Hope everyone is having a good week! I have been under calories, but have not been eating the best stuff - need to do better there! I am upping the water, too. Happy weekend!

My team is full. I have 3 friends still looking to join a team - if you need members, message me and I will let them know.

Thanks everyone!

I have been quiet lately in groups, but I would like to participate in this - needing to keep on track with the holidays approaching - feeling embarrassed to see family over the holidays because I regained half of what I had lost :( - determined not to do it this season!! My favorite song from the BD 2 soundtrack is…

Bumping!! Also, gathering up a team!

So excited! I'm rounding up my regulars!!:smile: Can't wait!!

Have a great time - so fun!

Hi! I have been on MFP since last Jan. I lost 38 lbs. through counting calories and exercise. Over the last few months I have regained some of it due to a combination of factors, but mostly through not finding time to exercise, so that part is important too. Being on MFP is a great motivator for me. Good luck! I am going…

I agree with you. I did great for quite awhile and lost 38 lbs. from Jan. 2011 to November. Then the holidays hit and I got lazy, & now I'm back up a bit. Finally feeling motivated enough to be starting to lose again, but it will be awhile til I am back where I had been 6 months ago & that's frustrating. I keep telling…

I am interested, thanks!

I've been feeling the same lately! It's frustrating! I am going to friend you and we can try to keep each other motivated!

I started a year ago at 234.4. You're not alone! I got under 200 in Oct., then went back up a bit with the holidays and am working to get that back off.

I have a girl scout in my house, so of course, there are cookies here too! My favorite are the peanut butter sandwiches and the Thanks-a-lots. I eat them, but I only eat a serving (usually!) & I do log them.

Bump!

Earlier this week I was focusing on how far I have to go, instead of how far I have come. I am usually a glass half full kind of girl, but I just couldn't get there that day. I started MFP a year ago at 234, and I have felt great about how far I have come, but for some reason this week, where I currently am has just felt…

Great idea - I read all the time! One of my favorites that I am planning to reread is Mitch Albom's book The Five People You Meet in Heaven.

Ready to go! Or should I say, ready to row!!

Bump & putting a team together!! Can't wait!

My January goal is not a weight goal - it's just to get my act together and get back in the swing of getting up early to fit my exercise in first thing. Otherwise, it doesn't get done. I was so regular about doing this, and the past month I have absolutely been horrible about it! Probably why I am up in pounds!!! Happy…

Congrats to you! Fantastic job and very inspiring! Thanks for sharing!

Hi girls! Sorry to have dropped the ball here at the end! I honestly didn't even realize anyone was still posting on this thread, since the group one had started up. This is our final chart - Sarah and Amber, you two really kicked some --- in this challenge!! Way to go! Glad we are all friends on here and can keep…

I would count it. Maybe try wearing a pedometer or use a pedometer app if you have an ipod, and see how much you are actually burning doing it before deciding.

You get your sister or friend to log you in when your power goes out for 8 days or when you go on vacation so your day total doesn't reset back to zero!!

I never thought my month would get as crazy busy as it's been! Sorry I have not been on here much at all this month! I have logged every day, been okay with the water but could be better, and have not exercised as much as I usually do - too darn tired! Hope you are all doing well as the holidays approach!

Welcome - I'm 42 & have been on here almost a year. I've lost 38 lbs. so far. Feel free to add me if you want close in age friends! I am also a 1969 girl! There are lots of over 40's on here.

I weighed in at 198.2 today - darn TOM!

I know how you feel! By the time my evenings with my kids are done, I'm too tired to exercise! I was doing really well with setting my alarm half an hour earlier and getting it in before my day really got started, but since the time change I have been having trouble with that! Love your "look on the sparkly side" comment!

I want to be in on this, too! I added my name to the spreadsheet - hated to see the Twilight challenge end! So glad to see the group is continuing. Thanks, Stacy!

I'd like to try this - that seems a realistic weight loss goal.
