Well I fell off the eating wagon and disappeared. My date is now set for August 31st! Venue booked so no more excuses! Signing up for a gym today as the at home workouts don't happen with 4 kids. So hopefully if I HAVE tob e somewhere I can make it work. I'm also going to vegetables and protein only no grains or sugar…

Well ladies, my Abuela (grammie of 96) just got out of the hospital and is going into hospice care. I've been going back and forth on this...and have decided to take a road trip to go see her immediately! So wish me luck on the restaurant trip of being strong with my food choices! I may not be logged on for the next 3-4…

I'm starting to slip and need a boost or something. i gave into fondue and bread bites last friday and then last night, tater tots! Ack! My 19yo was so cute we went to breakfast Sunday and I started to eat my toast she took it out of my hand and said "uhh no, I've seen you thin you look great I'll help you get there again"…

Sure thing partonsara! It'll be under the Ultimate Losers Group I'll invite you to the group right now. :)

Wow! Great job! Keep it up! Even if you log not all great stuff logging is the best part as it helps us see what we're eating and makes us think twice or at least it does for me. You can do it! Thanks for posting!

Well what a busy weekend. However I managed to stay on or below calorie levels. So that was wonderful. I'm trying to hold of a weight in until the week before Easter probably that Monday. Then see how well I've been doing. HOPEFULLY downa nother couple pounds! :) Congrats on the weight loss. I'm late to bed so quick post…

Hello Ladies, Just wanted to make sure that anyone still interested can just hit me up and I'll invite you to the group area where we're working on our summer challenge. I hope you are all doing great!

Hey ladies, So glad this made it easier for you, definitely easier to find for me too! Wendy, so you're in the Uk? I have a coworker that I work with daily in the UK. You can keep me posted on Holidays so I know when he'll be in the office! ;) It's fun losing with kids. I agree with MuddyEvil I think it was that said…

I have a mini goal of losing 9lbs by Good Friday, and then as a reward a new sundress (I have a mini trip that weekend). I'm happy to set an April goal of 10lbs from my current weight with a weigh in on April 30lbs. That may be pushing it for me though. I'll try. Monday I weighted in at 210. So here goes for April 30th…

Wow it sounds like you have an amazing mom and amazing mom/daughter relationship! That's so awesome! You're both encouraging some great fitness with each other. Great accountability! I think I'll try that with my 19year old! Thanks!!!

Oh that's great! One nutrition class I took said only weight in every 6 weeks, because the little fluctuations could be very frustrating and even discouraging. So I shall cheer you on! In fact since you're doing that I'll not weigh in until my first mini goal which is Good Friday (the day I buy my reward sundress hehe).

I've invited you all to the Ultimate Losers group and there is a summer challenge under there. :) I'll of course keep checking on this, incase new people want to continue to join us. :) Have a great Tuesday!

Ladies if it would be easier for all. I know it would for me. lol. I do have a Group I started a year ago that wasn't really used. I have just updated it. We can start to migrate over there, so we don't have to "scroll" through the message boards. Whatever you feel is easier. The group name is: The Ultimate LOSErs Summer…

I'm with this lady. I am 5'8" and 5 years ago I lost 65 pounds and got down to 165 and I felt and looked great. I still felt I could lose another 10-15 though. So my goal was to get to 150-155, but then I had another munchkin. So back where I started 5 years ago lol. My goal again is 165 to start for a wedding dress! :)…

Hello ladies, I really feel that the first couple weeks of the weight loss journey are always the toughest. So way to go on pushing through! :) I lost 9lbs, but that was my very first week, I'd love to drop weight that fast, it's typically the diet change not just eating whatever and more water that causes that first drop.…

Come on in, we welcome anyone wanting to lose weight! :) Or get healthy!

OH yes snacks! Make it several little meals instead of a big one at 2:30 when you're starving. So I keep fruit cups in my cabinet at work. They are $3 for 4-6 depending on the one you get. Thats a good 4 days worth, well I have one in the morning and one in the afternoon. I also keep plain cheerios at hand as they have…

Week 1 of the Summer Challenge is coming to an end. How's everyone doing? I had a really horrible day at work today, instead of turning to my typical stress eating, I managed to have a great lunch with some work ladies. Full of laughter. We ate vegetarian, and I really made my way through it! At dinner with my boyfriend I…

Oh ladies you must share about the bridesmaid dresses I havne't even started looking at those yet. I just got the wedding dress this week. I hope I'm not too far behind because our tentative date is August 31st!

Oh we're at the same weight with the same goal! We can be each others motivation. My goal is 165 by August 31st! It's a stretch but I'm going to PUSH For it!

Okay so I'm on day 4, and day 1 was PHENOMENAL, day 2 it was okay because we had a kickoff meal, day 3, I had a vacation day, I MUST plan for my vacation days better, although not horrible, too much cheese! Cheese in the omelet, cheese on the salad, and cheese on my air popped popcorn! lol. Today starting off right an egg,…

Hey J girlfriend! Okay so why don't you try and lose 8 lbs with me by easter!!! I can text ya daily muhahaha! It'll also help me! Today I had a vegetable breakfast a salad for lunch and ...uhhh popcorn for dinner lol. airpopped with shredded cheddar! I need to go calculate those calories out. I think I did just fine. I…

You look awesome in that pic, gosh I think it was Curly. Hope I get the name right. My daughter, who's 19 says the best way to get toned is Pilates. She said it'll kick your bootie, you'll feel super sore the first few weeks, but then you'll feel so great and super toned. She said she had a great butt afterwards lol. She…

Awesome! Welcome to the board. :) Not really sure how to do a group yet. So I figured I'd start here...maybe we can move to a group later. :) Happy to lose weight with ya! :happy:

So update on me, I did a phenomenal job tracking my calories today. My only slip up was that my girlfriend and I decided to have a one last hooray meal, but not too wild. so we had salad with a chicken breast, but it was the margarita hooray that was the most calories and of course the bread. Then we both agreed we would…

Hello "LosingItNow78" Oh it's super easy, it's mainly about accountability and if you need weight loss tips or advice or even want to share. I used to for a short period of time lead a nutrition class. That nutrition class helped me to lose the first 65lbs I lost. Then I stopped leading had a baby and gained it all back.…

Hello Elizabeth Marjorie, What a beautiful name! Oh going from 177 to 150 isn't that big of a jump, but the easiest way to think of this is as baby steps. ;) That's why I'm setting mini goals. Feel free to set one for yourself as well, but make sure at your mini goal you also have a mini reward. Whatever you feel would…

Hey there, it really helps to have the accountability of others. OH a LOT it helps!!! ;) Another thing is of course the wonderful calorie tracking! ;) Yeah I really think the one thing that helped me be a success with my weight loss was my regular meeting on nutrition I had on tuesdays way back. Which is why I plan on…

Well til any groupies join me, I'll just post doing good! I came back from lunch which was just a small baked potato with some leftover healthy spaghetti sauce on it, it was thick. Kind of like chili on a potato. Anyway I had a sweet tooth and panicked! So I thankfully had a fruit stash: Applesauce Cup, raisins, mandarin…

I'm not new to MyFitnessPal, but am super eager to get a challenge going and on track for my journey. Would you like to do the same?
