I reach my calcium goal via, vitamins, almond milk, and a little cheese. :-) I hate regular milk so I am so glad I found an alternative that I really like! :-)

I just realized that I didn't post yesterday...there goes that point. And I know I am posting late today, but really I've only been home for about 15 minutes! I had to drive to the north end of CO to pick up my son from his dad's house after I got off work. I am so thankful for a 3 day weekend! I hope you all had a good…

There's no link. :-)

I am just having one of those days that just starts off on the wrong foot and I can't seem to get back in the right frame of mind. This morning's weigh in, and the arrival of TOM are certainly not helping matters. Thanks Tasha for your encouragement. :-) Will we have a spreadsheet for points again? I found that very…

No help from me with the weigh-in this week I am afraid. 184. Sorry.

We will miss you Becky, but you can always count on us for support. :-) *big hugs*

Emotional challenge for this week. What was your moment of clarity? What was it that made you say "Enough is enough; I am taking control of my life?" and how does remembering that help you through the emotional and life changing journey of taking off the weight? I don't believe that there was one defining moment for me.…

That's awesome Tasha!! :-)

I weighed myself this morning, and now I'm wishing I hadn't...I've GAINED 3 lbs since Wednesday. Umm wow? I think I'll ramp up the cardio and see if that gets me back on track...course some of that 3 lbs could be pms stuff...grrr. Oh well. I hope you all have had a great weekend.

Oh yeah, those hormones can really keep us from losing. I hope the changes work!!

never mind, I figured it out. :-) Tasha- Have you tried increasing the intensity of your cardio?

Question...We are supposed to be shooting for being under our sodium limit, but how do I figure out what that limit is??

I did not meet the fat goal today. Went out and had drinks and mexican food with friends. I did end up under cals though. I forgot to post yesterday, but I did end up under cals and I did those stinky push ups. :-) I hope you all have a fabulous weekend!

I forgot to report yesterday... I did the hip flexors and was under carbs. My cardio yesterday was bowling. :-) Being in a league comes in handy! Welcome to our new team member, and welcome back Becky! I have a feeling this week is going to kick my hiney, but after only a .6 weight loss, it may be exactly what I need! Rock…

Great Challenges! I'm ready for it!

Hey ladies. I won't be much help on the weigh in. only lost 0.6 lbs this week. Ah well, next time will be better! Have a great day.

Here are my points as they stand so far. :-) Still working on the calorie burn challenge 300and some calories more to burn. I can definitely do that tomorrow! Strength: Possible 6 points per person just for this challenge!! Day 1 Challenge - 50 Leg Raises (each side) *did these on Wednesday* Day 2 Challenge - 40 Squats…

Woohoo!! Always a good feeling. Keep up the good work!

You can do it, Tasha!!! Burn it girl! :-)

Emotional Challenge: What excuses have you made (to yourself or others) in the past for your weight, and how do you stop yourself from falling back into the "I am heavy because...." attitude? I've always used the" I've had three kids, and that's why I weigh so much now." excuse. It's so not true. I reached my weight by…

Welcome to the team!!! :-)

Thanks! :-) Those sound challenging!

And what are "up and downs" ??

Tasha, I wish I could do my yoga, but I'm having a flare up of bursitis in my shoulder and yoga is totally out until it clears up. Makes me sad since yoga was my favorite workout. I'm just planning on doing 2 30min sessions of walking today, and maybe some step-ups and crunches, and whatever strength challenge I can manage.

Okay, those 40 squats about killed me. :-)

Thanks Tasha! It has really helped having the support of you guys...ummm, gals. :-) I hope you all have a great weekend!

Hi! Great challenges this week. I think I'll set my goal at 2500 calories. :-) I'll try to get on more this week. Was just a little nuts and stressful last week trying to get all my classroom stuff together and having all three kiddos, and then my youngest going to live with his dad. Hopefully this week (even though it's…
