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 SW: 246 (1/14/09) LW: 213 TW: 211.8 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! |

Hello everyone! Welcome to the new additions in the last week! SW: 246 (1/14/09) LW: 213.6 TW: 213 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! |

Hello everyone! Looks like we're having a good week -- good losses or maintenance!! Amandie and Lossfat - welcome! Camismami - Welcome and congrats on your pregnancy! SW: 246 (1/14/09) LW: 216.6 TW: 213.6 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! SW: 246 (1/14/09) LW: 215.4 TW: 216.6 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. SW: 246 (1/14/09) LW: 216.4 TW: 215.4 Have a great week everyone! |

Great job this week everyone! And hello to the new additions to the group! SW: 246 (1/14/09) LW: 221.5 TW: 217.6 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. SW: 246 (1/14/09) LW: 220 TW: 221.5 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! |

Good morning everyone! SW: 246 (1/14/09) LW: 222 TW: 220 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! |

Good morning everyone! SW: 246 (1/14/09) LW: 224 TW: 222 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! |

Good morning everyone! SW: 246 (1/14/09) LW: 227 TW: 224 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! Good luck to everyone! |

SW: 246 (1/14/09) LW: 228 TW: 227 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!

Hello everyone!
SW: 246 (1/14/09) LW: 228.6 TW: 228 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! |

Good morning everyone! LW: 237.4 TW: 234.4 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! |

LW: 239 TW:237.4 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. |

Is my sodium intake too low?
You have nothing to worry about because sodium deficiency is extremely rare. In fact, there is not even an recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA... Read more
