Welcome back! You can do it.:smile:

On your way home if your stopping for something, why not stop at the grocery store and pick up a premade meal at the deli. They have healthy options there and you can get a side salad to boot or fruit bowl. With work (and I think we all do it or have the junk food), bring in a veggie tray or fruit tray instead. We do alot…

Welcome! You will love it here.

Well 1,5 and 6 are harder ones for me. Though for #1 I haven't bought a chocolate bar at all this week at work. I know its only a 4 day work week but its a start. 5 and 6 are harder as I work all different times of the day. If I work 1pm-10pm well that like late afternoon for some. And I am really trying not to go to the…

I have to agree with you. Whilst and learnt make great sense to me too. Leigh

Love this thread! I do so love a good Brit accent, as well as a Scot's, Irish and OMG an Aussie! Oi!! lol I could listen to any of them all day. Whether I understand everything being said is moot. Lately I have been watching Sea Patrol on the telly. Its set in Australia and I think its an interesting show. Use to watch Are…

What about portion control. A kiddie size icecream cone, Halloween bag of chips. I know the feeling! I am a chocolate and salt girl then. When I first started the healthy life style (won't say diet) I allowed myself 1 treat a day. Mostly it was a chocolate chip granola bar as if I had a cookie or chocolate bar I was done…

Iam 5' 11/2" and 43 years old. Current weight is 160 lbs and would like to get to 118lb. Originally started at 178 two years ago and got down to 135lb. Plateaued and went on holidays and its slowly crept back on. WHEN I get to 118 I will have lost 60lbs..... but even if I hit 120-125 that would be good. I did feel really…

They look yummy!

If you like beer, order a Molson 67 and it taste good!:drinker: Leigh Ann From Canadian Beer News. Molson Canadian 67 is a light beer brewed to 3.0% abv with 67 calories, which the press release notes is “half the calories of a glass of wine or a single mixed drink and one-third fewer calories than light beer.” Molson…

You look amazing! You are doing a fabulous job. Thank you for the inspiration. :flowerforyou:

Just for today I turned down the doughnut at Timmies. Now Hot Chocolate its your turn. No Rolling up the Rim to Win for me!

Nicole I love it!

Feel free to add me. I have 40lbs to go. I find setting small goals are a good way to start. Saying I have to loose 60lbs was daunting but by going by increments of 5 or 10's it helps. My problem was I lost 43lbs in 2009 and then gained 35lbs last year. But I am getting back at it and am tracking it all. The good, the bad…

I count tea. I normally drink caffeine free herbal teas with nothing in them. Regular tea I can't stand. With water I count it too if I have Crystal lite (making sure to count crystal light calories as well). Though mostly I drink it without anything but ice though sometimes with a slice of lemon.

Just for today I will drink all my water and make sure I track it. 12 oz * 2 = 24 oz 24 oz * 3= 72 oz (drank this at work. 3 bottles) 8oz = 08oz Total water today 104 oz. And 2 bottles of pop (591ml each).

Good luck with your boot camp class tonight.

I resisted at the Dollar Store. They are so flipping awesome, but I didn't want to waste 400 calories on it.

Just for today I will not buy a Big Cup Reece Peanut butter cup.

Its Monday and I did an hour of ZUMBA. My daughter does dance on Mondays and the owner/ teacher asked me if I was coming tonight. I said for what? And she said for ZUMBA to benefit Heart and Stroke Foundation. Thought about it and thought what the heck. Had a great time. Really sore as I haven't exercised in along time,…

Just for Today I will try something new. I tried ZUMBA and I loved it! A little sore. Okay alot sore but will do it again.:smile:

I really like this thread.

Some good free exercises are: walking, biking, swimming (depending on the season), cross country skiing, snow showing (depends on the season). If walking outside on a trail, use the bench for squats, push ups and stretches. For items to do in your home. Use juice cans or can veggies/water, etc as weights. Use your stair at…
