I am all about cheering one another on. But honestly, I can't post my weight. Those numbers literally scare me. I am scared to even go buy a scale. I am such a wimp.
So today is our start date??? Ok, gotta go to Target I guess and buy a scale.
What are you guys doing? Eating less and exercising more is good.
My big thing is eating breakfast in the morning. I have a protein shake (usually made with water). I try to eat lunch and always dinner. I sometimes will have an organic fruit strip (100% fruit) for a snack. I am lowering my bad carb intake but not cutting it out completely. I do pilates for an hour 3 - 5 times a week. And I am thinking on Monday I will start this walking/jogging program my friend Lori told me about. Probably in the evenings 2 - 3 times a week.
This is going to be hard but sooooo worth it! Good luck everyone!![]()

My weight #'s scare me too!
I guess my plan is to exercise daily and control my portions & not snack at night when I'm sitting around the house. That is a bad time of day for me! I'm just a bit frustrated right now because nothing fits anymore. I went shopping at Old Navy last night to get a pair of capris and a couple short sleeve shirts since the weather is finally getting nicer....let's just say that was a depressing experience! Before I got pregnant with my son last year, I wore a size 8/9. I'm 5'9" so that was really skinny for me. Well, last night I had to buy a pair of size 16 pants!!!
The problem is, they are baggy in the butt & thighs (I have no butt haha) but after having my son a few months ago I have this horrible stomach that looks like I am still 5 months pregnant. I didn't want to get size 14 because I didn't want them to be too tight & scrunch up my belly so I went with the bigger size. But having to buy that size pants was really really difficult for me & I almost broke down crying in the store. I really want to lose the weight but I just feel so confused about how to go about doing it.Sorry for venting...that was my whiney post for the day


I'll definately keep an eye out for you! I was only able to get a standard room at this time though, I'm praying I'm not way over in the 90's building!!
You can do this girlie! We all can! We just have to get our heads right about it ya know?
Do you have your ADRs yet?
But I am in on the pool. $5 is a small price to pay to lose weight! Thanks for organizing this!
