Wow...I literally woke up this morning 8 pounds heavier...how does that even happen? Weighed in at 175.8 this morning...then after exercising was at 171.4...hmmmm I just don't understand. I really need to get into a groove and meet my deficits....I do really well some days and others not so well so at the end of the week I…

Love it!

Thats a good idea! Now that it is warming up I may try to take my bike to the barn some. should be a good cal burner...I know what you mean about staring at walls...me and gyms don't get along. This last week was a disaster diet wise....I let stress get the better of me...and everyone wanted me to go out to eat with them…

Absolutley! I have lost a couple inches in my calves by running and 30DS. I had a pair of boots I couldnt even attempt to get on but now they fit albeit slightly snug than I'd like.

Sounds like a plan!...Thinking I may need to do that...hmmm...

5'4" here and goal of 130! Feel free to add!

Wow sounds like you have a lot on your plate for sure! I haven't really been doing what I'd call losing...it is the gained vacation weight that is slowly coming back off. I really haven't been able to get my eating back in order enough to lose anything more. But I am at least keeping a small deficit or breaking even.…

Doing good I supposed. How about you? Just trying to get a hold on my eating and trying to find motivation to exercise. Today was my day off work and I have not had motivation to do anything lol.

The trip was good. I miss the coast so much and wish we could move back so badly. Maybe one of these days... I feel really sluggish because of eating bad last week and not exercising. So I will start back to it today and see if i can get back on track. I hope to start back to running again soon too...just depends on how…

Well...I am back from vacation. Boy am I feeling it too. Ate absolutley nothing healthy and made no effort to exercise. I feel like a slob and do I dare to step on the scale??? I have to go buy a few groceries so i can get back to the grind and try to repair this damage I have done...grrr....

It is really hard when they stand there trying to shove food down your throat all the time...but then if i eat a cookie there is always a smartass remark like dieters dont eat those....GRRR

Feel free to add me too!

I am still at the 167, been sitting at it a while now. I have been self-sabotaging too I think....You know...The "It won't hurt to have a few of these it won't put me that much more over" stuff. I have been trying to stay positive and keep working out. I have been trying to pre-enter meals but then my husband sabotages me…

I have developed a defeatus attitude the last couple days and have not eaten appropriately. Today is somewhat back on track. But today is my day off of work and after a full day of JUNK yesterday I really felt nasty this morning. All I wanted to do is sit and eat. I talked myself out of working out this morning and started…

Yeah I played around and changed some stuff..probably end up changing it back. i am getting a little frustrated lately and my lack of progress so haven't been eating well myself. Got to regain focus...

We all have those weeks. My motivation is wearing thin as well...I have had a deficit every single day and still weigh the same...very frustrating...

30 Day Shred for five days a week + I work doing barn chores at a boarding stable, nothing like hard manual labor for calorie burn! I am also about to add some kickboxing and start back running .

I hope you had fun! Well, I have reset my goals on BodyMedia so I know have a lower calorie intake limit. i am hoping that will keep me a little more conscious of what I am doing. I don't know if this is water weight week or what but my weight has been all over the, place...who knows what it'll be on Monday! Oh well...

Thats okay. I have been eating a little more than I should be too. And although I have been showing deficits all but a couple days, I am at a stand still. So, i have reset my goals on BodyMedia and am going to try to kick my butt into gear. We can do this!

I was wanting to start running again this week but weather calls for cold and windy and wet all week....grrrr. I am getting a little frustrated. I have been doing the 30 day shred for a couple weeks and I remember doing it before and seeing results quickly...not BIG results but I could tell a difference in my body. This…

I have always gotten plus size fitness clothes from Old Navy. Their clothes are just as good as the other brands and are very cute. I would go check out their website for plus size active wear. I don't think you'll be disappointed!

Well...I think I did good for today...I am hoping I at least broke even but won't really know for sure until in the morning. I mainly snacked and only ate lunch as a full meal. We did lots of walking while shopping but I know my burn won't even be close to what it normally is. I did buy a little motivation...a matching…

Glad your feelin great! I am cringing for this weekend. I am leaving for my parents house and all they ever want to do is eat out...YIKES! I have to keep myself in check BIG TIME! I feel like I have done okay this week with calories but my sodium is still way high so I am holding a lot of water...GRRR. I hope Monday…

Days 1- 3 is always probably the worst as far as soreness. But if you can stick it out a couple more days the soreness goes away and you start to feel stronger...its a good feeling!

I have actually not changed what I eat...I did fix my portions though. That did a tremendous help for keeping my calorie goals in check. But I won't deprive myself of the foods I love because I know that I will want to binge on them as soon as I can get my hands on them if I never eat them. And I don't allow myself to go…

Don't get discouraged. Maybe Monday is not a good weigh in day. Most people don't eat well over the weekend and Monday is bloat day central. I can't wait until our tickers say ZERO left to lose!

Well poo...thats no good! I need to try mine on that I bought recently...I don't even know if they fit LOL. I don't know if I will be down any this week, the scales have been pretty steady even though I have been having a calorie deficit pretty steady every day. Guess we will find out tomorrow when we weigh in. I also do…

I use a few of his methods but have mostly converted to Clinton Anderson. They are "basically" along the same lines, but I like the no-nonsense of DownUnder Horsemanship. I kinda flip-flop back and forth depending on what methods seem to work with that particular horse.

Monday should be fine! Gonna try to be good this weekend...hopefully I won't screw myself... I love getting new boots and stuff! have fun!

Glad to have you aboard! I am 33 and have four horses. I ride Western & English and learning dressage. I started in Hunter/Jumper, have barrel-raced & ran poles, done english and western pleasure and am about to start Competitive trail riding soon. I still have my first horse, her name is Lady and she is a 30 year old…
