I just posted my weight. I work nights and sometimes I don't wake up till after 6pm on Sundays. Next week I'll make sure that I post on Saturdays. It's not like I changed my weight at all. Maintained

Congratulations to our Biggest Losers and to everyone for completing week 2!

Nice group loss everyone. Stick with it.

Happy Monday Team! Kick off another healthy week!

In before the lock and in the right thread this week with a 2 lb. loss. Hoping for the same next week.

Congratulations to Red Team winners (and losers)! Keep it up!

[aseret123]

Hi Red Team,
Congrats to all the biggest losers!!
Happy Monday, there isn't any school today so DD is home and I can't slip off and workout s I'll do it tomorrow and just use dvds at home today. I'll get my 300 calorie burn today if I do the yoga and 2 mile WATP. DS has snowmobile fever, he thinks he wants to buy one now, but it makes no sence because he is going overseas for a year this summer, and his leave ends the end of the week. So he would have less than a week to play with it. Hopefully he outgrows in when he is gone.
I hope everyone has a great week, I'm workking hard to get off my food binge so I hope I get a loss this week.

Congratulations everyone on another great week. WTG

Aseret123 for being our BL this week.

I'm trying not to get down, but I am feeling rather frustrated at how slow this weight is coming off. I have been working out a lot, and eating under my allotted calories, and yet I am barely losing. I am trying to stay focussed on how I feel, as I do feel really good, but it's hard when the scale isn't co-operating. I've made a promise to myself that no matter what I am not giving up this time.

Have a wonderful day everyone

Apologies for not weighing in! I actaully forgot It won't happen again, as I will put reminders on my phone.

I hope everyone had a great week!

Congrats to the biggest losers with the honourable mentions

Great Losses Red Team!!!! Let's keep up the great work~~~

Here we are rollin' into week 3.

Blue team beat us by 3.05 pounds!

'Cmon ladies. Let's turn up the heat!

Week 3 of the 52 changes is get off & stay off the couch. How to be more active in your daily life.

I wear a pedometer & try to hit 10K steps/day. Right now it's easy as dh sprained his ankle, so I'm walking the dog 2x/day. Plus its -26C (~-15F), which makes we walk faster! I want to know if your body naturally burns more energy trying to stay warm? I sure hope so.

Daimere- you can post any day of the week- which every day is your weigh in day...as long as it's posted by 6pm Central Sunday. I use my weigh in from Friday or Saturday- (yes I'm a dreaded daily weigher).

Narnia- don't get too discouraged. Have you ever tried calorie cycling? Where you have your total calories for the week and you mix up your days with higher calorie days/lower calorie days? Sometimes- that's the small change we need to shake things up! Try to focus on NSV's too- are measurements changing? Clothes fitting differently?

It's late & i'm getting cold sitting at the computer- time to run up the stairs to a hopefully warm bed. Night all!

[Sarati]

Mel all I can say is ~~Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!~~

[CanadaMel]

It's even colder this morning. -30c (-22F). Layering up to walk the dog- ugh

[kris2008]

Mel - That is just too darn cold!!!!! It was 35 yesterday when I walked and I thought my cheeks would freeze off! Guess we have thin skin down here in the lower 48.

[peanutt]

Oh Mel, I feel your pain! We're sitting in that deep freeze up here too. I am so thankful for my treadmill!
