hi ladies!!
just noticed im still whooshing, weighed in at 177.8 this morning!! (i didn't even see 178, and i sincerely hope not to).
at this rate, if i lose just under 2 lbs a week until valentines day, i will hit 169 which is my 100lb-aversary woohooooo
today is also day 11 of the 30 day bikram challange, i've been upping my calories, even had a mcdonalds ice cream cone, and an extra 300 un accounted grams of melon last night, STILL A LOSSSS.
Jiggle: Thanks for the advice. I decided not to do anything crazy today. I'm glad I didn't. I know what you mean about not still thinking about being "morbidly obese"!
just checking in to let you all know that day two is nearly done and I've been OP. Came in a little under yesterday at 1091 so am aiming a little higher tonight. Did 35 mins on TM yesterday and 55 mins today. Doing good on water 100+ oz.
So far so good!
Tomorrow is supposed to be TOM so we'll see what happens with that. I remember last time I still lost for the first couple of months even on TOM, but who knows what will happen this time around.
Thanks so much for all the support! I'm enjoying getting to "know" you all and catch up with those I've known a while!
Yesterday was a bust for me, so today I am gonna up the exercise and really watch the food intake. I am not going to make my goals unless I kick it into high gear!! Here's to making today COUNT!
Have a great one Ladies!!
Came in at 1705 yesterday and I'm good with that as it's in the fat loss range. Going to shoot for a slightly lower count today, more water, and exercise. I would love to see a loss this week.
Good morning, I hope you're all having a great start to the day!
I decided since TOM is supposed to arrive, I'd take a peek at the scale this morning and I've lost 2.2 pounds so I'm happy about that.
I ended the day yesterday with 1420 cals.
I've just got to remind myself to take one day at a time and not worry about the big picture. Today I'm going to stay OP and tomorrow I will choose again to stay OP. And the next day, and the next day, and the next day!
Good morning ladies,
I had a stellar day yesterday. I feel pretty good about today being another good day. Today will be a higher calorie day but they will be healthy calories so when measure day arrives I will be happy with myself!!!
Hello everyone! I have been struggling to stay on plan with the new year and Im just trying to hang in there. Taking itone day at a time. Hoping to have a great on plan day!
I was right at my limit of 1550 cals yesterday and 1/2 hour of weights & yoga. Tonight I have zumba and about 1350 cals "scheduled"...but might end up adding an extra healthy snack in there if I'm still hungry after class & dinner.
Jiggle: I'm not sure how not to think like a morbidly obese person all the time. Sometimes I feel and act like a "normal" person, but deep down, I can't shake the notion of the fat girl.
Stim: that's great!!
Everyone else: hope your "hump" day is productive, OP and great!
Hey everyone!!!! I can't write very much I have to go to work, but I just wanted to let you know that I've been doing well! I've already lost 10 of my 20 pound goal, so I'm assuming that is mostly water weight. But hey, I will take it! As long as the scale is dropping!! I need to work more on my exercising I have been slacking on that a little bit, but will get a session in tonight after work. Its funny just how the little amount of weight you lose can be an extreme motivator. I was so sluggish, but forced myself to stick to my calorie limit, etc and with even the (water) weight coming off it has made me so motivated to keep going. IT feels great!!
Looks like you guys are all doing well too!!!! Let's keep it up!!!
JDonato: CONGRATS ON YOUR ENGAGEMENT!!!!!!!!! Yay!! You can do it!!!!!
Susieyarb: Glad to see you are back !!!!!!!! I'm sorry to hear about your loss... , but stay strong and you will definitely get back to where you were
At first I didn't think I'd do mini-goals this time around, but I remembered how much fun it was in the beginning to reach those goals have give myself a little reward! So I've decided to change my ticker to reflect my new start instead of the journey from before and gave myself some fun mini-goals to reach for! They're things that I'd probably do anyhow (except the mani/pedi) but it will be fun to "earn" them!
