TELL THE WHOLE TRUTH AND BE ACCOUNTABLE:
WIN! You are a loser over the past week
LOOSE! You are a gainer over the past week
DRAW! No loss no gain over the past week. Is it a frustrating slow down in your wl? Or, perhaps its an infuriating stall? Or, is this mainting and holding steady, no problem?
Make this week a good one. Think about what went well and what was not so nice recently. Consider what works for you and what is counter productive. Make a plan. Work your program.
...All are welcome, jump in at anytime.

LV'N MY RNY. WORKING FOR ME BECAUSE I WORK FOR IT.
Calories are not a big issue for most newbies. It seems regardless of procedure wls folks can't hold enoug food to kill the calorie count. Keep working the protin and water and congrats on the workouts.
I say UPGRADE is in order!!!
my rings are already too big because we had them re-sized when I was pregnant... I never got them taken back down because I planned to get new ones....
I'm feeling stressed this week I have fraud on my bank account and a host of other b.s. to go along with it so I'm about to get my workout on!
2 1/2 mile walk/jog
100 squats challenge
100 sit ups challenge
Who's with me... Don't hold back!
I was washing my hands for the last couple of days and notice my rings wants to slip off. I thought it was the soap but come to find out my ring is getting to big for me. I can literally side it off with no problem. Its time for a re size or maybe even better a upgrade LOL
Its nothing like a good bra lol wow I do feel better and I purchased some new items from the clearnance rank where I work..I was able to afford it cause I cashed in on my winter faux fur coat at the cosignment shop down the street. Thanks for sharing your story!
