Hi Everyone!!! Welcome Tammi, I'm glad you joined us.

Today is day 16 for me. I cooked a bunch of odds and ends of meat in the crock pot yesterday so I am set for the next few days!

good morning everyone!

Today is day 10 dance2

I had a wonderful workout last night but I totally overdid it! I didn't eat enough calories during the day (750) and then worked out doing weights, elliptical, and Zumba class...I overheated, and my heart was racing for hours afterward! Yikes!

Next time I'll make sure I have more to eat! I couldn't believe i only had 750 calories. I'm going to have to watch my intake more closely. I have a very slow metabolism (I have hypothyroidism) and I know I will just shut down and go into starvation mode. Now I have to remember to Eat Eat Eat!! But of course the right foods!

Have a great day!!!

First of all, Welcome Tammi! It's nice to have more joining the challenge!

All of you are doing so well, sticking to your plans, improving your health.

I am starting day 13, sticking to plan, but seeing my scales bouncing up and down 1 lousy pound. Reminds me of the bouncing ball on the old Mitch Miller show. (Am I really old enough to remember that? Yes, but I was just a baby when it aired....) Up and down, up and down. I want my whoosh!

Anyway, I am sticking to plan. And I feel pretty good, generally.

Great going, all of you! dance2

Fresh Bagels and cream cheese - Home made rice krispie treats made with peanut butter and chocolate - AND Lou Malnati's Deep Dish Pizza! OMG!!!!! But I AM stronger then all these temptations!!! Let's make it a Great Low Carb - Low Sugar - Low Fat weekend girls!!!!

last time I looked, only about 1/2 box left, so I made it dance2
didn't eat a one, really wanted one or two or three ( I know I can put away a few donuts at a ttime) but I am working it.
JR, that was harder than the donuts...bagels are hard for me (harder than the donuts) I grew up in the nyc metro area and we had great bagels, I bet you have some good ones in chicago also.... rice krispie treats with peanut butter and chocholate... oh my god..... and pizza - I can usually pass on that
