These are great Donna - it will be a busy Thanksgiving week here so we all need to remember to eat small portions, and after our first small meal, if we are still hungry, then go for smaller second helpings! Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Have a great week and sgay strong!

Had 12 cups of water yesterday, 9 the day before, and 11 on Tuesday....crazy! I didn't do the mini challenge yesterday cuz I've been wearing down....using tne weekend to re-coup, re-energize, and re-focus my workout/nutrition goals....and put up a christmas tree....and REST!! Thank god for weekends! Happy FRIDAY MFP family!

So every day around 10:30 my co-worker & I eat sweet&crunchy peanuts out of a can for an hour. So for the mini challenge today I am replacing my toffee-covered snack with kashi hot oatmeal..around the same amount of calories but still enuff to satisfy since they are similar in taste...I probaably won't be able to work out…

Hope ur night went smooth allie! I was so tired too but I forced myself to workout cuz I knew I can't tmro night...I did have 2 mini reese's peanut butter cups, 44 cals each, and I made that my chocolate intake for the day. Good job replacing sweets with a healthier sweet! Its all about getting into a better mind-set! I…

yay I was under my calorie goal for the Monday challenge! However, started TOM a week early, so my goal has changed from working out every day to not letting the fatigue & chocolate take me over today! I could use a lot of encouragement! Have a good Tuesday MFP family and stay encouraged! Its Biggest Loser day!

I highly enjoy this! I wish there was a "Like" button! P.S. I feel like I have been STARVING lately! I see a few others are experiencing this too..what should we do if we are still hungry but have reached our calorie limit and it's still early in the evening? That happened to me yesterday and I ended up binging on…

Was over calories by like 100 but I did 200 crunches, 20 situps, jump roping & running...too crappy to walk outside....giving up candy/chocolate for the Tuesday mini challenge!

Well, when I weighed myself Friday I was 141.5...this morning I was 143 even tho I did awesome over tne weekend...blah!

Sooooo as of Friday we are going to Cancun, Mexico for New Year's. I've never been out of the country and we're going with a bunch of people who I neeeeeeedddd to be skinny around.....how shallow...but I've got a new goal now, so needing to get my crazy workout on!

Wednesday's Mini Challenge: Sodium - I'm at 2,150 mg for the day. Not too bad for me, since I always add salt, salt, and more salt. Cardio - I did interval jogging/walking outside since it's the last nice day! And it was rough..lol I didnt even run that much, but my body feels like it got run over by a car. I have a…

I agree! Thank you for being so involved and caring enuff to lead us in such a difficult & emotional task! We're all doing great and being accountable! Thanks donna!

Okay, missed Monday's mini challenge...come ooooonnn Tuesday's mini challenge...need to do abs today no matter what!:happy: :happy:

Had a good day today! Had a good workout, did 100 crunches (about to do another set)...its gonna be a good month!

I have binged on candy 4 days in a row. Even on the days I exercised, I just binged late at night. That's apparently my crazy time, between 4 and 9 at night. So today I'm starting over, wiping the slate clean. I have ballet this morning, so that will help me get my day going. Halloween party tonight, so I have to remember…

One thing that does motivate me is ballet...I'm back into it as an adult, and having a higher self esteem now than when I danced as a teenager makes me want to work hard now knowing I won't always be able to dance. Its very emotional for me but the feeling of just dancing for me gives me such a high, and its such an…

I am having a hard time getting motivated to work out this week...I don't know if it's the weather (been raining for 3 or 4 days straight now) or if I'm like emotionally frozen...actually as I'm writing this I'm realizing it's prolly a little bit pf both.. does anyone any good advise as to how to get through a 4 day lull?…

I do the elliptical now that its started cooling off outside, and on days I just want to relax I do a pilates/yoga viedo, but I also started an adult ballet class once a week too so it helps to switch it up during the week...I haven't been doing so great on the mini challenges tho, especially with the strength…

What kind of workouts have u been doing?

I got my walking in today for the mini challenge (yay!), and I have yet to do the horrible push-ups...haven't had a lot of water today so maybe I'll make sum tea to warm up. Not sure what my carb count is yet but I have a feeling I got them all in before I saw the challennge! I would be interested in the doing the 100,000…

I'm still here! I usually am checking the posts while I'm at work, so I never have time to reply! I was under my calorie goal, I had to lift super heavy parts today so I got my strength training in (I worked both jobs today, so not a lot of time). Going home this weekendto spend time with my family so I'm gonna need…

Today's mini challenge went good for me - instead of stairs I did a half hour on the elliptical, but still worked the thighs! I did 50 crunches and 40 sit-ups (my first in a long time! oops!). I never had to deal with a little chub belly until the last year - all of the sudden this little pooch showed up...so I really need…

Hey guys! I'm finally getting to write about myself.....I'm Suzie, and I'm 27 years old. I moved from Ohio in with my boyfriend in Indiana just over a year ago, got a desperate office job, and that's when I gained weight. He is twice the size of me and I find myself eating things I would never eat by myself, and watching…

I only like Caesar salads and like side salads with french or something...and I have to be in the mood or have a taste for it. So I dont think you're alone!

I would love to join! I will friend request..
