Definitely paint it :)

I will update my stats on Monday! I'm so excited to join!!

Cw: 187lbs up a pound:(

You all are doing so well!! I have been super busy the past couple of weeks. Sorry to say my diet and exercise plan (or lack there of) has severely suffered. I'm not quite off the wagon, but I'm hanging on by my fingertips to the edge. You are inspiring me to keep hanging in there. Thanks:) luckily and surprisingly I have…

So are we all riding this group through August? I'm seeing fewer and fewer posts :(

Leela you have been great ! Stay strong as go through these rough times. Afterall we wouldn't even be a group if you hadn't started this thread. I for one am very thankful. I appreciate all the support from everyone here :)

I always lose weight when TOM rolls around. The hormones in my birth control pills play a large role in this fluctuation though.

I tried the same expensive snacks. I found that they just weren't worth the price. I now buy fresh fruits and veggies. Last night was the best example when my teenager was talking about how bad she was craving something sweet she opened the fridge and was so happy to see that we still had strawberries left. Thats my only…

You have done an AMAZING job!! The weight keeps falling off :) How is your exercise plan?

You could sit down with your family and dicuss why you want to change your eating habits. Explain to them that you want your entire family to be healthy and not go down the same paths that you have gone down. I have done this with my family and we all still have treats on rare ocassion because that is what they…

Start weight: 225 lb starting MFP on 01/09/11 July goal wt: lose 10 lbs July 1: 190.5 lbs July 8: 192lbs (+1.5 lbs) July 15:188.5 lbs (- 3.5 lbs) July 22: 188.5 lbs (+/- 0) No change :( July 29: 188.5 lbs (+/- 0) No change :( I've been stalled for half of the month. I have to admit though, i haven't made the best choices…

No change for me this week :(, its most likely water weight gain since TOM is around the corner so I'm hanging at 188.5 lbs

I hope you feel better soon Ally, summer colds/ bronchitis are the worst!!

As if the calorie count in a regular soda doesn't shock you enough... Regardless, if you really want to quit something you just make up your mind that you really dont want it. I struggle with the caffeine intake, so I had to gradually wean myself cutting it down to 1 or even a half a can of Mt. Dew. Its hard but definitely…

I am on week 2 day 1 of c25k and have lost 2 pounds since starting the program ;)

I'm here and ready to rock it on weight loss this week:)

I struggle with the same. My issues are lack of sleep :( During summertime its hard to get the kids to bed early.

So since I'm a newbie in the groups, I'm assuming that this thread will be done next week. Are we planning on continuing the group with new challenges into August? I'm loving this small group size. Its like we are really getting to know each other and our struggles. It helps me know that I'm not alone in this battle.

Weigh in July 22: 188.5 lbs No change from last week :(

Good Morning Everyone :) My scale didn't change and I'm estactic. I have had a rough week. I had a few days I was a lil over on calories and a few days where I was so emotionally distraught that I couldn't eat 900 cal. I have only been exercising routinely once a week. But I'm actually proud of that since my exercise…

Hey everyone!! I'm still here and reading all your posts. I have been going through a ton of family stress lately yet surprisingly lost 2 lbs as of last Friday!! I'm staying under my calorie goals by 200 cal a day. I've added c25k for exercise and today's run was so much easier :) ( No back pain at all) Have faith in me if…

After completing week 1 day 2 of c25k, I decided to weigh. I lost 2 pounds :))) I'm sure its mostly water weight from running in this stinking heat of the afternoon. But both times I have ran I have developed some back pain. I'm not so sure its my shoes, they are fairly new and have not bothered me until now. Any…

Thanks for setting up the goals for this week!! They sound great! :)

So sad to see you go:( Best of Luck in your studies and weight loss:))

Ok so I was really bummed about my weigh in today. I chalked it up to not excerising enough and possibly water weigh gain. But I measured myself today and I have lost inches!!! 2 inches in my hips and 1 inch in my waist.

I did the same thing, up 1.5 lbs :( Im blaming it on water weight.....hopefully

Congrats!!!!

Great Job!! You guys are my inspiration to get my butt in gear!!

Weigh In july 8: 192 lbs up 1.5 lbs ( hopefully just water weight)

July 8 Weigh In: 192 up 1.5lbs :( TOM is here so it may just be water weight....i hope I haven't been great at all with the miles challenge, or exercise at all for that matter. I just loaded C25K on my iphone so hopefully I can get my butt in gear. What are the challenges for this week?
