Hi Pink Team. How is everyone doing today? I wanted to post that I did my exercise for today. I did 30 minutes of jogging on the Wii Fit Plus and 10 minutes of Just Dance 2 on the Wii. I also did my stretching, 30 lunges, and 100 crunches. Now I just need to work on drinking the water!

This is a (BAD) picture of me in July 2010. I started my journey in September 2010 at 223 lbs, but didn't join MFP until Janurary 2011, starting at 177 lbs. This picture is from about 2 weeks ago, at 141 lbs.

I'm 4'11" and started at 223 lbs. in September 2010. I am now down to 138 lbs. but keeping on. I'll post pictures in a bit.

This is going to be a hard week for me to accomplish the challenges, but I'll be trying my best. I'll either do some working out tonight or if not, I'll definitely start back up tomorrow. Hope everyone is having a great week. It feels like Monday to all of us here, since we just got back last night!

Sorry it's late, Holli, but here's my weigh in. Starting MFP Weight 177 (My heighest weight was 223 when starting in my journey in September, 2010) Starting SAHMU Weight 141 Week 1 Weight 141 Week 2 Weight 138 **Down 3 lbs.** Goal Weight 120

Hi Becky, welcome to the group. To answer your question about the challenges, here's the link that explains it all. It's pretty long (like 16+ pages), but if you read through it all, it explains the challenges for the week and everyone introduces themselves.…

I'm not a very good cook, especially when it comes to "eyeballing amounts" so I really like to have measurements anyways. So, what I do is create a recipe and log everything that goes into it, weigh the total amount, then divide it by either 4, 6, 8 or more and figure out how much I eat based on the serving size. It's a…

I almost always have the red warning flashing up on my screen when I log. I'm allotted 1200 calories a day, but I usually eat around 1100 or so. After so many years of eating whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted, I have finally started listening to my body's signals and when I am not hungry, then I'm not going to eat. I…

Holli, Here's my info from yesterday (Monday): Squats: 30 Cardio: 47 minutes Kitchen Closed: 9:30 pm Also, I posted a picture in the SAHMU Challenge thread, so that's supposed to add an extra point for us :)

You look completely different! You are doing so awesome! And your little boy is adorable too :)

I usually go over on my protein each day. I've been told that it's not bad since it fills you up and is good for you.

Holli, Here is my info for Sunday: 25 squats completed 54 minutes of walking completed Kitchen closed at 6:30 pm

Thanks girls. I really appreciate it. Oh, and sorry about the pictures being so big. I'm not very good at the whole resizing/photobucket thing, lol!

I decided to have my 7 year old (Caeleb) take a pic of me tonight so I can have a recent one and have one to post here for you all. Here's my current pic (at 141 lbs): Here's my before pic (at around 223 lbs. This was taken in July 2010 and I started my journey in September 2010):

How's everyone doing today? I've been running errands all morning, trying to get last minute things for our trip before I start packing. I'm planning on doing some Wii exercising here in a bit for my cardio for today. Just wanted to check in with you all. :happy:

Holli, Here's my info from yesterday (Thursday): Holli: My kitchen closed at 8:30 pm Did my 25 squats Walked for 2 hours (actually 4, but only logging 2) at the zoo with my sons

We are a family of 4 (DH, myself, 7 year old and 2 year old-still in diapers). We spend roughly $200-$300 a month on groceries, health and beauty items, cleaners and diapers. I am a couponer, and although I don't buy as much as I used to, since I am purchasing less foods and more that are healthier, I still buy based on…

You could always go to Chili's because Kids Eat Free Tonight and then do either half of your dinner and save the other half for tomorrow or pick something not too terrible for you. I eat the Chicken Fajitas there....not good for you, but oh so yummy, LOL!

My hardest thing has been sweets. I have a horrible sweet tooth and I'm not a person that can just have 1 and be satisfied, so for the most part, I just don't have it. If it's something that I can easily limit myself, then I go ahead, but some stuff it's just easier for me to not have it at all. As far as family support,…
