Hi everyone! I'm doing my best to live Paleo after falling off the wagon during the holidays. My diary is open to my friends feel free to add me!

I'm in the same boat...doing my best to get motivated again. Add me if you want support and encouragement! Best wishes on your journey! Feel better soon!

Would love to join if there is room...please post details.

Hi Fran, I'm Midge and very active here...if you are looking for support and encouragement and are willing to do the same for me feel free to add me...just drop me a note because I only friend people that send a quick message.

I don't eat back the calories I burn...but I like logging my exercise.

I eat fruit and veggies when I want them...so far it's working. Best wishes!

Hi everyone! I have been MIA for a few weeks now! Passed my inspections and reviews with flying colors! I'm having trouble getting back on program. It was so easy to slip back into my old habits...wish my new habits stuck. Any tips for getting back onto program would be greatly appreciated! Thanks everyone! Yeah Sara!…

Yeah Sara! Congrats to your hubby finishing school! Don't worry about the pound it's probably just water weight! You got this!

Hi everyone! Sorry I've been MIA! Very stress ful week and another one coming up! I will be able to concentrate on CTL after the 5th. Between closing on a house and getting ready for several reviews ( inspections) for paperwork I'm just stressed. Everything is under control but wanting to be more then good has taken its…

Hey everyone! You are all doing so well. I am so happy for all of you! Keep up the great job you're all doing! Well the scale did not move for me this week...which is fine because the tape measure is my new best friend? I lost 3" on my waist and 3.8 on my hips....I'm so happy! Didn't really notice the loss because I have…

Thank you, thank you thank you...this is a wonderful site with so much support and encouragement! I'm glad I stumbled upon this supportive community for ladies my age...you are all awesome! Midge in Florida

Your first quarter of the year sounds similar to mine except the union stuff. We will get through this! We can get it all completed and then some...it's not worth losing sleep over...we always get it done! Best wishes!

Would love to join this group....I can always use more vitamin F! My goals for February are : to lose 5 pounds lose 2 inches from my wast Lose 3 inches from my hips Walk 6 days a week.

This week has been a good one. I stuck to the program and I am really enjoying it. I measured myself and I have lost more inches than I thought I did (for the whole month)...Yay! I am determined to measure on a monthly basis now. Hope you all are doing well and have a great week end! Thanks for all the support you have…

Hey JB, I feel the same exact way...I thought I was crazy...glad to see I am not. It took me forever on Sunday to get all the calories I wanted to eat. I have been very good and I am so loving CTL. Keep up the good work...I really enjoyed reading your post. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing ! I didn't know he has a DVD out either.

Thanks for all the info! I'm going to take a closer look at my diet and see if I'm hitting the right grams for protein, carbs and fats.... I may be off somewhere because I did not have a loss this week! Thanks again, this is very helpful!

Thank you thank you thank you! I would love a copy too please.

I'm 52 and I am doing it...it can be done! Best wishes on your journey. If you want motivation and encouragement and want to give that support too feel free to add me as a friend! You can do it!

Giving up s the easy way out...if its worth it it takes effort and time. Maybe you are trying too hard. Why not log what you or ally eat in a day for 2 weeks ad see what the a lories are...then just drop your a lories by 200- 500 calories a day ( as long as you don't go below 1200 a lories a day) and add some walking into…

Let's see...this is the year I'm going to get organized. I started to get rid of files that are over 7 years.... Yeah I have had files since 1998. Now down to 2002 it's a start. I don't need to be perfect...this is a big one I'm hoping I can do. Balance more balance in my life with family and friends and business/ office…

Wow! Great job losing 8 pounds!

Welcome Laurie! Instead of looking at exercise as a chore...why not incorporate it into a lifestyle by playing with the kids? Take walks with them, walk while they ride bikes. Play on the playground with them. Jump rope with them (that is my favorite exercise) it burns lots of calories. You will all enjoy the activities…

I reset mine too. But since I vary every other day I just use the the pie chart to see where I am. I don't know if I'm doing it right but it's the way I'm keeping track...very confusing!

Hey Susan, seems like you are making great strides to get your business under control...forgetting to eat was an issue for me too....I now set my phone to go off every few hours to remind me to eat. I was up to my eyeballs in paper work and thank goodness for the phone alarm to remind me so I did get 4 meals in. It's a…

Hey Mexico4fun...2013 is going to be our year I can feel it! Thanks for helping the families of our military...it's so important that they have help while their loved ones are away! Organization is going to be another goal of mine in 2013, we can do this! Happy Healthy and a Prosperous New Year to you!

Hi Susan! Maybe you should hire someone to help with the business or food prep and cooking ( I'm lucky that my hubby enjoys that) but I hired someone part time to work the business, so that I could go and play ( I'm taking up kayaking in 2013 and hiking). It seems to me that we need to delegate a little more to be…

Didn't do too bad during the Christmas holiday, but did gain a few pounds...already lost 3 of them and 3 are left to go. We can do this! I have even hired someone to free up some of my time to workout. Feeling good about 2013, we can do this! Thanks for your support and encouragement mexico4fun!

Would love to join if its ok... I know there are only 5 days left but I can do the min of. 180 minutes! Looking forward to doing it next month too if you continue this challenge.
