  • Philana- Welcome! I gave up sugar! I'm still eye balling all of the sweets in site. It's terrible!
  • I know that I am nearly a week late, but I'd like to join too!
    For Lent I'm giving up chocolate and I am hoping to move off this damn plateau (but stuck since December!).

    SW: 159 (TOM, was 156)
    GW: 151
  • I'm in! It's perfect timing actually...I leave for Hawaii 2 days after Easter. I would love to be in the 130s by then. Feb has been a rough month so I'm hoping the scale will be nicer in March

  • Princess- I have 3 boys and they are amazing! But now its time to officially work on me I researched everything within my budget ($1000) and ended up trying them out in the store and liked the Horizon EX-59 which I printed a 20% off coupon and paid less then 540 including the mat! I just did 3 miles on it and am feeling accomplished since the other day I couldn't even do 10 minutes. I hope the weight starts falling off! Let's do this
  • Blcarter84- That's awesome I babysit 4 boys so I know you must have your hands full! I haven't seen that one- I will have to check it out!
  • How is everyones week going?
  • So yesterday was super crazy and end of story I didn't feel well and didn't stay so much on track. Today was a MUCH better day and I stayed completely on plan AND did 3 miles on my elliptical. ALso I avoided the temptation to stand on the scale, trying to wait until Sunday to weigh myself and hopefully I will like what I see. How is everyone else coming along?
  • Congrats on getting three miles on the elliptical

    I've been sick the past few days too. Got a 3 mile jog in today but after I was just DONE...Went back up to 185.4...always have a gain when I get sick so no biggie
  • Yeah I'm not feeling so well today but I got in some pilates this morning. Lost another 0.5kg/1lb so far, but not sure how I'm gonna go as I'm coming up to my TOM! Good luck for tomorrow everyone
  • My weight is at a standstill still sadly. I've had a weird TOM (8 days late, massive bloating, bad cramps... fun times) but I'm sitting on 157... so I'm hoping that as TOM finishes, I may get a downward movement finally. I've been moving between 159 and 156 for 3 months now.

    Exercise wise, I've done really well this week. I moved up the weight that I'm lifting (am 8 weeks into weight lifting, moved from 3kg weights to 5kg!) and have just started the Bridge to 10K program again. So yesterday I ran 3 17 min intervals. Didn't run the fastest ever, but I completed the intervals, and that's my main aim.

    Hope everyone is having a lovely week =)
  • I'm vowing not to get on the scale until this weekend. I'm getting obsessed again. I didn't do so well yesterday and already today I'm at my calorie limit. I can go up another 200 because I think 1380 is too low for me. I prefer 1500. I still need to go workout- I will probably do that this evening. I started running and taking spin again
  • My weight was up and not really budging earlier this week, but TOM started today and hopefully that means the scale will start going down again soon!

    We will see! I am flying out Friday night to visit my sister and my nephews in Oklahoma for a couple days, so I will probably go by my Friday weight for this week. Hope that's ok!
  • Princess- sometimes I find fluctuating my caloric intake works out better as long as they are healthy choices. Also I hope you got your workout in tonight I know I got mine and I was sweating like a pig!! Chele-have fun visiting your nephews and you can weigh in whenever you'd like its all about the end result and meeting our goals anyway.

    As for myself, I stayed within my eating plan AND scrubbed my kitchen and bathroom down, did some laundry, and made a huge grocery trip tonight. Which I followed with my 3 miles on the elliptical. My legs are still burning! I am also a scale addict and have managed to stay off of it for a few days now so I'm hoping it'll say what I want it to come weigh in time!
  • I'll join this one two.

    Starting weight: 160

    since I change my St. Patty's Day Challenge weight to be 157.

    I'll make Easter 155 for my goal weight.
  • I would like to join!
