Question of the Day: When do you feel the most vulnerable? When I go shopping for clothes :frown: I look in the mirror at home naked I think Iook ok... not perfect but shapely but as soon as I go trying on clothes I look like a beach whale....

Question of the Day: When you hit your goal weight....what is the first article of new clothing you are going to buy? A lil black sexy dress made of strectchy lycra-ish material....and hopefully I can wear it without looking 6 months pregnant. Currently I shun body fitting anything and jackets are my friend...

How do you try to balance your everyday life with your new healthier lifestyle? What struggles do you have? What works for you? Before August I fit my exercise in right after I get home from work and stretch early in the monring when I wake. The cafeteria when I was dieting so the lady there always made sure she did…

I had a pretty good weekend....was busy finishing some reports but I found time to do some stuff with the kids.. My weight havent changed still 180lb.

You've done an awesome job.....you are one hott granny :flowerforyou:

Congrats to everyone that stuck it to the end......I see alot of you had some great results. Taralee and Smurfette you guys look awesome...:flowerforyou:

Question of the Day: In your journey of weight loss and adapting a healthier lifestyle, do you feel that a lot of the previous yo-yoing was due to your own self-image or feeling like you didn't "deserve" this? Interesting Question, truth is my self esteem was as its lowest when I was in my 20s and half this size so for me…

LW: 179 CW: 180 (I'm actually happy because TOM is here and I only gained 1 pound woo hoo) But I have gained inches in the tummy and boob area which is expected I guess...As for this weeks work out I am kinda afraid to put up a schedule especially with my current track record. So I'll attempt to do Zumba at least 3 times…

Highs: Its Friday :tongue: Lows: TOMs in town and I have the munchies

So happy that you guys have stuck with it.....cant wait to see the progress pics

QOD: What is your "go to" or fun workout. I would have to say ZUMBA....I love to dance and if I'm not in the mood I just put in a Zumba DVD even if I start off with small movements after a couple of minutes I'm shaking my thing all out lol....By the end of the workout I feel great

I'm a rectangle yep definitely an apple

QOD: If I could have any job in the world and still make good paper I would definitely teach... I love interacting with little kids they are so amazing.

LW: 182 CW: 179 QOD: MY favorite clean meal is steam flying fish....

Highs: I've consumed approx 1200 calories give or take 20 every day this week...I'm also doing alot better water wise and the bloating is reducing Lows: I've only managed to work out 1X this week. Hopefully I can exercise more over the weekend to make its at least 3 times before weigh in on Monday... I'm eating at some odd…

My greatest triumph or accomplishment in my journey so far: Being more consciou of what I eat and drink. Not giving up even though this has been a long journey for me.

My favourite quote is "today is a new day"....I use to get all bogged down in the past and this really gives me perspective to just keep going even when everything went wrong yesterday

You look amazing...great job!!!

I've totally messed up this challenge....so instead of trying to catch up I'm going back to basics.....no more challenges for me until I get my workout routine back in gear...I wish all you ladies all the best and I'll keep checking in on you guys

LW: 180 CW: 182 Am I happy with the weight gain over the past few weeks nope...but I must say that whilst having my breakdown this morning the tape measure was my saving grace...I lost 1 " on my waist and 2" on my hips and bust.... QOD: Over the past couple of months it has been a hard transition for me...having a new job…

Very useful tips....

Highs: I managed to get back into my water habit as promised...I didnt reach 10 glasses everyday but on most day I was over 8.. Lows: I was at a conference this week at the Hilton which included lunch and coffee breaks and too many **** tail receptions....I really tried to eat healthy lots of salads and water but the…

My AHA moment this time around was last April when I saw some pictures of myself when a friend came to visit. She is very slim and standing next to her I looked like baby whale :ohwell:

Topic of the Day: Triggers! I am a firm believer that most people have triggers that send them into eating things they know they shouldn't. Share some of your triggers and tell me what you do or are currently doing to keep them at bay. Also tell us a little about your week so far...how has it been? Anything new and…

You do look sexy...great job

I personally have no issue with it but from my experience the pills always seem to work only for a little while and you still have to make that concerted effort to change for healthier habits... as for surgery I would wish if persons could do it the long way because of all the side effects but for some that is a hard pill…

LW: 180 CW: 180 I am so dissapoindted with how the past 2 weeks have gone...yes I know TOM was in town but my diet and water were both out of wack and as a result I've gained weight and it doesnt seem to be going away now TOM is over. QOD: This week is going to be ridiculous I cant even begin to explain. I have a…

Highs: making the time to exercise Lows: getting sick and gaining weight...yeah I know its TOM but still seeing the scale hit 180 again after all this time was hard for me

So now that I've finally goteen in an exercise grove.....I am sick with a sinus infection :ohwell: I feel like I cant catch a break you know
