Hi! I’m new and need motivation!

I do. Add me!

I need one too! Looking for a motivation buddy or buddies !

Bautiful Blues is still up and going? I'm so impressed guys! Way to go! I am back working this again- when I can get a chance to chart, but have to do something and have forgotten the LOWER portions I should be eating! Thanks goodness for this web sight. Hawaii trip is a huge motivation right now for me, but you guys too…

My settings are okay, although I don't want to step on the scale-HATE that thing! Just going by what it said not long ago. It's starting to show draining battery, could that be it I wonder? Do you think my workout could have possibly burned that many cals. According to mags and their samples of calories burned/hour I find…

Really? I would have thought it would come in higher since wearing the actual HR strap. :huh:

I fell off too:sad: New start tomorrow. I can't stop thinking about food when I'm only allowed 1350 cals. I'm so tired too. I'm with ya!

I've heard this complaint often! I read an orticle in one of the fitness mags, and it said it was from improper form when using the machine. Must be looking straight ahead, with back straight and not leaning on the equipment. Shoulders back, abs tight, chest up, blah, blah. To me it's hard enough to the exercise for that…

Bump:drinker:

Bump. I love your info, you look great. Can you come over and drag me to the gym?

I have the shape ups-comfy as ever for someone on their feet all the time. Trimming the olds backside, not too sure...

Can you get me excited? I'm not too motivated lately...Good for you though! Help, I need someone like you to get me movin'!:flowerforyou: Kath

Cheers gurl-you summed it up great. And the scale IS the devil!:smokin:

When you set your weight loss diary, it takes off those many cals you need to lose the weight you want to in a week. Therefore, you get to eat the extras! Don't scrimp too much, your muscles need the energy to grow. Now just to get myself moving-and not towards the fridge-and I'll be laughin!

I'm in. Starting a bit late, but better than never. CW-155 GW-150 When is weigh in?

Can I be your friend? I'm very discouraged, but proud for you. BTW this is a pic when I lost my weigt and has since put it back on. Thanks. Kath I'm only on Day 2, with a rough start.

Bump-love it

I cheated today. Day 1. I quit. Wanna cry. Hate myself.

Hey, I'm an oldie, from almost a year ago, and now am back! Sure need encouraging and hope I have the time to log my stuff! I have no friends anymore, so if you need a support Bud, I'm here! Kath Welcome all you newbies!

Oh, I'm 143.4-did the last chance workout with the show last night at the gym. I know I missed the chart. I'll try to remember on Mondays it's weigh in, right.

Taradise-prunes, metamucil, lots of water. I never realized that the whey protein drinks would be the blame, but of course-cheese! I hear ya-the worst is stepping on the scale seeing your weight up too.

Congrats to you girls! Way to go!

Hey blues! Wish I had the time to chat as much as I used to. Nights kick the *kitten* out of me. STILL friggin tired. Did have a great 2 hour workout at the gym tho yest. Today is another story. Very sore (especially the shoulder) and not too motivated. May go to the dog park later with my 2 pups. Maybe this eve I;ll be up…

Hey, what day is weigh in. Sorry, forgot to put it in as I'm on stinky night shift. Weigh in Mondays?

B2B-Love it! I'm in. I hate logging in the food, and haven't been wearing my HRM lately, but will put it on today. Of course I step on the scale and I'm a bit less today. Oh well, the hormonal fluctuations! Start puppy classes tonight, very excited. I'll probably have the retard of the class with my luck! NO MORE SUGAR…

I need to start this. And definetly need support. Been to "rehab" twice now and did great for a few months, then relapsed. So here I am again. Several pounds up and all because of aweful sugar-and I know all the bad affects it has on the body! I WILL START TODAY! :noway:

Hey j-just read back a few posts. I have my sugar/eating evenings issues that I need help with, but one thing you can try to break over your plateau is lifting weights with a different amounts of reps and heaviness of the weight. At least 3-4 x per week. Switch things up. Different exercises, types, in different order.…

Ugggh-I'm up again. It's those damn chocolate covered cranberries. Can't stop at just a few-must quit eating after supper!!!! Haaallpp!:explode:

Hey guys-you're very motivating! Worked 16 hours yesterday with OT. Nusing shortages and sick babies, especially withdrawing from drugs-our unit is full of them! Anyway, the puppy let me sleep in, so I'm gonna head to the gym. Eating, ummmm-could be better, but could be A LOT worse! Have a good one! Kath

Having a hard time getting motivated these days-it's always tomorrow. Back at work for 12 hour shifts, not much energy to do anything after. I'll see where the car takes me....hopefully not to Walmart for sugar!
