  • Hi, Each of us face times with low motivation. I don't know if there is a easy fix but here is somethings that have seemed to help me. 1. Set a goal and tell someone. (It amazing how if someone else knows your goals, it helps by holding you responsible) 2. The other thing I do is look on line at clothes I would love to…
  • Scales are frustrating. I have used "really good" scales and have gotten poor results. Currently, I am using out Wii fit board as my scale. The best of luck finding a reliable scale.

  • Good Morning All, I just did week 1 weigh in .... 255.5 down -3.8 pounds I did not make it to Curves 3x this week but I had some medical things going on and probably will be back on track with Curves this weekend or early next week.
  • Good Morning All ; My starting weight is 259.3, my goal weight for April 27th (I do "weigh-in on Fridays) is 253.3. That is 6 pounds total... 1 1/2 pounds per week, a very healthy goal.

  • Sound good to me... I will try and see what happens.
  • My goals are... Exercise 5 times a week for at least 1/2 hour... (3 should be Curves and the other 2 can be walking or whatever as long as I am moving) Break through to over 10 pounds loss... A couple weeks ago I was going back to old habits, I am back on track now. Track all the food I eat... even the stuff I don't want…
  • Hi Jkmimmett... What an amazing job you have done so far. I am sure you will be able to reach your goal. I do believe that often we have a mental block that occurs when we a so close to succeeding. I know I do personally, I have lost weight before and gained it back and more... But this time it is different, this time we…
  • I am trying to stay positive... I did Curves 3 times this week, and stayed the same when I weighed in... But to be completely honest, I overindulged at least two days... and yesterday even though I was within calories, I ate out twice and had a piece of Dairy Queen blizzard cake... all that extra sodium wasn't good... The…
  • That is a really hard question. With a family of 4, our grocery bill is one of our largest expenses. However, even if a "low-cal" pre-package food is on sale, it is still loaded with sodium and things and we can't say or spell. So, I try to buy a lot of "whole" foods and break them into smaller packages. When I am on…
  • Hi Randi, Welcome. I am fairly new too with ideally 140 pounds to lose. Sounds like you are off to a great start. Take care, Samantha
