The 25lb Challenge January thread

If I could just get back to 160 I know the motivation to keep running and doing bootcamp would be firmly there. Bootcamp weigh is on Tuesday or Thursday. I will see what it reveals.

Must have been the taco shells.

Alex woke up hourly last night. Idk what it is. I think he's getting molars and i actually gave him motrin. Nope. I gave him gas drops too because he geta gassy and cries. Nope . Idk what it is and im about to frickin loose it.

On a fun note, i went to BRU yest and got a jogging stroller. I got the BRU brand one cause it was the only one they had with an adjustable handle and I'm short. Geez, joggers are tall!! I'm excited to try it, hopefully i get a chance to run today.

I think i suck at this weight loss thing. I've been eating clean and working out, averaging about 1200 cals a day. I stay at 143-144 lbs. I can't seem to break it. Idk why

One more thing. Dh went to play paintball yesterday. He came home for a few minutes and had to go to work to finish paperwork. He got home about 6 with dinner, ate with us, then proceeded to talk to his friend (who he saw all day) on the phone. After that he watched paintball vids on YouTube. Wft? Pay attention to your kids!i had to ask him to help me get them ready for bed. Needless to say, i was a little pissed at him last night

Sorry about your son and that your husband was being dumb. But congrats on your jogging stroller! I really want one. I hope I can get one from the BRU trade-in.

I went grocery shopping and bought both the walden farms zero cal ceasar and maple grove 10 cal ceasar. I really like the maple grove for salads! The walden farms would make a good marinade for chicken, imo.

What do you all do to get more veggies into your kids? My kuds will eat quite a bit of veggies, but really onlu a handful of types...broccolli, green beans, carrots and celery, parsnips. They eat spinach and kale if its raw.

Any suggestions in getting them to expand their veg horizons?

Thanks. Not giving up yet, but it really sucks. I do manage to lose when I eat absolutely no carbs but it's just not sustainable for me. I can manage to eat clean but the weight isn't budging.
Maybe I need to eat more? I'm netting about 1200 lately. All the "eat more to lose" threads on MFP says I should be. Maybe I should try it.
