I know a bunch of us are trying to eat better and exercise more - how is it going for you?

I have been ok, trying to up my running. Last night I did a gravity class then pilates. Tonight I just need to watch out for the mindless snacking.

I've reached my first goal of 145..10 more to go!

I'm doing just ok. I'm up a bit this week, so I need to figure out why. I need to get a new exercise goal because that is definitely slipping some. And my carb cravings are back some, too -- I need to start focusing on the good foods again.

Well I was full of pi$$ and vinegar 2 weeks ago... that resolve has slipped since then! It seems to be the same old, same old with me: there is NO TIME FOR ME To have good and points friendly meals and snacks available, I need time to plan them, get them, make them, etc... when it really boils down to it, I just don't have that time right now. It sucks. I *want* to have teh time, I *want* to break the insane cycle, but I just can't seem to manage it.

My current resolve is to maintain. Cut out the potato chips and general junk. And try to get some time back for myself.

I am doing great! I got my gym membership on Thurs., and I've been everyday since!! I started my group cardio training on Monday (will be doing that MWF), and I had my first personal training session last night. (Will be doing PT on TTH.) My body hurts, but it's a good hurt. This is my first full week of training. If I can make it through this week, I'm good. I was really happy after my training yesterday. My trainer said she was very impressed with my flexibility and form. I also held a plank for 45 seconds! I haven't done planks in over a year!

The diet is going ok. I need to drink more water and do better about eating during the day.

I'm having a hard time getting up in the morning to run. This late night class thing and busy kid schedule is killing me. I can't exercise when I'm exhausted. Other than that, down 1 pound this week. Weigh in day is usually Wed for me.

Weigh in tonight. Ugh. Not expecting anything good. I've been sick, so not running. And, when I am sick like this, all I want to do is eat. It's not horrible food, but the quantity is not conducive to good habits. Bleh.

So far so good today (Except for the cookie I just ate, but it was just one).

I need to get better so I can exercise. Grrrrr.

Well my eatting habits are not the greatest. I still like to hit the candy jar for candy corn and what not. I also need to step up my trips to the gym. I have a trainer once a week and 'try to go two other times but rarely do. On a good note - I am 10 pounds lighter than when I got pregnant with Blake and my jean fit me this morning right out of the dryer!!!
Kim - seriously a plank for 45 seconds after not doing them???? You freaking rock!

I'm not doing well. Not exersise except my daily walking to and from work. My eating is a mess. . Not real food I'm snacking the days away.
Doesn't help that my mom brought all kind of yummy stuff. I just hope not gaining to much . So when thing calm down a little (I'm a emotional eater) and my stress goes down I can focus in better habits.

It took everything I had, too. And I had to do TWO of them. I was ok until about 25 seconds. The last 20 seconds I had my trainer in my ear. The last 8 seconds were the longest 8 seconds of my life. But, I did it. And THAT is why I got a trainer. On my own, I would've gone down at 25 seconds.

c/s incision was burnin' a little last night though.
