JCWANNABE · 07-22-2012, 11:59 AM

Hey there sweetie, where are you? Kicking some low carb butt probably!

Maximoon · 07-22-2012, 03:51 PM

Hi Melanie,

Hope you had a great time at the amusement park with the fam! I haven't been to one of those for years, sounds fun.

Wishing you the best with family and business and everything in between...take care!

Hugs, Jenna

Happy2be · 07-22-2012, 11:45 PM

Hello friends. Thanks for keeping my journal warm. Back from our vacation. We had a ton of fun!!!! Back on the low carb train tomorrow!!!! The house is stocked with all of our favorite low carb foods. I'm super stoked that we found a low carb bbq sauce. Now we can have bbq pork chops this week. WOO HOO!!!

Happy2be · 07-23-2012, 12:26 AM

Ok, so one more thought before heading to bed. I need goals!!! Tomorrow I am going to set some good goals and start working towards them. I've been status quo since I made it into the 100's and I need to kick my butt again.

nikkiluvslowcarb · 07-23-2012, 03:36 AM

Hey girl, glad y'all had a good time. Yay for setting new goals. I need to do the same.

Paranoidsoutherner · 07-23-2012, 05:15 AM

I think I'll see y'alls goals and then decided if I want to set some

HAHA

I actually have one goal to do the 30 day shred videos and get out of level one. That hasn't happened yet but with a hit and miss at doing them it's not going to so at 4:30am this morning I did level one and plan to do it each more this week and HOPEFULLY move to level two middle of next week.

Bejewelme · 07-23-2012, 06:12 AM

Joining the club for goals, good grief!!! Glad you had a fun vacation!

DesertGurl · 07-23-2012, 09:59 AM

Glad you're back. Missed you!

Happy2be · 07-23-2012, 10:27 AM

Ok so we all need some new goals I guess.

working on them today. I will get back to you guys. I'm up 5 lbs from my lowest. UGH!!! Back to chuggin the water and getting the scale to move lower. I still went to ZUMBA during this time, but I'm getting a little bored with that. I need to find something to add in I think. So this morning I weighed in at 201 *Insert smiley smacking my butt* here. LOL This bad girl needs kicked in the butt.

So back at it full force and ready to see the scale moving!!!

I will be back when I get a chance to figure out my new weight goals!!!!

DesertGurl · 07-23-2012, 11:11 AM

I need some goals too! I've got 5 months to see how much I can lose for a trip to Vegas!

Jayce · 07-23-2012, 05:14 PM

I'm super bloated over here...lol. Been a "blow-out" lately from celebrating my birthday.

I'm sure whatever goals you set, you will accomplish. You're a fighter.

JCWANNABE · 07-23-2012, 06:23 PM

Glad your back!

I've been thinking about setting some goals as well. Today I realized my b day is in exactly 6 months! So I'm trying to figure out what goal to have by Jan 23.

Bejewelme · 07-24-2012, 04:58 AM

Hey Mel- let me know, I know mine are going to wait til after these 2 vacations, LOL cause I fully intend to drink heavily, LOL

Happy2be · 07-24-2012, 07:21 AM

Hello girlies!!!

So already the scale is moving. I chugged the water (my new best friend) and this morning I was 198.6!!!! -2.4 WOO HOO!!!

Drinking my shake today. And tonight we are having bbq porkchops and salad. Going to try the sugar free bbq sauce I found at the store.

Danielle~ 5 months is alot of time. You can do whatever you put your mind too.

Jayce~ Thanks. I am not sure I have always been a fighter, but I sure am now. I fight for what I want!!! Drink the water and the bloat will go away!!!

Melissa~ WOO HOO!!!! Goals are great to have!!! Can't wait to see what you come up with.

Amber~ Oh yes, enjoy your vacations and get serious after that!!!! Have fun drinking and relaxing!!!!

mama_2_3 · 07-24-2012, 07:23 AM

Yay for moving down!

