M2M, Congrats on the pants. I'm glad you enjoy walking in the morning. I heard taking a walk in the morning, helps you feel better all day long. It's so great that you feel confident about losing weight. I can't wait to hear what your scale says!

I second the please, please, please for the challenge.

Also, I'm sending your scale lots of good vibes for tomorrow.

Also, I'm sending you a pm.

and this one time.....at band camp.....

OMG! That is so funny! Have y'all seen that last one that is at band camp? It is hilarious! We had seen it right before my son comes in and says he wants to play the TUBA in the school band next year! ROFL! He finally decided he wanted to play the sax instead. Phew!

Hey Everyone
HH, I haven't even checked out the clubs yet, I'll go look now...

As for today, I haven't eaten enough calories yet, it's 8:33 pm and I've had 673 calories - I really don't want to eat this late, but I also don't want to leave it at half my calories for the day either...

I had
7:30 (after my walk)
nutrition shake - 180 calories
10:30
Large Tomato - 38
2:30
Apple - 75
4:30
Large Pria Bar 170
6:30
3oz Jerky -210

(spread out throughout the day, even the apple was took over an hour to finish, snacking on it while on the phone)

With my 437.7 calories burned during my 4km walk this morning, I'm entirely too low for the day. Funny, I don't think I've ever had this problem in my LIFE!

So, I'll probably find something lite and have it then stay up longer

Did you go get your shoes?

I'll check on you tomorrow afternoon! Good luck on that weigh-in!!!!!

OH yes! I picked up some tennis shoes today and the timing couldn't be better, my shins hurt from this morning's walk, and I have not blisters, but kind of holes in my feet where the seams rubbed my feet. I really couldn't keep doing that!

Don't do what I did and walk 2 1/2 miles the first time out in your new sneakers. I'm not used to having to break in walking shoes, because I never did this much walking before! Go about a mile and quit the first couple of nights so you don't get more blisters!

Ack - I don't have time to break them in - I meet a friend of mine a little over a mile from my home at 6:45 AM every morning now.

She'll be waiting for me

So, I'll take some band aids just in case!

OK, my daily intake for today is 895 (up from 673 1.5 hours ago)

I'm stopping for the day, I really don't want to eat anything else this close to going to sleep - and I'm [...this close...] to falling asleep

No worries, I don't typically eat like this, and have no intention of eating like this again tomorrow!


See you guys in the morning!

Good Morning

I get to move my ticker!! I did actually see 226.8, however, this morning after my walk, it was 227.0 so I'm moving it down 3 pounds.

I put in 2.5 miles for 539 calories burned by 7:00 am - it feels SO good to start out the day like this!!

Hope you all have a good weekend

Way hey 3lbs in a week is excellent, I wish I had the motivation to get out early and do stuff like walking. This morning I woke up and it was lovely outside and I did think I could go for an early morning bike ride. I wound up doing the house work instead, I had a few goldfish looking at me mournfully to get me to clean their tank.

Have a good weekend!

Yeah! 3 pounds!!! Welcome to the other side of 230!

HEY M2M

Keep up the good work. Congrats on losing those 3 pounds! We're all supporting you here.

Great job on the loss!! Thats excellent!

I, too, like walking in the mornings I like to hear the birds singing on the way UP the hill and see the awesome view of our island on the way down - and no cars to interrupt the quiet Its kind of..... well, Cinderella like when I go in the mornings I go in the evening during the week b/c I can't go until I get out of work, but I much preferr the mornings

Keep up the great work! Hope you've had a good day
