Hello everyone!

Karen - isn't it great when other people start noticing?  I had to lose 30 pounds before my parents noticed, but what a great feeling!

I am going to a wedding this weekend and I bought a new dress that looks great on me (if I do say so myself Smile).  I'm anxious to see if my relatives comment.  I'll probably be devastated if they don't.

I'm a little concerned about the weigh-in next week.  Have a wedding this weekend and my little boy turns 4, so we're doing the party with grandparents, treats for daycare, etc.  I'm hoping that I can find time to exercise enough to counteract the extra calories that I'm bound to have.

Have a great week everyone!

I didn't lose as much as I would have liked to this week, but I realize that I didn't eat as well as I should have over the Memorial Day holiday.  Too many good salads, desserts, etc!  I'm determined to get serious about it this week.

Have a great week everyone!

Started my training for the second 5k which helped with the weightloss this week.  The weather has also been nicer here, so the kids and I have been going on bike rides and being more active.

Have a great week everyone!

Hello everyone!

Jodifer - great job on your record 5k!

Obviously this last week wasn't very good for me.  I didn't exercise as much as I should have.  I think that I needed a goal like I did for the 5k that I ran the previous Saturday.  So, this week I started training for another 5k that is the end of August.  My goal is to run the whole thing this time - last time I had to walk for part of it. 

Here's to a better weigh-in next week!

Welcome to everyone who joined over the last week.  Good luck on this journey! 

I ran (and walked) my first 5k on Saturday.  I'm pleased with how it turned out and can't believe that I'm already talking about doing another one.  It was a good feeling of accomplishment and also a chance to learn how I should train differently next time.

I'm very happy with my progress this week, especially after having a gain last week.  I'm still training for my 5k, which I think helps a lot with burning more calories than I'm eating.  I have been doing the 100 day Live Healthy America Challenge which ends tomorrow.  I'm really hoping that I can stay on track without that program to encourage me.

Have a great week everyone!

Looks like there are many of us in the same boat this week with a gain.

I wish I could blame it on Easter, but I actually ate well and exercised over the weekend.  THEN came Monday night and a Girls Night Out with my friends and I couldn't seem to control myself.  I ate like crazy and drank margaritas and mudslides.  Yikes... what was I thinking?  I MUST get back on the wagon!!

I hope everyone has a good week!

I'm thrilled with another 2 pound loss this week!  I've been training to RUN (I can't believe I'm saying that) a 5k on May 2 and I'm sure that added exercise preparing for that is what keeps the scale moving in the right direction for me.

Good luck to everyone!

I was on vacation last week and unable to post.  Given that I was gone for a week, I'm thrilled with a 2 pound loss over two weeks!

Good luck to everyone!

I'm feeling good about the loss this week, although my scale fluctuates so much that maybe I'll be back up again tomorrow.  I'll take what I can get!

I had a pretty good week and am starting to get used to losing 1 pound or less in a week as compared to the first weeks.  I hope you all had a good week also!

Great job linz78!!

I'm kinda bummed about only losing 0.6 pounds this week.  I know that it's still going in the right direction, but after losing 2-3 pounds per week for the first 6 weeks, this is a let down.  I also thought that I had a good week - worked out each day for at least 20 minutes (previously I had only been exercising 3-4 times per week).  Oh well - I guess it's just incentive to work harder next week.

Good luck to you all!

I feel really good about this week, but I do realize that 3 pounds in a week isn't normal.  I had a challenge yesterday... I was at a meeting with my boss and he suggested that we grab lunch at Culver's on the way back to the office.  He had a double cheeseburger, Wisconsin Cheese soup and a chocolate malt.  I had a grilled chicken sandwich (which was delicious!) and a diet pepsi.  I think it actually made him feel guilty, but I was proud of myself!

I hope everyone has a good week!

Thanks for the encouragement Nanette!  You have done great!  I'm hoping that 9 months from now I can say the same thing!

I wish it was more, but I'm happy with a loss.  My birthday was last week and I did have some cake and went out to eat, so it could have been much worse!

I would love to join your group if I can.  I think I weigh more than the rest of you, but oh well, right??  I'm 35 (for another 10 days) 5'3" and currently weigh  242.

I'm having trouble with this as well.  I can get it to work (sort of) by putting in the database number, but what if there are different sizes for the same number.  For instance, I can't get it to recognize margarine and when I put the database number in, there are at least 3 different size options.  This is frustrating, to say the least.
