I'm in on this one. I went over by way too much last night and so here today starts my 7 days of under my calories. I can do this! :)
-
Checking in even though I am 7 calories over today. I noticed today at lunch I was famished and I think it was my body catching up with me from yesterday and all the extra walking and it just needed protein majorly! Well, I am supposed to start my TOM this week but if Clomid working I might not. We shall definitely see how…

Yesterday's weigh in had me up 0.2 lbs which brings me to 300.3. I'm hoping for about 3 lbs lost this week. Today we went out the First Monday Trade Days and I walked for at least 2 1/2 hours at a modest pace and oh my feet are feeling it. I had my foot brace on and was still in pain most of the time. I pushed through and…

Here is the hubby and I last night. I'm down 37 lbs and he is down 17 lbs.
-
Just remembered that I hadn't checked in yesterday after I weighed. I weighed in at 300.1 which was a 4.7 lb loss! WOO HOO! I'm telling you I was elated and it definitely ROCKED my Monday! I tried not to blow it too bad last night while we were out and about and am back on track today! :) I noticed some NSV's lately when I…

Katheryne- Thanks for the Clomid info. My friend is on it as well and although she didn't have ovulation pain she said her pms cramps were a nightmare. My nurse did call back today and told me that with the induced ovulation the pain is more likely. Congrats on the newer pants! My NSV: I just tried on a size 42C bra that I…
-
Amy- The pain is apparently ovulation pain. I have read that it is normal in some women but not in others. I called my doctor last night and left a message that hasn't been returned yet. I did sleep with a hot compress last night and stayed home from work today to rest and feel better. I wanted to make sure that I knew…

With all the prego talk, I guess my update is right on course. Last week we stared on Clomid (50 mg) and believe you me I am feeling it this week. I noticed ovulation had occurred based on what was expected and then tonight the pain is like I'm someone's punching bag on my insides. We just hope that it all turns out right…

Okay, I stayed the same this week at 304.8. I have slipped a few times on my NO SWEETS and I can tell a difference when I do. I am still working on getting down a total of 50 pounds by Christmas. I know the 18 pounds is a lot to lose in that amount of time but it is my goal! I would like to actually get active at least…
-
Kerry- That is an awesome run! It would take me a day to walk that far! Kendal- I wouldn't be worried about what they said, I think it is the angle that it's coming from in the pic. I think you look awesome! My weigh in for this week is 304.8 which means I am down another 1.2 lbs! I call this a HUGE victory considering…
-
Well TOM decided to show up today, SURPRISE! No biggie, just means we can go forward with the baby making drugs. LOL! Cramps are killer this month for some reason and I really hope that I don't end up screwing up this weeks weigh-in because of TOM. NSV: My baggy jeans that I have been wearing just because they are OH SO…

Jumping on to catch up and I saw that someone was rooting on the Tigers in the other thread so as the local Dallasite, I have to say GO RANGERS! YOU CAN DO IT! :) Today has been a pretty good day as I went out to an amazing (but totally bad) mexican food place at lunch and made my decision before I ate so I would eat the…
-
All this talk about exercise has me wanting to get out and get some but yet, I am stuck teaching all day. I will say that I have been out and about a lot lately just doing regular stuff but I don't have that motivation once I drive my 45 minute drive home to do any kind of exercise on the ranch. Plantar Fascia keeps me…
-
I weighed in this week as 306 which has me down 1.8 lbs! WOO HOO! I am hoping to get down another 2 lbs this week as I continue with my NO sweets! :)
-
Crystal- I will have to say that is willpower to the extreme to go for celibacy. I know how it feels though and actually to prove a point to my now husband, from the last time we went 7 weeks without. It is very interesting what you can fill yourself with when that is not there to distract you. And a BIG congrats to you…
-
WOWZERS! Look at those losses! Congrats ladies! :) I want to be one of you next week. Pam: I have to say that I stick as close as possible to my calories for the day. Right now I am supposed to be at 1810 a day. I overrode it and bumped myself down to 1750 because of the change I am making this month and reducing my sugar…
-
Well, to update on how the first weekend of NO SWEETS went, I did well. I had a craving for a sweet on Saturday but resisted and ate a Sugar Free Popsicle. I am allowing those because they are not a "sweet" like I had stated of cake, cookies, candy, ice cream, etc. Yesterday, I didn't even crave them at all even with my…
-
Weigh in for the week was that I stayed the same! I do have good news, hubby has now joined MFP! I think yesterday (his first day) was a real eye opener for him. We will do this together! :)
-
Skimming through really quick to get caught up. I am telling you that this week has already kicked my butt. Monday night I started teaching my college class at night and I was exhausted when I finally got home at 10:30 pm. I walked my butt off that night and could feel the burn! I had a ton of calories left over at the end…
-
Well my weigh in for this week was up 1.4 to 307.8. After three weeks of going, I have added 3 lbs which is NOT good! I am determined to get to 50 lbs off by Christmas so I am doing a jump start in the month of October. I am doing a NO SWEETS challenge {blogged about it today at http://www.liveteachcreate.com} and am sure…

Heather, Amy, Bobbie, Crystal and Pam- Thanks so much! Hosanna- Exes suck and that is why they are just that! Don't let him ruffle your feathers, you have a wedding to look forward to!
-
Kendal- Recipe looks great! I just forwarded it to the PICKY hubby to see what he thought about it.
-
Okay, lets see if I can get back on track this week. I weighed in this weekend at 306.4 which is up 0.6. I swear that TOM affected it because I thought I had done pretty well last week. Now she is gone so we will see what this week brings. My goals right now are to get under 300 and to get under 297. I want to get under…
-
Well, I know I didn't get to check in last week but I did email in my weigh in and I'm glad I got down to where I was last week because this week I gained back 1.1 lbs and am now up to 305.8. I had a feeling I was going to gain this week. I did well on calories but went over on fat and sugar a lot this week. I wasn't…
-
Woo hoo! I will happily take "second" place as it definitely motivates me when I am in that position. I want to be a first place winner all on my own one week. I'm a competitive person and it drives me. I can thankfully say that I am not on TOM but rather just finished last week. It was my first cycle in 6 months and I was…
-
My weekly weigh in told me this morning that I am down to 306.1! That means I have now lost 31 lbs and I am so freaking happy! I have been pushing for that 30 lb mark for a few weeks now and I finally attained it! I am so sorry that I have been lax on keeping up. This was the first week back with kids and I have been worn…
-
Well sadly just like many others, my TOM showed up on Thursday. Granted this is great because it shows that things are getting regulated but I also got the influx of water retention I am guessing. I worked my booty off to try and hit 30 lbs lost this week but apparently that wasn't in the charts. I was up 1.2 this week to…
-
Oooh, TOM has arrived and reared it's ugly head! Good thing: She showed up which means that going on the birth control has begun to regulate my hormones to do what my body is supposed to do. Bad Thing(s): I want to eat everything in site; I feel bloated; I started as I was putting the new ring in this morning so it's all…
-
Amy- Thanks so much! Rainvc- Banana and Peanut butter ROCK! They are a great potassium and protein start to the day! :) Rikki- You are starting fresh today! Get back into the game, track your foods and you will succeed! Megan- Congrats on the maintenance! When I did my last 5k I did it without training at all but I also…
-
Checking in really quick. I weighed in on Friday at 308.9 which was down 2.6 lbs last week! I was PUMPED and even did my little happy dance! :) Well, then I had a retreat that I was at this weekend and didn't get to "choose" what I ate as it was provided. All of it was HEAVY in cream, oil, butter,etc. I did my best to…
