Hey guys! So last week I was complaining about my sclae and how it kept changing my weight.. turns out it actually is broken ughh paid 60 dollars for it!!! My uncle has been testing it out all week and his weight jumps like 4 lbs per day, so I have no idea how accurate it is anymore :( I'll weigh in after work and let you…

Hey everyone! Bballgrrl I am so happy you posted what you did... I have been having the same problem. Attempting to eat a healthy lunch, but throwing something easy together last minute (and not enough) then starving by the time I get home from work and making something easy and not so healthy for dinner (ham sandwhich or…

well, here it is guys, our first weight in! I was down 138. something yesterday but I kinda had afew too many snacks and was up 139.2 this morning! Still less than 140 though! woo :)

Donairs. mmmmm.

Sounds like everyones doing an awesome job so far! I checked the scale and I'm down from where I started! woohoo :) still waiting for monday though to log it in my ticker. Our first weigh in is approaching and I'm pretty excited!

you are a very pretty girl! 33 lbs since Feb 6th?! That is awesome keep up the great work!!! You can do ANYTHING if you really put your mind to it :)

LITERALLY the exact same thing happened to me and then I put 3 lbs back on! gah!

WOW thank you so much for posting this! I'm so glad someone understands. I hate it when people tell me "oh you don't need to lose weight". I can still afford to lose 10-15 lbs and still be healthy (and a lot happier) and its the last 10 lbs that are so hard to lose! gahh.

Thanks, you too! :) I know, I only want to lose 10-15 lbs total and I'm finding it so hard to do.. I figured having a group of people aiming for the same weight loss goal at around the same time would be the push I needed! I'm So happy to have people like yourself join me! woohoo beach beauties!

And just to clarify, those are the foods I will be eating from now (8 am) until 4!... not all in one sitting haha!

Hey lobster888! So what is the biggest loser boot camp? Sounds like you had a good day! Last night was this bbq I had to attend but I loaded up on salad and nixed the bun and ate one sausage cut up in slices instead... it lasted longer than I thought so that was great :) Todays lunch at work includes :lots of water,…

haha thanks for all the ideas and advice guys.... majority rules.. looks like im skipping the bun! Thanks MFP's :)

Bballgrrl I love your idea! Here's my info: Start weight: 140, Goal weight:130 :) I like the weighing in every monday idea. That way I'll be watching more carefully over the weekend! My minichallenge for this week: lose one pound, focus on arm and shoulder exercises (alternating with crunches). I was going to try the…

another thing that helps with water intake- add crystal light (every so often) of even a lemon or something, for flavor :) Honestly though, you'll get used to the water... and you can feel the difference. I was the same and now I love ice cold water! Give it a shot :) Also, heres a cool link I found guys! enjoy :)…

Hello Everyone! :) I hope everyone survived the long weekend. I'm so excited to see more new members! I can't "re-edit" my post a second time to add names to the list... but everyone is welcome to post on here for updates/support! This weekend I did fairly well. I'm thinking about having a veggie challenge this week. My…

mmm, sounds good :) bump!

dido on the dry cereal! I had some last night... I was so hungry at about 8pm and headed straight for the cupboard. I could have went with chips... but instead I filled up on water, then had a handful of the new falvoured cheerios! tastes sweet without too many bad sugars or fats! :)

Awesome- good to have you! Well just go to the link above and write some brief info about yourself/ goals etc. After everyone does that we will go from there and discuss mini challenges we can make for our weeks!

Here is our official page guys! See you there :) http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/97657-beach-beauties ( adding new members names right now! )

Love the idea! Okay guys we are officially "2010 Beach Beauties"! I'll make a new group and post the link for you to join. Adding each other as friends might help as well! To anyone else who wants to join just comment on this thread and I will add you to the beach beauties members list! Meg :)

Awesome! I'm so excited to get started! Okay so first things first... to track each others progress we can either write in our blogs or post on this message board. What do you guys think?

Professional teeth whitening since I'll be smiling all the time once my goal is reached! :) .

1. Feeling confident 2. feeling comfortable in a swimsuit! 3. turning my flabs into abs 4. get down to my goal weight! 5. start rewarding myself with other things after my goal weight is reached.... hello teeth whitening! :)

This is the best idea I've heard all day! 100% healthy eating for a week then rewarding yourself with a "cheat meal" (and possibly a little more exercise?) ...Sounds good to me!

I always run with an ipod... listen to really upbeat songs you really enjoy and just tell yourself "okay keep running until this song is over" I slow down a bit inbetween songs (but still keep going). Try making a playlist in adnvace to avoid huge pauses. Another thing that helps me is remembering WHY I'm runnning in the…

wow thats awesome, thanks for all of the helpful tips guys! :)

Hi! I'm almost 21 years old, about 5'7 and last year I was 153lbs. I started MFP at 142lbs and I was "fine" then, I'm just trimming down so I feel better about fitting into a bridesmaids dress (aiming for 135, hoping for 130!) I don't think I could make it to 126lbs without feeling hungry all the time and guilty for eating…

bump! wow this is so helpful!

LOL its like you took the words right out of my mouth. I get hungry at night too.. its my biggest downfall. Fill up on water first, then maybe have something healthy, fruits, veggies etc. and YES brushing teeth helps so much! maybe even have a water after that too! haha, I'm kind of a newbie too so I feel your pain!

Thanks guys! Its a little frustrating when you "lose" 2lbs then add two back ( so i'm back to my starting weight :sad: )... but knowing this is normal and i'm not the only one definitely helps!:smile:
