Rep Power: 7 | | Yay! People joined. So today's the day to start or whatever, even though my classes haven't started yet.
Unfortunatly, this morning I found out that I am up 2 pounds! I am not thrilled with this at all and am hoping it's water weight, but regardless, my official starting weight is 215. ugh.
also, i fell down the stairs this morning, due to my astounding gracefulness and now my butt muscle is so tight that I can barely walk. i guess that means exercise is for the most part out today. *sigh* |

Rep Power: 7 | | More new people! Yay! Welcome everyone.
How did your first day go?
I did ok on food. I could have made some better choices (salad instead of fries) but I'm pretty sure I did ok on calories. I need to drink some more water though! It was hot here today. Exercise didn't happen today due to my stupid fall down the stairs, but I plan on attempting a pilates video here in a little bit to see if I can possibly stretch the muscle back out and get a little bit of movement in.
I hope everyone had a good day! |

Rep Power: 7 | | | What's wrong with a long thread? And won't that get confusing?
I'm pretty new to this forum, but I would imagine we can make a new thread every month for this and have the old one locked...that way it's still manageable. That's how it works on most of the forums I've been too.
Not to be offensive or anything...just curious about how things work around here! |
