glad to report that I have been doing much better this week. I have stayed in my carb count and have done dvds to burn more calories. I have lost most of the weight I gained from my insane birthday week binge and I feel that I will make it close to my goal.

You look like misty may-treanor's little sister. In case you don't know who she is she is a two time olympic gold beach volleyball star and arguably the best female volleyball player of all time. SO you have done an outstanding job on your weightloss. congrats.

You are ahead of me with one day at a time. I am still working on one meal at a time. BUt with focus and determination we can do this.

This is the first I am hearing of youbars. I will definitely check it out. Have you tried the ATkins bars? I have them and they net only 3 carbs.

I managed to do 45 minutes of aerobic exercise along with an hour of cleaning and moving furniture. SO I guess I am back in this for real.

Thanks Sherry and Rapture for your words of encouragement.

Saturday I am going to do two 30 minute dvds. Sunday I am in church and go to visit my brother in the nursing home so I will work out when I get home.

I am ready to go. Decided to celebrate my birthday on Friday so I can get back to business. Thanks or the helping hand.

That sounds geat I wonder if there is something like that here in Chicago. I am definitely going to research it. I usually buy organic fruits and veggies from Wholefood but getting them delivered to my door would be awesome.

Thanks for the encouragement JCP. I did manage to pull myself out of bed and a 45 minute dvd. I love walking and was up to 10 miles every other day until last Friday when I decidedto try and jog which I did for about four blocks. However I injured my achilles tendon doing so and now I have a boot on my leg. So I have to do…

Hey Hammbone I am doing net carbs. Didn't do so well yesterday but today is a new day and I will try agian.

I really don't feel like doing any exercise today but then again I don't feel like being overwieght for too much longer either. SO which one will it be? do a workout or stay overweight? Descisions, descisions, descisions.

Hey there. I am from Chicago too and I see you a repping the correct team. Go Cubs. Oh yeah, your arms are fine but I have a sneaky feeling that you know that already.

Hey Petunia glad to meet you and see your excitement.

I have tried them all and nothing works for me but good luck to you.

Hey Resalyn nice to meet you. I liked your story it motivates me with all that you have going on that you still find time for workouts.

Hey count me in I am 256 and 5'8 will be 44 on April 29.

Yes to all of the above. You know I never thought about the boy redistributing weight to different areas but now that you mention it I can see that it is true.

I am the same way.

I am going for 160. I believe that losing too much weight will make my face sag so 260 which will be another 90 pounds. :

I am here so no need to feel lonely. I have 100 more pounds to go. I have lost 22.

Congrats. Hard work pays off.

Hey, I am getting a late start but I am ready to go. Freezing here in Chicago but I am going to do a brisk mile walk while I wait for my daughter to get out of school. Have some back pain but can still do moderate exercise. Baked chicken and greens on the menu for dinner

I am in too. A day late but like they say "better late than never." My challenge is to exercise everyday fro at least 20 minutes and track all my food. Keep the numbers going down and not up like they did after my vacation.

1tsp of flax seed oil 1cp strawberries 1 banana 1/4 cp carrots and celery 1 tsp of organic honey 1 tsp of lemon juice ice 1 scoop whey protein vanilla

I am 5'8 and now weigh 265 my goal is 170.

Pop is my weakness trying to stop drinking it but it is so hard. I'd rather drink pepsi than eat