Happy2be · 07-24-2012, 07:38 AM

8 week challenge......... 7-23 - 9-16 Lose 16 lbs and be at 182.6!!!
july 23 - july 30........196.6
july 31 - aug 6.........194.6
Aug 7 - aug 13........192.6
aug 14 - aug 20.......190.6
aug21 - aug 27........188.6
aug 28 - 9 - 3........186.6
9-4 - 9-10..............184.6
9-10 - 9-16............182.6

Just in time for our 7 year wedding anniversary on September 17!!!!

Happy2be · 07-24-2012, 08:02 AM

So here are my goals and rewards......
10 lbs and new decade by August 27= new piece of furniture for office!!
182.6 by Anniversary on 9-17 = one night getaway with hubby!!!
10 lbs and new decade by 10-1 = new shirt for fall

I also looked at it further and if I lose 2 lbs a week I will be at the following:
170 by Halloween. I think I will get a sexy halloween costume, that I always look at, but never get because I was always too heavy!!!!
160 by Thanksgiving!!!! WOO HOO!!!!
152 by Christmas..... Unless I really push it and make it to 150!!! WOO HOO!!!
Wouldn't that be a wonderful Christmas present!!!!
148 by my 1 year of low carb.

This of course depends on how my body reacts and if I can even get that low. All of these numbers are virgin numbers and numbers I haven't seen in 10 + years!!!!! Either way I will be getting healthy and shrinking!!!!

ceecee08 · 07-24-2012, 09:54 AM

I LOVE YOUR GOALS!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are inspiring me MEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

zipp2play · 07-24-2012, 11:12 AM

Did you enjoy your trip?? Where did you go???

MagieDen · 07-24-2012, 02:59 PM

Melanie your goals sound solid!

you rewards for reaching them as well. YOU CAN DO IT!!!!

Maximoon · 07-24-2012, 03:34 PM

Hi Melanie,

Your goals sound great! You have inspired me---I've been in a stall for some time, but I need to keep my long term goals in mind even though the scale is not moving for the moment.

Have a great day!

Hugs, Jenna

JCWANNABE · 07-24-2012, 08:38 PM

Love the goals!

Happy2be · 07-25-2012, 08:08 AM

Thanks girlies!!!!! I'm excited to see new numbers!!!! And get the rewards!!!

Went to a different ZUMBA class at a different place than my normal place and it was ok. I definitely sweated, but I am still missing that latin feel. I will always go to my place on Thursday, but since I had missed Sunday I was looking for something to fill that void. This class will do in a pinch, but I am going to keep searching.

Scale rewarded me this morning!!! 196!!!! WOO HOO!!!! I know most of its water weight, but I will take it!!!!

Cassidy~ Great!!! Glad I can help!!!

Zipp~ We went to Idlewild in PA for 2 days, and then just did stuff around the house the other days.

Maggie~ Thanks!!! I feel pretty good about them!!!

Jenna~ Glad I could help. It always helps to keep an eye on the long term stuff especially when you need a kick in the butt!!!

Melissa~ Thanks!!!

MagieDen · 07-25-2012, 02:03 PM

on the drop on the scale. Oh Melanie I don't know what I would do if my Zumba Class didn't have that Latin beat, I think that is part of the fun. It is hard to get into the Rumba and Salsa without it. Hope you can find a fit for you. KUTGW lady, so proud of you.

JCWANNABE · 07-25-2012, 02:38 PM

GREAT JOB GETTING TO 196!

mama_2_3 · 07-25-2012, 06:55 PM

Congrats on 196!

You're well on your way to achieving those goals, keep it up! Hope you can find another class you enjoy.

Happy2be · 07-25-2012, 10:53 PM

Thanks girlies!!! My rings are spinning on me tonight. Probably because I have no water weight currently left. I've been peeing like crazy.

Had a good night with my girls at training tonight and then had dinner after, A yummy steak salad with bacon and cheese!!! We had so much fun talking and getting to know each other better. What a great night!!!
