Yeah another day down, and I'm tettering between 224 and 225pds.

How are you doing Rachel?

Hey there , i need all the support i can get too, lets help each other.

Hey Laura, and Grimmace,
I'm hangin in there, still being strict with myself, I'm actually surprised how disciplined I'm being and how easy this seems compared to last time, I know I really want to succeed, maybe that's motivation enough. I decided starting next week to add regular workouts in, I was working out regularly then stopped about a month ago when I moved, so I need to get back on track with that. I feel really good, have had tons of energy , how are both of you?

Hi
Glad to hear that you are doing good, I know its hard but it is so worth it. I am doing good only lost one pound this week but it still went down. I just need something like this to get me thru. My husband is a great guy but not to worried about my few extra pounds so when I do loose them he is like thats nice. Its just great to have someone to be happy with you , as you are for them.

one quick question , how did you get your photo on there i can not find out how.

to change your picture under "profile" and "Edit options" at the bottom where it says change avatar, I attached a picture the picture itself I had to make much smaller using photoshop..

I'm happy to be here to help support you and be your buddy congradulations on your losses and let's keep losing!!!!!!!!!!
-Rachel

thanks for your help, and your picture does not look like you need to loose a pound at all.
Yes we will keep loosing and we will be there for each other that always helps when you have someone to tell what you have done or not done so you feel like pushing so you are not saying i didn't do so well .
well its 1130 pm here and i have been up since 4 am so its time to shower and call it a night talk later and go for a walk this weekend and enjoy the fresh air its good for you lol
night sleep tight

Hi I'm still at 214.5 darn. But I'm hoping the scale will start moving down this week.

HI!

I finally got a scale, looks liks I've lost 5 pounds for my first week, I'm pretty happy about that, just hope it keeps coming off!

Oops I mean 224.5, I have to remember to add 10 pds to my weight cause my home scale is off by 10pds.


Yeah! 5pd's is really good for the first week

I have a scale and i am learning not to obsess over it just weigh on once a week. I am not keeping a full diary of what i eat just if i cheat and i hate writing that, so its hard to cheat. I am feeling good this week and its only monday.Well the kids are in bed time for mom to be mom and head for my hottub, talk soon.
have a good week and keep up the good work it is well worth it

Hi AriesGirl and Grimmace,

How is everyone doing? And weight loss to report? Anybody have any good recipes they want to share?

Hey Laura you got your pic up, it looks nice! I'm still at my 5 pounds loss for week 1, I'm noticing I'm eating less and staying fuller now, I still feel pretty motivated although yesterday was my boyfriends 30th birthday and I had a couple martini's no carbs, but the alcohol can slow weight loss, I also made him a decadent dark chocolate cake with caramel frosting, and I dind't have any! I don't know how I resisted, I'm amazed. I hope he eats it all soon so I don't have to look at it all day! haha. Mission Viejo is really close to me, I'm in foothill ranch, do you go to a gym or anything? I though it would be really helpful to have a workout buddy. How's the diet going for you?

Hi Rachel,

My pic is a little fussy, I'm still working on it, but thanks,
I too am eating less and having less cravings which helps me from cheating. But I'm still at 224.5, but I feel like it's gonna drop and time now.

Wow you made a cake and didn't eat any, now I'm impressed! I wouldn't trust myself.

Right now I belong to "Curves" when my membership is up in October I'm thinking about joining 24 hr, that's where my husband goes. Do you belong to any health clubs?

I haven't joined one yet, but I'm thinking of joining 24 hour.
