Sounds like a great goal! Good luck and I look forward to seeing you here more often! =0)

I wish I only had 10 pounds to 120!! I have 21 pounds to get there but I look sick when I am that thin so I will stick to 130 at the lowest.

I can't wait until we both make it! YAHOO!!

Keep up the good work!

How old is your son?

Hi Julie!

How are things going?

April

Looks like you are doing great! Only 8 pounds away! YAY!!!

I've been out of town again. Unfortunately, this time I ended up gaining. We were at my folks and my mom hates leftovers in the fridge. I ate things to "use them up" when I should have snuck them into the trash!

Hey girl! How is it going?

Hi Sonja!!

Hmm, not as close as I'd like to be! I'm more using Traineo to keep track of my waistline and stay motivated. Even with the weight loss, I've only lost 1/2" around where it counts. :(

I was on vacation last week and lost a bunch more. I know a lot of ppl gain whilst on vacation but I tend to be more active. We also rent kitchenette suites and eat in. So, my diet doesn't change that much and my walking skyrockets. :up:

Now that we're home, I've been sitting on my butt for the past two days. :smirk: I need to get up and MOVE!

Perhaps tomorrow we'll take a hike, assuming that the wind calms down a bit.

Hi Julie!!

Yep, I'm still here. I just can't weigh myself anymore. My trainer has taken my scale from me LOL.

Oh boy, can I relate to your comment. I had to gain weight before I became pregnant and thought I'd lose everything after my son was born...um NOT.

I don't know if If I've lost any weight, but I'm finally starting to look a little better and most importantly, I'm feeling better.

Thank you so much for the encouragement. You are inspiring. You are so close to your goal.

Cool...those sound good. Ever since my divorce I haven't liked pop...apparently I was drinking it just because it was always around but I quit buying it after he moved out and I haven't missed it! lol Every now and then I will indulge in a diet AW or diet Dr. Pepper but I can't stand full strength pop at all! lol Luckily I am a water-aholic! lol I have a 64 oz cup at work that I fill up every morning and usually finish it by 2 in the afternoon.

You shouldnt' be depressed, that sounds like fun! Vacations are a time for no dieting otherwise you don't have any fun. You can get back on track when you get home!

We don't get to go on vacation until December! ugh! We always go to Alabama because that is where my husband's family all is. I have a great time but I am looking forward to going to Disney World or something for a vacation!! That would be fun! Hopefully we can convince everyone to go to an all inclusive resort and get to visit with them and relax!

I am in the basement and thinking about working out...I just hope that my DVD player is working...the kids did something to the TV and now it only works occassionally and if I go upstairs then I will wake up my husband from bouncing around! lol

Hi April! A tad depressing. We're on vacation for the week to Cali. We went to Great America today and when it got really hot I changed into my swimsuit top. Yuck! Where did that come from!?!

Well, at least I'm on the right track to change things back.

I've been doing my crunches every day plan to hit the workout room here tomorrow. Today's exercise was hours of walking through an amusement park.

In other news, I've discovered the SoBe Lean drinks. I'm a Coke-aholic and cutting those out would be a boon to my caloric intake. :)

Thanks for checking up on me!

Hi Julie,

How are things going?

When I first met my husband I was 135 pounds and cute as can be!! lol I am 5'5" and now I am 177 pounds, 184 last week so I am losing, just slowly! My poor husband never complains and from most of the clothes that I wear you can't tell that bad but I can tell and I hate it. I miss wearing all the little cute clothes!

What types of exercise are you doing? I have to get up at 5 in the morning to be able to exercise because otherwise I lose the time! I am going to start my turbo jam tomorrow. Should be fun! There is a website called www.beachbody.com and it is great! They have lots of fun workouts. I see what they have and then buy the programs on ebay for less. =0)

Yes I agree! But I let mine get bigger than his now I have to fix it. He is about 4 inches taller than me and can eat WHATEVER he wants without gaining weight! I hate it! I wish that I could do that. But just have to get with the exercise. It was easier when my kids were little. THey wanted to ride their bikes with me and roller blade, now it is like pulling teeth to get them to hang out with me! lol

Hi April! Just watching the intake (I'm a sugar-aholic) and upping the exercise. I've got the two kiddos - and making time for exercise often takes a backseat. My husband is an exercise person - he's amazingly fit and I'll be darned if I'm going to allow my waistline to get larger than his!

Hi Julie!

What type of program are you using? Anything in particular or just watching calories and exercising?
