Red Team Chat Thread Week 6 (7/5-7/11) - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

shan84 · 07-05-2010, 12:12 AM

Good luck this week ladies. I am still on vacation in Florida until Wednesday. I will try to have results for you soon.

shan84 · 07-05-2010, 01:17 AM

Results are posted. We lost more members this week for lack of weigh ins or personal reasons.

Also, please note our results would have been different in that we would have had the overall biggest loser for this weel except the person who had the largest percentage of weight loss didn't participate in the weekly chat at all. If you read the rules of the challenge, you must particpate even if its just one response the whole week so that you can be eligible for the biggest loser title.

All that being said, good luck ladies. Here's to a good week. We are down to 26 members. Let's stay strong!

Wow I didn't have the biggest loss but didn't realize we had to post at least once during the week - I am going to have to do much better at this

And I need to step up my weightloss as well so here I go

Trying to get into the swing of being home with the kids during the day and working in the evenings. I hope my diet doesn't suffer. It's hard to stay out of the kitchen- looking for food even when I'm not hungry. Shall prove interesting.
coolish weather here in Calgary today not even 60 and the kids are asking about swimming! LOL. Hopefully later in the week I'll take them to a splash park.
Hope everyone's week has started off well.
ChopperChick- good to see you!

Put new batteries in the scale and now I'm weighing a few pounds heavier. I'm going to have to bust my tail to not post a gain this week. Kind of a bummer to find out you weigh more than you thought, but it makes sense, I've been feeling bigger. My new job starts tomorrow which should help my weight loss (although perhaps not immediately); I do well wit routine.

Hello, hope everyone had a good 4th of July. Time off flys by

Back to work yet again tomorrow....
We had a good weekend . First day camping it was windy( VERY WINDY!), a storm brought 4 inches of rain in a little bit of time, a good light show & thunder... We woke up to a half a day of sprinlkles and a beautiful 4th the rest of the day.

I ate much and drank much... I could not figure a calorie count for all the different foods... I did portion control and all in all it must have been okay...I'm 1 pound up from when I left, I was expecting more!

Back to a new week and a new me

GO RED TEAM!

Hi Red Team,
I'm one of the people who aren't part of the challenge anymore. Sorry about that, guess too much is getting in the way this summer. I'll try again in the fall and see how that goes. I'm still working on my house and hope to get at least mostly moved the first part of Aug. The good thing is that I don't have to move out of where I live now, so have that for storage at least until we decide what to do with it.
Have a great challenge and I'll drop in now and again to check up on you

Hello! I also wasn't aware that there were so many rules...I'm going to try and keep them all straight!

I went to the Fair today, it was closing day and was so crowded. http://www.sdfair.com/fair/

MAN, the things people were eating!

I didn't buy a single thing, I took my food in and stayed on plan.

Best of luck to everyone, make it count!

shan84 · 07-06-2010, 07:25 PM

Hope everyone is having a good week.

It's not that there are a lot of rules. Its just guidelines to help keep things fair and fun for everyone who participates in the challenges. These have been in place for many past challenges as well.

I've been doing really well with my diet while on vacation here in Florida. Heading to Phoenix tomorrow and I will be there for two weeks or so. Excited to go home and relax. Have a good night everyone, be back tomorrow to check in.

MonteCristo · 07-06-2010, 08:54 PM

Still holding steady...if I ever get back to the gym steady I know I'll start losing weight faster!

doc2b · 07-07-2010, 01:24 AM

Sorry I missed weigh-in red team! I was out of town for my 1 year anniversary! I hope everyone had a great holiday and is ready to get back to it...CONGRATS to all who stayed OP of the holiday (wish I was one of you)!

TERAPET · 07-07-2010, 12:11 PM

Hi Everyone,

I am back from vacay. I was totally off plan the last week so I hope to get back in the swing of things today. I skipped the Y but went for a long walk with my neighbor this morning. I am up a pound from all my shenanigans but I am hoping getting back to my routine will make a difference before the next weigh in.

ChopperChick355 · 07-07-2010, 10:37 PM

Good Luck at your new job Ashley

Happy Anniversary Doc2b

Tarapet and Blueeyes to be on vacation and only come back gaining a pound is great - Shoot I usually gain at least 4 then it takes me a whole week to lose that..... So you must have watched your portions controls and stayed consious

Well I am trying to get my butt in gear but I am working very long hours 4am till usually 5-6pm so when I get home I am to tired to do anything- which with that I should get off to bed have a Great Thursday
