Hi, I'm from Connecticut :D

Hi ! I'd love to join in here! I'll measure and do pictures tonite, then start the exercises. I need to lose some inches because my daughter is getting married very soon and I want to look great at the wedding! :smile: I'm psyched! Good luck everyone!

Bump :smile:

I agree with Niki... there are other things you need to focus on besides the scale. :smile: Good Luck... hang in there.... like it is said, the weight didn't happen "overnight" and won't go away overnight by some miracle. Fast and steady wins the race! :flowerforyou:

bumpity bump bump bump!! :bigsmile:

Hi Everybody!:happy: :happy: Andrea has asked me to set the new "weekly challenge", for the upcoming week, so here goes: Do at LEAST 15 minutes of a quick paced (4.0) walk EVERY day... even if you have to do a short jog-in-place. Try not to eat for at LEAST two hours before you go to bed! (I'd say try for NO EATING after…

OOPS! :blushing: I've put my last few weeks of weigh-ins on the Sassy page now though.:happy: Hope everyone has a great week... it's actually supposed to be pretty nice in CT weather-wise... can't wait for the spring weather! Hoping it will get…

Yes, I think after Friday 3/2 we move into our 4th week, right? :ohwell: Last week wasn't good for me... and then I gained 2 pounds on top of it... ugh. Must have been the stress lol :laugh: As of today I'm really trying to get back on track with my exercise and water drinking, so my fingers are crossed for better results…
-
BUMP ! :smile:
-
I also agree... just a "weekly-weigh-in" should work for everybody :happy:
-
I liked Fridays... more time for damage control after the weekends LMBO! :laugh: seriously, I'll probably "peek" on Tuesdays, but then "officially" weigh-in on Fridays like before. :wink: As long as everyone weighs in at least once a week, things should work out just fine. :flowerforyou: Hope everyone is having a nice…

you can burn some calories doing upper body cardio... why not try punches? You can do them standing if possible, or try sitting. do cross-the-body punches like in the 30 day shred dvd or Power90. It's not ideal, but it will still help. Good luck.... just don't give up and stop altogether! :flowerforyou:
-
Ha Ha Ha that's how I was looking at it too.... :bigsmile: starting.... no problem.... actually carrying though, now that's another story. :wink:

LOVE this, Karen!!! Thanks for the chuckles!!

wow, this is great! thanks for setting these ahead of time! :bigsmile:

I set my sight too high for Valentine's, but will leave it as is for our new summer challenge... ten pounds up up and away LOL! Good idea to re-*kitten* in spring, Lois... then full steam ahead for summer! Looking forward to a new weigh-in on Tuesday and then working my butt off to reach my goal. Good luck everyone!!!…
-
I am definitely in Andrea! Weighing in on Tuesday will make me be sooo much better on the weekends... not sure if that's good or bad though LMBO! I'll also help whenever I can... what will be our "ending" goal date?? Are you going for June 1st?
-
I like the "Sassy by Summer" that was mentioned... it's a cute title. :laugh: What will be our goal DATE though? Are we going for June 1st??

Andrea, you are such a sweetie! Thanks so much for starting these challenge groups and being our "leader"! i know I NEVER would have lasted this long on MFP without you and our whole group!! You guys are just what I needed.... so glad I found all of you! :flowerforyou:

Kick everyone off the TV at home, so I can do an exercise video EVERY day. 4. Encourage my daughter everyday because she just joined MFP too!!! 5. Find some healthy…

Losing over 20 pounds is amazing! You are working so hard and should be proud of yourself! :flowerforyou:

Lois, you give sooo much of yourself I'm surprised there's anything left at the end of the day! You DO deserve to be happy, for sooo many reasons! :happy: You're doing great on MFP, and I'm glad you're taking better care of YOU for a change:flowerforyou: And a great big hug right back to ya!! xo P.S. Your laugh is…

yaaay... I lost 1.4 pounds. not too shabby! :happy: unfortunately I don't think I'm going to hit the goal I set for Valentines Day, but I had to go shopping and get some new, MUCH smaller, dress pants for work, so I'm feeling pretty happy now. I went from a skin tight 16 down to a 10, and even those are a little bit loose.…
-
I'm not sure about this either... if I don't have a decent loss this week I think I'm going to try zig-zagging, but when I up my calories I think I'm going to up the exercise too with some strenth training and maybe some extra cardio stuff... that might rattle my metabolism up a bit.
-

Thanks Andrea... and no gain is good too... don't get yourself down over it. :flowerforyou: Sometimes playing with your calories works! I only lost .8, but I'm trying to look at it like "it's better than a gain"... just thought my number would be higher this past week. :embarassed: Oh well... onto next week, and will just…
