Goooooood (very early) morning, everyone!

And happy week 2 to all!

Was off to a bit of a bumpy start this weekend. Saturday was the first day that I missed my planned exercise in over 4 months! However, I was fairly busy that day, I went out to grocery shop at two different places and was moving around a lot. So, the good news is that I wasn't just a lump all day on the sofa, even though I could've pushed myself to get up on the treadmill.

ALSO, more importantly, I woke up Sunday, dusted myself off and got up on the treadmill, and got a very nice walk in.

Food probably could've been better yesterday, but I'm not getting too caught up on it. If every week was like all of last week, I'd still lose weight and continue to be building my fitness up, so I'm content and I'll aim to make improvements to this week.

I was down 2.8 on the scale this week, so that was certainly nice.

All-in-all, I'm feeling good for the start of the challenge ^_^

Today is my weigh-in day. I am down 3 lbs & excited about it because it finally drops me down into the 200's! I got my "First 5 lbs Lost" gold star online. I haven't started back to school yet, so I haven't had the opportunity to pack my own meals & snacks. I am going on my 4th week this week doing the WW online program, and still learning what works best for me. I find that I sometimes use all of my points up for the day, but I'm still hungry in the evening. I think I need to incorporate more veggies in to my meals to help fill me up without adding points. I'm still learning how to eat better within the Points Plus framework.

I lost 0.2 for my weigh in. I had a rough time with pms/tom for the 2nd time in a row. Just constant hunger issues, no matter how much water I drank, sugar free gum I chewed, food I chose that generally fills me up better like greek yogurt, etc. I was actually probably looking at a 1 lb or so gain earlier in the week but just got back on track and did the best I could for the rest of the week.

But lots of good things going on! I didn't chicken out of the orientation for the intro running group/class thingy, I went camping over the weekend and did some fairly challenging hikes with beautiful views as rewards, and still got lots of activity in general all week.

I had a really bad week with pms cravings and water weight gain and I hope to rid myself of these additional 2 lbs. soon!

Because everyone is supposed to have entered their datas for the week one of the challenge, I completed the chart for the few who haven't by putting their same weight as last week to the ''end of week 1'' column.

If you're late but still want to enter your data, you only have to erase it and put your WI instead and the formulas will do the rest.

--------------

At the end of week one, we lost a total of 24.1 pounds, or 8,00% of the total weight we want to loose!

Good work, ladies!

Good luck everyone this week

Last week was fine for me... tho I was much lazier about cooking and probably didn't get nearly enough vegetables in. Working on doing better this week. I realized I like _SOME_ sweet potatoes! I have also been really lazy with the gym lately and need to get back to it.

Arrg up 0.8 lb. I lost so much my first week (4.4 lb) they told me it might because my body went into shock. At least I'm still in the negatives and we'll just change it up a little this week.

I started school last week too, so I was eating later than I was my first week and taking a snack with me to class (night class). I stayed within my points though which is frustrating! Ohh well. Back at it though!

Good luck to everyone else this week!

Great job ladies! I WI tomorrow (the end of my week 1) so I'll update then. Hopefully I'm in the negative for the first time in almost a month!

Down 2lbs this week! I also hit the gym 3 times which was one of my goals. Didn't get to walk with the baby at all this week, but I'll keep working on that throughout the challenge. Woohoo!
