I am in the same boat - was doing awesome and then - bam - 3 weeks go by and i have not been doing what i was supposed to be doing - however, i made a mental decision that i was going to get back on the horse today. every day is a new day and the fact that you are ready to move forward is fantastic - rock on! :wink:

SW: 183 CW: 183 :cry: will have to try harder this week......

i am sure the meds and the stress are a huge factor - i actually have a flutter and murmur but the flutter only comes around when i am super stressed. my heart skips beats and throws in extras all the time, but, like i said, only really when i was really stressed. if you can find out about your new insurance with the…

does your new job's insurance cover pre-existing conditions? any lapse in insurance over 60 days will flag a pre-existing conditon for which you sought treatment/medical advice/or were diagnosed. i would check on that 1st, just to be on the safe side. if it will not cover pre-ex, then def sign up for the cobra - (also, if…

mmmmm - yum - sounds delish!:tongue:

Starting weight 183:heart:

Awesome! Looking forward to my skin shrinking too (esp since i had 2 in there at a time!) That is great news - keep up the good work!

that looks excellent - can't wait to try it!!!:tongue:

Twin skin! nice! i have 18 month old girls, that were born at 32 weeks - we have even more in common!

you can also squeeze your bum (like the ab thing) and that helps to tone the tush!

I drink the Mix1 protein shakes, they come in mix berry, mango and blueberry vanilla. They smell good and taste pretty good - no gagging here!

BRILE - that would be awfully mean of me putting that out there!!! :happy: I just have yet to upload an actual pic - too funny!

mmmm - that shaken green tea sounds pretty good! I think i'll try that one, too! as for your question - i would think its the same amount of tea, just more diluted, right?

Hi everyone - thanks for the tips! As for what i was looking to get out of it, i was thinking metabolism boost, but, mostly because i didnt know about the antioxident values.... i am a new one with the tea party!

Don't starve yourself, that will hurt more than help. Try to find some good low cal options for rest of the day and just tell yourself you will try harder tomorrow. Every day is a new day.:smile:

Hi Kim! My name is Kim, too, I just joined this week and I have very similar goals! Here's to us!!!

I was also a non-breakfast-eater, and have turned to protein shakes - not the yucky powdery ones, but there are some good ones by Mix 1 - with good fruity flavors. I am not hungry in the morning either, but this just feels like a drink, and is helping by kick-starting my metabolism for the day....

What about light snacking in between meals with low cal foods like grapes or an apple? i like to spread my foods out as much as possible throughout the day to ease the hunger....
