Sansa agreed to replace my player! :bigsmile:

Thanks Sandra for starting the thread! Great job Carrie on the BMI reduction! Ellie - what program are you doing next? This weekend was not kind to the diet, lol. I had 2 weddings, a birthday party, and a baby shower! Amazingly I'm only up 2.5 lbs since Friday, and every ounce was worth it :laugh: Hopefully it slides back…

As for me, it's been another crazy week with no exercise, plus TOM oh well. Does stress and running around burn extra calories? :laugh: I ate too many sweets at my daughter's birthday party!

Bringing Cynthia's post over

Curly - he seems to have deleted his account :frown: I hope he's ok.

Ellie I've been known to go up at least 3 lbs overnight after beer and wings :( But two days later it's gone.

Melissa - scroll down and you'll see some! They were exercise mixed with personal challenges. Despite an overwhelming amount of Chocolate (yes, with a capital C :tongue: ) the past few days, I've managed to only be up 1 lb from my lowest. TOM must be soon with my munchies. I really need to buckle down though, especially…

BTW, I really need the weekly challenges back to make me exercise. It's been too easy too do all the other million errands I have to do instead.

Wow did I overeat this weekend! We had some guys over for football watching Sat night and it was wings, pizza, chips, dips, etc. Yikes. I'm sure I ate like 3000 cals, I didn't add it up :blush: Oh well, moving on! I have a ton of peppers from our garden right now so I think I'll make a few different stuffed pepper recipes…

Holy crap are my legs sore today! Especially my inner thighs, you don't realize how much you use them running I guess. Ellie - I've been pondering what to do with my exercise routine as well. I was doing 3x/week each of running and lifting, but it was easier in the summer b/c of a slightly different schedule. Plus yoga…

Melissa - anyone can start the thread! I just have special powers that let me sticky it to the top :wink: FINALLY got back to running today after a month off. Let's just say the body unconditioned quickly! I was shooting for 2.5 miles, and probably did about 2 before i got a bad stitch. On the plus side, a skirt I bought a…

I can't believe it's Wed and no one posted a weekly thread! Where is everyone...Buhler? :laugh: I was home with DD Monday (schools closed) and slammed at work yesterday. Exercise is back to zero, blah, but at least I'm staying within calories for the most part. I kinda binged at a bachelorette party on Sat, but it was kind…

Hi Melissa! I'm slammed at work lately which is really making it hard to work out. I must make myself the priority again! Gained back a lb at weigh in day today, but it's been a pretty high sodium kind of week, so hopefully I see a loss soon. I'm headed to AC on Saturday night for a bachelorette party, so who knows what…

Doh! Forgot to lift last night after bedtime, and when I remembered it was almost 10pm. Sandra - that will totally drop the weight! Just be careful working out for a few days afterwards.

Spring cleaning is exercise! I ended up over cals yesterday unexpectedly but otherwise have done pretty well, other than tailgating Saturday. I got back to lifting Monday, but my day today was filled with meetings so I didn't manage it at lunch again, so I'm going to try and do as close to a full routine as possible…

I've been seriously slacking on exercise, I've been crazy busy at work (I go at lunch). On the plus side, my weight has been dropping, but I'm guessing when i start lifting again next week that water weight will come back a bit. My big girl started Kindergarten today! Big milestone.

I did great for Aug! My goals were: 1. Run 5 mile race mid-Aug (I really need to register ASAP!) - DONE in 1:02:56 2. Get under 140 once and for all! DONE Aug 27 Sept Goals: 1. Lose 2 more lbs (to 137) 2. Get back to hitting macros more consistently 3. Run 3 days/week (I had taken the last 2 weeks off)

Phew, holiday weekends are tough! I definitely overindulged, but nothing to be embarrassed about :laugh: I'm up about 0.5 lbs since Friday, but still under that 140 benchmark and I'm sure it will come back off quickly, my sodium was fairly high all weekend. Trying to get back in the swing of exercising, who's with me? I…

There is NO WAY I could resist that cheesecake! :laugh: Down 0.5 lb this week :smile: Slow and steady!

ha, typo, the bags were 40 lbs each, not 120! 120 total, lol. I'd be a rock star if i could lift that!

Hi all - I'm feeling a bit UNmotivated this week, at least exercise wise. I've stuck to my lower calories just fine but...exercise has been hit or miss. I've been incredibly stressed, and am essentially back at work full time and finding it hard to fit in everything, errands, calls, exercise. :ohwell: Despite that, I'm so…

I'm 5'4" age 36 with a medium build. Started at 155, right now at 140, aiming for 130. If if made a helluva effort I could probably get to 125, but I think it would be too hard to maintain. As it is I've been stuck at 140 for a few months now.

Heellloooooooo where is everyone? This week is a bust, so I'm going with enthusiast. Oops.

Welcome to the newcomers! Tamaryn - we have another South African here, Sandra (leeloominai)

Cynthia - glad to hear you are on the mend :) Take it easy my friend! Blue - hopefully you can learn the ropes fast. I see you are SO CLOSE to wearing your new sneaks! Ellie- I struggle with friends too, mostly in the summer because we tend to go out more in the summertime. I guess I should be happy I've mostly maintained…

Blue I hope you hear good news soon! I've been starving ever since Sunday, I think my body knew I was under for calories and needed to make them up. Last night I finally felt sated. I had an unexpected lunch out at applebees yesterday and did pretty well except the bread stick, was NOT expecting it to be so many calories…

Exercise Minutes: 250 Personal Goal: (yes or no & remind us what it was) Don't think I had one this week, lol "The Tortoise and the Hare" (RMC): (yes or no & if yes, what did you do?) tortoise - finished my 5 mile race, just 0.5 miles of wakling! Days logged in: (rounded down to the nearest 5) 190

My race was yesterday! :smile: I came in at 1042nd out of 1146 :laugh: with a time of 1:02:56. Slow, but I did it! I had to walk about half a mile in the middle due to a stitch, but otherwise ran the whole thing. Near the end my brother doubled back after he was done and ran a few blocks with me :smile: He had a great time…
