If you are really craving pizza and have leftovers at home the flatout flatbread pizza is great - you make it yourself and get the whole thing for way less calories. I don't have the recipe in front of me, but if you do a search I'm sure you can find it - might even be on the package!! - just thought I'd share that little…

Well, I gained 1 pound this week and with gaining the last couple of weeks I feel like I am sliding backwards. I can't pinpoint why other than Stress and lack of exercise - I changed up exercising and went for a couple of really great bike rides this week. The stress is that I had to make the decision to take a different…

I gained 2 pounds this week - back to 244 (started this journey at 270 with MFP)...I have no one to blame but myself - I let life get in the way and thought I could take a "break" from working out - that and just didn't do it - so.... As of this week I have worked out 2 days in a row so far, woohooooo, but have added in…

Last week 247 This week 243 That is right, 4 pounds, technically I'm counting it as 1 pound lost as the last week was lots of water weight - but hey, I'll take every little bit I can get off that scale!!! - my goal is to get below - that is 27 pounds gone since I started my journey 11/1/10...It's slow, but it is steady…

I lost 3 pounds this week (17 since starting this challenge and 26 total since 11/1/10) - I'm very happy with my progress and without this challenge to keep pushing me I don't think I would have made it this far. I am shocked at any loss this week - two weeks sick with sinus/chest congestion and only exercised last sunday…
-
I am down 2 pounds this week - YAY!! - but of course that is after gaining 1 last week...don't look behind, right?!! - getting my train back on the track and full steam ahead - no way was my mind into this journey the last 1-2 weeks or I should say my heart, but with the help of all my MFP friends I'm back on…

Well I did gain 1 pound this week. I know my routine was way off this week, stress over bad weather, too much sodium and actually below my calories a couple of days. For some reason I really seem to do better when I eat at least 1200+ calories after my exercise calories are figured in...I did not have enough water intake…
-
I am up one pound this week!! - so I am currently at 249. I knew this week was a tough one only because too much sodium and not enough water!!! - Next week will be WAY better!!! :)

Down 3 pounds this week!!! - All I can say is WOOOOHOOOOOO :)!!!!!!!! That is 13 pounds down since starting this challenge and 22 pounds total thus far!!!! - so much more to go, but yet so much better than I have done in my effort to be healthier in my adult life!!! - Thank you to all of my MFP family for all that you do…
-
I am guilty as charged!!! - BUT......I was slacking on the weekends (not counting my calories) and not necessarily having a huge gain, but having to work extra hard to loose the one pound + due to not drinking my water or necessarily working out as hard....this last weekend I did count my calories (still working on the…

I had a loss of 2 pounds this week after a gain of 1 pound last week - My goal this weekend is to get a new scale that measures by the tenth, because waiting to see each pound loss is killing me - I am down 2 sizes in jeans which is awesome!!! - this is my 16th week on MFP and have lost 19 pounds (currently 251)...it is…
-
I want to join!!! - I do nothing but leslie sansone videos at this point (try for 2-3 miles per day). I know it is the middle of the month so I will set my goal at 45 miles for the rest of the month. Thanks MarieS14 for bring this group to my attention!!! - I will have to figure out at home tonight how to add an exercise…
-
Congrats on being ready for stepping it up!!! - I love anything by Leslie Sansone Walk away the pounds series!!! - They are low impact and a great way to get your heart rate up and sweat!! I love her 5 mile fat burning walk. You can do as little or as much as you want. I currently do 2-3 miles per day. It is brutally cold…
-
I totally agree this is not a quick fix - the weight is not going to miraculously fall off, but with hard work, deligence, sweat and maybe even some tears it is going to make a difference to a healthier life!! - I have tried every pill, powder, shake, TV gimmick, etc....not saying they are all bad, just saying with…
-
Thanks so much for breaking it down!!! - This really shows me that I am on track and just need to kick it into gear - I love this challenge and the committment and leadership that you gals have shown to the rest of the group!!! - I hope everyone has a fabulous week and see if we can't all push ourselves just a little bit…

I am down 2 jeans sizes and it feels FANTASTIC - No more MOM jeans for me - Yesterday - I had to pull out my driver's license at a store and my boyfriend's 14 year old son said that doesn't look like you anymore!!! - THAT WAS AWESOME!!! it has only been 17 pounds, so can't wait until it is that much more!!! :)
-
Well up 1 pound this week for the first time since this journey started - still down 17 and need to get back on track - My own fault as I had way to much sodium and acohol the last day or two - (had to celebrate my bf 40th birthday) - no one else to blame!!

I totally go through the same thing - I have lived with my boyfriend of 9 years...we have both been through bad divorces (cheated on) - I am totally faithful and decided after my father died of a sudden heart attack at age 67 this past August and also had adult onset diabetes and all the bad that goes with it, that it was…

I love Leslie's workout - I have her old VHS 1, 2 and 3 mile workout and upgraded to 2 of her DVD's - I'm up to doing 38 minutes (3 miles) and hoping to get up the 5 mile sooner than later...Also looking into buying more of her workouts. You can do as little and/or as much of the miles as you want. They are low impact, but…
-
My hairdresser and I already have planned that when I hit my BIG goal I will get my hair cut, colored and highlighted (the works) and she said she would charge me half price!! - other than that just being healthier and happier and doing many things I was too "afraid" or couldn't do because of my weight!!!
-
I literally only drink water - If I do have a soda or something else I do log it...but the kids have picked on me for years because they think it is weird that all I drink is ice water...what can I say :)
