Thanks

It has been a very trying week, but I stuck to plan! I have been eating right, but kind of lost my excercise motivation! I think I got it back! Hope you all had a great week and you have an awesome weekend!
Big HUGS!

Bette Jo, Yes, do hang in with us and don't give up! I love having you in the forums to talk to and your weightloss has been so inspiring! I do understand how stress tries to undo all the good you've done, but don't let it get to you!

I lost a pound this week! I wasn't expecting anything at all but that was great. I am in the 220's now, down to 229! Maybe I can lose more before Tuesdays weigh in.

Wohoo Stacey, congrats

hey everyone! I just found out my gym is having a biggest loser challenge! I think I am going to do it! why not? Maybe that will help me focus???

I am also changing my time for my work out to the morning...i think that will help me too...we will see.
How's everyone doing with the halloween candy?

That sounds like an awesome idea, Chrisie!

Not tempted by the candy here - just don't keep it around. We'll be taking the kids out trick-or-treating early and putting up a NO CANDY sign on the door when we get home. Yes...I am one of those people who doesn't get into Halloween. I think it's my least favorite holiday. lol

Hi everyone! We need 1 more player for Fitness Survivor month to complete a team! Is anyone interested? Joy and Stacey are already part of my team If you'd like to join....please click the link below. It just started yesterday

Fitness Survivor Mont - Join In! :)

Hello. I haven't been tempted to buy halloween candy, but I did buy some pumpkin cookie things. Luckily I got 2 out of 20, but still, that set me up for the cravings again, and then I was eating everything and snacking last week. This week, I am doing ok.

I think your gym thing sounds awesome and I would join it too if I were a member! Let us know how it goes ok? Sounds really neat!

I am doing great with the walking but still have this horrid cough and I am not sleeping so well now, and I am wheezing. It could be bronchitis or something worse. I may end up going to the urgent care today just to make sure I am ok.

I am down 2 lbs. this week. It was 1 lb. on Saturday my official weigh in day. I am now at 207, but I will not be changing my ticker until Saturday!
I meaured myself before starting this challenge and I have also lost inches. I wish I had the courage when I began my weight loss journey to measure myself, but I didn't want to know the awful truth!
My measurements were
9/16
bust-44
arms-15 1/2
waist-47
hips-46 1/2
thighs-27 1/2
calves-17
ankles-9 1/4
wrists-7

10/12
bust-44
arms-14 1/2= -1
waist-46 1/2= -1/2
hips-45= -1 1/2
thighs-26= -1 1/2
calves-16 1/2= 1/2
ankles-8 3/4=1/2
wrists-6 3/4= 1/4
My inches lost are 5 3/4"

I hope you all are having a great week!
Big HUGS!

Bette Jo...that is awesome!
