136 - so the portion size is hopefully helping, now I just need to get my butt to the gym again. I did have 2ish glasses of wine last night, but it was Halloween. I'm definitely cutting back on my glass of wine at dinner though. Only for special nights.
So when I get everyone's weight for today, I will post the Week 1 results!

TL's 11/1 weigh in 178.5
Guess running on the treadmill for 55 minutes last night helped.
I stuck with my eating plan yesterday until the 4 pm snack attack. chocolate kisses and parmesan pita chips. ugh. Recovered at the gym and had a pear and cheese for an after work out snack instead of a full dinner.
I am prepared with my meal plan again today. I have a 4 pm meeting so hopefully will avoid the late afternoon train wreck!

New day
I'm all dressed up for Halloween today even though we got a foot of snow on Saturday! Luckily we still have power, but I did not go to the gym all weekend. I think once I take my test Saturday I will feel more energized to get up and work out. This studying saps all my energy. I am eating well, I've cut down on my portion size, there is no reason to be eating as much as Brian. Hopefully that helps some since I'm not working out.
I hope everyone's feeling good and up to Weigh-in number 2 tomorrow! I will post stats when I get everyone's info.
TL - are you planning on weighing in tomorrow even though initial weigh-in was saturday? just checking, if you wanted to start stats next tuesday, that's probably fine.
Have a great Halloween!

Monday
Hi all!
Weighed in early because I'm traveling this week - no change after being down 2 lbs all week and weekend. booooo!!
I haven't exercised since the 5k, which has been over a week ago :-O I am traveling by myself this week... and I find I do way better when I travel by myself. Sneakers and workout clothes are packed, and I'm planning on grabbing a bag of salad and rotisserie chicken to keep in the fridge at work for salads for lunch.
Hope everyone had a great weekend.
xoxoxo

I made a plan!
I'm trying something new. I weighed myself on Saturday - and I was right - I'm at 180. ugh. However, I do not despair. As a matter of fact that number disgusts me so much I have a new resolve. I WILL NOT BE THE FAT GIRL. As a result, I sat my fat ass down yesterday and made a eating plan for the week. Then I rolled my pudgy self to the grocery store and only bought what was on the list. I've never tried this. I am hoping that a well stocked and healthy pantry combined with no more guessing what's for dinner will result in the release from quick usually unhealthy meal decisions.
then I went to the gym.
have a great week everyone.

late but in
I will weigh in next week! but unofficially I know I'll be clocking in at a whopping 180. I haven't run on over a month and am afraid to try. I'm a long way from the marathon I ran this time last year.
Thanks everyone for beign a support system. looking forward to connecting over the next weeks!

Feeling better
I am feeling much better, I am definitely planning on going to the gym this weekend. I can finally walk again without wincing after the brutal P90X workout Tues morning.
I had an apple with peanut butter and a stonyfield yogurt smoothie drink for breakfast. I want to eat yogurt becuase I think it will help, so I bought these little smoothie drinks, but they definitely have too much sugar, I won't buy them again. I also bought a new kind of oatmeal, but it was disgusting. Kashi Go Lean very vanilla or something like that.
I am definitely doing better with snacking, but that's becuase Brian went grocery shopping and bought peppers, carrots and snap peas for me. I do want to start buying more frozen veggies, since the fresh ones are not really in season anymore.
Hope everyone's doing well! Ready for the storm this weekend? I know we're going to get some snow here, we had some last night. Crazy.

yay!
I can post!
I gave Sarah my starting weight. 174. *sigh* But I'm still only 5 months post partum. I'll cut myself a little slack. The problem with having a 5 month old and working full time is that YOU HAVE NO TIME. After our nighttime routine and Harper is in bed, the last thing I want to do at 8PM or 8:30PM is work out. And waking up earlier is a tough option when you have a baby that may or may not sleep through the night. I know, all excuses. And we all have a nasty case of the snotties in my house (thank you daycare). We have P90X or PX90 at home, even if I do it a few times a week and buckle down on the eating, I'll get there. I'd like to lose about 25 pounds. Not in 8 weeks, but that's my longer term goal. I think I'm going to use the LoseIt app to track my food, unless anybody has other suggestions that they have used and like.
I hope you feel better, Sarah. Thanks for organizing this.
