I have had a few terrible days. Mcdonalds, pizza, gas station food. Yuck! None of it even makes me happy! And Strep has been going around the house so working out has been the last thing on my mind. I feel like a failure but I really dont want to let the team down! Or myself down!

My weight today 210.

I made them and they are delicious! The cake was heavier than cake mix cupcakes but not as heavy as a brownie. It was perfect!

Cant wait to try them!

Coffee definitely, and I am in the bathroom within the hour.

When I rode for 20 minutes it told me I burnt a couple hundred. I would say 27 miles is a long ride and probably would burn quite a bit.

Your post sounds like it could have been written about my life except for a few details. But the sneaking to the kitchen when everyone is sleeping? Did it as a kid, do it now. Thinking about food constantly? Yup. Driving places just so that I can have an excuse to stop somewhere for food? Guilty. Feeling ashamed and trying…

The only one I have ever heard of is celery, which I cannot even stand to smell. But I am interested to see what others people list.

I wish there was somewhere close by to do classes, but unfortunately that would mean an hour drive round trip to the nearest town, IF there were classes that I would be able to attend. But I like the idea of getting her to do the workouts with me. Right at this moment she is watching a Jason Derulo music video on the TV…

She is walking, but she is 2, so it is slow. So I do put her in the stroller sometimes and go for a walk with her. As for sharing the cooking and chores...I have tried that route and he is rarely willing. Warning: Vent- Even when he is home all day, as soon as I walk in the house he says "whats for supper?". If he does a…

I do go for a walk on my lunch hour fairly often but my husband tells me that walking does not count because it does not make me tired so he keeps saying I need to also do a "real" work out

Sorry I am of no help but I am posting so that I can find this thread again because I had the same question.

I don't know if this was serious or not, but either way, it made me laugh! Especially the part about not being able to hold a fork. To everyone else who responded, thank you for making me feel a little less like there was something wrong with me. I do feel happy now that I was able to stop relying on food to get that…

I bought my dress a few months early but unfortunately the only dress that I liked (and boy did I love it!) was discontinued and all they had was an 18 in juniors which was too tight. But I managed to slim down enough that alterations were possible to make it fit. I couldn't fit in it now, 3 years later, though. I gained…

I count 8 ounces as a glass, so my 24 ounce bottle of water would be 3 glasses.

Thank you very much! I feel embarrassed now for not noticing that. Sorry to Jackie for me being so unobservant.

When I open this it shows june dates. My email address is ninjakitty419@hotmail.com I believe I saw you asking for that somewhere.

I posted before the start of the challenge and on August 1st, but I don't see my name on the list anywhere. Im sure among all the posts you must have missed it. Again, my weight on August 1st was 211lbs.

Hello. A couple days ago I posted my weight and said that I would let you know if it changed by today. It did. I had alot of sodium I guess over the weekend because today my weight is 211 (it was 208 when I post a couple days ago) So to be fair, my actual weight on the first day of the challenge is 211. Let's go!

This. I think that if you put it there, you should eat it, if not then, at another meal. So this is a good time to teach kids, and ourselves, not to dish up more than they are able and willing to eat. I hate this. That teaches children that veggies (or whatever they have left that they dont want to eat) is something…

You are absolutely right. What I was trying to convey in my original post was that in his mind, I was just going out for a leisurely ride. The reality was that in order to finish the 20 minutes, I was definitely pushing myself. I did find that the same route is getting easier, so now I can add to it to get the challenge…

I love and hate eating alone for the same reason. I love it because I can eat whatever I want and not feel like I am being judged. But I hate it because then I end up eating junk because there is no one there to make me feel accountable. I am so much better when there are people around. I have not yet gotten to the point…

Not me! I hate being sweaty! In all honesty though, it is nice to know that I can get the same benefits by walking, especially when it is really hot and humid out. I can walk miles. I can run maybe a block.

Way to go! My husband was just eating a pack of Ramen Noodles for lunch and I wanted one, but (without actually checking) assumed that the sodium was high so I ate two carrots with a little bit of peanut butter instead. And while I was eating that, I watched him eat his Ramen and felt like I also made the tastier choice.…

This is my first time. I will post now if that is OK. If not, message me and I will do a new weigh in on Monday to see if anything has change in 2 days. SW -208 lbs (Monday August 1) Week 1 - xxx lbs (Monday August 8) Week 2 - xxx lbs (Monday August 15) Week 3 - xxx lbs (Monday August 22) Week 4 - xxx lbs (Monday August…

I have days where I just eat and eat. It ususally is not even that I am hungry. I just finish one snack then immediatly start looking for the next one. It never lasts more than a day though

You probably eat alot because you are telling yourself "It is a treat, we don't do this much, it is fine." Which it really is OK as a sometimes thing. But then you feel sick because your body isnt used to the amount or type of food and you feel guilty. This happens to me too and I almost cry and i want to puke to undo what…

I LOVE this. I will tell myself that at every meal from now on.

I aim for 4 days a week, which is a step up from what I was doing before joining MFP. Although, I could probably count the walking, lefting, and chasing involved with my daily activities. But as far as a separate work-out, if I can do 4 in a week I am proud.

Sorry you had a terrible day! Children are cruel and don't censor their rude comments, and I definitely got teased alot for being an overweight child. But then, at some point in your adult life, you let go of at least some of your insecurities when you realize that not every person on the street is judging you. (This took…
