It cut my babbling off hahaha... I ended with something likw, hopefully this new schedule and routine will do the trick for me! Unfortunately, I had already made obligations with my other job to work full time afternoon shifts... so now just for October, I'll be working BOTH jobs every day

I did actually manage to lose 6lbs somehow in Sept! Haha I started out strong, then got busy (excuses, I know) but I actually put in my notice to quit my job bc i couldn't take the stress & the ridiculous commute & not having enough time to better myself. Well I tried to quit anyway! LOL they actually reeled me back in…

My goal is to lose 6-8lbs by Halloween. It's going to be tough, my family is coming into town next week & we want to show them lots of cool places to eat & all the awesome breweries around here! Other then that, I'm going to be working A LOTTTTTT. Have overtime already scheduled every week. Hopefully I'll find enough time…

My start weight was 165. I weighed in this morning at 160.8. I hope to lose a total of 10lbs this month (2lbs/week). I keep losing during the week doing really well with eating & exercising, but then it (mostly) comes back after the weekends and I'm practically starting over every week

Hi KittyInBoots! Congrats on your loss! That's really awesome! I'm Stephanie, or Steph, and I've been on & off MFP for a few years. Every time I really use it, I definitely notice! I'm currently at the biggest I've ever been & I absolutely HATE it. I'm 31 & it really is harder to maintain & especially to lose weight! I'm…

I'm ready!

I also work in Healthcare, and it is SOO hard to stay on track & eat right. I have 2 jobs, working in CT & Mammography & my schedule is crazy! haha It's difficult to get a routine down, but I actually had the best routine ever while I was on midnights, it's just hard to get that initial motivation bc your body is so thrown…

Is there a group we could be in together to help motivate & support each other?

Hi! I'm 31 in NC. I weigh the most I've ever weighed & I'm completely disgusted by it! I HAVE to lose this weight... I want to feel good again! My goal is to lose about 30lbs. I'm only 5'2" so every pound shows. My husband can eat and eat and eat and never gains, he's nothing but muscle. I eat a fraction of what he eats &…

My start weight was 145 & my weigh in for This week is 141

Hi Everyone - Sorry I went MIA again... JUST finished school & moved to MI to be with the hubs again... It's been crazy! But I'm finally done with school & physically back with my hubby again =) He got orders for recruiting duty in MI & had to go without me so I could finish my school in NC. So now we're starting a new…

I'm a tart - I didn't even know about this extra topic for the challenges - I thought I just couldn't find them LoL :laugh: But I tagged it now so it's all good! :tongue:

Hello Everyone! I Thought my weigh in would be a little better - but I think some of it might be water retention too. =( myfitnesspal Start Weight: 152 Fab 4 Start Weight: 134 Last Week Weight: 133 Current Weight: 131.75 Lost 1.25 lb this week :blushing: Goal for 1-5-10: 127 End Goal Weight: 120 I really hope I can keep my…

Hey everyone! I have had a realllllly long day! I got up this morning, went to the gym (did cardio on my own, then had a training session that kicked my butt!, then did my EXTRA workout on my own) I was so proud of myself to keep going after my session, I usually just go home after =) Then after all that, I took my Husky…

Hey everyone! I did today's challenge - in addition to going to the gym & working out for an hour =) AND I ate well today! I'm super excited to keep my goals, I REALLY hope I can make it through the holidays without gaining! I'm such a sucker for food that looks/smells good - I want to try everything! lol I just really…

I saw in someone's post something about a water challenge? What was that - I have a hard time drinking all the water I need...

Hey Sam! You're not that far from us either =)

I've been in Newport for about 3 years now... It's ok =) I'm from NJ so moving down here was a HUGE culture shock for me haha

Yeah, the 24/7 gym is Snap Fitness. It looks cool - if I didn't have a contract with a trainer at Gold's I would switch to Snap in a heartbeat! I mostly use the gym for the weight stuff & other equipment (not usually cardio), but I prefer to walk/jog my dog around my neighborhood. I also have a bike but I don't use it like…

LoL That's Kinda crazy! Do you belong to any of the gyms around here? I go to Gold's... I heard that the new snap fitness has classes that are open the public & I was thinking about doing that too (I'm not so crazy about Gold's classes...)

Hey everyone! I kind of missed the whole first week - I have been so sick!!
