thanks for running this group again! I too need to get back into the swing of things! Last year was a year of changes, but not a lot of weight came of, wanna change that this year!

as long as you don't have a heart or kidney condition you can drink all you want! Did you eat very salty? Maybe that is the reason why you are more thirsty today! Oh and don't set time limits for drinking water! Maybe to get in a minimum, but not a maximum. So maybe you are thirsty now and drink less and later when you…

you look smocking hot, if I may say so!!! (And no I am not into women *lol*) But wow, you made a hell of a change in yourself on the outside! I can only imagine what kind of "weight" you had to shift on the inside!

yeah it was a great summer and I loved this group! Thanks Donna for all the hard work! And also Beth for being Teamleader of Cabin 3 Win to be thin!!!

sharing my opinion! I loved staying on track over the summer and even though I did not loose a lot of weight, I stayed on track for the most part of it! The last 2 weeks were not so good for me and I do not know weather it was because I was standing in my way or because not being able to choose my activities but been…

Sounds like the week to come is a fresh start all around!

took me almost a year to loose 30 lbs! Had a few set backs, but the key is to start over the next day if one day goes not as you hoped!!!

you look fantastic!!!

yesterday I literarilly went searching for chocolate, it did not matter as long as i could put it in my mouth and it was chocolate, it was okay!!! Needless to say i went over my cals big time and felt bad and too stuffed when I fnally went to bed! Also i was not able or better say I did not take the time to run this week.…

@Karen: Is it possible that she thinks, because you wanna live healthy, that your kids somehow get short in stuff? I know it is a nicer approach of what your friend said, but it is a possibility too! It would be sad if her intention would be to sabotage you! Is there a possibility for you o sit down and talk this out? I…

have a great day kareen! and hold on this visit will not last forever!

@Karen: is there a chance your husband would support you, if you throw out the junk? It is your house after all and even more important your health!

Today is pay it back day!!! We are going to my younger sister in law for her birthday (which is today), but equally important to welcome and see the new family addition: Baby Larissa!!! Now to me going on Baby visits is a little double sided! Yes, I am happy that they have a healthy Baby and that they became pregnant so…

Beth: Yes I know, it is really great here, because we all struggle! The few friends that I have don't want to loose weight or do not need it! So it is great to have a place where everyonehas the same goal! Kinda hard to think what I will do, when this challenge is over!

Yup, I am in on the moving comfort too! Try "June", I loved that model, even after countless tours in the washing mashine (no dryer) it has the same hold on!

hmm, in this case: I am sorry you have a friend who is not as supportive as a friend should be or as you wish she would be! That is really anoying! Maybe next time text her back something along the lines of: Hey we do not have to eat, to see each other! Or invite her to workout with you together? Maybe do some fun activity…

ik ben een duitse en leef in venlo! Sorry my dutch writing is not even a quarter as good as my spoken language *lol*

Does she? or are you just more aware of it now that you are paying attention to your own lifestyle! Ever asked her for the reason?

The mindwork we have to do to loosing weight sometimes feels ridiculous, doesn´t it? A couple of days ago I had to check mfp recording and the scale twice during the day (which I never do, I weight in once a week!), to convince myself, that I am not the same fat person from last year, that I am not over 200 pounds anymore…

I had a pretty rough week extra shifts had taken its toll on me and even though I got some workouts done, I had way to much food! It started earier in the week hen my husband asked me after I came home from late shift, if I wanted to have a little something. My little something turned out to be an over 2000 cal meal...…

i took a pic of me today! tired and on the couch that i will keep up in the next couple of days as a reminder that i need rest days! not only from exercise, but also from work! if i do not in time take these rest days i eat like a pig! junk food and way to much, to be comfortable!!! so take a pic day is my day of choice!!

uhm... sorry I am way to sleepy! Will post tomorrow about todays big NSV a bit more! Super happy but very tired after shift and running and day stuff!

a actually are we doing as a activity of our choice or in this case our councelors??

I use the c25k app from zen labs! I know many use them and are successful and so was I... on the treadmill! Now it was time for a change and I decided to face my fears head on and take running out on the street! To be honest I am happy that I did the program on the treadmill first, because now my mind knows that it…

my nsv day was to finally accept compliments about my weightloss and running. apparently my whole neighbourhood decided to notice my efforts this week and it took me some time to just stand there and be proud and say: yup, I did this, it was not always easy, but it was the best decision I ever made for myself!

<<< Love my glasses!!!

I hate the whole day with my husband! We had a nice long walk with our dog Kayla along a river here in town and kayla got a little swim in! Then we went out and I kind of did good at all day and at dinner... then we went for ice cream (bad idea!!) oh well its one night and the eating is over, going to run in the morning…
