Teresita

Bandida you are going to make me go get a Tae Bo tape. I use to do them and it was great exercise. You really work a diffrent set of muscles. I remember feeling stronger and I had more energy after doing his tapes. The gym is in my office building so I just come in early. I hope I get an opportunity to go back at lunch.

Avilla go delete all that space in your signature block. Is that gain from last Tuesday or yesterday?

Congratulations and Welcome Aboard Go check out the food section there are lots of great ideas in there. I did and still do slimfast because it is quick and easy.

Good Morning I hope everyone had a great evening. Mine was a bit iffy but I was very productive. I did not exercise but I stayed busy so I wouldn't keep eating. I ran errands, cleaned up and sorted bills. Oh what fun. I went to the gym this morning. I am stressed so pray that I don't eat everything today. I have weigh in tonight and I am concerned. LOL

You have my vote!!

Bandida I was just in your journal and I love it. Big squishies to you:welldone2:

Come on you guys WE ARE GOING TO DO THIS!!!! We are all going to feel great about what we have accomplished through the winter and into the Spring. We are going to be ready to drop those coates this Summer and feel great!! People we have to put EVERYTHING together to make it work and do it EVERYDAY!!! You can’t do 1 thing today and not tomorrow then at the end of the week complain that nothing is working. WORD FOR THE DAY …..CONSISTENCY (the ability to maintain a particular standard or repeat a particular task with minimal variation)

CONGRATULATIONS ON THE NON SMOKING!!!!! WOOOOHOOO

OOOOhhhhhhh I wanna know what daddy brought back from Mexico Girl that kickboxing is going to really change that body.

Your body is smart and it thought you were going through starvation. Just feed it the calories it needs and keep on moving it. LOL

WOOOOHOOOOOO!!!!!!

You ARE doing it!!!!!!

Meat dear, you really should not be eating meat yet. Allow your stomach to heal first.

You go Sheila. I am so happy you got your band. Are you walking yet to get your exercise in? Do the eating right, walking and water together and you will be hotter then hot this Summer.

I am happy to say I went to the gym Saturday and Sunday. I am not happy to say that I ate some serious caloric cookies Sunday but I will not do that again. MOVING FORWARD!!! I also ran up and down the stairs a few times yesterday.

Bandida keep doing what you are doing, you are a real motivator. LapBandFan Welcome Back. Your plan sound great, just remember...... WORD FOR THE DAY …..CONSISTENCY (the ability to maintain a particular standard or repeat a particular task with minimal variation)

WORD FOR THE DAY …..CONSISTENCY (the ability to maintain a particular standard or repeat a particular task with minimal variation) People Exercise Everyday it is not an option. Eat right, if you don’t know what to eat, ask for help. Measurements- I need everyone to take measurements. Take as many as possible but take your waist if nothing else. We can’t let the scale always determine our mood for the day or week. The scale can make us eat wrong or not exercise out of discouragement but we have to learn how to get pass that to get to our goals. ARE YOU LISTENING!!!!! I do want you guys to start tracking your weight loss. If you can do it weekly great. If bi weekly or monthly is what you can do, I’ll take it. We know what to do and now we need to see what we are doing. ENCOURGEMENT is what we need and will give to make this journey. It is not easy so if you fall off please, please, please ask for help. If you go MIA we are going to come looking for you to pick you up, throw you over a shoulder and run with you. We are going to make it to Spring TOGETHER!!!! BOOYAAAAAA

WOW I really enjoyed reading all the post. You guys are doing an inedible job encouraging each other. That is what it is all about. Keep it up; we can motivate some serious pounds off of each other.:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: Avilla I applaud you, that is what I am here for. To get in your head and make you move it. Come on girl 1 pound down is GREAT!!!! Your body has a lot of adjusting to do to lose a pound so give it some positive words of encouragement. When the scale doesn’t say what you want it to say. Kick it up a notch, if you do 30 minutes of exercise, later that day run up and down the stairs a few times and get that heart rate up for a few minutes each day. Ariel walking around campus is great exercise. Do you have a pedometer to see how many steps you are walking? Great job on staying away from that pizza. If you have difficulty with finding things to eat on mushies just ask somebody or check the food section. Keep up the great work. Morning great job on posting your food and calories. What about the Cadbury ….calories please? Keep up your streaking and you will see that scale go down. Morning I saw that about the Water. I heard that before because that is not the first time it has happened. A personal trainer told me that you should just drink water all down, not guzzle it. Morning I see you have a lot on your plate (no pun). Pray on the situation first and look at the positive at all times. I am here for when you want to babble. You have my number, just call me. Niecyrenee great job on the water. Keep on drinking because dehydration just messes with all your organs. I hope you got your dancing in. Kathyb CONGRATULATIONS ON THE 40 POUND LOST!!! WOOOHOOO!!! I am happy to see your are motivated and walking the walk…Get It!!!! Bandida Great job on posting your food. I am so happy to see you got some exercise in. Kareyquilts Great job!!!!! No I did not see the MOVIE popcorn. Hey you may need to talk to your doctor about your energy level. Journal your food, exercise, water and your moods and how you feel so your doctor can help you out. You may need some blood work done to see if you are getting all your nutrients. Maybe you need to smile a little more. LOL Reeizbooje Big HUGGGSSSS to you for sticking with your work out and see pass the scale. Keep it going and that scale will move down and your so will your clothes sizes. LOL
