Well it is just to freakin hot here to exercise. I am doing what I can but it is already 33c with the humidity in the am so I haven't been doin my dvd's :( It is supposed to get a little cooler over the next few days so I have just been doing some walking at lunch time but eating well.

Welcome to the challenge Ferret! :wave:

Had a bad food weekend - high on carbs and fat, low on protein and I can feel it in the way my dress it fitting today. Won't let this stop me though, just motivate me to buckle down and do better.

Tiki.

Today is the first day of my return to WW/SBD which worked for me before so I am trying it out again :crossed:

I'm a little late getting started but I think I can manage SOMETHING in 2 weeks. I haven't been on this list in a while, good to see a lot of familiar names. :D

Current weight: 187
July 1 Mini-goal: 3 lbs
and
Non-scale goal: keep eating in for lunch, no more sugary treats, keep walking daily.


I wanted to get down to 176 by my birthday July 8th but I don't think I can still make that. But anything would be better than nothing. Thanks for listening (reading). ;)

good luck girls!

Thought I should check in and show I'm still alive :) I'm down 2 lbs so far this month, which is right where I wanted to be. My food has been on plan, but my exercise has ground to a halt because of my back pain. I think I'm feeling well enough to take a walk today finally, but I'm going to be really careful. I don't want any more set backs! This has been my longest episode of back pain ever. I thought that I wouldn't have to deal with this after losing the bulk of my extra weight. Guess I was overly optomistic. Okay, I'm done whining!

ellis 06-15-2005 12:31 PM

By golly! I forgot all about this! :lol:
I'm still alive, too. And I've gained 3 pounds. sigh.
But I started running today! :hat:

Tani, I'm sorry about your back pain. :( Sending you healing hugs... :grouphug:

mauvaisroux 06-15-2005 01:30 PM

Aww...ellis, that sucks! :( But I am sure you will lose it soon enough - you can do it! :cheer:

Tani-hope your back is better soon -sending you healing vibes :goodvibes

I not doing well in the loss department but I am doing better in the exercise department so that is some progress :D

hannah_phi 06-15-2005 03:00 PM

Just thought I'd check in as well. I'm down further than I'd planned (3 pounds), but I'm hesitant to count the extra as a victory since it is probably due to the stomach flu I had last week. I won't be surprised if I gain it back quick now that my eating is back to normal. :( Despite the fact that I couldn't really exercise while I was sick last week I've managed to stay on plan. I even went for a high altitude walk on Sunday, there were still patches of snow on the ground! :cool:

Tani 06-21-2005 02:44 PM

Thanks guys! As I've all ready posted elsewhere I'm finally feeling lots better. Thanks for the good vibes :)

mauvaisroux 06-22-2005 09:33 AM

hanna phi - Way to go - it's very hard to stay OP when you are sick but you managed :cp:

Glad you are feeling better Tani! :)

Well I had decided to go with a non-scale goal this month and I have managed to lose 3.5 lbs so far. Hmm....maybe I should focus less on the numbers since it seems to work better :D I have increased my exercise a wee bit but I still need to improve on getting into a regular routine...

AngelleNoire 06-23-2005 12:09 AM

I met my scale goal! Whoo!! This is the first time I've met a weight loss goal. I still haven't gotten my tai-chi tape but I did my walking and will keep walking. I am also working on my water intake.

mauvaisroux 06-23-2005 09:46 AM

Way to go! :bravo:

Tani 06-23-2005 01:17 PM

Woohoo! :D
