i'm in. not one of the habits i struggle with alot as far as getting in my 8 glasses.but i STRUGGLE with choosing water over diet drink. once i start with diet drinks water goes by the wayside. b4 mfp - drinking THREE 1.5 liter bottles of diet peach tea in a day was not unusual for me. sometimes it seemed like the more i…

what should we choose as this weeks habit?

good morning ladies. started my day(after everyone left for school) with a yoga class. feeling good. hope it lasts for the rest of the day. does anyone want to do a weekly habit(ie 6 fruit/veggie a day) or a challange(?) with me? i am open to suggestions - i have alot of areas that need improvement and i am looking to…

good evening all. i can't complain about today. tomorrow going to try to include more veggies. what does bump mean?

check out a website called yoga today. it'sa great resource. some free classes and some classes you can pay for(not expensive) and download to ipod/computer. i am also just getting back into yoga. i've missed it more than i realized.

i ate myself sick today. argh!!!! i knew i wasn't going to feel well after i let myself eat all that food. where did my will power go? at least i stuck to my no food after 7pm rule. back to basics tomorrow. hope everyone had a more successful day than i did. good night all.

good morning all lettuce - glad to hear you and caden are on your feet again. amy - i hope your car is fixed. i know when i have no wheels it is like my life gets put on hold. stacy - i am a good cook, part of the problem. the weekend went pretty well except for exercise. i gave up my walk on saturday and went to visit my…

today was my usual friday morning weigh in. i can't believe i lost a pound this week. was very annoyed with myself about yesterday after having such a good few days before, but i am getting right back on the horse. partially motivated by the fact that i felt so sick later that night (monster headache/stomach issues). amy -…

hello all. boy did i drop my basket today. stressed i fell right back into old habits. 20 choclate kisses,a diet coke, and a 100 gram bag of cheetos (568 kcal and 36 grams of fat)later . i KNOW better. lo and behold it did not make my father in law'swife's liver cancer go away. i only ate 3 of 6 fruit/veggies today.…

good morning girls. lettuce how are you and caden feeling? i walked the dogs for twenty five min plus elliptical trainer for 25 min so i should not have a problem staying in my calorie limits today. ellitical really gets your heart pumping and burns those calories. later...

thanx for all the great suggestions

good morning ladies yesterday was a good day , 25 min on the elliptical trainer and walked the dogs 20 min. also ate well. trying to eat 6 fruits and veggies a day (not including juice), i ate 5. will try again today. letttuce i hope this post finds you and caden feeling better. g'day to all

thanx to everyone for all the great suggestions. i am going to try them all.

stacey way to go!!! great way to start the week. lettuce, how is caden feeling? Last week was so hectic i did not get to really push myself with the exercise(some walking and yoga), i did make fairly healthy food choices and managed to maintain. no complaints. besides having trouble picking up the pace after the lazy days…

hi girls, hope everyone had a good day yesterday. all kids are off at school today. i pushed through the morning chaos and was able to do 60 min yoga and 45 min walk. ate more than i should have for breakfast ( including 300 grams of tofu) but all healthy chioces. has any one heard of or read the book die fat or get fit by…

thanx amy, it took alot of will power/self control. unfortunetly i have not found the time to exercise today. i think once all the changes in the scheduales calm down and routine settles in you will be able to start a more regular exercise plan. i know for me this week is more catch as you can with exercising as the whole…

hi, hope everyyone is having a good day. things here have been very hectic. last two start school tomorrow. i was such a good girl at the buffet table last night. followed my plan except for three bites of a peice of bluberry buckle cake.

lettuce - so glad to here caden is on the mend. starre - do not get discouraged. if you continue to exercise and stay in your calorie limit you will lose weight. i have a bar mitzvah tonight. The plan is to fill my plate with three quarters veggies one quarter what ever i want. two rules 1.absolutely nothing deep fried…

me too. except i'm a salty, crunchy girl. have i mentioned CHEETOS. i can not keep them in the house. and i talk myself out of them every time i go to the market. starre - knowing someone is waiting for you at the corner definitely get you out of the house for a walk. my cousin and i used to meet at 5:45am 4/week at the…

Good evening ladies. lettuce, wow, when it rains it pours. glad to hear the meds are kicking in. hopefully this will be the turning point. my prayers are with him for a fast and full recovery . when a child is sick imho it is perfectly ok to focus your attention on soothing them and helping them recover. no guilt. give…

stacey - i like the read idea. i can even carry a book with me. i always consider reading a weekend/b4 bedtime thing but why not try it to relieve tension. it's one of my favorite pastimes and it definitely absorbs and relaxs me. instead of marching myself to the kitchen , curl up into a book for 15 minutes. side note -…

welcome starrenight. firstly this site is great at keeping you on the straight and narrow. i am also an emotional eater. those moments include when i am upset, frustrated, tense, bored, having a good time/celebrating, procratinating.... i am a yo-yo dieter. i have gained and lost the same thirty pounds 5 times. this is my…

lettuce - wishing your little one a full and speedy recovery. yankeefamily05- my naturally thin sister-in-law eats pizza all the time, gives it no thought. one catch she is full after one slice. stacey - adorable dog. good luck finding her a home. beagles are a very,very high energy dog, i think they need a good hour to…

good morning ladies welcome to all who are new here. yesterday was an excellent food day in terms of calories and health. this morning woke up and took the dogs on 1 hour walk. i am going to miss the luxury of waking up and thinking of myself first. on the other hand i will be able to hit the gym more with the kids in…

hi ladies, today is going fairly well in the food and exercise dept. once again woke up and took the dogs on a 50 min walk. of course now that this scheduale is working i will have to revamp it starting monday. stacey - thank you. peanut butter does the trick. great tip. i'll check in later....

stacey - i will try the peanut butter trick tomorrow, thanx. lettuce - rant away. better than eating your frustration. i totally get the smart kid but lazy with no direction problem. i don't really have any advice just patience and gentle guidance which seems to be the path you are on. it is hard with the kids today i see…
