Motivation= dreaming about my chubby thighs!
So last night I had a dream about my chubby thighs...aaahhh! It was awful! It motivated me to NOT have chocolate for breakfast. I think the reason I had this dream is that last night on fb, I posted that I wanted to lose 10 pounds by my bday (April 16). Several people posted...from where?! You have no excess weight on your…

Time for a new hairdo!
I've decided I'm going to chop my hair off! About 3 years ago I had a cute little pixie cut that I loved and I was in great shape then (back when I started teaching). I also dressed nice pretty much ever day. Here I am three years later and I've kinda let my hair go a bit (it just kinda does it's own thing/not really got a…

Back at this tomorrow
OK, so I have NOT been doing so well since I've been of f of myfitnesspal. I'm starting back to counting calories tomorrow. I am also going to start going to the gym on a more routine basis because right now it is rather inconsistent. My goal is to be at my goal weight by my birthday (April 16th). I can do it :-)

What will you reward yourself with when you reach your goal
I'm really struggling these last two weeks. I'm maintaining but not losing anything :-( My diet has been pretty good but I've really slacked off on my work outs. So, when I reach my goal weight, I'd like to reward myself with something. What should it be??

Haven't logged on here in about a week and half!
OK, so I've NOT been counting my calories on MFP over the last week and half and it's funny how the scale hasn't budged since then! Also, went to my parents for the holiday weekend, and I ate more junk food in a weekend than I have in months! So, starting back tomorrow logging what I eat :-) It helps keep me honest and it…

Glad for a new start: TOMORROW!
Ok, this last week has been complete hell for diet and exercise. I've really fallen off the wagon, but I'm going to hop back on tomorrow. Last week I didn't track my calories or exercise on mfp...very sad. Also, today I don't even want to think about the number of calories I consumed. It was my father-in-law's bday and I…

Haven't been on my plan all week!
OK, so this week I've completely fallen off the wagon. I have been eating OK...not keeping track of my calories and I only worked out once this week! Yikes! Well, I should say that the reason I haven't been sticking to a strict diet and exercise program is because I'm feeling very ill. The good news is is that it's an…

Not going to sacrifice family time for exercise!
So I've decided that if I'm consistent with my workouts during the week, I can "take off" weekends from my exercise program. However, on weekends it isn't uncommon for me and my husband to play a few hours of tennis on Saturday and Sunday. Plus, I walk my dog but I'm not going to do my cardio and strength training on…

Proud of myself AND my husband!
Despite really not wanting to work out tonight, I did and it's actually a funny story really. My husband has seen me doing my at home work out program and he's been very curious about it in general. We didn't get to play tennis today because it rained so he said he has some nervous energy pent up and asked if he could do…

Ate too much today!
Well, I haven't had the best week this week in terms of diet and exercise and today I ate too much, but I'm not going to really beat myself up about it. It was my first week back to work this week (I teach 8th grade), so that was challenging. I've been really bloated for the last 3 days too...not sure what that is about…
-
To work out today or not?
Ok, so I've done REALLY well eating today AND I burned 1800 calories playing tennis yesterday AND we had no ac for the first day of school. So, should I do my 35 minutes cardio workout? I'm tired and would really just like to relax tonight. I'm also down a pound from last week :-)

ate to much today and didn't exercise too much
Not a good day for diet and exercise. All, well! I'm taking this slowly...what can I say?
-
Lost first two pounds!
Well, I've lost two pounds since Tuesday :-) I guess I've done OK for the first few days. Tomorrow I start a new exercise regime. I had a moment today where I really wanted to let myself go, but I didn't!

Gonna drop these 20 pounds!
Since getting married about 4 years ago, I've picked up 20 pounds and have desperately been trying to lose them for some time now. I'm extremely active but my diet isn't the greatest. I'm excited about this site and think it will really help me drop these pounds. A co-worker of mine introduced me to this site. I started…
