OK guys Friday weigh in # is 284.  Lost a total of 33.6 lbs since starting in November of last year.  Surprised Lots more to go but just think that's like carrying around 6 5lb bags of potatoes at the grocery store.  What a relief....Laughing

Now if I can just make it through going out to lunch today.....

Congrats to all on the weight loss this week. 

More and more in the coming weeks, you'll be seeing less and less of all of us. Cool

Happy Friday Everyone!

Supposed to be a beautiful one here in Tennessee.  Finally getting too cold for the pool but at least we can walk without overheating.

Kris - congratulations on the pants!  Feels great doesn't it?

Desperada - Welcome!  I am at about the same place as you. I have about 145 to lose.  We can do it!  Feel free to ask any questions.  Some advice I will give is make sure to start your day with a breakfast theat includes some protien to get you started and drink lots of water.

Hello to everyone else.  I had a rough day yesterday food wise.  The ladies in our office bought birthday cake and ice cream and since it was my birthday I kinda felt like I should participate but I did go walk almost a mile last night to counteract the extra calories.  Exercise is the part of this I am struggling with right now. 

Hope everyone has a great Thursday.

Hay ya'll hope everyone is having a great morning.  I had a revelation today and wanted to share it with everyone.  I put on a pair of pants I found in the back of my closet and GUESS WHAT..... They're too big - I mean falling off big.  Man does that feel good.  Guess that means I get to go through my closet tonight and see what else can make me feel good.  I've lost 33.6 total but only 4 of that since I've been on here.  Doesn't matter though as long as it's going away. 

Lorabear - Maybe we're twins! Laughing

Rebepi -

I have found that I really like the Nabisco 100 calorie snack packs.  You can get Oreos or Cheeze-Its and they have 100 calories already measured out in a bag.  I also like the mini Fig Newtons (130 calories).  Breakstones cottage doubles (130 calories) cottage cheese and a fruit topping are also good.  Reduced fat peanut butter (190 calories for 2 tbsp) and an apple also make a great snack and give you some protien.  I am a morning exerciser as well.  I get up at 5:30 and try to do 30 minutes and then get my son and I ready and out the door by 7.  Good luck and keep it up.  You will find what works for you.

Hey everyone.  I'm having a good day.  my mom even commented this weekend that i am more energetic than I have been in the last several months.  Maybe it's getting used to the new birth control or the weight of the rough relationship off my shoulders but I feel better.  My goal for this week is to get back in the habit of taking my vitamins every day.  Good luck every one.

 

Thanks bqueenme.  I've been a teddy bear fan all my life.  I'm looking forward and working hard.  Congratulations on your success so far.

Hi guys.  I'm Jenni.  5'5" 285 at last count.  Started at 317 last November.  Have gone through a really rough divorce this summer and need to do something just for me for a change.  I have a 10 year old son and will turn 30 in 2 weeks.  Would love to join you guys and hopefully give and get some of the motivation I need so much.  Long term goal is about 140.  Short term, i would love to be at 250 by Christmas.  Look out world, here I come.

Hi guys.  My name is Jenni and I am 5'5" and at 285 right now.  Down from 317 last November.  I had been doing LA Weight loss for a while but after going through a rough divorce this summer I lost all want to and my motivation went out the window.  I have to tell you that the new Chris Daughtery song "Over You" helped pull me out of a large slump and realize that I am so much better of by myself than I was in that relationship.  I have a wonderful son who just turned 10 in August and I will be turning 30 in 2 weeks.  I love life and look forward to loving myself more each day (something I don't think I have ever really done.  I can use all the support you guys have available and any ideas for a working single mom.  Look forward to meeting all of you and seeing "less and less" of you.
