Hello! I hope everyone's week is off to a good start! Cait- yep I'm down to 68 days until the wedding! crazy. Good luck with all of your planning! And I like your goal of checking in here more often. I definitely need to do the same to stay accountable! I really let it slip this month. Good luck! rai- great job on your…

Well as I said in some of my previous posts March was not my best month. Let's just leave it at that. :) I didn't gain any weight though which I'm grateful for. I only lost maybe a pound- but when I think back to how crazy this month has been I should be grateful for even a one pound loss. Now that I've started that…

Hey everyone! Sooo I've been MIA lately. Missed my first days ever logging in since I started MFP. When I first joined I thought it'd be so easy to log in every day and keep up with it all the time. I couldn't even imagine how people forgot about it or fell off the wagon. Well, now I know. This month has been so crazy..and…

Hey everyone! I'm so behind...I can't even begin to catch up with all of you individually right now but just know that I'm still here! Keep up the awesomeness! My own level of awesomeness hasn't been that.. well, awesome lately. I only worked out once this week...and you can barely call that a work out. ugh ugh UGH. And my…

Hey everyone! Ok I was definitely MIA this month on the boards-- sorry, I've missed you all! I've still been keeping up with MFP as far as trying to stick to my goals and track my calories I have just been SLAMMED lately with wedding and school stuff. Ahh I definitely need a break soon! Luckily spring break is in less than…

This thread takes off so fast! I'm trying to keep up but this is just a quick post! So far, this month is off to a good start! I've been to the gym every day this week except Monday. I took it kind of easy on my workout today because I was feeling off today. I think it had something to do with the weather. :ohwell: My ears…

Overall I'm fairly satisfied with my goals. I've already had my "I'm working hard and the scale's not moving" rant so I'm moving past that. My goal was to lose 4 pounds but I only lost about 2.5 in January. Not exactly thrilled with that but maybe the pounds will come off faster in February and I'll break the plateau. I…

yes that's definitely normal! I wouldn't worry about that at all. :)

Thank you all for the encouraging words! I truly appreciate it! I will definitely be getting on the wedding dress shopping SOON. And if/when.. (probably when) I freak out about the next thing I'm glad I can turn to you guys for advice. :) But once again I'm up far too late and have a busy day tomorrow. I wish I had time to…

hey everyone! I haven't posted here in a while... this thread takes off so quickly it's hard to keep up! I just wanted to let all of you know that I have been trying to catch up as frequently as possible and you all are SO inspiring! This thread is awesome. I wish I had more time to catch up right now individually but I…

Meag- I totally agree on the fruit thing. People can be ridiculous about the whole "sugar thing." I personally love fruits-- I wish I loved vegetables just as much. :) I'm going to be working a LOT more this month on incorporating both fruits and veggies as snacks and into more of my meals too. Also, I know several of you…

Happy New Year, everyone! 2011 is going to be a great year! As far as my December goals, I aimed to lose 4 pounds but only lost about 3.2. I'm actually not too disappointed with that considering that means for the first time in a LONG time I lost weight over the crazy holidays. Not quite 4 pounds but I'm getting there! I…

I'm so behind on this thread! The past couple weeks have been full of craziness and distractions. First there was my birthday and all of the celebrations to follow. Final exam week was hell. Didn't get much exercise in at all. And I've been really sick the past few days. Probably a result of absolutely no sleep and not the…

So I didn't meet my goal of 5 pounds for November- I only lost 3--which is still progress. I would definitely say I exercised more this past month than I had been but I know I can do even better. It's the end of the school semester so after my exams I'll be heading home which means more temptation food wise but also no…

I'm sorry I've been MIA! Every time I look at this thread it takes me so long to catch up I never have time to reply! haha This is going to be really short but keep up the good work everyone! You are all very inspiring! Today...was not so great for me. Chocolate dipped pretzels. Baddd idea. : \ I'm going to do all I can…

I'm definitely in! My wedding is June 11, 2011 and I wanted to lose about 40 pounds. I don't know if I'll be able to lose all of it by then.. it feels like my progress is so much slower than most. And my wedding day is getting closer and closer! I haven't even begun to try on dresses yet... I'm too afraid to look at myself…

I am also working towards my wedding day so I'm definitely here for support! And I could use all the support I can get as well! My wedding is in June 2011.. actually in exactly 7 months. That sounds so soon.. not a lot of time to lose weight! I'm still fairly new to this site but it's great so far! It's an easy way to keep…

Keep up the good work, everyone!! I've been doing ok as far as my calorie goals but this week I need to make sure to set enough time aside for some good workouts outside of my usual walks or bike rides around campus. Tomorrow starts another new week!

I'm right there with you! We can do this! : )

Hey everyone! So I know we're already a few days in to November but I was hoping to jump on board! I'm pretty new to this site- only a couple weeks in and this is my first post. It looks like everyone is doing wonderfully and I admire you all for your commitment and motivation! I would say my biggest goal and motivation…
