I would love to join you. I am just back from a long, I mean looong break. But this is just what I need to stay motivated.

I will go to the gym

megblackburn- where in Washington are you? I think you mentioned it before but it went right over my head. I am just north of Seattle most of the time but a lot of my weekends are spent on the Kitsap penninsula at our future retirement home. Welcome to all the new faces. I will admit that for the last week I have been a…

Wow, I go away for a long weekend and come back to lots of new faces. I will read back to catch up in just a bit, but welcome to all the new faces. My push up challenge is going well. I initial test was 16 and while a bit sore I am doing okay and improving daily. I am struggling with week 5 on my c25k though. The first day…

janetay- rhubarb pie one of my favorites. When I was a kid my mom would make an upside-down rhubarb cake that was also delicious. I am sure neither is very diet friendly but yumm.
-
megblackburn- yes I set monthly (sometimes longer, sometimes shorter) goals for myself. Are you using the 100 push-ups website for this goal? I don't remember the name of it but it also has crunches and squats? I will join you in this one as I am sure that it will really work my core which in fact was my goal for this…

Good morning! I just realized that in all my rushing around yesterday I didn’t check in. Yesterday was crazy busy and I made good healthy choices until the chocolate cake jumped in my grocery cart last night. I did eat only 1 piece and brought the rest of it to work today. I got in a walk already this morning as the…

I lost 47 pounds.

It will come off. Unfortunately we don't get to choose where we lose it first.

Tinks_13 – Welcome and I don’t know of anything other than water really to help with the bloated feeling other than drinking water. I usually drink extra water and then go for a nice walk. It doesn’t help right away but it does eventually. Jehan – I can see how your hubby’s attitude may have affected your choices. I find…

Good morning everyone. I had an excellent day yesterday and went over my 1000 calorie burn goal by quite a bit. Now, the decision is what to do today to reach it. It is rainy so a bike ride is probably not going to happen today either. :sad: I have tons of laundry to do so I am trying to think high burn in shorter time,…

tnsumner- yummmm tacos in lettuce sounds really good. janetay- it is amazing how many calories just two little chocolate bites can have in them isn't it. I agree you will be better able to resist next time. Good morning everyone. I woke up this morning and made my way to the gym and did my c25k run for today and then hit…

I did it at 5'2" and 230. Yes its was hard (its suppose to be hard). Yes at first I had to modify some of the exercises (especially the jumping stuff and push up exercises). Yes at the end of the 9 weeks I was still obese. BUT at the end of the 9 weeks, I could do all of the exercises (maybe not as fast as some of the…

Hello and happy Friday everyone! It is another beautiful day here in Seattle. I hear the weatherman saying it won't last through the weekend. Bummer! I would rather ride my bike outside but I will go to the gym to get my calorie burn in if I have to. My goal for this weekend is to burn 1000 calories each day. I will be…

evdjohnson- I saw that video just this week. I was moved by it as well. My neighbor gushed over the cupcake! I was pleased that I didn't eat it but I was very pleased (and a little suprised) when I realized that I honestly didn't even want it. I guess my mentality is finally changing.
-
Good moring everyone! evdjohnson- I would have sent the cupcake to you but after you little binge today I am glad I didn’t. It looks like your damage control (Zumba) this afternoon was helpful though. megblackburn- I hate that numb feeling! jehan- sometimes people (even family members) are just rude. You show them that you…
-
Good afternoon. tnsumner– no I haven’t done any Jillian Michaels DVD. I might like to try tsome of them though. jehan- yoga is good for you too don’t worry about missing a run and great job avoiding the junk at the grocery store. Live4More- day 2 on the restart, good for you. Before you know it you will be so far into it…

tnsumner- I am sure you will get into your second choice. ron2e- gee I see what a hardship you are having there. penny_eclipse- great job with the running last week. mjharman- sorry to hear about your blisters. Definitely let them heal before your 5k. megblackburn- sounds like you had a great evening. Welcome to all the…
-
evdjohnson- yes there are tons of places to hike within an hour or less of Seattle. It is great because you can do some nice easy flat hiking or climb a darn mountain if you want to. stepahniezoundi- sometimes we fall off the wagon but as long as weget right back on you things will be okay. debbiewillers- sorry to hear you…

Debbiewillers- brrr 28 degrees is cold, you go girl Ronelle- welcome, I have only been on this thread a few days and feel like these folks are very supportive. Mjharman- nicely done, staying away from the…

Good afternoon, I am just getting ready to leave work and head out to do the public speaking. I did just find out that there will only be a couple hundred people in the room and the rest will be seeing it via a video link. Ahhhhh! I feel so much better about that. mjharman- you can be strong! Stay away from the chocolate…

Good morning everyone. I am a little excited and nervous today as I am speaking at a meeting for the ACS Relay for Life this evening. I so hate public speaking and I am not good at it at all. Usually when I get stressed I eat but today I have packed my meals and snacks and am taking them with me. Unfortunately no trip to…

Hi everyone. I just came across this thread and saw how supportive you all are of each other. I would love to join you in support and encouragement. My name is Staci and I have lost about 26 pounds so far but still have over 100 to go. I am a nearly empty nester as my youngest or four is 18 and at a local community college…

Number 4 definitely number 4.

I made this last weekend after seeing the recipe here. I thought it was good. But what was even better is that my family LOVED it. It is definitely on the "make again" list at my house.

I did the breast cancer 3 day walk twice, the american cancer society relay for life twice (both times walking more than 20 miles) and finished the warrior dash all at 200+ pounds.
