Starting it in the morning. I have at least 40lbs to lose. Hope I can get back into the groove of eating right and exercising after many years.

Yay, finally people like me- missery loves company. I am a return student. I graduated college in 2009, unable to find a job in my field, I decided to go back to school. I am working on my RN while working for an ambulance company on swing shifts. I am "single" (not married, with a live in complicated relationship). I pay…

So, I've eaten good all day today :D, not had much water though. Got to get some in before Zumba at 6! Wore my fancy new heart rate monitor last night... hopefully this really is a more accurate read on what I am burning. So far 2 for 2 on workout schedule accomplishments lol... baby steps here. Made a new recipe last…

GuamGrly: Thanks, I started back tonight to working out. I planned out everyday of working out! Now, just to see what my work schedules due to change it. My plan is to just keep rearranging it and make it happen! Glad you can sleep late. A friend of mine is a teacher …so, she has been getting up at 5:30 for the last month……

Okay, trying to come back.... July was an awfully bad month for me. I really hope to let August be my month of inspiration. I have to get my butt in high gear before September! Maybe, if I set a routine and stick to it, I will be a little more adapted by then. Plus I have to fit in my clinical scrubs better! Those things…

Meagalayne: What is the purspose of the chia and where do you get it from? And FYI, I think I am about to become a website stalker lol! katheats.com is AMAZING:love: . I only had a few minutes to look, but I am definitely going back. anita & maria: Try it! You don't know what you are missing. Add some nuts if you have…

anitanz: I love mine with peanut butter on its own or you can add a little honey to it. I like to sugar splerge sometimes and add a little bit of blackberry jam. Cinnamon and a sweetener package is a go to also. Tjradd and Maria: thanks for the welcome back! Think I am going to follow in the footsteps of you ladies and add…

Okay, so much stuff has been going on that I lost track of being able to read post and log in... which also affected my ability to stay on track. As for my June goals: 64 oz water/day-with about 2 days I didnt jog/run 35 miles-try about 8 lol walk dogs at least 10-my poor babies only got walked about 4 times No sodas-good…

peanut butter, avocado, cheese, things like that are good for you high calorie snacks that wont require you to eat a ton ...

I buy a few frozen meals and add veggies and stuff to them. On nights I have time to really cook, I make a large meal and bulk it up with healthy items. After we eat, I package it up into a freezer containers with enough to serve 2. Then, I do the same thing the next time I cook. Pretty soon you have a freezer full of…

I wish this was offered somewhere near me.... hmm: Where can I get those videos?

Check in time :D So, from last week's weigh-in 176.3 to this week's 175.2, I lost 1.1 lbs. Sad only a little b/c I gained a lot so fast, but stoked I at least had a loss. I feel like I have excuses for the days I haven't exercised. I really and truly wanted to yesterday, but I was supposed to be having a treadmill…

Ok, so didn't eat the best the other day with my grandmother. We did have a good visit though. It is harder now that it ever has been with her. She just had a brain tumor removed in Feb so we are working getting her taste and memory back still. She is still very confused also. Makes it very difficult when I do see her.…

Mandy: :blushing: No, it was nothing like that. lol My boyfriend knows he has nothing to worry about. His friend just knows how much I have been working out and trying to get in better shape. I think he sympatizes with me a little because he has tasted my cooking and knows how good it is. :laugh: Sorry had to toot my own…

Awesome... I had sort of something similar. My boyfriend's bestfriend told me that he could see my working out paying off. *I am new to this thread, but not new to working out.* I have been doing this for a while, just not with enough ummph I guess... So here goes my continuation of giving it some ummph!

Okay, so I still dont know ANYONES name lol... so sorry. mkingraham: I don't do 2.5 everyday... just did yesterday. I had a morning Zumb class, afternoon total body class, and evening Zumba class... I was so suprised that my body wasnt exhausted yesterday. I seemed to have unknown energy. Who knows where is came from... I…

imarunner: I really don' t have a problem with giving up pizza or McDs, but I will with you! :laugh: I need to try to give up Mexican food. I know I will have it once this month, but other than that I will try to be strong..... As for me, I have not done the greatest so far... but working on it. Working out, I have started…

Thank you so much for the awesome welcome! I started out Jan 2010 at 184... the highest I have been in my entire life! I got down to 167 in Jan 2011 and back up to 176.3 today. :cry: I have already gone from a DD to a D, so just a little more loss will be perfect! I just dont want to be flat chested lol.... and definitely…

Okay, so I realize today is about half way through the month, but I would love to join if y'all will have me... and by that "y'all" statement I'm sure you can guess I'm from the south.... Introduction time: My name is Krista. I am 24 and live in Louisiana. 5'1" and as of this morning 178.3 lbs (10 lb gain in 3 weeks, I…

That is what I had planned, but once I cut into it I saw it had gone bad :( Now I'm having 3 hard boiled eggs with 3 cherry tomatoes (part of planned lunch and part of afternoon snack)

Okay... so unfortunately I guess I won't be following through with this challenge... I hate starting a new thread for every week. I know it may sound stupid, but just one of those things. Good luck to all of you in the rest of your journey! I am going to continue on as well... just not with the threads. :D

Okay... so after two cups of coffee this morning I'm weighing in.... 167.4 ... so I am counting it as 166.8 to take away a little for the coffee weight... Hope everyone is doing well... How did the first week go for everyone? What are your plans to stay strong for the weekend? I have a charity crawfish boil tonight between…

bump

Know this: I don't wear outfits like this... it was what I could find that would show the most actual skin without being inappropriate.

Okay, so I created a photobucket account just for this... I have never added pictures so please be patient... and they are sure to make you lose your dinner! See, I'm helping with your weightloss already! Okay... well they are HUGE... so I have to figure out how to make them smaller. :D
