G2009: Don't Gobble till you Wobble Thanksgiving Challenge!

sprklemajik · 11-13-2009, 08:56 AM

Hi ladies, just wanted to update, I promise I'll get you Indians and Pilgrims some new scores (It just might be tonight or tomorrow morning). I've been on plan food wise for the last couple days and H20. My weigh in was a no loss (I had a terrible off plan food day this week, and I contribute it to that). I've had 30 mins of exercise the past two days.

Thanks for the well wishes, work is still crazy for me, but my DH is finally starting to feel better so that makes my life much easier. Take Care

everyone. I weighed in this morning at 172.2. I am elated!

I will change my stats. I have been taking a yoga class at the Y with my daughter. It has really helped. I really enjoy the classes.The doctor put me on a diet. I have been following it pretty close. I go for lab work on 12/2 that will tell the story of what will happen in 2010. I have made some positive life style changes. I need to get back to drinking more water and less soda. For the rest of this challenge 64 oz of water a day will be my challenge. Losing 1.2 pounds by Thanksgiving will be my goal. Pat

I'm having such a problem loading the website and blogs for the past couple of days.. gonnna post an update here

Thursday - 1250 calories, 70 min gym/60 min hula, water+green tea
(I ate 2 pizzas from pizza hut blotting out the oil and cutting off the stuffed crust so 2 triangles.. I had such a guilt trip for the rest of the day I worked out extra hard >.< thankfully did not effect my weight... I drank water like a camel... so scared of sodium)

Friday - A little over 1250

~1325 calories
due to eating out at Chilli's..I barely ate anything still had a problem staying under.. I was so tempted to eat my BF's fries so I ate 3 fries and felt SUCH A GUILT TRIP ~.~
~30 min elliptical, 30 min pilates, 50 min treadmill, 90 min hulahoop
LOTS of water and green tea... so many bathroom trips >.<

I've been eating a few things I've been craving but it's in such a moderation and I calculate the calories before eating it... but I stilll feel such a HUGE guilt and depression when I eat it even though it's within my calorie allowance. I work out extra hard because of this guilt and drink so much water to make up for it. I need to learn to relax but I think I would rather eat my pre-planned and self-made meals and not have to deal with the huge guilt I feel eating outside food... it's disgusting how much calories are in restaurant foods...

To make matters worse, this site is giving me issues on loading so I don't have my normal outlet to let out my steam.

Official weigh-in is Monday (last monday was 173.5) .. I KNOW 2 lbs should make me happy since that's the recommended weight loss but I WANT more >.< we will see

I hope everyone else is having a saner and smart week. I'm driving myself and soon my bf crazy with the afternath of eating something bad.

In control~Me to! I was totally frustrated trying to log on here yesterday I gave up at 3am.

Yesterday was a good day for me. I didn't get in all my water but food wise I was on plan. I weighed in at 172.2 again today. I am happy. Today I need to rake some leaves that will be my exercise for the day.

I started a new medicine today. It said one of the side effects is weigh gain

I am trying to lose weight not increase it. I may not get along well with the medication

Everyone have a great afternoon Pat

sprklemajik · 11-14-2009, 11:49 PM

I'll give everyone posting points for yesterday. I tried multiple times and it was really difficult.

I've been on plan for food and water, haven't had my extra 30% of exercise, but I've gotten 30 mins each day.

Hope you're all doing excellent.

JazzyPeggy · 11-15-2009, 12:31 AM

I was so frustrated, but I finally realized it wasn't my internet but it was 3fc. so I gave up.

I didn't get any points yesterday anyway. No, let me change that I was good on my food yesterday.

Today
water no
exercise yes
food yes

I'm glad to be back.

weebleswobble · 11-15-2009, 12:41 AM

Enygirl · 11-15-2009, 10:17 AM

Pat - AWESSOME weigh in! I'm so proud of you! You're going to break through the #170's soon!

I agree with everyone - 3fc being down is frustrating!

My wekely weigh in was this morning, and I'm happy to report that I'm down #3.6 this week!

Like I said before - my goal is to lose EVERY WEEK. This was a great start!

Shari

I'm going to wait until the :santa" challenge to start officially posting and being in the challenge. I want to use the rest of this one to get back into the groove

Alright - time to get on with my day.

Dixiemae · 11-15-2009, 03:01 PM

Eny~I am going to wait til next challenge to officially start, I need to get the feel of it again. it is so great to have everyone around me again. I really missed everyone a lot. I dont want to over eat for Thanksgiving. this is perfect timing to make me totally aware of food and calories and exercise

I drank 50 ozs of water yesterday. mostly Chrystal Lite tea and raspberry lemonade. I made many trips to the bathroom. I am happy with yesterday. Food was good was tempted with chocolate pecan pie. I thought of my challenge. Took one tiny taste, it was AWFUL tasting.

didnt want any more of it. I got some walking in but not enough..Im doing yoga this afternoon,

Hope everyone is having a good weekend.
