Good morning everyone. It's 5:30am here and I've been awake for an hour and a half so I thought I might as well get up and say good morning!! Although not so good for me...what the heck am I doing up?!?! I'd like to get to know my fellow Blue Team better so I thought I'd post 3 things about me you probably don't know and…

Thanks everyone for your encouragment!

Woo Hoo!! :drinker: I just have to toot my own horn for a second here. I started this 6 weeks ago today and I am officially down 10lbs as of today! In the past if I had lost weight this slow I would have given up by now!! I know feel this is the right way to do it and I'm ready to do it right this time and keep it off!!…

I too lost 5lbs in my first week and have been pretty steady at 1 to 1.5 lbs a week since. I think it's just so new to your body and most of it is water weight. I would stick with it and see if it slows down before adding anymore calories.

Is it just a coincidence? Everytime I open this thread the ad on the top is for fragrances!!....lol.

Hope everyone had a great weekend! It's Sunday night and I'm on my way to bed. It's been a fairly successful weekend. Did ok on cals and exercise. Hopefully the scale this week will show my efforts! A new toy I got that will help burn some calories is Dance Dance Revolution for my Nintendo Wii. It's alot of fun and I work…

You should go to a doctor immediatly. My sister in law just got out of the hospital after being in for 2 months. Her symptoms started out as you're describing. For the life of me I can't remember what it was called that she had.....something something syndrome. It was very hard to diagnose. Better to be safe than sorry.

A receipe book holder would also work. Available at any kitchen store.

I too am sure you'll be fine. Always good to get checked out though. I will send some positive thought for you. :heart:

Happy Saturday everyone. I'm going to try going to the gym again today....hope my knee can take it. I'm going to avoid running and try not to do anything that might make it worse. I'm going out for dinner tonight with a bunch of girls so I have to burn some calories unless I want a salad for dinner!! I find it so hard to…

I've read that whatever you focus your thoughts or energy on is what you're going to get. So if you're looking at a fat picture you're more likely to get fat. If you're looking at a healthier version of yourself you're more likely to get healthy. Same with losing weight. If you try to lose weight you will only result in…

AArrgg!!!! Well I've been doing great exercising way more for the last 3 weeks. But I've noticed that is is getting harder to keep my HR in the fat burning zone without working harder. This is a good thing of course but I've been jogging on the treadmill during my workout and I now seem to have hurt my knees!!!! I've never…

I would really like to be married again one day. My marriage wasn't great but there were some great things about it that I miss. For now being single is easiest for me. And after reading other threads about the lack of support during weight loss people are getting it reminds me how nice it is to not have someone eating a…

Great job losers!!!!:bigsmile:

Jeff...you sound like you have such a fun life!!!....lol. I would love to live closer to a major center like New York. So much to do!!! Oh well, I better get out of my igloo and go feed my dog sled team..:ohwell: ...lol.

They're made by Old Dutch. The only 3 ingredients are cornmeal, vegtable oil, and salt. Sounds gross but I love them. For a 4 cup serving they are 300 cals. I usually split it into 2 cup or 1 cup servings though. 150cals or 75 cals isn't too bad to help me through a salt fix....lol.

This sounds bad but I eat popcorn twists instead of chips to get my fix. They still aren't healthy by any means but you can have soooo many for the same calories as chips. So I eat a small bowl of them...am satisfied and it's the same amount of calories as 6 chips or so. Works for me. I buy them in a big bag and then…

Every 2 weeks I give myself a cheat day. I eat everything and anything I want for that day only. I go waaaayyyy over my calories for that day. I haven't noticed it effect my weight loss in a negative way yet. And it keeps me sane!!!

Welcome from a fellow Canadian. I'm in BC too....just alot more north of you!!! Best of luck!!

I couldn't agree more. I don't think will power is what we need. All will power does is make us feel like failures when we cave on something. No one has will power 24/7.

I talk on the phone a cazillion times a day!! I work from home in sales though so it's kinda my job. :grumble:

I use: Fantastical Bubbles....any rolls or protruding parts on my belly :bigsmile: I add the word bears to any feelings I think my dogs have...like...do you have grumpybears today? Wow, you're a sleepybear this morning!! (pathetic I know) :smile: Bunky.....instead of this sucks...this is bunky. That's all I can think of…

Morning Everyone, May Marie...glad you got to see the Biggest Loser show. Especially when you're part of this contest!!:bigsmile: ThisisJeffHere....Awesome job on the kickboxing!!! I'm sure you'll do fine tonight at dinner. I think as long as we are conscious of what we're eating we usually do fine. It's when we're not…

A rock wall at a gym sounds awesome!!! I wish we had something like that up here!!! Sounds like fun!! Shauna:flowerforyou:

Prince George, British Columbia, Canada here.

I haven't made up my mind on who to route for yet. That thing on their arm I think they said was made by Nike. Maybe try their web site?.....not sure...just an idea. It was a great show though...not sure if I'm just a suck or not but boy...I think I cried like 10 times!!!!!:cry: I'm such a suck!!

OK, this is a big one for me. My sweet tooth is HUGE!!! -sugar free jello -sugar free jello pudding cups -yogurt with grapes in it -Skinny Cow IceCream bars..any kind -Bryers Sugar Free ice cream cups -100 calorie Cadbury Thin Chocolate bar -sugar free werthers candies -sugar free twizzlers red licorice Do I need to go…

122 doesn't sound too low at all for working in the fat burning zone. Of course it all depends on your age though. for me my fat burning zone is between 120 and 134 acording to my HRM and to the chart at the gym. I do cardio for an hour or so trying to keep my HR in that zone for at least 50 minutes. It's working well for…

I was thinking....what do you guys think about doing a weekly thread instead of a daily thread? We are all in so many different time zones and someone may want some support or to offer some support and everyone else is already in bed for the day. Then the next morning a new thread is started and they never really get to be…

Generally I like scarry or suspensful movies. But my fav has to be The Notebook.....seen it 5 times and cried every one of them!!
