My first goal is to get below 200 (I'm at 219 now), start eating healthier and drinking more water. I am coaching my daughter's softball team, I want to be able to run there laps (home runs) with them and not be dying after the first lap.

I'm up half a pound since last week, ugh where did my excitement go and my motivation? It's all gone I want it back!!! SW (for this challenge): 224.5 GW (for this challenge): 204.5 CW: 227.5 :-( Looks like I won't be making my challenge goal or even getting anywhere close to it. My new goal is now to just start losing and…

Week one is almost over, and its been a good week, maybe not weight wise but cravings wise it has. I had a craving the other night that went onto the following day, I was trying to stay away from candy since the next day was valentines and I knew what we were planning with pure kids, but that didn't make the craving any…

Welcome ladies glad we are all on this path together, in our group we watch the video together then discuss it, it's amazing how "un-alone" I am in my feelings about food and failure. I am more excited now after seeing week 1's video then I was before. I am so excited to be going through this process not only with ladies…

Had my first nsv Monday at the gym. For the first time while doing the elliptical I stayed below the risk range (not sure if that's the actual term they use but that's what it basically meant) I was still burning my average calories per min that I usually do so its not like I was going easy, that was a huge accomplishment…

Its hard for me to get outside and run, but I can get to the gym and use the treadmill, has anyone done the couch to 5k on a treadmill?

Up a pound to 225.5 a little discouraging but expected! Time to get back on track this week

I lost 2.7 slices (although I don't care for cheesecake unless it has more Strawberry's then cream cheese) but this was fun

I'm in, saved the calendar as my home screen

SW: 224.5 GW: (for this challenge) 204.5 Last weeks weight: 226.5 CW: 224.5 OK so I am starting fresh now that I am back to starting weight

SW 224.5 GW: 170 (ultimate) 204.5 (this challenge) CW: 226.5 (up half a pound from last week) It's very frustrating to keep gaining, last week I gained 2 lbs this week a half a pound, so that is progress. I am thinking it is water weight due to my muscles being worked more then they have been in a long time, and on a more…

Today was not a good calorie day, no exercise and lots of high calorie foods makes for a rough day. But I got things done that needed to get done for our upcoming trip. And the eating well I gave in to temptation and cravings. I have been doing pretty good with what i eat, and the last two weeks I have been gaining, I got…

Thank you for your reply, it calculates the same way every time I have used it and compares it with mfp, I just go with the lower one, if it was actually the higher one then great I am under even more if not then it doesn't matter because that's the one I went with.

Ok well this week was interesting, I did ok watching what I was eating and logged everything in. I drank a ton of water. I went from being lucky to drink one full cup of water everyday or two, to getting in 6-9 cups most days this past week. But I gained weight by the middle of this past week. I started at 224 but went up…

Joining a life group at church that is doing this book, so I will be starting it in a couple weeks. I'm excited

50 min of cardio today (01/11/13) and 72oz of water today, can't believe I got that much water in. A week ago I was lucky if I got one glass In a week.

First time back on the elliptical since August, I did 45 min and a little over 3 miles. I am quite proud of myself

I'm in another challenge and This is the week 1 challenge as well. Although I'm going to struggle big time, but I will do my best

thank you for your reply and support. I know exactly what you meant when you said you try to binge on something healthy and then still binged on whatever chocolate you could find. Been there done that!!!! Just did it the other night, I ate a tomato (with a little salt, which isn't healthy but it was better then a bag of…

My current weight is 223.5 Days on the Ellip: my goal is to get to the gym 2 days a week and use the elliptical each time I go, (I will be taking a pilates class at school twice a week for the next 12 weeks so I won't be at the gym as often) Challenge-- My goal is to do 2 miles in 45 min. Nutrition- for right now I am…
