Well I finally weighed my self after a weekend of MAJOR indulgement and YUCK I gained almost 3 pounds what a bummer but I’ve got my head on straight now and am doing well with diet and exercise.  I way over did it this weekend and now know that I can cheat but not go CRAZY! I was discouraged this morning when I got on the scale but it was also a slap in the face to be responsible about food.  Honestly, I enjoyed the food but it wasn’t satisfying so why did I eat so much, I think just because in my mind I though I lost this weight and now time to reward my self… I think from now on I am going to reward my self with a new pair of jeans….. skinny jeans :) 

Well Hope you are having a good Wednesday and get moving and exercise!

Well after a very successful week and making my mini goal, I celebrated a little too much this weekend and PIGGED OUT!!! It felt good to reward myself but now am paying the price :(  I am affraid to weigh myself, so am going to wait a couple of days and see what happens.  I am starting off on the right foot this morning I’ve worked out, eat a good breakfast so looks like I’m back on the ban wagon. So I know I can count on your continued support to get me to my ultimate goal of 148… I’m 5′ 8″..

Anywho, have a great MONDAY and as I always say not just to myself but to you as well. KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE PRIZE. 

I can’t believe I made it. Today I weighed in at 152.7 and I had to weigh 153.4 so I did it plus some.  It took hard work and dedication, my mini goal has been met and everyone that was competing today which was myself, my husband, my friend and her husband everyone made thier goals!  That’s awsome.  I am very proud of myself and each of us. 

Thank you for your support

Oh my gosh this is it I weigh in tomorrow for the last time for this particular challenge.  I have to weigh 153.4 to win, I weighed this morning at 153.8 so 1/2 a pound is what I need to lose today.  I think I can do it, we’ll have to wait and see what the scale says tomorrow at 1:00pm.  Thanks again for all the support and lifting me up during some days I wasn’t feeling motivated. 

I’ll let you know what happens tomorrow.

I am feeling good today, HORRAY I weigh 154.6 only 1.2 pounds to meet the challenge which ends Saturday at 1:00.

I have pushed my self hard and have been amazed at how strong I really am.  I have lost a total of 20 pounds since x-mas and am so proud of myself.  It took dedication and HARD work….. HARD work I can’t say that enough.  It’s been rough and have failed some days but jumped right back on the wagon and kept trucking along.  I have my sweet husband to thank as well he has been a big supporter and he has lost 25.  I pray I make it to my mini goal this Saturday and reach my “BIG” goal of 148 in time. 

Well hats off to everyone!  This site is a huge motivator and influence remember why you are here and what your goals are.

BE PROUD…. BE PROUD…..BE PROUD…..BE PROUD…..BE PROUD…..BE PROUD…..BE PROUD….

I am working so hard and then get on the scale today and have gained get this gained!!! 1/2 pound.  RRRRRRRR.

I’m really frustrated because I am working my buns off trying to meet this challenge I DON’T want to lose.  I am depressed because like I said I’m working so hard and yesterday there is NOTHING I did wrong.  My calorie intake was actually even a little low at 950 calories and then I burned 650 on the elliptical.  Maybe I went to low and my body is holding on to what I did get yesterday.  My average intake though is 1000 to 1200 and then always burn at least 600 calories so not sure what went wrong but PRAY I lose weight tomorrow.  ONLY 8 DAYS LEFT!   I’m freaking out and am trying to realize that I will continue to lose weight it’s just a matter if I lose enough to make the challenge. 

The only thing I can do is stay focused and do good today and not let the numbers get me down.. easier said than done, but I’ll try to keep my eye on the prize.  That’s my famous saying I should live by it too not just say it right. RIGHT.

I worked out this morning burning 625 calories so off to a good start.

Pushing, pushing my self so HARD!  I lost another .8 today so I’m down to 156 even.  Only 2.6 pounds to meet my goal for this challenge.  I want to get down to 148 though that is my ultimate goal.  I am realizing how strong I really am, I am working so hard and noticing I’m getting stronger and noticing my arms and belly are getting smaller YAHOO!!! After having 3 kids I didn’t think I would ever want to show my belly again well now it’s getting smaller and smaller :) 

This site has truely made me push and work hard for my goals and making me think before I eat because I don’t want to come on feeling like I failed.  I have so far done really well.  I must admit though my weigh in is on May 3rd and that night I’m going out for dinner and PIGGING OUT!! I can’t wait… I know that sounds so bad but I am being so good that I feel like ONE night to reward myself for my HARD work is worth it.  Then back to the grind but not so hard.  THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGEMENT!!!!!

I couldn’t belive my eye this morning I weighed 156.8 that means I lost over 2 pounds yesterday.  Although the day before I didn’t lose anything.  I am still working hard and staying focused.  I am ahead of my partner doing this challenge that makes me feel good… does that sound bad?  I hope you understand I want her to lose weight too but for the challenge I want to WIN!  My hubby is on a different challenge that he had to lose 25 in 5 weeks and he is 3 1/2 weeks into it and has already met his goal.  AMAZING!  He’s not even working out, just watching calories.  For me not so easy I have to watch everything I eat on top of workingout which I did elliptical today and burned 630 calories.  My ankles are still sore but are doing better.  Thank goodness. 

Since my hubby has been ill been popping vitamins left and right, hope that covers me I do not want to get ill. 

Thanks for all the continued support and I wish everyone a EXCELLENT day and keep your eyes focused on the prize. 

This is the worst time of day for me, I get so HUNGRY I could eat anything in site and think of all the great foods I could be eating if I weren’t on a DIET.  :( 

 I just need to remind my self that I had to work HARD today exercising and if I eat recklessly then I blow my exercise right out the window. I got a piece of gum, maybe that will fool my chewing reflexes….

I weighed .5 pound less that’s going in the right direction at least.  I weighted 159.3, I worked so HARD yesterday I was hoping for a bigger number but heck I can’t complain if it’s going down.  I worked out this morning and burned 625 calories.  Yesterday was a bit much with burning over 900 calories.  I need to stay closer to 600 per day.  My poor husband has been super ill  and I’ve been taking care of him and praying I do not get whatever he has. He’s going to the doc today to see what’s going on.  Well I’m off to start my morning with my kiddos and get the oldest off for school.
