOL

If you fell down yesterday...stand up today (H.G. Wells) Need to do this today. Have a great weekend!

That's so wonderful - congratulations. Enjoy the moment you so deserve it B)

Sorry it's a little difficult for you right now but you seem to have next week in your sights so I hope it's a much better one for you :) Take care

Weigh-in day is fast approaching (Jan 31st) so don't forget to add your stats to the team spreadsheet! It doesn't matter if you're up, down or stuck on that plateau, it's the taking part and being accountable that counts so you can make the same or better choices going forward. We're really whizzing through the weeks B)

Hello dillyg08 hope you're having a great week B)

Potato chips are evil *LOL* and sometimes I just have to have them. We've been buying Tostitos Tortilla chips with a hint of lime and they are so yummy. I like them as a better alternative to potato chips and as a bread substitute from time-to-time. They are great with soup! Too many temptations.

Thank you - it's amazing how it all adds up. Round 3 exercise spreadsheet is now open if you'd like a side challenge to this one. It can be found here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11PYF5Hxt7-djBO-aNAm63ZYZdDO0kVDEZf_78aGTZQ0/edit?usp=docslist_api This time round it is to record the number of miles you do. If you…

Great goals dilly and sara - sugar has been my downfall too so balancing it out will be the key for me! Happy Sunday

It's Friday and the weekend is just around the corner. Do you find it easier to stick to your goals and fitness plans during the week or at the weekend? Enjoy!

People often say that motivation doesn't last...Well, neither does bathing that's why we recommend it daily! (Zig Ziglar) Have a Terrific Tip Top Thursday Team. I agree Dillyg08 thank you.

Thank you. Don't think I did too badly calorie wise yesterday. Had a steakhouse lunch but they're speciality is Buffalo which is supposed to be a very low fat steak meat so I had a protein high lunch which filled me up for the rest of the day. There were a few roast potatoes on the side and a gorgeous salad. Had a small…

It's Weigh-in Wednesday today so head over to the spreadsheet when you get a chance. Can you believe another 10 days of this jump start challenge has already whizzed by. Looking forward to seeing how everyone has done.

Fabulous news and what a great boost. Sometimes we just a little movement to give us the inspiration to move forward...and yes you will do this.

It's so super hard and I've been struggling since Oct so I know where you're coming from but please don't think you're letting the team down...that's not the case. Take it easy and we will get there.

May not log my calories today - it's my Birthday

Thanks for sharing dillyg08 and great tip about the water. I also like to keep some exercise cals back but it does depend on the intensity, how long I've been working out and what form of exercise I've been doing especially if I've taken a long bike trip. Yes it is much easier to track with MFP but I do worry that the…

How is this challenge working out for you ladies? Do you have any calorie busting tips you can share with the team? Do you only count calories or are you using another method? How do you monitor your calories? Only with MFP or another method? Do you eat back your exercise calories?

It's the weekend - what are your calorie counting plans to stay on track this weekend?

Getting started is always the hardest part, but after you get going, you're always glad you did it!

How's your second MFP Calorie Counting week going?

Congratulations diddles19 for making it into the top three of most weight lost in the first week

I did a short cycle and some walking. Feeling tired today so little energy for a lot of exercise.

It's Workout Wednesday - what exercise plans do you have for today?

It's Tone Up Tuesday - great seeing your fantastic losses on the weight loss spreadsheet. I will be weighing myself today and will update later.

Here's a link to Slow Cooker Apple Pie Steel Cut Oatmeal from the MFP blog in case you missed it http://blog.myfitnesspal.com/slow-cooker-apple-pie-steel-cut-oatmeal/

It's Monday - let's make this a week to remember. You Can Do It.

Fantastic - love that you don't let that crazy weather of yours stop you in your tracks. Chilli Turkey sounds yummy.

It's the first weigh-in for our team today so head over to the weight loss spreadsheet when you get a chance. I don't have a scale at home so will add mine as soon as I can.

WHEN: You're on a run and hit a tough hill THINK: This hill is tough, but I am tougher WHEN: Your to-do list has you tempted to skip a workout THINK: Exercise gives me energy and makes me feel happy WHEN: Your muscles are fatigued and you still have one more set left THINK: I am powerful, I am unstoppable WHEN: You argue…
