Well group, I am embarrassed to say that I did give up. My knee has gotten worse to the point that I didn't even go to work last week and subsequently I spent the entire week lying on the couch, watching TV and eating junk.... :cry: I went to see an orthopedic surgeon who has booked me in for endoscopic surgery on January…

PW: 185 CW: 187 No excuses. It was my bad decisions and I need to own them. Cheers, Alison

Well I went to a physiotherapist yesterday to see if they could help with my knee. She hooked me up to the machine and it seems to have helped a bit with the swelling. I am hoping that this is the start to recovery and I will be back burning calories soon. In the meantime, I am happy to see others doing so well. Keep up…

Wow, I will get the hang of this eventually...lol It is unlocked and should work now. Cheers, Alison

Pam.. It goes without saying that we love you and support you no matter what!! Just feel better...:flowerforyou: Cheers, Alison

I am sure you will do a fantastic job!! Thanks for keeping this going.:flowerforyou: I created another spreadsheet if anyone would like to use it to track exercise: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AoLt9QwV55iDdGdySHRxVFJaMjNGS2h6VTBEcW1rRlE Cheers, Alison

PW: 185 CW: 185 I am having a hard time losing without being able to exercise, but I made good choices this week so I expect the scale will reward me soon enough. Good luck all!! Cheers, Alsison

Thanks for the support!! :flowerforyou: My knee is still an issue, but I have been trying to get in a few slow walks. My doc says it bursitis, and has me on anti-inflammatories but it really doesn't seem to be helping. He ordered an MRI but unfortunately it may be months before I can get in. Regardless, I am keeping my…

Okay, I am up to a total of 100 minutes this week... Saturday - 40 Sunday - 30 Monday - 30 Cheers, Alsison

I think I fixed the spreadsheet. Let me know if it works this time.... https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AoLt9QwV55iDdFc4eTcwLWlFOXozOHlKck9rZGwtNmc#gid=0 Thanks, Alison

BTW... Google has a free spreadsheet creator that we could use for challenges like this. That way everyone can just follow the link and add their minutes everyday. I set one up with my minutes so anyone can feel free to add theirs to this sheet as well...…

I managed to get out for a 40 minute walk today...:smile: Cheers, Alsison

I am sorry Team # 2 but unfortunately I don't think I will be much help with this challenge....:blushing: I am working through some issues with my knee which is holding me back from exercising right now. The good news is I fully intend to help with the weigh ins. To steal a quote I saw on here a few days ago "Weight loss…

PW: 187 CW: 185 Happy Dance...:laugh: Happy Dance...:laugh: Happy Dance...:laugh: .... It may be only 2 pounds but I have felt better this week then I have in a long time. Go Team 2!!! Cheers, Alison

From a girl who has been in a happy relationship for 10+ years. Get over it and don't sweat the small stuff... There is so much more to a happy healthy relationship than a couple of inappropriate statements. That being said, no one can tell you how to feel so ultimately you have to do what makes you happy. The hard part…

Sunday Nov 4th... Another 100 squats...:tongue:

BTW... Being Canadian, I hope no one minds that I post my walks in kilometres... Cheers, Alsison

I have been suffering from bursitis of the knee which has meant that I have not been able to put in the miles that I want, but got out for a decent 2.88 kilometres today. It's a start... Cheers, Alsison

Saturday Nov 3rd... Got in my 100 squats. Did them in a row and holy doodle am I feeling it...:tongue: As far as my goal of 160... Well since I have embaressly gained weight since we started this challenge it is going to be tough to make it but I plan on trying to get as close as I can...:glasses: Cheers, Alsison

Fresh Team... Fresh Start.. Go Team 2!!!

PW: 183 CW: 187 I wasn't going to even weigh in this week as I was so embarrassed over the choices I have made so far in this challenge. Not that it is an excuse, but I have been suffering from bursitis of the knee which has stopped me from being able to work out and I have sunk into a depression and when I am depressed I…

Way to go Neon Girl !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: I am so proud of you !!!

Hi Everyone! My name is Alison and I have been a member of MFP for a few years now. This site helped me to loose a significant amount of weight a year ago but unfortunately I have put a large amount of it back on. I am wrestling with a knee injury which is preventing me from getting the exercise which I desperately need…
