Hey I am in the same boat! My last day is tomorrow. I've had this job for three years and I willingly accept the new change. Good luck! Make sure to leave with a bang today, like put saran wrap over the toilets or hand out some pot brownies :laugh:

I went into a pasta coma last night. And now I'm thinking it's too early to be up! Thank heavens it's almost the weekend! Have a great day everyone!

That depends, when is a good day to start for you?

I am the same way. I would not be able to do this thing without support and encouragement. Just remember, you ARE strong enough! I will send you a request and we can all motivate one another :smile:

Ultimately I would like to lose about 80 pounds. I try to not focus on that big number though and take baby steps! 10 pounds at a time is what I keep telling myself.

I try to mix it up as much as I can. I like greek yogurt, fruit, oatmeal, cereal or even just some toast with cheese on it. I try to pick something that will keep me full the longest. Usually wears off by 10am either way though :laugh:

I try my hardest to not eat those burned calories. It just defeats the purpose of working out and burning all those calories off, in my opinion.

What is your favorite type of tea right now? I am in love with Green Tea Superfruit by Lipton. I am drinking it now actually :smile:

This!

I have wonder the same thing! I usually don't count it as my water intake. I am happy to meet a fellow tea lover, by the way! I love hot tea. I do not put anything in it either.

I heard somewhere that for however much body fat percentage you have, that is how many ounces you should be drinking. So if someone has 30% body fat, they need to be drinking at least 30 ounces of water a day. There are honestly so many different opinions about water intake I never know which one to believe!

Oh great! I didn't know you could request it on the side. Coolio.

Turkey pepperoni. So nasty!

I have not tried it yet. I was turned off when I saw that it was almost 300 calories. However, it is that many calories because it has cream and brown sugar already mixed in it with lots of fruit. I wouldn't want everything added already. That is why I like the oatmeal at Starbucks. Any extras comes in separate packs and…

I like that there is a good mixture of opinions here! I would agree with va_va_voom. I like being outdoors and would rather doing something that allows me to be outdoors first. I did have a gym membership, but I canceled it when I started college so I could use their gym a couple of times. I did enjoy that more than the…

When I dropped about 30 pounds a year ago I noticed that my shoe size went down almost 2 complete sizes. Have you measured your feet recently? Maybe they have changed?

I weigh myself without clothes once a week, same day of the week, and same time. Fridays first thing when I wake up before I jump in the shower.

Sweet Dee is one of my favorite characters off of the show It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and 80 is how many pounds I want to lose.

I feel sexy when I am breathing.

I have the iPhone 4S. It is not that smart sometimes. Siri has a hard time cooperating with me.

Wow, this is amazing. Thank you for the encouragement. You look fantastic! I think the hardest part about setting a goal of losing a lot of weight, is patience. We all want results now and it is hard to see in the future. I am currently not weighing myself. I got really discouraged when I was eating healthy and working…

I will mash 1/2 an avocado with some garlic salt and pepper and put it on a turkey burger. It's so good! Or I will just cut it into slices and put it on some fish tacos.

You look fantastic! Great work!

I get annoyed by the women who wear a full face of makeup with the hair all nice and pamper to the gym. To each its own, but I don't get it. I look like death because I am going to be sweating and working my *kitten* off. It is just a waste of makeup. Selfishly, I get annoyed by the people who pass me on the indoor track.…
