Well, I was down 2 lbs mid-week but back up to no loss by my official weigh-in ( *le sigh* ). Yesterday was not a great day for eating (spent the day at a Ren Fair, no outside food or drink allowed :( ). But the good news is that I easily fit into my costume dress which was a real squeaker a year ago (and that was lower than my eventual HW).
I do expect slower progress at this level, so for now I am just going to keep doing what I am doing and see if things shake loose. Even if I don't lose anything, I can view it as practice maintenance. Congrats to everyone making good progress! |

Ok so hello everyone, sorry for being a stranger but life can be hectic at times. I just wanted to pop in a say congrats to everyone for staying OP and losing. Even if it's a pound it still counts as a loss. I have good news to report, I have lost another 6 lbs so that only leaves me with 2 lbs to reach my challenge goal. :) As for my exercising I could be doing more but I have made it 3 times in a row, so I am on a streak. I had also set my goal to drink my water, 8x8oz=64oz, and not doing such a good job on that. Then heard some people say that it was a debunked myth that you had to drink that much. I've actually found some articles that say that number is more than the average person needs. I'll post one from Blue Cross Blue Shield site, let me know what you guys thinks. I have decided that as long as I get in 40oz a day I will be doing good. I have also pretty much cut out diet drinks. I didn't set out to do so, it just sorta happened. I pretty much just drink water or the occasional juice (V8 and V8 fruit juices taste great to me). Anyway, my mom is finally being released from the hospital today, after a 7 day stay. She isn't 100% now but they need to wait for her ulcer to get better b4 they put the stent in. I have to get ready to pick up my son from school and then go get her. The link for the water isn't working, just do a search on 8 glasses of water myth. |
Hey all. It's been a while since I've posted.. sorry!
Things around here are going well. I am 3lbs from my Halloween goal. :carrot: Quote:

Just wanted to pop in and say Congrats to everyone's weight loss...way to go :carrot::carrot::carrot:
While I have been on and off plan...my TOM has finally left me and I am back on track today. I am feeling good. I starting walking at lunch again. I am still proud of myself for maintaining my weigh for the past 5 month's. I ate a Smart Ones for the first time today for lunch...YUMMY!!! I have been stuck on Lean Cuisines all these years and just plain had enough of them.... Now all I have to do is wait for someone to have Smart Ones on sale. |
Hello, guys. :)
Just had to congratulate you all on a good job- everyone seems to be doing well towards their goals- and of course I wish you all the best of luck for this week. :df: As for my progress, I haven't much to say... Weight loss has been slow since I've gotten into the 140's; I seem to only lose in .5 lb increments these days... but I am happy for having weight loss occur at all. I do believe that I am down a half lb since I last posted here, so yay to that. :D Though the weight loss is slow, this appears to be one of those often-reported periods of weight loss speed ceasing, however my body itself is firming up and getting smaller regardless. That makes me happy. Anyway, good wishes to all of you. Heh, this thread really makes me long for October to come; my favorite month. :sklol: |
Hi everyone. You are all doing so well and it is great to read about your results. For everyone having a tougher time, :hug:. Hang in there.
I am down another five, according to my crazy scale. I am happy with that. :D I am not eating enough, the last couple of days. But I am going to try to do better. And I am exercising and getting my water. (I also don't drink 64 oz. I just drink to my thirst and stay hydrated.) I am still hoping that I am going to make my Hallowe'en goal. I don't know... But I am trying. |
good morning,
life has been CRAZY and seems to be getting worse!! LOL I am not eating enough some days and am trying to eat more today and i have not exercised for a few days..gotta get back at it!! Wedding planning is alot more work than i realised!! Still having trouble matching her color..oh well it will work out.. Still waiting for my little granddaughter to arrive..36 weeks today and they are setting the date to induce in 2 weeks.I would love to be 5lbs less by then. Still hoping to make my goal for halloween 9 more lbs to go. hugs to all |
I usually go straight to the gym after school, but on Wednesdays, I go with a friend of mine who can't make it until after 6pm. I am so antsy!! haha Well, antsy and completely exhausted. I am sitting on my bed, somewhat under my covers because my feet are cold, and I feel like I could take a nap right now!
I think I might actually take the time now to go make my lunches for the next two days of work. That should kill at least a couple minutes! haha |
Congrats to eveyone for doing so great!!! :)
I am down 1 lb, which I guess is 1 lb lighter than I was a week ago but was hoping to see more. I think that I am going to start Calorie Cycling. I have read a lot about it and I am going to give it a whirl. I also am going to up my cardio. Now that it is getting colder and darker a lot earlier, ugh!! I am going to have to use my treadmill more so I am going to try to do some interval training!! Good luck everyone and keep up the good work!! :) |
Guess what I found! My wristbones. :carrot: I didn't even realize they were missing until I noticed them today while I was driving. Now to dig out those collar and hip bones!!!!! :D

Another good, on track day, today. I ate a bit more. But I am still nowhere near my target range. I got a good 40 minutes of cardio in, too. Hang in there, have a great on track day. |

Congrats on the pound loss!! Every little but helps towards your goal. I am not consciously calorie cycling, however, whatever I am doing is working. I am down a pound this morning. Finally the scale has moved... YEAH!! On Tuesday and Thursday I do not go home after work so I make those two days a sort of free day at lunch. I have chicken on a wrap with two slices of provolone cheese... It is up there in calories so this is my big meal of the day.... this fills me up until I get home at 7:30 pm... then I allow myself another 100 calories for a snack. I am guessing on these two days I maybe hit 1500 or 1600 and the rest of the week I am aiming at 1200-1300. So I guess this is calorie cycling... Also, depending on what kind of week I have had... I allow myself a REAL CHEAT meal on Saturday. |
Morning everyone. :hug:
Been a bit nuts around here, but I wanted to check in. Eating has been worse than normal, more due to lack of planning on my part, than any cravings. I'm trying to get back on the straight and narrow today, with a protein shake for breakfast, and packing salmon and broccoli for lunch, since I have to be at my sister's most of the day. Running dogs was put on hold due to the heat, but yesterday the weather turned cool and rainy, so tomorrow morning I will run my 2, then Sunday Gracie (my dog) and I are going to a group run with some other dogscooter teams, running on a trail that cuts through the pumpkin farms. This is a great time of year to do that run! Okay, gotta fly. I will catch up on posts soon, very soon, I promise! :hug: to everyone! |
