Had a craving for some fried chicken gizzards....I live in the south, go figure...LOL But anyways, I went on my lunch break and got me some. And wow....I have to work extra hard at the gym tonight because the gizzards and the tots that I had to go with it was over 900 cals. But that is just fine!!! It was a really strong…

You got this....Work thru the PMS and you will be fine!!!

I am a member here in Leesburg. I like it alot....The people that work there aren't the nicest group that I have dealt with but I don't go there to socialize...LOL I usually have my music going and just go do what I gotta do. But I really do like it and will probably sign up again when my membership is up. Barb

I drink Slim Fast every once in a while. I keep them stocked in my fridge because if I am not really hungry but I know that it is time to eat then I will just grab one so that I don't go into "starvation" mode. But it isn't part of a routine for me. Barb

Hang in there...You will bust it in no time!

Haha...thanks! I meant that I was going to lose more than 1 pound last week! I (literally) worked my butt off last week. I am going to try to do that again this week too!

My weight for the week is 185.4! That is a 3 pound weight loss!!!! Yay! I amped up my workouts last week and finally saw a decent loss. Barb

It's a new week which brings a clean slate! :)

That is so great! Looks like you have done an amazing job!!! Keep it up!!! Barb

So where is everyone???? I hope you all are having a great, successful week!!!!! Barb

Thanks, Steph! You are one of the people inspiring me with your posts and all that you do!

This is a better week for me. I had a 1.4 weight loss. I really want to have a bigger loss but I will take that especially since I was doing alot more strength training. Have a great day everybody!! Barb

Have you tried some form of strength training? Even push ups and lunges and some squats may help you bump up your weight loss.

Congrats on your loss! Isn't MFP great? I know that it has been a HUGE help to me. Barb

Congrats...That is great!

Well, I anticipated a weight gain. I gained 1.8 pounds. I have been working with weights a lot more and have been told since muscle weighs more than fat that I would actually see my number on the scale rise slightly. So that's fine. I can deal with that since I know that I have kept my eating under control!! :happy: Barb

I would just go with your new scales that way you are not having to keep up with extra numbers. LOL But don't let that get you down, you will get back under 180....

So sorry!!! It will get better. We all go thru those times when it is really hard to keep your mind in the "game"! That is why I love being part of this group, there are so many motivating people in here... Hang in there though!

That is awesome....We can't always pay attention to the number on the scale...That tape measure will tell more!! Keep it up!!

Do you guess with all the P90 workouts that you have been doing maybe the reason? You may be building muscle and your weight loss won't reflect on the scales but on the tape measure.

That is awesome! Good for you!!

I was doing the Monday morning rush this morning, so no time to weigh. But I am anticipating that I may have actually gained because of all of the strength training that I am doing now. That is fine though, I know that I did well with my calorie intake and it will take my body time to adjust to the strength training! I…

So I have a great week so far concerning my exercise. I am finally starting to find that groove again that I lost back in November. I probably won't get a chance to workout tonight but that is fine. I am still feeling good about what I have done. I hope that everyone has a great weekend!!! :) Barb

Hang in there! You will find that focus. At least at this point you are maintaining! That is a hard thing to do!

I weighed in this morning. I weighed 188 even, that is a loss of 1.4 pounds. My goal for this week is to work out 4 days and really keep an eye on my caloric intake. Congrats to all the "losers"!!! Barb

Thanks Steph and Bainos for the encouragement. Bainos, I need someone to tell me that when I am leaving work, lol, that is usually when I work out! Steph you are always a great support!! Barb

I am really needing some motivation! I started back in June trying to lose 100 pounds by my 40th birthday. So far I have only lost 31 pounds. I was going to the gym regularly and then in November, I have managed to go twice a week. At this rate I will never make my goal! I figured when this group started up that would make…

I only had a .8 loss for the week! That stinks but better than gaining, I suppose. Now that the holidays are over I will be able to get bigger results. It has been a long time since I have had a decent loss.

I was in a hurry this morning and didn't weigh but I will be sure to weigh in the morning! Have a great day all!!! Barb

That's the way to stay positive. You got this! :)
