Ok, change in my afternoon snack: instead of the PBJ sandwich, I had a banana and two mini chocolate chip cookies. Hey, at least I had a banana :).

Good luck to both of you!! I forgot to post my weigh-in this morning, too. Up .3 pounds (so basically, staying the same :p). Hoping it goes in the other direction next week, before I leave for vacay. Here's my day so far: Workout: circuit training Breakfast: my usual oatmeal...

Woohoo, Sherata!! That is awesome, I love when clothes you couldn't wear suddenly fit (hoping I experience that soon :D).

Go Stacy! You can do it!

Sherata: thankfully, my workouts are the only things I've not slacked off on :). It's always the eating part that gets me LOL! But today was MUCH better: Workout: 55 min run Breakfast: my usual oatmeal, made with unsweetened almond milk (just discovered the one from Silk, yum!! Way...

Hi Diana, Unfortunately, yes LOL. My clothes are not fitting properly and I don't want to have to buy a whole new wardrobe :p. I think if I could just get to the point where my clothes are fitting nicely again, I'd be cool with maintaining. But alas, I've hit that age where the belly just...

Congrats, Suzanne! Ladies: I have a confession to make. I've been slacking in the last week and a half--I haven't been tracking as diligently and I've been really struggling with the motivation and feeling discouraged. I know I need to keep my eyes on the prize and not focus on the minutiae...

Hey everyone! Rough start to my week; I gained 1.2 pounds in my weigh-in yesterday. Boo. But not as bad as I feared and I'll just have to be a little better about not giving free reign to myself with the treats LOL. Very short post from me as today is super busy--just wanted to stop in and...

Hi ladies! Sorry, been MIA again. This'll be a quick check-in post to share my eats for today... B: oatmeal L: omelet with 2 eggs, 2 egg whites, ground turkey breast, spinach, mushrooms, and broccoli, with 3/4 cup brown rice Snack: dark chocolate, marshmallow (kinda like a s'more :))...

Hey ladies, This has been a bit of an indulgent week for me so far--I've definitely been eating things like chocolate and pastries a little more often than I should LOL. Technically, I'm not using up too many points (I've used up my AP as I go along and 4 of my WP, with 4 days left in my week)...

Welcome, Murphy!!

I'm kind of a purist when it comes to grilling my meats, so I just stick to salt and pepper so I can really taste the flavor of the meat :). Occasionally, I'll also add a bit of agave nectar to the salmon to create a bit of a glaze, but mostly I stick to salt and pepper. The dark chocolate...

Hi ladies! Halfway through the day and so far so good... Workout: 40 min run, with intervals in the last 10 min (6 points) B: my usual oatmeal MS: PBJ sandwich with thin buns L: grilled portobello sandwich with roasted red peppers and feta (I didn't know the restaurant was going to...

You go, Sherata! You've been so inspirational and I'm sure the setback last week will be nothing but a teeny bump on the road. Go get 'em this week! Melissa: today will be a good day, I can feel it! :) It's a happy weigh-in for me today: I am down 2.5 pounds from last week! Woohoo!! I...

OMG Suzanne, lots of prayers and good thoughts to you and your family. I'm so sorry :(.

Ladies, this really may be a breakthrough at last--my weight held steady from yesterday, so if this holds till tomorrow, when I weigh in, I will be 2.3 pounds lighter, woohoo!! Trying not to get ahead of myself here, but I am just so encouraged. I've really needed some reinforcement from the...

Melissa: you and I seem to be on the same exact roll lately, because when I went on the scale this morning, another pound was off that number, yeah! So I'm 2.3 pounds down from Monday, and I really, really hope I'm able to maintain it until my weigh-in day. And with that, I am going to...

Sherata: I love it! Thanks for the reassurance that this may be a breakthrough :).

OMG I was going to do that too!! Too funny :D. I love that we're going through the same thing together. Not that I want you to be going through this too, but you know what I mean--it helps to have someone who can relate :p.

Melissa: I had a similar experience. I had quite an indulgent lunch yesterday (can someone say gyro sandwich and bacon-wrapped dates? :)), and I got on the scale this morning, full expecting to see a pound or more above the number I saw yesterday (thus negating the .6 pound loss LOL), but...
