150's group...daily updates

Bummer...can't work out like usual this morning...have to drop off a car at the shop with my husband and then have committments at my son's schools...

I hate getting off my routine...glad we have an elliptical...going to have to get on it tonight after the boy's hockey.

Goal today is to stick with 1200-1300 calories in case the workout doesn't happen....

Of course I woke up starving...going for the protien bar or the oatmeal...can't decide.

Good morning and have a great day all!

So I just adjusted the goals I set in my profile since there is no way I am going to make it to 145 in April....so I moved everything up a month. I am not going to be discouraged b/c I am working out more than ever and I haven't had a carbonated drink in forever!!!

Ughh just had a BAD food day but I knew that I would. I don't even know how to log it all correctly, because I went out to eat.... Oh well. I'll just hit the gym extra hard tomorrow!

Sorry I have been MIA lately.. I haven?t fallen off the wagon or anything but kinda stepped back for the moment. My son is having his surgery done tomorrow and I have been an emotional wreck all week. I?m still holding on at 150.5 but not in the 140s yet. I plan on getting back on track after all this is overwith. Its just so hard to stay focused when I feel so much stress ya know? It sucks.. life just isnt fair, I wish he didnt have to go though this.

Morningstarfire i just wanted to let you kow my thoughts are with you and your family.. may i ask what is going on with your son?

stormsrun just stay focused and work extra at the gym no need to beat yourself up just move on...

prettybowen way to go on keeping yourself motivated you have done a great job.

i hope everyone else has a great day, make sure we get all our water in today ladies..

WOOT!!!! i've lost 5lbs since last month!!! I didnt weigh myself at all and since yesterday i triple checked and im down from 156 to 151!!! Im nearly in the 140's!!

I think being less stressed about what i ate meant i ate less and got more sleep instead of sitting up all night worrying about my body!

I also have started the lateral thigh trainer... and i have seen good results!! in just a week ive lost that excess jiggle around my obliques!

congrats emskirooni! that's awesome!

I haven't weighed myself if a while either, hoping to get good results when I go home thursday

Congrats emskirooni!! That is incredible!!! So, how is the lateral thigh trainer? Is it boring staying in one place...I guess it would be similiar to staying in place on a treadmill or something.

Anyways, I went to red lobster for lunch and got the roasted tilapia in a bag (1/2 portion) and it was AWESOME! Low cal too. I didn't check the fat though...I will do that now.

I am gong to do pilates tonight after class. I am slowly getting all the homework and stuff prepared for finals so I will soon be stress free!! WOOHOO SUMMER!

Hey I thought may I would check in here.  My weight today was 157 but my regular weigh ins is on Friday.  Maybe if I publicly post my weight it might help get down to those 140s.  I have been there a couple of times with eating healthy but it seems I stall out then fall off the wagon.  Here hoping I won't fall off again!!!!!!!!

Awesome to see people working on hitting 140s like me.  lateral thigh trainer....hmmm...I have been thinking about getting one to do in front of the TV on the rare occasions I actually have time to watch. 

that so great emskirooni, so how is the air up there at 6'1 im so green with envy..lol im 5'3

yumyum prettybowen that lunch sounds so good... have fun at your class..  have a great homeowners meeting tonight woohoo how fun, but hey im gonna walk there, put my ipod in and go, get some exercise in that way.. woohoo, not much but hey every mile counts.

hope you guys have a great rest of your day..

Feeeel like crap-o-la today, TTOM is kicking my arse.  I dunwannadiet T___T!!  How long before I get out of the "eating maintenance" rut? hmmmmmmmmmmm?

At least I should try to get on the elliptial =_=... *SIGH*  Tired and headachey, and crampy T__T.  Angsty today, hope everyone is doing better than me lol =)

:-) Happy moment for me today...

I just gave my mom a call to let her know I'd be coming home either tomorrow night or thursday morning, haven't been home since easter. She told me she'd take me SHOPPING because she noticed lat time she saw me that I've lost weight, and figured I'd need some new clothes. Well I've been working out 6 days a week since I last saw her, and I didn't join CC until after easter, so I have a feeling she'll be really surprised when she sees me tomorrow!

And I can't wait to kick her butt at the gym thursday night :-)
hee hee, I'm evil....

had a grrreat workout today, and I'm dragging my friend trish with me tomorrow.... should be good motivation for me, I always work a lot harder when I'm there with a friend. Guess I want to show off just how in shape I am now.

How everyone is enjoying beautiful weather! I know I am..

soooo still haven't made it to the gym. Last week kicked my butt.. and now I'm sick from not sleeping at all.. so all I want to do is stay in bed and watch tv. I've managed to watch what I've been eatig since friday and drop back down to 151.... only 2 lbs to go... and I think I can do it.

I think I'm going to make myself go to the gym today.. I figured out that if I get there at 7 and lift for an hour, then I can watch gilmore girls while I'm on the treadmill. (I know.. it's ridiculous... but I love that show~!)

That way I can study until around 7, then take a break and get my workout in at the same time.

Everyone sounds like they're doing really well! Keep it up guys! Only 6 days to go!

:)

I love Gilmore Girls too =3
I should just buy the seasons.

lol.. so you want to here something funny.. i think my husband loves that show more..."gilmore girl:...

my daughter is talking to the cat say i sorry salem u cant go outside..lol it so cute especially since she is just about two in that cute little voice...

well ladies i hope you have a great night i have been workign hard to get the 1.5 pounds off i gained this weekend i hope its paying off.. well night night  chat tomorrow..: )

Hey ladies! Just a quick check in! I am hanging by a thread here! TTOTM is killing me along with some personal junk! Having a rough time of it! Wish me luck!

Good Luck Everyone (Carie!!)

I finally made it to the gym today. (Yay!)

Went an hour on the treadmill and lifted the upper body stuff for about 45 minutes.

Now maybe tomorrow I'll go an do legs and Abs. :)

I'm running/walking a 5k next saturday and my running right now sucks. I had to walk a ton of it today. Oh well... maybe by next week it will be better.

(oh yeah.. and for some reason we didn't get the CW at the gym.. so I watched celebrity fit club instead.... and now my roomie won't let me watch the gilmore girls tivo-ed in the living room while I eat my dinner because he wants to watch CSI on demand. Jerk.)


Dinner Time! Have a good night everyone!

keep a hold of that thread carrie you can do it...

good luck today ladies...

Ick TTOM....I will be hitting that next week but I have noticed that I am not getting all my crazy cravings this week like I normally would so yay for me. 

You can make it Carrie.

lucky you agana no cravings... haveing ruby tuesday for lunch today.. yumyum i dont usually like them but look up there smart eating menu getting petite sirloin and green beans and a toss caesar.. all for about 465 cal.. yea sounds so yummy i cant wait for it to get here...lol soem things come up as a little more on the cc page but its all good... hope everyone is having a great day..

I do feel pretty lucky.  I think it is because I am working so hard to get a balanced diet in and not just calories so my body doesn't crave anything real bad cause its getting everything it needs.  At least thats the way I look at it.  Everyday when I pack my lunch I think "do I have enought colors in there?" meaning my colors of fruits and veggies...they say the more color the better.  Its an easy way to make sure I get a variety.

I may not have cravings but I would so eat the Ruby Tuesday food if someone put it in front of me.  Sounds delicious and for the calories I would still stay under.   Good choice Holly....way to plan it out!!!
