I'll also commit to doing exercise/keeping active for at least 30 minutes a day. I also am keeping a pedometer on me and will try for at least 8000 steps a day and trying to get to 10000 steps by December. Yesterday I got to 8300 steps but this weekend I'm on the road, soo nothing until Sunday.

I'll tackle my eating plan when I get back. I didn't plan anything for the roadtrip.

Hello everyone! I'm not shure if I can loose 30 lbs by x-mas but thats a heck of a jolly goal! I put my scale up and am going to weigh in on Nov. 1st. I am a binger. I binged last night, my goal for this month is not to binge again. Hopefully weight loss will follow!

I have been cooking with coconut oil and putting it in my tea. I drink green tea 2x a day with the oil of course. Getting used to it, it was a little funny at first.

I also try to excercise daily. I try to walk or jog(depends if my skin hurts) in the mornings, and lift weights in the afternoons. I noticed I'm getting alittle defanition in my thighs and arms, my bottom is to heavy to notice. I carry my weight in my belly, but and upper thighs. I have a lovely hour glass shape

Are we going to put our weights in or is this a bit more relaxed? How often is everyone going to post your weights?

LoveMyKit, I have to know, how on earth do you take vinager? I know its sapposed to be healthy and help weight loss, but I just cant' get past the taste of it!

Ok, I decided to commit to 10 mins vigorous exercise and 10 mins walking each day. I'm not ready to do more than that right yet. I like the idea of dancing for exercise. I may have to check that out soon. The treadmill is soooo boring.

I like the cucumbers with vinegar. That is about the only way I can handle the taste. ILoveMyKit, that is impressive that you can drink it straight. Yikes!

This was my menu yesterday. I don't really eat breakfast. Lunch I had taco salad, homemade with no chips. Dinner was shrimp in butter, garlic, and olive oil with lots of herbs, and broccoli with cheese. Had two snacks, deviled egg and 1 ounce of almonds. Lots of water. Today I will have low carb chicken wrap for lunch. Dinner is Pork Ribs with a homemade bbq rub. Salad and low carb yogurt. I find I have to plan ahead and have a variety of foods to keep it interesting.

What do you all think about with weighing in once a week? I usually have 2-3 days weight loss, followed by 2-3 days of no weight loss. I just go back and forth like that. Atleast its predictable.

I bought ACV this morning, and offered my 9 yr old a Pria Bar(he was hungry, they got out of school early) if he would drink 1 TBSP. Gosh he's a willing participant! He tried chugging it, stopped and tried to spit it out. I told him he had to swollow. He snagged the bar and ran for the bathroom. My 3 yr old wanted some, she dranki it! Did have a funny look afterwards, kind of puckered. I did try it myself, got it down, burned like hell! Wont be doing that again!! HB wouldn't go near the stuff, he was to buisy laughing at the rest of us. Worst this was my 1 yr old wanted to get in on it. I let him sniff it, that was enough, he walked away with my phone. Little thief!


I did weigh in this morning, I had been up for 2 hrs by this point. Was dressed in jogging clothes, had breakfast and weight lifted. I was at 170 lbs. I would emagine given first thing in the morning and naked, it would be a couple of lbs less. I only wanted a starting weight.

X-mas will be here before we know it! Maybe I can get them all to go for a walk this afternoon?

Kit, are you drinking your water?

im slowing on the water loss... im down to about 60 ounces a day.. i need to get back up there...[B]

I lifted weights this morning. Now for the aerobics, Hmmm , dont like that part!

I weighed in this morning 167.8 lbs. Not terrible, but still depressing because 2 weeks ago I was 5 lbs less

had cravings last night, doing good otherwise, no cravings this morning!

Hi! I would need to lose 10 lbs....

I should be able to do that in three months, right?

HI! I have the Leslie Samsones Walking DVDs, that I got at wal-mart. They are great! I will start using them once it gets to cold to go out. I didn't do any weights today, I did walk 2x a whole 45 min total. I had enthousiasm today!
I have an ab lounge, I used to use it, but living here, there is no where to keep it set up. I didn't like dragging it out of the closet, puting it together, just to take it apart and stow it away. That thing really was heavy! Mine didn't fit under my bed and I left the handles off that go on the side. Its now at my mothers house. She says she would like to work out, its collecting dust very well. I use the large ball for my ab worl out. I can fit it in my closet right ontop of my shoe rack. The kids like to play with it to.

Ketone stix finally turned a light purple color. They have been trace for days, really pissing me off! Finnaly we get somewhere!
