You look amazing! You handled yourself so well on TV. I am very impressed. Your sons are so sweet :)

I bet you could. You are on a roll!!! Tomorrow is my weigh in day. I am really hoping I will see 139 tomorrow. Wish me luck!

Great week Amy! Starting Weight (12/20): 141.8 Today's Weight (12/27): 140.8 Difference: -1 Overall Pounds Lost: 1pound in challenge Goal Weight: 128 ish

A B&B sounds nice! Hope everyone has a great start to the week :) My goal is to get to 139 this week. That would be AMAZING as it has not happened since 2003.

Good luck with the Turbo Plan! My strategy to overcome this plateau is to really focus on calories as well as adding strength training (push ups and sit ups primarily). I do the treadmill for exercise because it works out well. My kids can play in the basement with me while I work out. I alternate between walking fast and…

Nice job!!! I am so glad I read your post. I am hoping I will be able to use the same strategy for my holiday party tonight : )

I'd love to join this group! I need more friends on here too :) I'm still losing weight but it is real slow now. 12/20/10 Starting weight: 145 12/20/10 Current weight: 141.8 Goal weight: 128 ish Other Info... Age: 33 Occupation: part time Family: married with two kids ages 4 and 2 Location: U.S. Date you started losing…

Good luck! I did my first day this morning and found it to be quite a challenge! I am downgrading myself to column 2 so I don't completely overdo it.

I am going to do week 1 day 1 tomorrow in column 3. It will be so cool if I can do this! I have mainly done "girl" push-ups since I was 15!

Sounds like you have a positive outlook! It's cool that you inspired your friend and hopefully yourself in the process :)

This looks interesting. I did the initial test today and could only do 11 but it really hurt my hands more than anything. I think I will give this a try.

This is a great topic! I tend to lose motivation when I have one or two bad days and then I am afraid to get on the scale. I tell myself I will get back on track before weighing myself and then next thing I know two months have gone by and I am up 7 pounds. My new thing is getting on the scale at least 3 times a week, even…

Mine are now 3 1/2 and 2. I have an old picture for my profile :) Yeah, I just didn't put that I was nursing because it is just so different than when you are nursing exclusively (before solids). I think I said that my lifestyle was more active to account for the nursing (so that I could have some extra calories).

I wish I did! I just really monitored my calories and stopped thinking of breastfeeding as a calorie burn (which was a sad adjustment for me). I also stopped eating the lunches that I was making for my toddler. How old is your oldest?

Welcome and good luck! Have you lost weight more quickly with breastfeeding? I remember that with both of mine the quick weight loss stalled right around 9 months and I had to actually start exercising! It totally sucked!!!

Welcome back! I am really big on string cheese. It is somewhat filling for a snack and I can eat in in the car or easily bring it somewhere. In terms of lunches, when I worked full time It was all about lean cuisine for me :)

This is a great topic! I am glad to know I am not alone :) I just renewed mine a few days ago and felt a bit guilty about my blatant lie but I figure it is more motivation to make it true. I am 14 pounds over.

No sweets in June will be quite a challenge!!! I want in!! I did have ice cream yesterday, but will start today. I'd been telling one of my coworkers that I was wanting to see if I could do without sweets. I think i can... maybe.... Anyway, I feel like I should given the fact that I had an insane amount of sweets during…

That is a good attitude! I am actually skipping my weigh in today because it is my tom and I just can't deal with seeing a disappointing number. Who knows, I may get courageous and try it anyway... We shall see!

You are doing great!!!

I would love to join. 11/08: 162 pounds start of MFP 5/31/09: 145 pounds Current weight: 140.2 pounds :)

Great info! Thanks so much for sharing!!

Thanks for sharing this! Hey would you mind telling my 8 month old about this? It sure would be nice if she would sleep through the night! :smile: But seriously, I totally feel like when I am sleeping better I eat better! The worst is when I wake up at 4am to feed my daughter and I am too hungry to fall back asleep so I…

Sounds like you are doing great!!! Is everyone all geared up for tomorrow's weigh in?!?

I didn't have time to read through all the other posts so sorry if this is repetitive... I have a 2 year old and an 8 month old. I try to just do random "dance parties" throughout the day. My son finds them fun and I often hold my 8 month old and dance around. Also my son and I will run back and forth to the door and back.…

Nice progress this week!

Holy cow!!! What a great week!!!

I'm down 1.4lbs :)

What a great start!! That is very impressive!!

You have accomplished so much!!! I was there myself this past weekend- totally binging, but forgive and forget! Try not to dwell on the mistakes and focus on the positive. You can do it- one meal at a time (like others said):flowerforyou:
