am on i a team??  keep asking.  please let me know ok?

sorry penny i still did not get a chance to log on last night but will for sure this weekend. i know it will help. thanks for thinking of me.

Thank you for the tips and keep writing me. i did not log my food again yesterday. i just dont seem motivated to do it any more. i know i have to so that i can be aware of what i am really eating.  i will try again today.  howeve i did go for my walk and bike ride yesterday.  I am up to 8 times around the park and i walk to and from the park.  and i am also doing stretches. so not all is lost.  my weigh in is tomorrow for our biggest loser II here at work.  It appears not everyone is as motivated as the first time around.  But some people are losing.  I have basically maitain my wt i have been at 271 this around which is one pound up from my ending weight from first time.  so i have been on this plateau since july 18, 2008 so something has to change. 

so you never got back to me about me joining you guys.  the last time i wrote to ask if it was to late and you said you would check if some people drop. ok well since i did hear from you does that mean that it is to late? ok thanks for you time.

This is what has been happening with me, not entering my food or writing in my journal. eating stuff that i know are not good for me.  i too am trying to get back on track.  starting today.  i plan on recording my food and doing my exercises.  so lets keep in touch ok supernan.  I want my old habits to be gone but i have to continue to practrice my new habits.  right?  that thought just came to me.  it has taken us several years to built up all the old habits and now i espect my new habits to stick in just a few months. 

sounds like a lot of fun. congratulations for getting out of the 230's whatever you ar doing is working.  share your secrets.  i have been in the 270' s like for ever.  we have a biggest loser contest going on here at my work.  we just started biggest loser round two on july 11, and i just don't have the same emf. i think i am bored with my food and with would i am doing so i need new ideas.  i usually eat oatmeal for breakfast and a salad for lunch and some protein and veggies for dinner.  man writing it down and seeing it in writing it is boring, he! he! i mean i change it up a little and i try to get creative. I am just blah! i know this mood will pass but i thought i would share and get it off my chest in hopes that it will make me feel better. sorry for dumping all this on you but i think it may help you and someone else who may be feeling the same way. ok thanks for reading this i hope to hear from you soon..

thank you for replying. I will just start fresh today.  and i too am on a plateau for about three weeks.  we two more weigh in's here at work.  i am still in first place but there are a feww people coming up from behind.  i really dont care so much about winning the money just about getting back on track and staying on track after the contest is over.  my weight this morning was 274.5 which makes me up 2 pounds from last week, not to bad right?.   start wt.  306.5 my goal weight is to be under 200, ( 199)  he! he!    short term goal is to be 260 lbs.  ok everyone thanks again for this web site it has really helped me.  have a great week. i will be backkkk. 

when you carve oranges for dessert any day. or when you give your self a cheat day and can not even enjoy the food you are eating, because you feel so guilty, sucks. 

hello penny can you explain to me about journaling and you said you figured out how to read others jounals and how to jounal help me ok? please

ok thanks lonestarpenny, it is so good to have others that are in the same boat as me. well i have seven weeks of the biggest loser contest at work, which is making me worried that i will not have the support at work that i have now. so having you guys is great, however most of my time is spent at work monday thru friday which makes it easy to stay on my plan.   the good thing is that i really enjoy reading and logging on here so that too is a motivator.  so again thanks and i will be back.  ok, my weigh in is on friday so i will post my weight ok?

Tip: WALK!! Everyday on your lunch break. To a further bus stop than the one outside your door. Down a few flights of stairs to use the "restroom facilities" on a different floor. Walk over to speak to a co-worker instead of dialing their extension. Anywhere that you could walk in 15 min do not drive the car. Walk up a flight or two to do laundry on a different floor if you have communal laundry facilities. Just WALK as much as possible.

well i try to get right back to counting calories after a "bad" day.  which means having a day like today just eating whatever and when ever i want.  i am sitting here being so sick to my stomach, i normally dont eat this much but for some reason it was on.. so now i am done for the day and tomorrow is a new day. 

I to log everything, i am learn portion sizes and i want to stop picking on food when i am cooking or when cleaning up i do that too. and boy do the calories add up fast.  it is getting better.  if i am tempted to take a little bite i just make it worth  it and eat a whole portion of what ever it is and count it in my daily calorie intake. period.
