I'm down a total of 11 pounds since the begging of the month. I'm on day 27 of no Diet Coke...so hard!<br />Alison<br /><a href="http://www.rockinandlovinlearnin.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Rockin' and Lovin' Learnin'</a>Alison Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18353164628345963175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706866616154600985.post-14216579148742499352014-01-25T15:40:41.053-05:002014-01-25T15:40:41.053-05:00I am right there with you on the plateau -- nothin...I am right there with you on the plateau -- nothing last week and 0.4 this week. The measurements are what are helping me continue to be positive though because I am getting more fit with exercise and my wraps. I totally agree with the word, "truth". I am taking big steps of confidence to share this each week, but I am doing it, and I am being honest. It is helping me stay focused throughout the week because I know I have to be honest either way! Good luck this week!Heather S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03169542411151013820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706866616154600985.post-69756521364229367112014-01-25T15:39:42.195-05:002014-01-25T15:39:42.195-05:00You're doing great Gina!

It sounds like you're really getting a handle on your eating and avoiding triggers. Remember even 10 minutes of being active...even just dancing with your little girl...is better than nothing. Good luck this week!<br />LaurenThe Traveling Teacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00371594375370451841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706866616154600985.post-77835572279271605522014-01-25T11:23:30.802-05:002014-01-25T11:23:30.802-05:00Hey, you've got more to brag about than me!

Maybe I'll give your method a try- it seems easy enough! You'll get the workout thing figured out soon enough. I only go because my husband makes me (I'm secretly grateful for it, but I don't show it when he turns the TV and says, "Let's go.") Keep on, keeping on! :)<br /><br />Kelli<br /><a href="firstyearteachingtales.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Tales of a Teacher</a>Kellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13438678516310285662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706866616154600985.post-34969674251139376992014-01-25T11:09:12.915-05:002014-01-25T11:09:12.915-05:00I would suggest checking out Sparkpeople.com I hav...I would suggest checking out Sparkpeople.com I have been a member for years! It is a free site to help you with community, support, videos, tracking and more! Since I have been a member- I have had ups and downs. But I have lost almost 23 lbs since last January- between school, stress, trying to balance sleep, workouts, and food- it has been hard! But the community support is great. Even if you get in 10 minutes of exercise a day you are on the right track!!!! Good luck with your goals!!!! :) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17186812431271833446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706866616154600985.post-80027361876513017602014-01-25T11:00:32.568-05:002014-01-25T11:00:32.568-05:00I am so sick of salads.

I have found I enjoy those Luna bars for quick lunches, or picking up a special deli salad (Raley's Mandarin Chicken Salad is good), or even having a Healthy Choice frozen meal once in a while makes it different. I am also loving Greek Yogurt for breakfast and lunch. Thanks for hosting this linky!

I have to make smarter food/snack choices too and these snow days aren't helping cause all I want to do is lounge around and snack. I like that your word for this week was truth. Being honest is definitely a part of the process. Good luck next week!!<br /><br />KellyKelly Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00275727680064505424noreply@blogger.com
