I had an awesome spin yesterday! I actually did all of the standing climbs. Excited! I am going to try to get 3 spinning classes in and then to PiYo in between because I really need work on my core and lack of flexibility. lol

Jeesh! Balance walker.. my apologies... I figured out how to get my name out of the gray.... I guess I should read and not scan! thanks!

I'm trying to do the count the calories and keep it clean eating. Jeesh! Some days are harder than others! I need to keep nailing my calories and get my buns moving!

I have had a week.... WHEW! Sticking good on the calories and even enjoyed 1/2 of a small thickburger... and 6 French fries. lol Yep. Then I ate a salad. *sigh* But that half burger was da bomb! I haven't been able to spin at all this week. I don't know what the heck I did or even how I did it... but I fired up my good o'…

I have been stuck it seems like forever, but I finally can record a one pound loss! I adjusted my calorie intake down and bumped up my exercise.... I start getting on a roll and then WHEW what a week! :) Sticking good on the calories and even enjoyed 1/2 of a small thickburger... and 6 French fries. lol Yep. Then I ate a…

I don't think I have the cuhoynas to do the spin class tonight. I think I am going to do my rolling hills through Montana on the stationary bike. LOL I read this article somewhere about motivation and working out.. you know, blabbity, blab, blab, blab... but one sentence stuck with me. "Work out every single Monday". Well…

I'm in! I weigh myself all the time. :) I know I probably shouldn't but it's like sticker shock to me when I know I made some bad choices... the damage I see on the scale keeps me honest. :D I think it's great!

C'mon Julia!!! You got this! I'm with you on the crowds Kris. I hope mom and I can get in and out quick! My oldest son, Aarron has decided to join us for dinner. YAY! I did the spinning cycle last night. Holy Moly! Yowsa what a ride! I started out with all this gusto, cuz I have been doing amazing on the stationary bike,…

I am down another pound this morning! I have officially broken into the 160s and am sitting firmly at 168.5. YAY! Gonna keep up with my spinning… it is making that scale move down! I don’t have to worry too much about V Day. My hubby works so I won’t even see him. I even picked up the Saturday shift at my PT job. Will get…

So I have been getting my buns to the gym this week... and i am actually going to try a virtual spin class today. I have been doing some really neat interactive rides on the stationary bike,,, but I have been eyeballing the spin cycles. Wish me luck!

I can help... not sure what you need me to do.. I like being a co-leader and helping with whatever I can! Just let me know!

Hi Christine! Glad to hear from you! We have all had our ups and downs... at least you have recognized it and you are right.... time to refocus, get your head in the game, and make it happen! I know you can do it! :)

Good Job J!!!! Eating is the worse but it can be done with less damage! :-)

Yes Yes and Yes! I am proud of that! I log absolutely everything that goes over the lips and into the belly! Some days it is truly frightening...but I figure I ate it so I log it!

I was down to 170 when I weight in this morning! Yes! I have learned to accept a lot of the pitfalls but this group keeps me determined to keep going! I keep trying every day to better than the last one!

I feel the same way kris. I have improved my habits as far as exercise . planning ahead , and forgiving myself! I feel like I should have better numbers because I have been getting work outs in but I also know I have made some bad choices with eating out. Arrgghhhh

Well... I blew the weigh in .... again. UGH! My scale goes up and down a matter of 2 pounds over night... so I know it is sodium issue related, but it is making me nuts! I am going to get more miles logged in this week! My miles look pretty good but they aren't good enough when I keep going up and down on the scale like…

Kris: At least you got some kind of work out in! Anything is better than Nothing! I am laughing at the visual of your matching bruises. lol You sound like you just need to relax and no mindless munching! :) Julia: keep on moving! I like the saying... no matter how slow you go, you are still lapping the person sitting on…

Good Monday Morning everyone! I hope everyone did well over the weekend! I find by logging in on the weekends I am more conscious of what I am eating. I always used to blow off counting my calories on Sat/Sun... well now that I am logging every day no matter what day it is, it keeps me honest! A new challenge week has…

Why is it we have a weigh in, I log my weight, the next day i drop 2 pounds???? UGH! Oh well.. if I keep this off for this next weigh in I will be happy, happy, happy! I am sooo glad you are back kris! Keep working on getting healthier and stronger! When I have Chinese I always go for pure protein and veggies. Nothing…

Just logged my weigh in on the spreadsheet! Let's go Team! We are a team of 4, the smallest group in the challenge. This really motivates me to push harder... I don't want to let you down! Keep on Moving!

My bad... weigh ins are the 21st. Doh! I guess I am excited to see the results... and who gets excited about weighing in???? lol Have a great day!

Don't forget weigh ins are tomorrow! If you can't find the spreadsheet, send me a quick message and I can send you the link. I am afraid I have not done very well this week. Ugh! I am counting on the rest of you represent the Clean Eating team! You can do it!!! Keep on moving!

My goals for the day are to get my head back in the game and buckle down! Other goals are to track everything, prepare meal plan for the week, and get some movement in today and tomorrow!

No, No, No. :-(

Okay everyone... not sure how but I am on the wrong weigh in spreadsheet. Gee Whiz! I wondered why I couldn't see anyone else's numbers. :\

Not sure how I missed our second weigh in! Ugh! My apologies everyone! A BIG congrats to all of those that lost last week! let's keep it going this week!

We have a list of foods that are to never come back in the house again for the same reason! LOL I am addicted to Salt and Vinegar chips. This bag of evil has been banned because I know when I open it, it is gone. B)

One of the tips I have found that really do help is the meal planning. We have all heard about it,,,but it seriously does help when you know what you are having the day ahead. My main focus is on breakfast and lunch. It is soooo easy to grab fast food because it is quick and convenient. Well if you are anything like me…

I'm in for the sequel!
