    I met all the goals I set for this week! Believe me...I set easy ones I drank all my waters and did the exercises!! The exercise ones were the hardest to do cause I would rather be quilting. We got rid of the 'bad' food in the house and ate more 'color' food per Dr Oz. In the process I did lose 2 pounds! I did not even set a weight goal for the first week so that was cool. New goals for next week will be set today and will include more exercise! :roll:
    BTW my puter is in the shop and wont be home til middle of next week. Sorry I haven't been responding to blogs. I have been reading them and trying to keep up. My keyboard went a bit screwy...might of been that little dab of diet coke spilled on it???? duh Borrowing hubby's right now, but he plays puter games so I can't use it for long. While he is watching football tomorrow I hope to watch the new show with Jenny. Great first week and good luck to all next week. Sandi in FL

      Wow! Sounds like all of you are doing great! Congratulations!
      I didn't get a chance to post yesterday because I unexpectedly had to go into work and it threw off my groove. LOL.
      Anyway, I did lose 2 pounds this past week. This upcoming week my goal will simply be not to gain it back. The reason is twofold. One, I have to work and that always makes it very difficult to eat well and almost impossible to exercise. The second reason is because I have to go back to Durham later today and into the first part of next week due to my Uncle's death. I know we will be bombarded with comfort food.
      I have found it much more difficult than I expected but hey, no pain no gain.....wait... that's not right.....let's try this instead... avoid bad foods if you want to lose....that's a little better.

          Oh it sounds like we are all off to a great beginning..... I only lost a couple of lbs, but that was to be expected as I only walked twice this week.... had a grumpy week, so hopefully that week is behind me & I will do better this week....... Have a dinner to go to on Thursday night but the girls I am going with are also changing their livestyles so between the three of us we should keep each other in line :lol: more water this week, and more walking.....also have a new yoga tape I want to start as I enjoyed yoga when I did it before.......... this forum is a big help as it does make me know that I am not alone in this journey............. well gotta go do some dinner before it gets too late..... try to stop that late eating!!!....
          Healthy eating everyone................

            Hi all, Sounds like you are all being more successful than myself. I have stuck to my WW points all week but gained several pounds. It may just be water retention...sometimes when you lose you gain for a bit, if you know what I mean. If so, I hope the weight loss shows up before Wednesday morning when I have doctor's appointment. Ich! I will say it's been a kind of difficult few days. I lost some friends recently. But that's not the reason, I think, because I have stuck to my food plan...though I haven't gotten into the exercise routine very well. Anyway, a new try this week. I hope the doctor doesn't fuss too much. Cheers, BJ

              Hello everyone! I didn't loose any weight this week, but I did maintain. I did water classes on Mon and Wed. I also did one mile on the sitting eliptical on Fri. I hate not getting to do all the walking and exercising, but maybe when the new meds start working, I'll be able to do more. I did very well with my eating. Sat, DH and I went out to eat. I was craving protein. I ordered a steak and DH ate most of it!! I didn't do as well with getting all the water down, I drank about 40 oz a day. Everyone is doing so good!
              Happy Quilting,

                    I managed to lose 2 pounds over the holidays by watching my portions. Last week started treadmill and blood sugars are looking better! Doctor wants me to work up to 150 min per week of cardio and I am taking it slowly by starting at 90 minutes.....plus am keeping my 2 x week yoga classes.
                    cheers!!

                      Speaking of yoga......in keeping with opening up myself to new modes of movement, I decided to take a yoga class. I chose Bikram yoga because I read the article in the January issue of "O" magazine....what a shocker!!!! This is the class in a heated room. Everyone in there looked to be about 110lbs at the most!!!!! And the mirrors...don't even ask!!! I made it thru the class but not sure how I made it back to my car!!!!! Now my hands ache..hmmmm. I paid for one month so will go again, I hope.LOL

                          You twist them in so many different ways when holding the pose...and sit on them and lay on them....does this make sense???? Just suffice it to say, you feel like a pretzel!!! LOL

                            I wouldn't like that either...don't want to do anything that might make my hands un-movable.

                                True confessions: When I decided to quit smoking, I went into massive over-smoke. Guess what I'm doing now! I'm walking a mile-mile and a half daily and am watching what I eat but evenings if I'm not sewing are total disasters. Pure mindless stuffing the face. My head is saying stupid stupid while my hands are shoveling up crackers and cheese. I can't live in the dungeon unfortunately. I did quit smoking so all is not lost probably and I will conquer this compulsive thing I hope. Kudos to the rest of you. Keep at it. You can be my inspiration. Gloria
