Okay.. So, I was completely awful all week long.. Did not count points, did not eat healthily, and went on a mini vacation that consisted of 2 full days of eating out.. And, guess what?? I lost .4 pounds.. I was 167.4 when I got on the scale at mom'…
YAY congrats on the loss!

Thank you for posting your story. Everyone here is going through some kind of struggle, whether similar to your story or not, and the folks here are amazing supporters and friends to anyone who joins. Welcome and good luck!!
Hope your family cookout went well! I'm a beginning runner too (2 weeks in)--the trick for me is to not try and do too much too soon. When I do I end up really sore. I find that I enjoy running a lot by using the Nike+. That's what got me going in t…

I'm sorry hun, it sounds like you're going through hell right now. Sometimes, my fiance and I struggle with "personal" things, and we're not even married yet!! When I'm upset, I try to stretch and do some deep breathing exercises.. Or just spend a h…
Way to go bargain shopper!! I am soooo not good at that. Great job staying on track eating yesterday too...I am sure the buffett food was hard to pass up, but you did it and I bet you felt better afterwards. Isn't it crazy how kids just don't really…
I agree with Tawnya... You were proactive enough to get on the scale and realize what you had (or hadn't) been doing for your body, so that's an awesome step back in the right direction. It's easy to let it slip for a day, or a week, or even a month…
Keeping all the food and drinks in the car definitely helped keep us moving all day---the best roller coasters + the free concert were both in the very BACK side of the park.. Plus, I panicked and thought that I had failed to properly submit a large…
Congrats on planning ahead. It is so easy just to give it up for the day and call it a bust. But, you accounted for everything and was honest with yourself. I am real bad about just throwing it in and starting program again the next day, BUT I am wo…

A Great (and Funny) Day!!
Yesterday was pretty fun, if I do say so myself. I went to my fiance's mom's to interview my soon-to-be SIL for a graduate paper, and she made me giggle like crazy. First, I should mention that she's 12 years old and about as well-adapted as any kid I've ever seen.. I asked her three words to describe herself, and she only sees herself as "athletic, cuz I play softball." Okay, that makes sense; young people define themselves very simplistically... But, here's the funny part.. When I asked how he… Continue

- Yay another Hoosier!!! I don't attend actual meetings. I live on the NE side and a group of girls in my neighborhood and I do our own mock meetings with a boot camp and dinner afterwards. We take turns who does the boot camp and cooking (WW Friendly of course). I hope you find a place that you like for your meetings if you decide to attend them.

- Hey, thanks for your nice comment on my before & after pic! :) I just read your food journal post and you know what? Don't stress about going over your points. You got a salad so at least a lot of those points were healthier than something like a burger. It's all about the little choices like that sometimes. You probably saved yourself some points in the end, even if you did go over, so good work!

I see you are a fellow hoosier too! I can so relate to your situation. I just got married in June, and am a graduate student as well and it was crazy but so fun! This forum has been such a support and I just started a month ago!:)
