Thank you guys. The first week is the hardest I think, but I can pat myself on the back because I picked myself back up, dusted myself off and I kept on keeping on. I appreciate you guys! Thank you for your kindness and encouragement.

I would like to join!

UGH, off the rails yesterday! Completely! I've already completed all of my weigh-in's but still, I'm having a hard time trying to forgive myself when I've blown it for a day. I go from blowing it, to really blowing it on that day. I've got to get that under control and not beat myself up.

Soooooo I’ve been so slacking on posting but.... I’ve exercised everyday for 60 mins a day doing the elliptical and tracking and logging my calories. Good job everyone on weight losses!

Jan 20 Exercise? Does running my mouth count? :smile: if not, then no Calories? No Tracking? No We have officially finished up celebrating the birthday boys 9th birthday weekend. Between snowtubing, skating, and waterparking, we have been busy and I have not been to the gym. I went to the Nike Outlet looking for…

Sillycat1975 PW 233.8 CW 233.8 Oh my gosh, those two birthday days did me in, I managed to somehow gain 2 pound back, I was down to 231. I'm hoping that it's my sodium intake. :neutral: On to a new week, I can not let two days destroy my progress.

So while I still didn’t log or really track much, I made myself get up and do 70 mins of walking while watching my 600 pound life. My heart hurts for the people on there but also reminds me of what I need to be doing to become healthier. Weigh in tomorrow 😩 I’m hoping for at least a decent number.

So I’m just going to put it out there, no exercise and crap ton of bad food today. Everyone is allowed to have a day and of happiness right? I hope the scale is kind to me since the last two days have not been awesome. But my son did have an awesome birthday.

Jan 17th Did I exercise for at least 20 mins? Yes, I decided to get off my butt tonight and do it. It's my sons birthday so I just wanted to sleep and eat cake and enjoy the day but nearing the end of the night I realized I had only taken about 3700 steps so I kicked it into high gear and made it to 10K steps in 53 mins. I…

Jan 16th Exercise? Yes I did an hour on the elliptical at the gym, I feel like at the gym it holds me accountable. Calories? Yes Tracked? Yes I am so stressed about the weekend. I have been so diligent with my calories, and now it's birthday party time. Tomorrow starts the birthday but it will carry on over until Saturday…

Jan 15th Did I exercise for at least 20 mins? Yes, I did an hour on the elliptical. Did I stay under budget? Yes Did I log? Yes I'm tired tonight, my son stayed home today because he was feeling bad. Luckily, my oldest daughter was home and I was able to go to the gym. I need a good night sleep. I have to go take my…

Jan 14 Exercise? Yes 30 mins in my living room watching my DVR episode of The Bachelor. My dogs think I’m crazy, they watched me walk around my coffee table for 2.5 miles. 😂 They literally think I have issues but I have to get the exercise in. Track? Yes Log? Yes I’m hoping for some good sleep tonight because I only…

LSU! We want the SEC to win! :smile:

Jan 13 Exercise at least 20 mins? Yes, I did an hour on the elliptical. My shins hurt :neutral: Logged? Yes Tracked? Yes Now I hope to get good sleep tonight. My son has awards day tomorrow and he's made second honors :smile: He will be 9 on Saturday and I'm worried about his birthday party. I'm excited for him, I'm…

@lacatgirl I hope you get to feeling better. Having the stomach bug bites. :cry:

Jan 12 Exercise at least 20 mins? Yes, did an hour on the elliptical. Tracked? Yes Logged? Yes Now hopefully I can rest better since I have now managed to get my 9 year old out of our bed and into his own.

Thank you! I am so goofy, I didn't even think of that, and to think, I've been doing this forever!

Jan 11........ Exercise at least 20 mins? You betcha! 😁 I made myself do it but I walked 4 miles! I really really didn’t want to! 🙄 But so glad I did! Logged? Yes Tracked? Yes I knew tomorrow was weigh in day and I also knew that I needed to get up and do something, no matter what it was. I went outside and went around the…

I need some motivation. It's been storming here and the gym closed at 9. Why would a gym close at 9? They have three clubs, you would think one of them would stay open until midnight. It's stopped raining and it's crazy but it's 69 degrees outside, I should go out there and walk before another storm starts but I just can't…

Jan 10th Exercise at least 20 mins? Yes, 30 mins elliptical, and 30 mins treadmill with incline and a very few minutes of weights. Logged? Yes Tracked? Yes Participating in this is making me do exercise, which is wonderful thing! I've been at the gym 3 times now since the New Year. I would normally go outside and go around…

You can add me! I'm all down for friends!

@craigo3154 Yes! I need to eat away from the TV, I am sure that I don't think about eating and I just eat. We have this nice formal dinning room and we don't eat in there at all. In fact no one eats together, that is something I need to do differently, move away from the TV and to the dinner table with my family.

Jan 9th Exercise at least 20 mins? Yes, 30 mins on the elitpical, 30 mins on treadmill with an incline, and I did two hours of bowling Tracked everything? Yes Logged? Yes I didn't want to to go to the gym tonight, I had to make myself go and I am so happy that I did. I literally stood in my garage at 8pm trying to reason…

I think if I gave myself some leeway, I am a black/white person, all or none, for me there is no gray area and that is where my downfall is. I need to learn that it's ok to fall down sometimes just don't forget to pick yourself up.

Jan 8th! :smile: Exercised 20 mins? YES! 45 mins and I ran almost half of that (and it feels so good to run again) But I will def. feel it in my shins tomorrow. Tracked? Yes Calories? Yes :smile: My next exercise goal is to actually go to a class at the gym. I'm looking into like a body pump or something like that, not…

So Jan 7th day :smile: Exercise? Yes I went to the gym, 23 mins of elliptical, 23 mins on the treadmill and 14 mins on a stationary bike. I don't even normally do a bike. Calories? Yes Logged? Yes Sleep? Not great. 5 hours and 30 mins. I have got to work on that. Now it's time to go out there and get it for Jan 8th. Sun is…

Jan 6th Did I exercise for 20 mins? Yes, I went bowling again with my husband and kiddo's Did I track everything? Yes Did I stay under calories? Yes, by like 5 calories. But it's still under! I went to bed around 1 am. I am a night owl by nature, I didn't get real restful sleep, tonight is a new night though.
