I was 140.5 this morning. Down from 144 a week and a half ago. I feel like I am doing really well! Hope you all are doing well too!

My weight on this first weigh-in day is 141.5...I am down 2.5 lbs since I started my new diet and exercise routine on Sunday!!!!!

That makes me feel GREAT!!! My goal was to loose 2 lbs by this next Sunday and I have already beat that goal! I am going to shoot for 3 lbs down by Sunday now!!!

I hope everyone does as well!!!

I am glad to see more of you joining in!! Welcome donisharee and elle!!!

Elle- I am sooo jealous of you going to Italy, I have always wanted to go! My advice for you is to enjoy all the wonderful food they have, but just keep reminding yourself to only eat very small portions. You can still enjoy the great taste of it, but not collect as many calories. It will be hard, I know it would for me, but use the thought of not being able to log your cals as a small motivation.

hgraehl- I dont drink but like once a month and when I do I drink Vodka and diet soda, so it is not too hard for me to keep my cals that low, except when I am craving carbs!!!!  I hate carbs! They have done me in! I crave them all the time. I eat a few thinking that will satisfy the craving, but then I just want more!!! GRRR....The whole farting thing....I noticed I have been too! HAHA... my husband is a little grossed out! But I dont think that mine seem to be like yours... I dont think I need meds for it!!! :)

Hope you girls all have a great day! Keep on track and do well!!!!!  Get that exercise in and think 125!!!!!!! :)

I love it that there are more people wanting to join in!!!! That is fantastic!!

We can start our weigh-ins either this Wednesday or next... it can be up you all of you.

hgraehl- My calorie intake is set to 1300 a day right now. I have a 1800 cal. burn rate during the day plus my exercise plan is to go the gym 6 days a week and do an 30-45 min of cardio on the days I do the weight training and and hour  on the days that I do not do the weights and ab work. My weight training is just on the machines at the gym I usually do my arms one day and my legs another or if I am feeling feisty I will do a good combo of both. :)  I do my abs every day, even the days that I am not doing weights. I hope this all works. I think we should check in with each other on here everyday, or at least try to make sure that we did well on our calorie intake and that we exercised. What do you think?

Today was my first day back on track to try to loose some weight. I have just kept gaining weight a little at a time until now I am finally like.. okay... this has to stop...12 lbs in 2 years is enough! So today a mini goal that I reached was actually getting this account set up and tracked all of my meals and I actually went to the gym and worked out for an hour. I actually feel really good now!!!
