Strong songs
What song makes you feel strong/invincible during your workout? Right now, I'm digging Good Charlotte, "I Don't Wanna Be in Love."

Friday nights.........
If you could spend this Friday night anywhere you wanted, where would it be????? For me? Hubby and I would be watching the Eiffel Tower twinkle......it's only about 1 am there...... What about you?

Not to get all mushy
But I guess I'm just feeling a little sentimental today. In light of recent events, I was thinking about our huge support group here. I love the fact that everyone is supportive of one another regardless of whether you have 10 or 110 pounds to lose. There's always someone to cheer you on when you finally dropped a pound or…

So what's the plan?
I'm just thinking about the upcoming weekend....I know, I know, It's only Monday, but still....It's a holiday and I was just thinking about what I might like to do with the family on our long weekend. What are some of you guys doing? Anything fun? Anything rejuvenating? Dh and I are actually going to dinner without the…

I have rediscovered
Stir Fry! I have had it for lunch the last couple of days. I was getting sick of salads, so I thought I would try it out. I used 1 tsp of sesame oil and then added in the vegs that I had (yellow squash, broccoli, carrots, onions and green cabbage.) I also added in some sesame seeds for some extra added calories. YUMMY and…

Veggie Paks
At least that's what we call them....... Take a large piece of foil and lay it out on the counter. Cut up your veggies and place in the middle of the foil. Roll up lengthwise and then fold in the ends. Put on the grill and cook until done (this is always an estimate for us, but start with about 10 min.) Not sure if this…

All Willpower Out the Window
Welp. We have not been sleeping well over the last week and when I don't sleep, all I want to do is EAT!!! I know that I'm comforting my lack of sleep with food, but geesh. I've been in a crummy mood, even though I did exercise, which usually lifts my spirits. The exercise was just a chore. :grumble: I now know why I've…

New tunes?
Has anybody downloaded some new music that's good for working out? I know that I ask this question every little bit, but new music totally motivates me to get going. I got some great recommendations last time....I especially enjoy Liz Phair's "Extraordinary." I also got "Kryptonite." Something powerful about that song..…

Pat on the back....
I finally got on the treadmill this morning after procrastinating and putting it off.......So I was thinking.....Here's my pat on the back to those of you who got up and DID IT even though you didn't feel like doing it! :drinker: It's so ironic what an enemy our thoughts/mind can be in this whole process. With the same…

I achieved the goal....
Well, confession time............... I'm leaving for Atlanta tomorrow for a long weekend with my husband. The MAIN push to get me to start to lose weight was this trip. So, I'm happy with what I've done in 5 weeks, BUT my concern now is that our eating this weekend is going to ruin all that I've worked for so far. I want…

YUM!
What are y'all having for breakfast? I just finished an egg beater/bologna sandwich. DEEEElicious. 170 cal, but only one slice of bread.

What are you doing?
Big or little...What have you done to stay motivated to workout and eat right this week? I bought a new pair of running shoes yesterday.....I'm ready to try them out this afternoon. :smile:

What gives?
I have been working hard this week to get in a physical activity every day (treadmill, going for walk with baby in stroller, washing car and cleaning house). I've also been careful to watch my calories and not go over my limit......For all of my attention, I've been rewarded with a 1/2 lb GAIN. What's the explanation? I…

Any Secrets?
Ok. Since we're just coming off the weekend, I was wondering what are some tricks that you guys use to get through Friday-Saturday-Sunday? The weekend is particularly hard for me because everybody in the family is home.....While everyone is on their school/work schedule, I do pretty good, but on the weekend, I want to eat…

ACK!
I know I saw this question yesterday, but can't find it now. I put in a calorie count for plain chicken yesterday and I realized today that the fat grams are WRONG! Does anyone know how I can edit that info? HELP!
