Give it up, COLD TURKEY! That's what I did. I can promise you, you will NEVER miss it!! Would you rather have the momentary taste of soda, or would you rather *get rid of* heartburn, high blood pressure, migraines, diabetes, etc. That is the real question you need to ask yourself. Think about it!

Sounds like a wonderful Idea to me, too! I have had a lot going on where I am, and so would love to restart ... starting with today.

Didn't take a picture. what happened to this group? Can we elect a new moderator (s)? It was such a good group of inspiration! Cathy

this was a GOOD group, I agree. Anyone want to try their hand at restoring a NEW group??

I had a difficult time mainly because I was in the hospital with my dad who was rushed to NICU. Planning to get back on track tomorrow. - eat healthy meals - get sleep -drink ALL water - exercise

Mini goal for today (3) 1- Eat healthy 2-Drink more water 3-Get back to the gym!

Here's something that helped for me. It has changed my mind and focus a LOT... check it out! http://optimistnet.com/

I found this out the HARD way. My attempts at restoring a bad familial relationship was met with the Silent Treatment. This totally is NOT the way you want to go!! Not saying this would happen to you, this is what happened to me. Making you aware... Strong medicine here, but I agree. It's the best thing you can do for…

Invest your time in others or yourself. Find a way to be helpful to someone. Maybe someone that is lonely or does not have many or any friends. I heard, the more we focus on our problem, the more it grows. . . and the larger it becomes. Read the Bible, start in the Psalms, and then go to Proverbs. There is comfort in the…

Sorry to hear this news. That sounds like MY story. I too, was a bit disappointed that I did not see a loss this past week, but I'm looking forward to next week...

Here, here. Looking for answers as well.

What an amazing idea... sounds like something I'll have to try!

Sarah: Good luck with the interview tomorrow/today! Sending best wishes to you! Angie: Wednesday is weigh in day! I hope we all see some GOOD numbers... ! :happy: sherrygirl123 - Welcome to our little group here. I hope you find support, encouragement and motivation.. if you're looking for it .. you certainly will find it…

Congratulations on your wedding anniversary 0505 Jen! I stayed on plan for the entire weekend and am planning to do so for today as well. I did not drink as much water as I had been drinking though, only 5 cups. Mini goals for today are: Drink more water, at least 8 cups eat all meals for today Hope everyone is having a…

My mini goals for this weekend are: - keep my eye on the prize! - remember: SLOW & STEADY wins the race! - Keep my focus on total sugars, carbs, and sat. fats - increase water intake - continue doing my squats as planned! When I joined this group, I was drinking 3 cups of water a day. :huh: My mini goal then was to…

Congratulations o5o5 Jen! Good job majinsky _91 !! Keep up the fab work! I haven't met my goal yet, but I am deterimined! Have been keeping track of my sugars and it is so amazingly easy! Trying to balance my carbs and proteins as well. It is a challenge, I'm new to this. But I am sure I will get the hang of it sooner or…

I'm here!! Busy, busy day, but I'm here. Day is going very well. Enjoying this group so much!!:happy:

Amen to that Colleen, there is an awful lot going on over here too. But I managed to lose 2lbs just the same!! I'll take it!

I would adjust my pallet to accept and enjoy DARK chocolate. There are many health benefits that it offers. MILK chocolate on the other hand in my opinion is a no-no. Here is some information on dark chocolate and the benefits that come from eating 1oz per day! http://www.med.umich.edu/umim/food-pyramid/dark_chocolate.htm

Got some cardio exercise in as well as toning! Going to work on the second half of my water goal.. I think I can do it, I KNOW I can ;-)

Good morning! I too, haven't been feeling too terribly terrific these past few days. Looking forward to tomorrow's weigh in though. Hope I can see some new numbers. I didn't stick with the mini goals I set for myself; ie: more water and incorporating some exercise into my plan, but I know 90% of weight loss is what we EAT.…

Day 6 is going well for me. Hope everyone else if having a great day!

So glad to be a part of this group. Today brought some unforeseen challenges my way, but I am still on play for the most part. O:)

Yay! This is a great group, thank you SO much for starting it! Do you suppose after the 100 days are over we can take a mini break (3weeks - one month) and then continue? that would be wonderful! My mini goals today are: 1- to increase my water intake, 2- to do my squats 3- add some form of exercise So far, so good! I'm…

So far so good! Logging food: DONE! Exercise: DONE! Water 3 DONE!! Goals for tomorrow: increase water by 2 cups!

Day 1 went well for me also. Day 2 has been a new found burst of determination!

I will be here! Thanks for starting this group!

Glad I found this group! My daily goals will be starting today, September 4th... 1- drink at least 6 cups of water per day 2- work out at home and 3-eventually get back into going to the gym !! a ps: reduce my intake of junk!

This ^^^ ^^^^^ both posters.. is EXACTLY right! I have found this to be the case in my situation as well. It is impossible to cut out particular groups of foods, or LIMIT them drastically. Not only is it impossible, but it is not healthy. There are some on here that are insisting they know the right way. But their methods…

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!!
