I am sorry :sad: that you are sore. Consider a nice warm heating pad and some Ben-gay. Don't over do it because if you are sore and tired, this may discourage you from your workout. I hope you feel better.:smile:

You go girl. Keep it up, great 1st week.:smile:

You look great and you will reach your goal of 135. Good luck:smile:

SO--Tell me how great y'all did this weekend? Well, my entire week was bad. Let just say my entire week and a half. I had loss ten pounds since being on the site. I was very proud of my accomplishment and had even changed by goal ( I do 10 pound increments). Over the last week and a half I have gained back 7 lbs. This was…

Welcome and good luck on your weight loss journey.:smile:

You know, I think that at times I am so good, determined to lose weight that I deprive myself of what I want ( a sweet). When I can't take anymore I go awol and eat "like a fool." I eat everything and anything to satisfy that craving. Maybe if I had just eaten a small amount of the sweet or whatever it was then maybe I…

I know how you feel I have cheated over the last week and gained about 6 of the 10 lbs I tried so hard to lose. The only thing to do is to get "back on the wagon" with healthy eating and exercise. Don't beat up on yourself because if you are like me you will start to feel sorry for yourself and keep cheating. Good…

Welcome and good luck on your weight lose journey.:smile:

Wow. After reading this maybe I can finally get back on track. I always start off with such enthuastism. I lost about 10 lb over a three week period. Thinking now I can do anything I want, eat everything, I gained back 6 lbs. This is my repeated story. When am I going to learn that I am not one of those people that can eat…

Possible, the alcohol turns to sugar.

Girl: If I knew I would tell you. I have the same problem. I tend to gain weight in my belly. At this point I am trying to decrease carbs ( bread, pasta), increase cardio and do toning exercise for the abdomen, situps, abdominal twist, pelvic tilts, leg lifts etc. As I get older and am permenopausal, my lower pouch is…

Hi: I love Cheerios, 1/2 banana, nut-rition (Planters mixed nuts for digestive health), skim milk. I also take two fiber tablets with this for digestive health. The combination is very filling and moderate in calories (427). Good luck :smile:

Girl, We all have those times. Don't let this discouarge you. Use that picture as motivation to get to your goal. I have a picture of myself on my cellphone and whenever I want to cheat I look at that picture and exercise. :embarassed: Pick one day out of the week as your weigh in day and record your weigh on that day…

Hi and Welcome. One of the best forms of exercise is walking. A really good exercise tape is Leslie Sansone walk at home tapes. They come in 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 mile tapes. Start with the 15 minute one mile tape and keep moving. Also look into buying a cheap pedometer and walk your way up to 10,000 steps per day. Good luck on…

Weighing yourself daily can be extremely frustrating. Our weight constantly changes due to water, food, etc. I find weighing weekly on Monday morning with no clothes on the best way to get an accurate weight. Don't get discouraged :sad: when you hit a plateau, keep up your calorie count and increase/change your exercise…

It's not 500 calories but very filling, fruit, apples, oranges, etc. that can be kept in your car. :smile:

Welcome back: Congratulations on your guy coming home safely. The adjustment will be fine. Good luck on your weight loss. :smile:
