We did good! I don't expect high numbers this week, but we'll see. TOM just hit me and I tend to hold on to every darn drop of water out there. :sad:

We have 2 cats Phoebe and Gracie, they are mom and daughter. When they're together, I call them "The Ladies" otherwise, Phoebe is Phoebers, Phoebekins, or Phoebs. Gracie is Grace or Gray Babe.

All done with this week's challenges! I'm spent. I think I pushed myself a little too far. Tomorrow is definitely a day of rest for me. We have a family BBQ with my brother-in-law's family and his mom looks and cooks exactly like Paula Deen. I pledge 200 crunches for next week. I can try to do more but, I start school next…

I'm all done for the day. I have 2 miles left for our group challenge which I plan on doing tomorrow. I went back over my notes and that brings me to 12 miles for the group and not 10. A good mistake for the team! :) I'm having dinner with my sorority sisters tonight. I haven't seen them in ten years. I saved lots of…

I go to Fashion bug. Their bras are around $20 a piece and I love them. They can measure you too. I wear underwires and don't have a problem with them. Just make sure that they lay flat on your chest between the girls. If the underwire doesn't sit flat, they will hurt. Play around with styles and get a fun one too!

I can do 200 extra tomorrow. Has anyone done their stair climbers on a stair machine at the gym? Or did you do them on a flight of stairs at home? I'm probably making this more complicated than it should be. :)

So, I've been trying to do one globe jump all week and it's not working for me. I get super dizzy. Can I do 100 extra jumping jacks tomorrow instead?

I know this sounds a bit different but do some yoga. My legs were killing me this morning and I did the YogaWorks Beginner DVD (It's On Demand sometimes too). I was able to relax my muscles and stretch them out slowly. It really helped.

This is the recipe I was going to use for the challenge. My family LOVES it. I usually make it with Turkey Italian sausage but I think Chicken sausage would work too. :) Ingredients: Sausage, Rigatoni, Kale, Chicken Broth, and parm cheese Cook the pasta on it's own. Cut the sausage out of the casing and cook until done. (I…

Go Team! We're going to do great this week. Last week was tough but I'm off to a great start today! I didn't realize how hard drinking the water would be. Crazy. I'm pledging 10 miles this week for our team goal. Have a BEASTLY week! Honestyismydiet pledges 5 miles. wvualum pledges 5 miles. phawley13 pledge 5 miles.…

I'll do 10 miles next week too! I'll be honest, I don't mind our challenges except for Jumping jacks. Probably our easiest task, but I DISLIKE them. :noway: And I'm hoping my weight is down because Tuesday when I weighed myself I was +3! Noooo! I'm avoiding the scale until Sunday.

I'm with you on this one. 'm 32 and have been in the 200's since I had my kids 10 years ago. I want to lose about 80 pounds. I'm always looking for motivation. :wink:

I'm 5'7 too and my goal is around 150. I'm really shooting for a number that gets me into the "healthy" range on the BMI scale. We'll see how I feel when I get close, I've been in the mid 200's for a long time.

I found the crunches in the strength list. :smile:

Hello Everyone! My name is Libby, I'm 32, and I live in Illinois just a few minutes from "The Cheddar Curtain" :) I have 2 kiddos and a wonderful husband. I've been overweight most of my life. My kids came one right after the other and now that my oldest is 11, I think it is time to focus on me. I'm looking to lose 10…

I'd love to be on Team 24 if there are still spots open. I'm send a friend request too. :)

There isn't a rule that says you can't eat the pizza. :) It's good to splurge every once in awhile and it seems you have enough calories for the day that you can eat it. So go ahead. We are learning to adjust our eating habits, not deprive ourselves of our favorites. Just as long as you don't eat pizza every night, you'll…

Congrats to everyone! We are off to a great start. :)

I would love to join you. I need some cheerleaders. I'm having a rough time getting going here. I was able to talk to my doctor this week so that was good. He gave me a goal of 1500 calories a day so hopefully I will see some progress soon. You guys seem like a good group of cheerleaders. :)

Hello! I know it's a couple days into July but, if I can, I would like to join you. I'm up for the challenge!

I just started MFP this weekend so, this challenge sounds great! Count me in at 10,000 :)
