I finally broke my plateau!!!!!!!!!!!!!:bigsmile: CW: 194.5 I have been trying really hard this week, and I am glad to see it pay off. Hopefully I can see some more progress in the coming weeks. Also, I finally took my measurements, and I am hoping to hold of 1 whole month before taking them again, with hopes of seeing a…

Thanks, that makes me feel better. I was starving after eating only 2 oz of cooked spaghetti!

Jalara - I will be thinking of you in the coming days! I am sure all will go well with fixing your "baby maker", and you will soon be on your way to having a baby!! To all the new people - Welcome, we love to have you in our group. I am hoping to drop another 10-20 lbs before we start TTC in June/July. I did go to the gym…

Off to the gym I go! I am rewarding myself with Subway if I make it 20 minutes on the elliptical!

Wow, I haven't checked in since Wednesday, and I cant believe all the happy news! Congrats on the Twins! My husband wants twins so bad, you will have to tell me if you did anything special:tongue: I had a productive weekend. I started my spring cleaning. I have to believe that I am burning calories, but it is hard to tell.…

Hi, I totally forgot to weigh in. My days are starting to blend together I think! I will make sure to hit the scale tomorrow morning. My husband is on spring break this week, and we have eatten out every night!! He is such a bad influence on me, it isn't even funny. Does anyone else have someone like that, and how do you…

My doctor, and several friends all recommended the Target Brand vitamins. I think the brand name is Up and Up, or somthing like that. I got the ones that have the DHA in them. I have been taking them every day, and cut out my old regular ones. I personally think my body is more accepting of these ones, as I don't get a…

Thanks for all the links. I hope to catch up on a lot of them today at lunch. This weekend we were at my parents house, which always leads to junk food and eatting out. I plan to hit up the gym this week hard core, and hope to see a few lbs less by the end of the week. Now time for the exciting part: We are buying a car…

I am back too, although, I was never totally gone. I am very frustrated, as I haven't lost a single pound in 3 weeks. I have heard about hitting a point where you just stop loosing, but I really didn't think it would happen after 1 month!! The other reality is that I am just 3-4 months away from possibly being pregnant,…

Holey Caribou!!!! I treated myself to Caribou this morning. I got a medium hot chocolate. Then I came to work, and put it into my diary for the day...............630 Calories!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:noway: Guess it is leafy greans for the rest of the day. I couldn't believe it. A drink with 630 calories!…

Hey, I am so glad you are back. And to be back in a neck brace...I guess i have no excuses :happy:

Angela - Thanks for starting the thread, and I like the challenge. I am unchanged since last week, but I am hoping that is due to it being my TOM. I decided I am finally going to take measurements tonight, as I feel like my pants are getting looser, but I am not seeing the results on the scale. Maybe the tape measure will…
-
Me too! Dh and I decided that we are just going to go with the flow. Even though we will only be around each other a total of about 15 hours a week....we sure can make those 15 hours fun TTC. I am really trying to work on strengthening my core. Several of my friends who have been pregnant say they wish they would have…

Confession time: I ordered a cheese pizza, garlic parmesan chicken wings, and garlic cheese bread last night! I ate it, it tasted amazing, and I didn't feel guilty about it at all!!!! Now for the why: My husband just found out that he is being moved to 3rd shift until the end of August, possibly longer. He also goes to…

I didn't have any measureable loss either. Well, actually while I was sick last week I gained 2.5 lbs, and this week I lost the 2.5 lbs, so I am back to the weight I was at 2 weeks ago. I am pretty upset though that I will be hitting the end of the month with only a 1 lb loss for 28 days....that is pretty sad:sad: I hope…

Stay away from Butter Chicken, but I bet you could have guessed that just from the name :laugh: Most Indian chicken dishes my family eat's are based in sauces, which are usually yogurt and tomato based, but many have heavy cream as well. You can ask at the resturant to get light sauce, which helps with the calories. Dry…

Welcome to all the newbies....it is so great to have so much support! We weigh in once a week, on Wednesdays. I just realized I really need to get my butt in gear. Each month I am not making my goals, which is starting to add up. If I don't get going soon, I am not going to be where I want to when I get pregnant. This…

Jalara - You can do it! I know it is very dissapointing. I know this is much easier to say, but just the food you are putting in your body is probably better than it used to be. You are going to the gym and getting your heart pumping. Even if you aren't seeing the weight loss, you have to believe that you are making a…

What an absolutly horrible week for me. Sorry to start out on a bad note, but man was it aweful! I have been sick with strep, a sinus infection and the flu. I haven't worked out, and laid in bed for about 6 days straight. I ate very little, but somehow managed to gain 2.5 lbs?!?!?!?! I am really upset, considering there is…

I feel like I fell off the side of the earth for a few days. Welcome to all the newbies, and congrats to those of you who are pregnant. I have the flu, a sinus infection and strep. Nothing like getting hit with all three at once. My only goal this week is to not gain. I am not working out, and I am not logging my food. I…

Welcome KimberlyKurtz, it is great to have you. SW:202.5 CW:195.5 Lost this week: 1.5 lbs Jalara - Great idea for the challenge this week. I love streaching, but I always tend to forget. I didn't do very well with the last challenge, only 2 of the 7 days, but I still saw weight loss, so I am happy. Does anyone else have…

I just turned down McDonalds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My Co-workers are all going to McDonalds for lunch, and I will be staying here and eatting my salad! That is a HUGE accomplishment in my book. I even went a plugged it all into my food diary just to see if it would all fit in, and it would....but I turned it down…

Well I did fairly well the last few days considering. I am only at 2/7 days on the challenge, but I have done OK eatting. Last week was very stressful, emotional, etc. I am hoping this week will get back to normal and I can focus on myself again. I have my gym clothes in the car, and hopfully I will go on my way home from…

Hi Girls, Jalara - your 6 hour challenge sounds like a lot of fun, and I totally know what you mean about the recovery time. I have been noticing that I am able to get back up and do it again much faster! My calories are set at 1200. I am usually able to stay within 100+/- at least 5 days a week. If I work out, I usually…

SW: 202.5 CW:197.0 Well only a 1/2 lb loss this week, but it is MUCH better than I was expecting after eatting out almost every day last week. I did horrible on the challenge (its even worse that I came up with it too:blushing: ) I did go to the gym last night, and am very sore today, but I plan to go tonight as well. I…

Angela, I am having so much fun watching your little baby ticker!! I have committed 100% to going to the gym tonight. I believe this week is going to be a gain week for me, because as of Sunday morning, I had gained 2.5 lbs:noway: Not looking forward to weighing in tomorrow morning. You all need to hold me accountable for…

Spent the day at Jury Duty, and didn't feel like going to the gym after. I am only 22 calories over today, so I think I am going to just chill tonight and read my book. I am hoping tomorrow I can get back on track, as I haven't been to the gym in a week and a half. I am having baby brain too. A lot of my friends are…

I agree with the others. I think fruit ( a bag of stawberries already cut up and hulled, cut up some apple slices and put a little lemon juice on them to keep them fresh, some clementines already pealed) would be best. You really wont want to eat too much, and these should be relatively quick if you prepare before hand.…

Welcome Sara! There are a few on this thread that are already pregnant, and there are some of us trying to get pregnant, and then the rest of us are trying to loose the weight so we can try to become pregnant. Everyone here is very supportive!
