Novus - 1.8 again for you! You are doing great! I hit 1.8 this week also! I'm doing low carb, healthy eating also and we seem to have similar plans. I need to check your cooking ideas. I'll try to talk more on chat.

Buddha - Hope you are still with us. You can do this!

Rated - Remember back in the day we had a friendly challenge going? I think it was on Sarge's thread. I miss the carolina girl, can't remember her name. She was good for getting everyone on track.

Dangerous Curves - Hope you were able to stay steady this weekend! We could use some weight loss on this team!

Nlauah - Good for you - back to exercising. Don't worry about the scale, probably just a little muscle/water weight.

Jumzy - Stopping at 6 pm is a great idea. Evenings are my hard time too. Sometimes brushing my teeth helps me not eat in the evenings.

We have to keep the Red members we have - there were so few to start! Don't forget to weigh-in today!

Everyone - Check out Novus's weekly eating on the nutrition thread. She rocks in the food department! So much imagination - so much variety - so many recipes - and very healthy eating! I am inspired and hope to learn a lot from her.

Go Red Team!

It's weigh-in day!
 

Hi all! :wave:

After running around for two days trying to keep my visiting family members entertained, I woke up this morning dreading the scale. Gave myself a pep talk and stepped on. Same weight as last week! :dizzy:

Yes, I'm bummed that I didn't post a loss. But super excited that with all the distractions, temptations, and pms hunger pangs; I somehow managed to not gain weight. Good news for me, not so great for the team. No worries though, I promise to kick it up a notch next week.

Plans for Week 3: continue to drink more water, no food after 9 pm, add treadmill running to workout schedule, and daily meal prep the night before.

Let's go RED TEAM! We can do this! :grouphug:

Hey guys! Apologies for the 2lb gain :mad: was not my best week. No excuses, my off plan day turned into 4 days, but I am back OP and will do better next weigh in I promise :) I hope everyone is doing well xx

Novus - I agree that in the past the chat has been a lot more active. I can't speak for anyone else but I have been so busy with work the last few weeks. By the time I get home, make dinner, walk my dog and do my workout I am usually headed straight to bed. I will make more of an effort to get on this thread daily and contribute because I think it helps me stay on track. Also there isn't a rule that you have to participate in the chat thread but if you want a chance to be the biggest loser at the end you must have regularly posted in the chat thread.

I am also going to check out your nutrition posts since I would like to eat lower carb for breakfast and lunch at least.

Kris - yes I remember you from Sarge's thread. I wish that thread was still around because I loved the no excuses tough love stance.

Sounds like everyone has had a busy week! Happy to finally hear a few more voices on the chat thread. :)

Anxiously awaiting the weekly results. Go Team Red! :cheer2:


:thanks:

I have the calculations finished but I am just waiting to here back from Bidmid about a clarification. I will have them posted as soon as I hear from her

Hi everyone .. so sorry for being AWOL .. its been havoc at my new job and time online has been more limited than I usually have ... but will try to get back on track again .. fortunately Mothers Day has passed and I have been told that things should be calming down at work now (hopefully!).
