  • I guess it depends a lot on your frame (I think that is why the range is about a 40 lb range) I am 5'3" and currently about 132 and still need to lose more. However, I have a pretty small frame. I've also seen a lot of people say that they don't think they'll get down to the target BMI range because it would just be too…
  • Our move out day is next Wednesday so I'll be very busy the next several days making sure the house is cleaned and picked up. I probably won't have too much time to sit around and snack lol. Hopefully it works to our advantage instead of leaving me eating everything in sight at the end of the night each day. I felt a lot…
  • Shannon: Honestly, I think the only thing I have going for me is I get lucky on weeks I go up a 1.5-2 lbs. and then just lose that weight back for the next week. I'm really hoping I don't keep that pattern next week, because we need to win this week. I know when I was doing Insanity though, I wasn't losing hardly any…
  • So is it just down to me and you on the team Shannon? I guess we better be on top of our game this week to make sure nobody gets eliminated.
  • I "think" tomorrow will be an ok weigh in for me. I've been doing really good the last few days with my diet, so I'm hoping it pays off some tomorrow. I don't think it will be a lot though :(
  • I hope it's not too late to get in on this (or at least the other group that's open) I really need this right now. Name: Brittany Height: 5'3" Reason for Joining the Diamonds Challenge: I've lost about 25 lbs so far and have recently been working on getting back some motivation. I've really been wanting somewhere I could…
  • Going to weigh right now. I don't think it's going to be good though :( Definitely a gain this week due to stress eating and TOM :sick: I feel so bad about this week. I'm not sure I'll ever get out of the 130s.
  • Yesterday all I ate for most of the day was a cup of fruit and an apple with peanut butter. Lucky I didn't really have time to eat much more because we ended up at a 4th of July Festival and I helped eat a funnel cake then had a slice of pepperoni pizza. I guess I didn't too bad considering we were at the festival for…
  • I wish I could forget to eat. For some reason that seems to be about all I can remember to do lately :ohwell:
  • Hmm, :sad: I don't want any of us to go. Alright, well I have a plan if it's me. I'm going to lose just enough to win the second chance round, then get added to their team because they'll have the least amount of people, then gain weight each week. hahahaha :devil: That'll show them, plus I'll really love the junk food I…

  • Yeah, I wish someone was coming to help us pack/move everything. A couple we knew was getting ready to move last year and he was in the Navy. They said they weren't allowed to pack anything, that someone was coming to pack up everything, move it, and unpack it. I guess that the same reason as you said. I have a 1 year old…
  • I'm still here. I've been a little out of it lately. But, I peeked at the scale this morning and I'm down a little bit, so that's nice. Yesterday my husband got a cinnamon roll that I know is delicious. He kept asking me if I wanted some and I actually turned it down and didn't eat any of it. I was pretty proud of myself…
  • That sounds like a lot of fun. We've looked into doing something like that but haven't found anything close enough to us.
  • Wellll, I can't believe I made it through this week. I was totally prepared to be kicked out this week and start planning for the second chance victory. I guess this means I really need to step up my game this week so it's not a wasted opportunity. Also, we are going to kick butt next week.
  • I'm trying to look ahead. My anniversary is the day before Halloween so I've got that as a goal so hopefully we can do something nice. I'm also hoping to look good for Thanksgiving since we'll be going all over to visit with our families. I am happy with the progress I've made so far, I just don't want to give up when I've…
  • Got back from visiting family late today. It hasn't been a very good weekend for me :( I really need to get myself in gear and get back on track. I'm so tired of thinking about the progress I was making and how I'm not making any lately.
  • Kim, I've kind of been really slacking in the exercise department lately. When I was exercising regularly, the last thing I was doing was the Insanity program. Before that was running, then 30 day shred, then Tae Bo Amped.
  • Alright, well I've made it through another week ( I told my husband I thought I was going to get kicked out this week ) I guess that means I should take this opportunity to really get back in the game and not get kicked out next week. I did a lot better with my soda intake vs. water intake today. I actually made myself…

  • Kim, that sucks. One day I got on the scale to check and when I got back on a few minutes later with the camera ready I was up 1 lb. I have no idea what happened, but it made me mad lol. I'm definitely not the big winner this week, but that .5 lb advantage might just keep me in the game.
  • OMG I'm going to be lucky if I'm not eliminated tomorrow :( I've been so busy with getting my husband ready/organized for his new job, finding a new home, getting my older daughter ready/signed up for her new school, and looking for a job. And that doesn't include all the normal day to day stuff. I haven't been doing very…
  • Well I'll just say, unless everyone else is having a terrible week, I'm not going to get a third win this week :( Tomorrow we have to go back to where we're moving to sign papers on a house, so we'll be out all day and probably eating somewhere I shouldn't. Those pork chops sound great. I'm going to have to try those some…
  • We have to do all the packing and moving ourselves. More exercise for me I guess. Yeah, I think I need to just start getting rid of some of the food that's in our house. And no more buying special snack stuff for my husband unless it's something I don't like. Good luck at the game tonight Kim. Hotdogs sound good to me…
  • Eh, I'm just hoping after being the individual winner two weeks in a row, I don't get eliminated this week. I'm going to try really hard to focus on lots of water, lots of veggies, and no junk the next few days. Kim, great job with getting the exercise and fruits & veggies in. Faith, awesome day for you too.
  • I'm trying sooo hard not to let all the stress I have over this move take over me. It seems like ever since we found out we had to move I've lost all self control. I'm begging myself to stop picking up everything in the kitchen and eating it. Doesn't help that I printed out a moving check list and one of the things to do…
  • Alright, well I don't want to oversleep in the morning and forget to post so I'll just make a decision now. I'm going to go with McDebbie. Sorry Fat Fighters, but it had to be someone.
  • Very true.....it's going to be tough. I have until the morning to choose right?
  • So, I've been thinking about it more. Maybe Accountantboi would be a better pick. He's had a pretty steady loss, and he's their team captain. Taking him from their team might break some of their motivation....hmmmm. :devil:
