Sorry about the storm, I hope all is well now. Congratulations on your weight loss this week, that's great :drinker:

I spent the last 1/2 hour reading the 8 pages of post. I was looking for a new group, I feel like I already know everyone:flowerforyou: . I am married ( 22 yrs ) mother of 3 ( 2 boys ages 16 and 20, and daughter, 18 yrs) My daughter just left for college ( at a university LOL...) her second year. She was my gym partner and…

I didn't move the scale much, but when you look at the overall picture, it is a nice reminder how far we've come. :bigsmile: I'm looking forward to Septembers thread. I just ate a Double chocolate brownie.....:blushing: But I am going to Boot Camp…

so I gained one lb. Not surprise, or disappointed. I have set new goals to change up my workouts and cut out the sweets. I swear I ate dessert every day I was away. Back to the gym, new classes and more cardio. After the few weeks I've had off, hopefully my body will start the movement down the scale . I think 5 weeks on a…

I gained a 1lb. this week. :noway: Now that my vacation is over and I reached that goal of getting to Hawaii -- I am Setting new goals ... stop the desserts....all of them.

Nice Job !! Wish I could say the same, but wishing doesn't get me anywhere . You've done really great and I look forward to following the rest of your journey :bigsmile:

Hello MFP labor day friends. I haven't been logging faithfully at all, but have been watching what I'm eating on vacation. I have worked out most days at the beach and jungle gym. It was totally excellent !!:drinker: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: The waves at the beach were huge yesterday and it was all fun and games…

Hi All, No scale here to weigh in, but I've been working out , shopping, hiking or touring something every day this week. today is Beach day. So happy I started this journey. One reason I wanted to lose weight was to go on the Flying Hawaiian zipline tour.( maximum weight is 250 lbs.and you have to carry your 10 lb.…

Ive too have been pretty much stalled all summer after doing 1-2 lbs. a week for months.I spoke to the owner /trainer of my gym and he said you never drop calories back down. You're body is used to the new you routine, and to change it up a bit. So I took a week off of the gym ( hard to do mentally/ but had a pinched nerve…

I went to the beach today and spent part of it body surfing. Way fun!! Got up at 4 am, still not used to the time change and went for a walk along the beach,worked out on a jungle gym and did some lunges in the sand. Another beautiful day. There is no scale here in the house so I can't keep track of my weight, but I'm…

Good Morning, it's 5:30 AM and I'm off to my highly anticipated Vacation. I finally lost a pound !! 194 this week. I DIDN'T exercise all week, and ate more calories and lost a pound. :love: :laugh: Gotta love how the body works ! Have a great week !

Good morning, I had a blast at the Sky High Adventure course this weekend. Over came my fear of heights enough to feel secure in my vacation this week. ( there's a few pics in my profile ) I am going to Maui with my 19 year old daughter tomorrow, leaving all the men at home !! :bigsmile: We made reservations on the Flying…

Not my favorite body part....but no lift or implants for me. Take them as they are :drinker: I would just be happy to find a supportive sports bra for exercise and a beautiful lift bra for the rest of my day....Bra shopping is the WORST ! :explode: Still searching:ohwell:

Good morning !! Did Week 1 day 1 of C25K yesterday. Seemed great , now I have a pinched nerve running down my leg. So I'll spend today stretching it out. Way to put a damper on it . This weekend is my 22nd wedding Anniversary and we are planning on going to a new sky high adventure course that opened in a ski resort. (…

Great job, I looked at your profile. It's an amazing transformation :drinker:

thanks for the info. It helps to be reminded :drinker:

you've lost 27lbs. since giving birth is great ! My weight is from pregnancy too.....my oldest will be 21 next month :laugh: :laugh: and my youngest is 16. I am the shortest person in my house at 5'9" and almost the heaviest. My 16 yr. old is 6"3" and 203. So I just passed him. Now to get under the other three. I guess I…

a shot last I heard was 2 ounces....in vodka that would be 146 calories for 80 proof. I would drink water for every other drink, that usually helps me stay on track with the booze and no hangover the next day. Have fun :drinker:

I'm in....Starting weight today 195 lbs. (8-2-11) Goal weight for August 190 ( - 5 lb. loss ) Month goal - to start a running program and to stay on track while on vacation next week !! Anyone wanting to add friends I'm available :bigsmile:

good morning ! No change for me this week.:noway: I'm starting to track my sugar which I believe has something to do with my lack of movement on the scale last month. I've been eating so much fresh fruit, my sugar has been really high. So the plan is to limit the fresh fruit with more fresh veggies considerably. Hopefully…

I just spoke to a trainer an hour ago about sugar! :laugh: I've only lost 3 lbs. this month when I was losing 2 a week for 3 months. So I look back in my food journal and check the sugar report for the past 90 days. There is a HUGE spike in my sugar :sad: . I've been eating a LOT of watermelon and cantaloupe because it's…

You're doing great !!! Almost to goal...yea you !:bigsmile:

I love cheese and crackers. To change out my not so healthy version....I found Laughing Cow or Weight Watcher cheese wedges are a great snack...they only have about 35 calories and are really tasty, lots of different flavors to choose from . I take a FLAT OUT brand wrap or some version of a wrap that is low carbs and…

BEAUTIFUL !! You are doing a great job. Such an inspiration. You look incredibly happy :drinker: :bigsmile: Congratulations !
