Cheeeese!

Hi! My husband and I have been TTC for almost 3 months now and I have been trying to lose my last 10 lbs in the process. I am trying to stick to a 1200-1300 calorie diet with regular exercise.

You can do it! Its a daily climb... step by step. It won't happen overnight and you may not notice it but it happens as you make the decision to change your habbits. Stay strong and control yourself. Don't imagine being skinny or guys looking at you... that will happen... but only after you are happy with yourself. So…

bump!

My mother in law has only lost 10 lbs and she has lost like 4 dress sizes, so no that isn't something to worry about... you could be gaining everything you are losing in muscle which is even better :)

Bump!

Its actually not that bad if you are careful for 580 calories, I can have two slices of papa johns pizza and I feel full afterwards! I enjoy pizza 3-4 times a month and I don't end up regretting it. Its all about regulating. I know that I have to have a light lunch if I know I'm having pizza for dinner :)

No, I don't eat my calories back. Yes, I have been losing weight consistently. :) 33lbs gone so far

If you did not send me a message Friday, you were not included in the challenge.

**Bump**

Bump! Anyone else interested in joining?

I'm not sure as to how many per team yet but I am thinking about 4-7... but it depends on how many people end up signing up. I don't want to do anymore than 7 though because then each person doesn't have enough effect on the results.

how much was the vest?

I will post a reminder to the news feed-- but you must be friends with me to see this reminder. I cannot send a private message to everyone. There are also some people asking to keep weigh ins private so I will only post % of weight loss for each person, total weight loss for each team and % of weight loss for each team.

Are you doing reverse crunches? They are supposed to help with the spot towards the bottom of our belly.

I am looking forward to our challenge!! I will post daily challenges on the news feed so you will need to friend me to see the daily challenges. Its easier to find than a post to the message boards. I will post the results every Saturday!

Definitely but i will still need your weigh in info friday!

Depends on your incline and resistance... I would just do it and work on getting a better time each time.

I did WW for a couple months and it worked for me but it was too expensive. i learned a lot though so I figured that I could just continue it on my own. With their new points plus system though, I feel like its so much work to figure out your points that I never wanted to do it. Counting calories (esp for free) is so much…

haha! that's awesome and definitely a NSV! Hope you have a great cheeto-free day!

I always try to eat the smallest number of calories for breakfast that I can handle (while feeling full) so that I have the calories for later in the day. I don't want to get stuck with less than 350 calories for dinner. But my intake is set for 1200 so mine will be a bit lower. Plus, when I used to eat a lot of calories…

I would create a trial day. Take some of the foods that you normally eat and put them on the food tracker.... see what your calorie intake would have been. Then take things out and adjust them and use it as a guide for the next day. Its hard to guage how many calories to eat and when but if you start out with what you…

Thank you so much for putting this together!! it is so nice to be able to see all the stats too! You're hard work is appreciated!

I would definitely suggest getting an ipod. Other mp3 players usually require that you convert songs to make them in a format that is compatible with the mp3. The new ipod nano has a radio and also has a pedometer. Hope this helps!

Thank you all so much. My relationship with my dad has been different than most other people because my dad didn't approve of my husband. For 3 years before our wedding, he claimed he wanted us to break up and he didn't want to have anything to do with us when we first got married. This has just started to change for the…

That happens to me a too. I have it down to a science. I have found that when I stand on the scale at night before I go to bed. I weigh exactly 2 lbs less in the morning when I step onto the scale. Your normal body functions affect your weight plus movement when you are on the scale. Plus, as you go to bed, your body is…

When sugar free is written on something... esp like a dessert it means it was meant for people with diabetes. My grandfather has diabetes and I have to buy food that is sugar free but it doesn't mean that it is healthy for you. In fact, more often than not, it includes more oil and fat that the real thing. Most of the…

I did it... forgot to post yesterday!!
