Sure, I have less than stellar days, but it's my overall progress that counts and I always draw inspiration from you and this thread, so thank you all.

Oh, Gemme.....

I'm so glad we're all here for each other.



I hope that you're having luck keepin your sugar under control

*wink wink*




As for me....Monday is my official weigh day....last week I only lost 0.2 lbs.

Anywho, I weighed yesterday b/c I knew today was Valentines and that my sweetie and I would have chinese or thai or something outrageous and I didn't want one meal of cheating to make me feel like I screwed the whole week up

This way I have an entire week to make up for today's cheating. LOL

SOOOOOOO


Duh duh duhhhhhhh *key drumroll*

GUESS WHO IS FINALLY IN THE 360's????????

368.8

That's 23.2 lbs down in 5.5 weeks!!!!!!!!!

WHOOO HOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

I honestly didn't think I could ever stick with something good for me this long. I have learned to pick myself back up after a fall down and to allow myself to cheat now and again.

I love all of you so much.

Seriously.

Nice job. You don't have to be perfect, just very good.

The weekend did not go well for me in terms of my eating.

The demon demanded carbs... crunchy, salty carbs.

Hence, the half-eaten bag of chips I tossed in the trash this morning. Coming on the tail end of Mexican Thursday night, some queso/pretzel bread thing Friday night, the "Gadzooks" ice cream that Jess left in the freezer... well, I feel like ass this morning.

Today will be a better day

On the bright side of things, Jess took me shopping over the weekend... I am down ANOTHER clothes size. I have to readjust my thinking to my new size - I am so accustomed to walking to the rack and grabbing - heaven forbid I try it on. I had to exchange several things yesterday for a smaller size. Yay!

I also have on a belt today - as an accessory rather than a necessity. I can't tell you how long its been since I was ok with a belt.

It feels pretty good

Hey all..

I have a question for anyone who is a member of the Biggest Loser Club (the online group): are all the meal options omnivore or are there other options?

I actually had a day when I was under 100%.

Yeah, the sugar demon has been whispering/whining/screaming in my ear for about a week now. Blech. I shall conquer it....one day.

Congrats on getting healthier and dropping some weight in the process!

They have a vegetarian option

When you first set up your acct it asks you what your preferences are. I clicked low sodium, no fish...since I hate seafood.

They had a vegetarian thing you could select as one of your options.

Hope this helps

Hey all.. a couple of questions (I ask here since I may not make it tomorrow night):

First: for those that live in apartments, how do you deal with doing exercises while being respectful of neighbours below? I've been doing my workouts but am conscious of neighbours below and not wanting them to listen to me tromp about.

Second: I was at a blog recently and the author was photographing what they ate as a method of tracking stuff but also to be visually aware of what is eaten in the day. They would then post it to see what people thought of the meals. I was curious what others thought of this (I'm contemplating either doing a thread or blog entries on this)
