Good for you!!!! Welcome...this is a great site to get encouragement and ideas. But you do have to log your food honestly and try to get some exercise in...You will be so happy with yourself if you start watching your weight before you get to college. Way to go!

Yikes....glad you escaped and got some extra cardio in there! :bigsmile:

Yep, I am right there with you. I lose one week and maintain the next week. Oh, well! I am still working at it though. Maybe I'll hit 5 lbs by the 31st...5 lbs in a month isn't too bad! Let's keep at it!

Just did my day three of the week sets...I skipped the weekend one, so I am behind a day...but I am still going. I am on wk 4 for the situps and squats and week 3 for the push ups... sit ups: 45 50 45 45 70 = 255 squats: 40 45 40 40 60 = 225 push ups: 16 21 15 15 25 = 92

Welcome...I wasn't great at journaling food either. But I have been doing this for 23 days...It doesn't take much time to do it on here, so I am more likely to do it! Good luck and keep at it. If you would like to have someone to cheer you on or cheer you up, just add me as a friend. It really helped me to have a couple…

Congrad's on your hard work! I am just 20 days in and have lost 4 lbs...slow but steady it is working for me, too! But this way I know it is not just a quick fix that can be gained back quickly, I am actually changing the way I think about food and portions...anyway. Way to go! Good luck on your last 5 lbs!!
