What Is Your Primary Reason For Entering The Challenge?: I need some structure to get back on track. This plan seems to have lots of structure and guidance combined with a solid health plan.

I would like to lose about 46 lbs, I think, guess I won't really know till I get there. But more importantly I want to be healthy, slimish and toned! Lol!! I say "slimish" because I have never been and not sure if the word slim appeals to me. I like the idea of tight and toned and maybe a size 8? I still want to be curvy but would be ecstatic to be smooth instead of lumpy!

About Me:: I live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Anyone else from here?

I am a single mom of a 15yr old son and 12yr old daughter. I am an NICU nurse and work shiftwork which further complicates my life. Time is a fairly precious comodity so the idea of 2 - 15 min exercise periods in the day is very appealing.

I have been big all my life but am not willing to accept it as my fate!!

Good morning everyone!!

Thanks for helping me through yesterday,, don't know what brought all that on,, sorry!! Tired and stressed I guess and wanting bigger results. I have the cold sore to validate the stress as that's the usual indicator when I have too much stress. Though I didn't feel it any more than any other time. But I have been looking after everything for so many years it's just normal for me I guess. I am not sure if I would be able to accept someone helping me to look after things… Continue

Oh my... I forgot to set my alarm last night so woke up to my daughter at 6am saying ...don't you think you should get up for work mom? Lol... it's been a long time since I did that!! Consequently no workout this morning!

And..... I gained 2 1/2 lbs yesterday so there really wasn't much incentive to workout!! In theory this should work and it seems to for other people but doesn't appear to be very effective for me!! Don't understand why.

I did make an ED friendly Apple Crumble last night with… Continue

June 16 - Catch up!!

Hi everyone,

I am still here, still plugging away! Haven't had any time for blogging or reporting in but I am still on track. Have been able to do almost all of the exercises and have been very faithful to the ED diet though not able to manage the wave, but have reduced the carbs alot. I have had the occasional latte but always decaf with nonfat milk. I always feel good afterwards so I don't think milk is an issue for me. And... I find it very comforting... there are lots worse things I could b… Continue

My weight is not moving downward as quickly as I'd like but it is going down. I have a hard time eating just protein and veggies. It really effects my mood (grumpy and sad). I need the carbs to keep my moods level.

I work in an office for a business that supplies ethnic restaurants. I am the jack of all trades that does all the office admin. Its very stressful but not as much as yours I imagine. Got to go now, talk soon.

Thanks for your comment on my blog, I love your photos you look like a really fun lively person. I work in Edmonton, London but I suppose that doesnt make us neighbours!

Then it will take you to your profile page where you can change passwords and such you can also upload a picture from your computer there. I'm not a big computer/electronics person so I hope I explained that ok. Anyhow, I started a recipe discussion in the Forum (4th tab from your left on top of the page) called ED friendly recipes. If you have any recipes that will work with this diet please add them there =0) I love the picture of you and that adorable little baby!
