Hello Everyone! Today I checked in on the scale and I am down another 2 lbs! Yay! but in order to reach my goal I am going to have to loose 3 lbs the next 2 weeks...this might be tough because TOM is coming up AND Thanksgiving....I may in fact be a week of target...I am hoping I can do it some how!! YIKES!! :huh:

That sounds fantastic!!! I am going to try that out mmmm it sounds so fall!! Thx

There you go!! New Year...New You!!

Ohand BTW does anyone have any good recipes for granola? I made it once before but the recipe was kinda bland...:huh:

Hello Peoples!!! How is everyone doing? Remember if you ever need to talk I am always here for all of you! Anyone worried about Thanksgiving? I have been mentally preparing myself for the past few weeks and I am almost positive I can through it...if I dont cook and go to someone elses house for dinner..LOL! I CANNOT have…

Try not to say negative things about yourself! We live our personal truths...so if you believe you are all the things you just said than that is what you will be...just change your mind!! I know that is easier said than done but it is so true! At the very least you have to acknowledge that you are here and you are trying…

WELCOME!!! The more we have the Stronger we become!! Tell us a lilttle bit about yourself!!

I find that planning is key!! I always seem to get into sticky situations without a plan...LOL! Hunger sets in and then I am upset that I didn't plan ahead...So GOOD FOR YOU...for planning ahead for your trip! Thumbs Up!!!

Excellent!!! :bigsmile:

Hello All! I am so exhausted! Went to a concert last night and up early this morning...so I am wiped! Just thought I would stop in and see how everyone was doing! I am doing well but I really need to get to grocery store...I feel like I am there ALL THE TIME!! LOL! Well talk to you all tommorrow! :happy:

Inspiration is always helpful in this rollercoaster ride of a battle!! I just keep surrounding myself with those I aspire to be like and it is helpful, so good for you!!

CONGRATS!!!! Good luck with lunch...I know how that is!

It just seems like everyone will always have an opinion and I guess I have to take what they say with a grain of salt! YOU WOULD THINK any "friend" would be supportive BUT it is not always the case...sadly enough! I think people in general should be supportive of someones goal regardless of their personal opinion....I…

I weighed in this morning to montior progress and I was down another 2 lbs! I think this is excellent considering I only had the opportunity to work out once this week! I was sad about it but life got in the way. My daughter was home sick, I have several papers due for school and 2 midterms!! I felt like my head was…

I hope you feel better soon! My daughter was sick earlier this week and I was soooo worried with all this H1N1 going around! Get all the rest you need, your helth is number 1!

Hello Everyone! Glad to see that everyone has been active on here! Today was a pretty good day...but I know I did a few bad things! I was so behind schedule that I ran out of the house with out my lunch....so all I had was an apple !!! That was not good....when I got home I had an afternoon snack and then moved onto…

I would say that was certainly a work out!! I also agree that logging food is at least 90% of the process!!! It is so amazing to see how many calories are in the foods we eat...another big one is sodium, lord was I shocked when I really started paying attention. I never looked before because my blood pressure was fine...I…

Any Lose is great!!! YAY!!!

Yes we CAN!!!!! :bigsmile:

Hello People!! I just wanted to drop in and say that I had a great Halloween! So great in fact that I spent the night over a friends house...and she doesn't have a scale. I am going to have to weigh in 2morrow AM. I only like to weigh in right after I wake up!! Sorry if this throws anyone off!! I hope everyone had a great…

Good Afternoon My Fellow Challengers!! So sorry I didn't post yesterday my day was HECTIC!!!!!! I was drained by the end of the day but I did manage to log my calories! I am excited that everyone was active on the thread congrats to everyone on all the good things!! For all those having a bad day...remember today does not…

Hello Everyone! Just wondering if anyone knows where to get the smoke free tickers?? I keep seeing them everywhere! Thanks :)

Good Morning Challengers!!! I am looking forward to have a Fantabulous DAY!! How is everyone doing today? I feel good and ready to go...my mini goal for the day is to get a really good sweat breaking work out. I am thinking Billy Blanks Boot Camp, I KNOW that will do it! Welcome Newbies please take a moment to read the…

It has to be water retention...maybe the foods you ate had too much sodium?? Thats the only explanation for a 3 lb gain in 2 days....unless you ate 10,500 calories which would be what you needed to eat to gain 3 lbs...LOL! Isn't that crazy!!! Agghhh the womans body!!

Yesterday was the number one reason I started this group...I got on the scale and although I knew that because of Auntie Flo that I was not going to have a big lose, I was particularly careful this week not to loose control and to avoid sodium. BUT I got on the scale and I had only a lose of .5 lbs. Now most people will…

Something about jumping in the mud sounds fun!!! :wink: Sounds like you had a fantastic day of activities thats the way to do!!!

I always weigh myself in the morning before eating and after using the bathroom because after eating the food is still in me and has not been burned yet. Everyone does it different...so whatever works for you!! Im sure you probably sis loose the 2 lbs...so YAY for you!!! :happy:

It's pretty quiet in here today! I hope everyone is out doing something fun!! :bigsmile:

Good Luck with your 5k! can't wait to hear how it goes!!
