-I will make it to the gym at minimum 3 days a week -Force myself to learn resistance machines, I can't lose all this weight doing cardio alone -stay within my calorie limits and be honest on my journal -cut down to 2 cups of coffee a day -Drink my water -Stay off the scale other than once a week ugh.. same stuff I had to…

My husband is on here with me and so is my Best friend. We keep each other accountable and even though my husband doesn't go in the forums (and I rarely do) he uses my diary to help him fill his stuff in..haha so he doesn't have to look it all up himself since we eat a lot of the same things and I am the main cook.

Thanks for the tips, I don't like to use splenda, I have a problem with sugar substitutes. My applesauce does not have much added sugar, just a tiny bit as its homemade and I can control how much sugar goes into it. I have Agave so I might try that! Great idea! And thanks for the information on the Pastry flour. I just…

thanks I love pumpkin!!

I made a drink with celery in it and found the flavor way to overpowering. does anyone else find this true too?

This is a great thread! I am currently trying to detox from caffeine as I drank nearly a pot of coffee a day. I am currently on day 3 and it is SO hard. I want to start my juice fast after Christmas. I am eating more fruits than usual and waiting for my omega masticating juicer to arrive in the mail. I am excited, I feel…

Id be happy in a 10. Id love to be an 8, but I know I look good as a 10.

Michelle you are doing a fantastic job! I know you will make it to your goal! you are a very motivated woman!

Id like to wear some vintage style dresses.. they are so classy and I was never one to wear dresses but they are so adorable.

bump to look at later.. I have a small one sitting here waiting to be eaten

bump too, Im also interested in good green smoothie recipes.

^^^^^ This.. I have 5 kids, I work part time, and I go to school. I do NOT have time to make separate meals for people. I have a couple picky ones.. They have to try anything I put in front of them.. they don't have to eat it all but they must try it.. As a result, some of my kids like veggies more than others.. I try to…

I like Pinterest too.. it is addicting! and sad to say.. but www.backyardchickens.com. haha but I love my chickies!

I think you were talking about me!! haha I tried the netflix videos too and I have ZERO coordination..

I was never a runner either and the things you said in your blog are so true for me as well! It is hard for me, but i love it! I injured my foot and haven't been able to run in nearly a month and its killing me! I was training for a 5K and will probably have to walk it now but I will cross that finish line :) awesome work!…

Great job ladies!!!

Thanks! I do not have a bike but I really want one, just not in the budget right now. That would ultimately be ideal. I just have to let this heal all the way and ease back into it. It is very frustrating.

I love my Polar.. I don't even notice the chest strap is there...

Ive been on here 12 weeks and lost 20 lbs. Average of 1.666 a week. ill take it!! Its amazing how much faster the men seem to drop the lbs than us women.

Thanks Rach! This group really helped keep me accountable. Looking forward to another great round!

I have the same exact thing for breakfast and I actually measured out my PB. Have you ever done that? Because a serving is usually 2 tbsp and honestly, that is a LOT of PB. I can get away with one TBSP and its about 185 for my muffin ( I use the 90 cal sara lee ones) and 1 tbsp of peanut butter.

Awesome job! I love your shirt!!

If I can figure out how to eat that many healthy calorie I am going to up mine. MFP has it set at 1600 and I usually only net about 1300 a day. I think Ill try going a little closer to 1600 and see if the weight comes off a little better. It seems like I lose some and then it pops up again and I spend another whole week…
