Yay Kim! Awesome job. So official weight in day was Wednesday and I was only down .8 but after Turkey Day and Aunt Flo came to visit that day too I wasn't too upset. Hopefully I'll be down more by Sunday!
JDiddy: At least you were down & not up!! That's all that matters.
I'm not sure what my scale experience is gonna be like this Monday morning. I'm kinda scared. I had a PMS binge yesterday, but I have been faithfully doing the 30DS for 6 days now, so my measurements could be amazing! Too bad measurements don't count!
I am pounding water right now coz I had chips & salsa earlier, so I need to get this sodium OUT! I'm going to be rushing in the morning because I am going out of town, so I won't be able to update until I get to the airport.
Everyone: make sure to get your numbers in by tomorrow morning. We have been slacking (well, not necessarily our team, but the whole challenge in general), so we need to get our numbers in on time.
Hope you all had a great weekend! I look forward to seeing your numbers in the morning!!
Hey everyone!! My computer died last week so I've been unable to make it on here..
Unfortunately, I'm only down a half pound this week I was actually down two pounds on Thursday, but I went to a Christmas market yesterday and overindulged in mulled wine and strudel. I'm sorry ladies! To be honest, I feel guilty about letting you guys down, but not guilty about my afternoon. I had a wonderful time and it helped me combat the homesickness I've been feeling lately. I feel motivated to be back on track today and hopefully once this salt weight drops I'll have a big weigh in for you all next week!
Overall I've been really good, drinking lots of water and going for several mile walks everyday. I'm going to try to keep that up this week.
Okay, so I won't be able to do my official weigh in (for next week) until Thursday night because I'm coaching now and it contradicts with weight watchers this week. I found another close meeting spot, which is actually in the town I coach in so I can go directly from practice to meeting. I have a feeling that coaching is going to help me with my weight loss as I do a lot of the stuff they do. Although I discovered on Thursday that my knee is not totally healed (as the doctor had said it would be by now). I came down from a lay-up, felt something go wrong and then watched as my knee swelled and turned funny colors. So, I may have to lay off the jumping and apparently check out a different orthopedic...
Unfortunately, I didn't lose but I didn't gain. I started TOM today & I feel rotten. I am super bloated & I just feel icky. I'm thankful that I stayed at 184.0 but also super annoyed because I worked my freaking butt off & have nothing to show for it - although I did lose 1 1/2" this week so that is awesome!
I'm posting our numbers now. Where is the rest of our dang team??
These are the numbers I just posted in BLC thread. I reconfigured the numbers since not everyone weighed in. If I get more numbers, they will change, but this is how it stands as of now.
(5 out of 7 members weighing in)
Total Weight: 941.1 lbs
Weight lost this week: 9.1 lbs!!!
Total goal weight: 698.2 lbs
Amount to lose: 242.9
Chance0421~ Yeah, TOM sucks, but no gain is a good gain!!! (Wow that sounds so cliche) Well, hey, I'd be happy, so congrats! quiddkidd06~ AWESOME JOB!!!
Woohoo!!!
Just takes us a couple weeks to warm up ladies, now it's time to kick some serious butt (competitive side of me is coming out!!!)!!!
I should be looking at a decent loss this week as I have been really OP. I've also been running around with the girls during basketball practice, so I think that boost in activity might help me out on the scales this week. Work will be the challenge tonight. I have a feeling that because the weather sucks it will be a slow night and whenever it's slow, we all sit around and munch. I plan on bringing my journal so I can side track myself, but keeping busy is going to be tough, especially with all the food constantly around. I realize working in the food industry is not the best place for me, but I need the money, so I really don't have a choice right now. Two of my friends have been laid off in the last couple days, so I need to hold on to what I have right now.
I had planned on working out this morning, but my BF fell asleep on the couch last night and was laid out on it when I got up this morning. I refuse to work out in front of him, so I had to wait for him to peel himself off the couch. By the time he finally did I only had 15 minutes before I had to start getting ready for school. Oh, I forgot to mention the part about how I only got 4 hours of sleep also... So I left for school early, got my practice set for tomorrow, feeling a bit tired, but on top of things...
So my knee has been driving me nuts the last couple months and I have been barely getting more than 4 hours of sleep the last few nights. I require 8, so this 4-5 hour crap had to go. So I went to the DR. today, and got some good happy pills to help me sleep. He tried to schedule me for an MRI, but my insurance needs confirmation first. So basically, they want to spend more money to send me to another orthopedist to have them say I need an MRI, because somehow that will save them money??? Stupid. All it means is that I will have to see the orthopedist before AND after the MRI (instead of them just seeing me afterwards), costing them MORE money. I have already seen one orthopedist who wants me to get an MRI, my DR. wants me to get an MRI, BLAH!!! I give. Whatever.
So my activity level has been low due to knee aggravation, although I have been running around with my bball team. I'm hoping that once I start getting a decent amount of sleep each night, I might be able to get my butt out of bed and moving in the morning...
Don't worry, I'm doing really well with food, so I'm still expecting good numbers at my weigh in tomorrow...
Kim: I always find that what helps me not munch when other people are munching is to have my giant water bottle with me. If I am full of water, nothing sounds good even if I know it will taste good.
Good morning Green Team! This has been a weird week for me. I am visiting family so I am kind of at the mercy of wherever my mom wants to go eat. Monday was terrible, yesterday I'm pretty sure I stayed within the calorie range, and today I am going to try really hard to stay OP. I have my food journal out & I'm ready to go. I've been doing the 30DS, but since it's TOM, I just feel like a beached whale no matter what I do. It's quite annoying.
Anyway, I hope you all are doing well. Check in so we can all keep each other accountable!
