Hey all,

Good to hear people are doing well.

I am still staying at around 130-135 which makes me sad.  Since last year I was 125 by this time.

I am eating around 1300 calories a day but I am not working  out since works been really stessful.

Summer vacation starts soon and I am hoping to push myself to work out again and then see a difference.   Since I will be eating at home, I won't have chips and chocolate like we have at work.

CW: 130

I am sick this week and TOM so I hope it stays at 130 with all this tea with honey I am drinking.

Hi All,

Like Connie, I just keep staying within a 5 lbs range ... it's annoying. I took some time away from logging everything (I obsess over it sometimes, which worries me) and I maintained so that was a good thing. However, now I just feel like I'm getting "jiggly" and want to tone up.

Right now I am about 134 and range between 130 and 135 most days. I started logging again this week and I'm going to start back up wit the gym too. It's just so nice out, I want to find motivation to work out outside!

Missed you guys ... let's KIT!

 Hey,

Ashley - I have been feeling jiggly too.  I am also 133/134, was 125 last summer, started at 140 :(  I need to start logging again but so lazy.

Leah

available in Canada?

I am also trying to eliminate McDonalds entirely but not sure how, lol.

I am having a rough go.  Woke up late for work and decided to have McDonalds.

I am having trouble getting back on the wagon to be healthy and not eat chips and other crap.   Need some support :( 

My weight as of now is 136.

I hear ya on getting the added weight off by spring/summer. All my summer clothing won't fit me and I can't afford new clothing, lol.

We are getting a snow storm too supposedly here in Toronto, although with 10 degrees I doubt it.

Has this winter been harder for everyone?  Last winter I found it was so easy but then again I was more able to control what I eat, was able to afford a gym and still lived with the folks.  I am sure the economy doesn't help anything. :(

Those of us who went off the wagon a bit we will get back on track :) for me this is a second time around and I think after a second time trying I won't want to have a third. *I hope*

Hey,

Well I have been not that good.  I haven't been paying attention to my diet again.  It's all my mom's fault lol.  My dad has his 60th bday and my mom got a sushi tray, well I love sushi and I can eat tons! and I did.

So since my sodium level must have been pretty high my scale said 132.2

today, up 2.2 pds.

Plus my TOM is coming up so I am not listening to my scale.

March 20th is fast approaching (official day of Spring) I think once the weather starts to warm up (which I know I Have said every single message, just keep reminding myself) I will definitly be taking walks around my neighbourhood, not a very scenic area but oh well.

I just recently started dating someone so I started not to care about what I was eating, but I don't want to get that dreaded boyfriend fat :P

Hope everyone else is doing well.

Hey,

How is everyone doing?

I weighed myself this morning and was 2.4 pounds lighter.   I still need to work out more and can't wait for the weather to get warm and to become more walkable for me outside (I have asthma when its too cold outside)

I have 5 pounds to lose now, but really need to tone up more.

Hey guys.

SO I tried starting again but it's been difficult, since at work we have lunch weeks, and today the lunch wasn't the healthiest oh well.

I did start working out in my apartment, whcih is kind of small and it was kind of hard but manageable.  Hopefully the people downstairs won't complain :)

I weighed myself today at 132.4  Last year this time I was around 140.  So I hope I can get back on track with working out, since my eating habits I haven't had so much self control over.

hey hey.

The sinus infection was gone a week ago, went to a ENT specialist.  I have a deviated septum (meaning I will be getting surgery) thank goodness.  can't wait to deal with this problem.

Feb 1st I officially will start my plan to eat healthy.  I am not calling it a diet.

I don't work out anymore because I can't afford to join the gym and I have no room in my new apartment to work out.  Actually technically I do for yoga...but no drive at the moment.

I did a hot yoga class yesterday and it's been 2-3 months since I did it and I was wiped after only a few postures.  So I am going to try going once a week to get myself back in the frame of mind I was last year, which was WOO WORKING OUT! I used to enjoy it, now it just is painful lol.

Logged back in today...I need to start doing this everyday again.

Chattynoel: sorry to hear about the stress.

I am still struggling with eating properly again, not a lot of money for groceries so I am living off eggs for breakfast, tuna for lunch, and whatever else I can find in my pantry.  Not a lot of room to cook in my little kitchen so it makes me upset, but I am going to try my best to do this again.

SW: 130  (i am up 10 pounds from the summer)

GW: 120 or 125, whatever weight I look best at.

For me I am going to have to start eating properly, working out can't happen until I can afford to join a gym.   No room in my place to do any kind of working out.  My turbo jam videos will collect dust for now until I move into a bigger place in the future :(

Good luck everyone!

So we back to update every week?  Every sunday? Monday?

We all seem  to be going through the same thing, could this be due to the winter months when they start to approach, we get lazy and hungrier and want to eat good stuff.

I haven't worked out in awhile because my life has been so busy, and I keep saying I will start my diet again this day and this.  I've also been enjoying beer again every week and that hopefully won't be my downfall.

I will be moving out of my parents house soon and hopefully I have finally found an apartment, I used to live on my own and I think that depresses me a bit being here.  Once I Have my own place I will for sure want to start looking good again and I will have room to work out :)

Good luck everyone, I still have 5-10 pounds to lose again it just doesn't move but I need to kick start something.

I haven't weighed myself this week yet but I think I am doing well.

Half way through my 30 day Hot Yoga challenge and I think my belly has gone down significantly.   I feel better and not as bloated and trying to make healthy eating choices.  

Once I am done this challenge I will get back into my turbo jam videos and more cardio and strength excercises but I haven't done any in a month or two so it will be back to the basics.

Hello all,

So this break of mine is going to end.  Gained at least 5 -10 pounds since the summer so I am back in for losing again.   Starting October 6th I am doing a challenge called "30 days of Yoga"  Moksha yoga which is yoga in a hot room, 30 days straight.  It will be exciting and I hope that will help me lost the weight I have gained.  I have to get back to eating right.  It's so easy to throw all of it away and start eating poorly, which I have done.  Eating mcdonalds, and drinking coke.  BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD

*slaps wrist*

I have been putting off working out because I have been to lazy to go to my doctor and get a prescription for my inhaler, now I just need the motivational push.

*PUSH HARD*

That is one good thing about the end of summer...we now have the next 8 months to work on next summers body! HaHa..I love that thought, Lisseth. You just made my day!

Well I have not been on the scale since I went to Vegas and I know I have put on a few, but at least I am aware of it.. I took a few days off from the gym (since last Wed) because I got REALLY sore from a cardio class and abs class and 2 hr workout on Tues. We had a substitute trainer come in to cover my regular trainer and she kicked our butts! It was a really good workout but I felt literally like I was kicked repeatedly in the gut for the next 3-4 days..

Back to the gym today. Got some new music on my ipod to get me motivated. I don't know about you guys, but I love to listen to stuff like Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park (what I call "angry music") when I run or do the elyptical. I turn it up really loud on my ipod then I work harder and longer.

My favorite LB song to run to is "Break Stuff" ...

Just went to Publix and got my favorite thing, Blue Diamond Unsweetened Vanilla and Chocolate Almond Breeze (almond milk)...Mmmmm! If you guys havent tried this stuff, you have to! It is way better than skim milk and has only 40 cals per cup, and nothing artificial. You can add splenda to it if you like it sweet. Try it!!!

I am happy I made your day.  

I am a rocker, so I love Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit.  I much more prefer Linkin Park, I would run like crazy to LP.   I can see getting really into Break Stuff while on the elyptical.

I miss Almond Breeze, but when I tried cutting back on Sodium I had to cut that out.
