-- i've changed official weigh in to wednesdays... but today which WAS my official weigh in before i changed it, the scale read 193. I'LL TAKE IT! let's see if it changes tomorrow
-- also, if my body keeps losing at this rate, i'll hit my goal for the challenge way before, so i'll make a secondary goal to try to hit that one after!
Ok so I'm not off to a great start but it's a definite improvement over how I have been. Hopefully my weight will be under 134 at the gym this afternoon, but I'm not holding my breath. Last night I had a major chocolate craving and caved to it, and just ate way too much candy. It didn't put me over calories for maintenance, but certainly did for getting back to 130-133. I wish I could say today will be better, but I'm going out to eat tonight for a special occasion. I will not use that as a license to binge, however.
Wow missita, you're going to breeze right by your challenge goal!! Yay!
Thanks to the ladies in the 160s thread I have renewed faith in myself and my weight loss efforts... I'll be working really hard the next few weeks to get to my Spring goal!!!We can ALL do this!!!
mkendrick, I know you are right so I'm going to ride it out but I'm hoping it goes away soon. How long was it before your weight was back on track? Hopefully not more than a week. I need a loss on Monday!
missy, thanks for the advice about stretching I prob don't do enough of that especially before so I'm going to try that tonight and see if it gets any better. And way to go on the loss you're going to reach your goal in no time!
forest, don't get too down about the candy! You are still really close to where you want to be and I'm sure you'll get back there in no time!
Missita wow you're going to breeze by your goal way to go!
Thanks for the support/advice ladies I really appreciate it! I'm up another lb this morning and my muscles are more sore today so I'm hoping that's it. I'm just gonna stay OP, drink lots of water and stretch alot! Lol

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. I'm so frustrated. I was doing good, but I'm alittle off track! I need to change how I eat and how much! I'm changing my goal wieght for March 20. =(
I'm sorry your not doing so great Snow, just keep at it you can do it! And there's no shame in changing your goal, I changed mine too after I realized I wasn't going to lose 10 lbs in 4 weeks.
SW: 166.2
CW: 163.8
GW: 159.5
Still a little up but not as bad, so I think the water weight is going away slowly. I'm hoping for 161 something this Monday!
fashinjunkie09-Thank you so much. You will get there by monday. And I somehow lost wieght over night, I wieghed myself 3 times just to make sure the scale wasn't jacked up.
sw:148
cw:143.8 (I'm not jumping up and down, I had a really hard day...but I'm happy about the wieght. I don't feel like it's going to stay there, that's just to wierd...we'll see.)
gw:140
I did run/fast walk for 30-40 minutes, and didn't eat any dinner. (I ate to much earlier).
SnowWolf, I'd be very pleased with progress if I were you. You've lost a good chunk, and you're close to your challenge goal Way to go!
I have been totally sporadic with my weigh ins the last two weeks. I was in a mini-plateau, hovering between 150.5 and 149.5, so I started weighing everyday. Then that started to bum me out, so I didn't weigh on my official weigh in day (yesterday). But I weighed today, and I have hopefully finally broken through that rut.
i've been pushing myself with the exercise the last couple of weeks. doing fine, there. but until last night, i was really struggling with night snacking. healthy snacking, but in excess! very much. that put a standstill on things for the week. i think i'm good now and weighed in remarkably low this morning. 218. of course i was super excited to be in the 200 & teens, but i'm not holding my breath. maybe i should, though. last week was beginning of TOM.
excited about a healthy eating workshop that at the yoga center saturday. it is really important for me to shake things up every week or so to stay motivated. next week i am going to the aquatic center to workout with a friend. i think the following week i might scam a free trial at the local gym (the nice one...)
fashin- thanks! i'm sure you'll be under 160 in no time.
mkendrick- looks like you are definitely out of the 150s for good!
katiecron- glad your standstill is over--even if the 218 doesn't stick, I bet something under 220 will
I feel a bit better about how things are going. Waist measurement is a solid 27", so even though weight is still up a bit (133-134) I think I'm toning up and gaining muscle. My trainer moved her Omron bf% monitor so I haven't been able to do my beginning of the month test, but she'll be back from vacation soon so I can check in then. I just went grocery shopping at the natural foods coop last night so I finally have delicious fresh food to cook for myself and I am way easing up on the processed stuff. I'm going to go on a long run tonight, and things are generally feeling good! Just over 2 weeks left till new progress photos good luck everyone!
2 pounds lost this week. My scale at home is a bit crazy, so it is hard for me to get a concrete number. I use the scale at the gym for my weigh ins, but I think it is a couple pounds high. I would rather overestimate than underestimate though.
I am 2 1/2 weeks into no sugar! I have found that by cutting out sugar, I am naturally drinking more water. I plus that I didn't even know would happen!

Way to go mkendrick! I am so happy for you. And thank you. I very much appreciate the support at this point.
