I'm down 2.6 this week from last. I am up 1.8 from yesterday.. and KNOW it's from some high sodium choices yesterday and will whoosh away in a day or so. Sundays are usually a day that I allow myself to endulge in things a little more. They are in my calorie limit but are usually more of the not so great for you choices... oh well. As long as the scale moves down for the most part I'm happy
I was doing so well, I came home from Thanksgiving down to 162.5 yesterday, that would be 1.5 from last week! Then this morning I am back up to 164.2. I am not offically weighing in until tomorrow hoping today was a fluke.
I worked out 5 times last week and ate so well over thanksgiving something funky must be going on, hopefully tomorrow will be different!
Great losses everyone! Esp. roserodent! What an ace loss for this week!
I've only lost 1lb this week... which I deserve. I went on a bit of an alcohol/crisps bender this weekend, which my body is still trying to rehydrate from, so I'm lucky I got 175lbs this week.
I gained weight this week I was off plan for about 4 days before/during/after Thanksgiving. I kept saying I'd get back on plan "tomorrow", which never came until Sunday. argh. Not sure if I'll make the 12 lbs down now, but I've been back on plan since Sunday, and have hit the gym hardcore every day so far, and my eating has been on. At least I'm still trying. Good job everyone else!!
I'm at 177 today. Kind of mystified/annoyed. :'( The gym is closed because of the snow, so it means I have to be REALLY critical of what I'm eating... which I do not do well. Ugh, not a good day today, ladies.
I haven't weighed today. Been a depressing week with the snow, almost all my stuff comes in by mail or courier cos I can't get out. Services are all cancelled, so I've been forced to get up against advice and try to get at the world. Have tried to get out in my wheelchair and been dug out of a snowdrift a few times. Shops have only got what they have got, you can't be "picky" about your food, only I need to be "picky" to stay on plan. Took 3 hours to drive 1.9 miles this morning to get medicines that they refused to deliver even knowing they were medicines!!! I'm not taking my clothes off to find out my weight, not in this weather! Will try to update tomorrow when I am not dumb enough to go out. *resisting comfort food and wishing shop had had soup in stock*
I'd like to join if I can. I know we're down to like 2 weeks, but I've actually had a very similar goal for Christmas and have been tracking my weight. So I'll just fill in what my weight has been for the past few weeks.
I've lost 10 of the 12 lbs so far, so only 2 more to go for this challenge, which is great. But if I can, I'd like to be down to 145 by Christmas.
I am down to 269.8! I have gone through three decades in the challenge and that is pretty awesome. Total loss, 14.8. In the interest of full disclosure, I decided to fast for one day (water only). Before the fast I weighed 272. After the fast I weighed 269.8. Though I plan on slowly re-introducing food, I do know I will probably be gaining some of that weight back. I decided to do a one day fast because I was tired of eating, planning food. I now feel thankful for every bit of food I have in my apartment! Also I am re-energized and ready to go!
A no loss for me this week. Not surprised, I lost a lot last week, and this week has been a total sodium-fest because I've been eating the canned goods out of all the cupboards because of the snow issues. Still on plan calorie-wise, but not my first choice of actual food. I expect great things from next week. *fingers crossed*
That and the fact that 1lb is such an important step towards my first mini-goal so of course it had to not meet it, cos life's like that.
Shuffled the table a little so we can keep our running total, and congrats to onedayatatime, first gold medal winner, 12lbs and more!
Newcomers are still welcome, on the proviso that unless you are over 200lbs and you are in the first couple of weeks of your weight loss journey you don't attempt to lose the full 12lbs in the next few weeks, that's not healthy.
