Accountability Not Excuses - May 2008
Ok heres the deal:
This is a challenge for anyone who: 1. Is DEAD SERIOUS about getting the weight off for good 2. Understands that accountability daily is not an option, but a must 3. Recognizes that friendship and support is fundamental to their success here 4. Loves to share jokes, stories, ideas, recipes etc 5. Promises that if they mess up...they will get back on their plan by their next meal...not the next day, week, month etc 6. Will commit to some form of exercise daily 7. Can and will take constructive criticism and a good kick in the butt when needs be 8. Will find a plan and stick to it until they reach their goal 9. Will post menus daily 10. Will weigh and post weight (up or down) weekly 11. Will take and post measurements monthly 12. Will not make excuses or else #7 will be applied 13. Has a good sense of humor and can laugh at themselves So if ALL of the above applies to you ....welcome aboard  .....if not, you can always check out the "Cheat if you wanna" challenge"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Good morning me skinnies Well I am down a pound from yesterday so I guess that peanut butter from the last two weeks really did a number on my stats.....anyway as Lei keeps saying and I am trying to convince myself of," IT IS NOT A RACE"...but DANG MAN!!!....this sucks!!! weight - 276lbs Bust - 53" Waist - 43" Hips - 54" On the plus side I am also down a few inches.... ..as each of us post our stats I will add to my spread sheet and at the end of the day i will show you all the comparisions ok yesterday B - nuts L - protein shake D - cheese & crackers.....yea I know crackers are not on my plan...but I will be baking a batch or nut crackers today so i will have no more excuses Quote: Originally Posted by BufoDieter Oh for the love of...

I buy junk food for my staff all the time and never even think about it. Well, I don't know if it was the M&E thing from yesterday, or all my sugar cravings lately or what, but I saw one of my very favorite treats and it was calling my name. I picked it up, looked at the nutritional stuff and put it down. Then I wandered around the store looking at a variety of treats and KNEW that I was going to buy something to eat at lunch---and ended up buying a banana! That has never happened to me before--pretty much when I know I'm going to go off the deep end, I do! So, even though I didn't need the banana really--I'm pretty happy that I made a decent choice. Teresa...i am proud of you hun.....you made the best choice in your situation and these are the choices that we will all face at goal and you have shown us all how to deal with it......no i most probably would have bought a bag of chips,..... but that just goes to show how strong you are by the choice you made Quote: Originally Posted by cdn_gal Yup, 6 weeks, and like I said before, I will NEVER do it again... Well maybe if I take a face plant off the band wagon, (Lisa knows I can't stay away from cookies forever) but only for 3 days max! Good luck to ya Teresa! ................................Lisa~ Hair covering your face does NOT count!!! And yes of course I'd be the one to point that out... yes my cookie queen.....I will have to find (or invent) a LC cookie that tastes like the real deal for you...because looks like you will never give it up....like cream in ya coffee And yes...for the love of Lucy..(.i just love that..)..you had to be the one not to appreciate, my smooth , shiny , silky , hair.....OK I am off to find anouther one geesh Quote: Originally Posted by *KatNip* Well here is my face shot when I was in the 180's 4 years ago But just a sneak peek at what I'll be lookin like at then end of this year Sweaterjacket078.jpg - Image - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting Wowsa girlfriend!!! you could be a model.....maybe we really should post comparision pics at the beginning of each month too......what ya all thinki......it certainly gives me incentive Quote: Originally Posted by Coconutty What kind of rebounder do you use? I have an urban rebounder, but sadly its seen more time as a clothes hanger. HILARIOUS!!! This reminds me of a time last year, when I was haunting the bakery section of the supermarket, smelling and feeling the goods. People were looking at me as if I were a real FREAK! I think most exercise machines end up being used to hang or store clothes on..........as for you my bakery FREAK and for the rest of you all here.......you guys are hiliarous ....you remind me so much of me Quote: Originally Posted by Bramble Ok ok I do have tape measures really lol and I can't think of any more excuses lol erm... nope.. nothing lol I will do it later and post lol.. You forget this is the NO EXCUSES thread.......so me girls know WHERE THERE IS A WILL ,THERE IS ALWAYS A WAY __________________ Lisa Q Last edited by lcq : 05-01-2008 at 07:21 AM. |

Wow, May 1st already?! I just realized that I still have 19lbs to loose for my July1st goal...
 In January when I made the goal, it seemed so do-able, now I'm a little freaked out that it might not happen.. Looking on the brighter side of things though, come July 1st, I will be that much closer then I was 4 months ago... *trying to stay positive*I'm off to work, and no, I didn't forget about measuring day, I have my tape measure in my purse, and will post from work..  It's month's end today, and have inventory to do, and tons of bookwork just to catch me up..Oh yeah, and pic's...Who idea was this anyways?!   This was taken about 3 months ago...  ETA~ oh my gosh... That's huge!! Sorry bout that..

Missy you have to upload it to a photo/video sharing website. You can create an account at Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket (there are others, this is the most use friendly and popular one) and just upload whatever picture and the copy and paste the Img code or link here

Hello!
 Oh man, I've missed a lot since when I went to bed last night! ... so excuse the lost post that will ensue .... I slept 'till almost 2 pm today if you can believe that!Unfortunately, even though the pounds are lessening, the inches are increasing (what the heck?). These are me current measurements: Chest at fullest part - 36 Waist at smallest part - 31 (+1 from last month) Hips at fullest part - 37 (+1 from last month) Thighs at fullest part - 23 (+2 from last month) That is really discouraging, and I don't know what to do! I must admit that I feel like a puffy mess today just from the psychological part of knowing that I gained 1-2 inches EVERYWHERE........ except for the one place I might actually want to gain some: me chest! But oh well, we can't always have what we want now can we... What would you all do? Stick to it or try something different? Me calories are at about 1400, me carbs are always less than 20 grams TOTAL, and I exercise as much as I can.  Then again, I have lost POUNDS, so maybe something is working??? Oh jeeze, I'm so confused! lolQuote:
Quote:
Any change is great change, and especially where you lost! I'd love to lose in me waist and lower abs!! Keep up the good work.  Quote:

But really, CONGRATS on your measurements! That is an inch in the neck, 3 in the chest, SIX inches in your waist, and 4 in each your hips and thighs!  I think I need to start doing whatever you're doing! I have a little conspiracy theory too... As all of you lose inches, I'm pretty sure that they all accumulate on me. Quote:
************************************************** * And so far today I've eaten: 1 zucchini sauteed in olive oil, with 1 egg scrambled in; some butter on 2 carbs worth of low carb toast; and now I'm having a cup of coffee with cream and splenda. Not too bad considering.
