I am back in the game, headstrong and determined!!!

I've been doing these crazy ab workouts, guys. My abs hurt so freaking bad and I feel great--despite the soreness and the inability to sit up w/o extensive effort! Lol...

So I've been sticking to my calories, and the good-for-you snacks...and exercising like a normal person! Yay! And water, remember the water, and of course, the emotional stamina it takes to realize that this is indeed worth it and the creme filled cookies aren't. That's the hardest part!

Talk to you all soon. How are you guys doing? How close are we all to our goals? I'm still about 10 lbs away from my satisfaction goal. Let's discuss all our goals.

Everyone must be sleeping in this morning!!! Oh well, if you can---I say JUST DO IT!!! I am heading off to the grocery store; gotta get something to eat besides junk. I got my Keto shake powder in the mail yesterday---had one this morning (Orange creme) and its pretty good. YOu just mix it with water (I just used a spoon) and it doesn't even taste chalky. Best of all; it's only 2 carbs (actually, it says 1 effective gram)and 24 grams of protein! A great alternative to eggs, bacon, and sausage every morning if you're on Atkins. It would also make a perfect snack for a sugar craving since it tastes kind of sweet. I can't wait to try the banana creme pie flavor......they have several others too!

Well, since I'm running errands this morning; I guess I'll exercise this afternoon. It's kinda gloomy and overcast here; but I plan on taking a 2 mile walk outside (umbrella in tow) and then possibly a weight training tape! Anyone care to join me??????

Have a great day!!!

I'm going to the gym today, hopefully I'll get some weights in with the cardio. We'll see.

I've had such a stressful week, that I'm surprised I've lost any weight. I had gained back 2 lbs, but now I'm back down to 133. The funny thing is my scale is telling me my body fat percentage is rising...that's not cool. So what gives? I'm almost out of the healthy range!!! Gotta drink more water and eat less fat I guess.

Alright guys, keep up the GREAT work! We can do this. What are our short term goals again?

By May 15, I want to be down 7 lbs. I'll take 5, but I want 7, so that's my short term goal.
