Hopefully, this weekend shouldn't be too hard for me. DF is working and I don't really have much planned. Hopefully, I can drop a couple lbs. this week if I work really hard. I'm feeling pretty good about it today, we'll see what I have to say on Monday.

Happy Friday Morning! June 1: 162 June 4: 160.2 I have done really well food and exercise-wise for the last couple of days. Yesterday, I went for a power walk with my 16 mo. old in the stroller. According to my new HRM I only burnt 268 cals, But it was sooooo hot and humid out I was sweating my butt off! DF was not very…

When my dd was around that age she got sick and would not eat anything for a week. I fed her anything she WOULD eat. We don't eat poptarts so she has never had one of those. Anyway, since that time she has never eaten her veggies like she used to. I swear she learned to be picky at that time. I agree with pp that maybe you…

This month I NEED to stop thinking I can eat whatever on the weekends! I do great all week and totally blow it on the weekend! I need to be meticulous about logging everything I eat. When I don't, then I tend to overeat. This month I am adding a treadmill workout to my usual workouts. I do a lot of DVD exercising, but I…

I'm in! May didn't end so hot! June 1: 162

Since this is the last day of the month I thought I should check in. I was down to 160.2 (160 was my May goal) on Friday. Then, the holiday weekend got to me. This morning I feel all fat and bloaty and I weighed in at 161.6. I REALLY want to make the 5 lb. a month goal because I am getting married in October. I guess I…

I use aerobics, low impact or aerobics, general. Not sure if this is right but its been working for me. I don't do Slim in 6 everyday, but I use the videos as part of my exercise routine.

I'm getting a HRM this weekend. Which ones do you LOVE? I need suggestions because I have NO idea which one to get!

May 1: 165 May 7: 164 May 14: 161.6 May 21: 162.2 May 28: 160.6 Happy Friday Morning! I have REALLY been struggling the last couple of weeks! I am having a hard time getting my exercise in and eating right. I am close to my 5 lb. goal for the month so hopefully, I can lose that .6 in the next couple of days. :smile:…

Happy Friday Morning to all! May 1: 165 May 7: 164 May 14: 161.6 May 21: 162.2, :grumble: Well, I know what happened this week and it was all my fault. Oh well! I still have 10 days to drop 2 lbs. I can totally do this! Hope everyone has a GREAT and healthy weekend!

I decided to try something different today and really watch what I eat and not exercise hard. I can't say I did nothing because I have a toddler to chase all day. It was nice out so we spent a good deal of time outside. I planted my flowers that my brother gave me on Mother's Day. :smile: Hopefully, I can keep it alive! I…

Oh, why do I sabotage myself? I start feeling good about what I'm doing and then I go and have a chocolate binge! For some reason, I always want to have a late afternoon sugar binge. Why do I do this? Suggestions for what I can do about it? Anyway, I ate a lot of calories, but I burned a lot of calories too, per MFP.…

Happy Monday Evening! My weekend was not so great again, so I picked myself back up today and started over. I did get good workouts in the last 3 days so I am feeling pretty sore today. May just do something light tomorrow. We'll see how I feel in the morning. I REALLY want a HRM so I can see how many calories I actually…

Happy Friday morning to all! May 1: 165 May 7: 164 May 14: 161.6, :bigsmile: I am VERY happy with my number because I had a pretty bad week food and exercise-wise. I'm not sure how this happened but I'll take it!!!! Maybe I'll reach that 5 lbs before the end of May! Its gonna be close! The plan for this week is to eat…

Hello all! I had another good day! Today was easy and for some reason I really wasn't very hungry. Normally, I'm always hungry and watching the clock for the next time I can eat. Anyway, I was under my calories for the day, drank a ton of water, and got in a good workout. The plan for tomorrow: keep up the momentum and do…

I'm doing much better today! Got my workout in first thing this morning, only went over my calories by 54, and drank a lot of water. I ALREADY feel better! I didn't get a walk in after dinner last night like i wanted to, because it was raining. Tomorrow, my plan is to continue eating healthy, exercise for at least 45 min,…

Confession time. I, too, have been doing HORRIBLE this week. It is TOM and I haven't worked out in 5 days! I wanted to this morning but the time never allowed for it. I guess I will take the baby for a walk after we eat dinner. I am just gonna hope I didn't gain any this week and do that u-turn starting now!!!

May 1 weight: 165 May 7 weight: 164 :happy: Officially overweight and NOT obese! :bigsmile: :bigsmile: My week definitely could have been better! I had Pizza Hut 2 nights ago for dinner and I ate 2.5 pieces. It tasted soooo good, tho! I don't eat stuff like that normally so I don't really feel too bad. I still lost 1 lb…

Okay, I posted that I'd join but haven't posted again. I just got through all the posts! This group is pretty active! Exactly what I need to keep me motivated. Anyway, I am a stay-at-home-mom for now. I have a 15 mo. baby girl who keeps me pretty busy. I am considering finding a part-time job soon, tho. When I joined MFP I…

I'm in! I've been avg. about that anyway so here goes. Excited to be part of a group. Been doing this alone so far! SW: 187 CW: 165 CGW: 160

bumping for some answers

I know I have been MIA but I haven't done very well eating this week. When I weighed in on Monday I was down 2 lbs. YAY! It will be TOM any time now and I have been having cravings and munchies all week. UGH!!! Stupid hormones! Today I did great calorie-wise and I have still been working out all week. Kristen- Is the 30…

Hurley- WOW!!! Glad you are feeling better! Karebear- Sorry you are sick! Seems like everyone is, right now. Dartboard- I broke my toe this past summer and had to have a pin put in it. I was non-weight bearing for 6 weeks. It was absolutely awful! My baby was just 4 months then and taking care of her was very challenging!…

I am doing pretty good, still. I did have cracker barrel and pizza hut yesterday but I don't think I went over my calories. I think somebody else should start the challenges and post our stats. I don't know where Hurley went but until she comes back maybe somebody else can take care of it???

I am sooo hungry today!!! Why?? I don't know? I didn't even workout. Taking a day off because I am feeling pretty sore and icky today. Anyway, gotta make this short because I've still got stuff to do tonight.

Good Morning! I weighed in this morning and am still sitting at 180. No weight lost in 3 weeks. :frown: I did however measure and have lost 4 inches!:smile: I've never plateaued so early while dieting. Oh well, my clothes fit a little better, so I'm happy. I feel like I'm getting a cold or my allergies are acting up. My…

I did a Fantastic job yesterday! I burned 500 cals working out and stayed within my calorie range! YAY!!! Lets see if I can do it again today? I have to go shopping for a coat for my baby girl, have to get a new scale battery, and I have to go get formula. Busy, busy and its COLD outside! I would rather stay home!

I am still here. I haven't been doing so great with food, so I may be up a couple of pounds. I need a new battery in my scale and I keep forgetting while I am out. I have still been exercising. I want to do better this week. Congrats to everyone who lost this week!

Good Morning! I am doing pretty good with eating and exercising the last few days. I mostly do exercise DVD's for now...can't afford a gym membership:( I have Walk Away the Pounds 1, 2, & 3 mile workouts, Slim in Six, Biggest Loser Weight Loss Yoga, & Windsor Pilates. I also have a Gazelle Edge that I use about 2x a week,…

Good Morning Yellow Team! I weighed in this morning and I am still at 180. No weight lost this week, but no gain either. I am gonna try really hard this week to not go over on my calories. I have a ton of stuff to get done today. My mom is finally back in town so I can get back to my normal schedule. Kristen- my little…
