  • I tried on the 16's yesterday, and Im hoping it was just the moisturizer that I had on my legs. Because they didnt want to go up past my hips Made yesterday really tough to get thru! I knew I had put alot of weight on in my legs, butt and belly, but I didnt realize just how much!. Seems every time I gain weight back on, it goes someplace different Just means I'll have to do a bit more walking and cardio to get that stuff widdled off.

    I made it thru yesterday ok, stayed op, but fought the fat lady alot!

    Today's plan

    Breaky~ protein/fibre shake
    Lunch~ 2 boiled eggs w/butter
    Supper~ tilapia and veggie medley

    Snacks~ slim jim, 1oz cheese, boiled egg

    yesterday I needed all my snacks, but still managed to stay under 20carbs.
  • just a note: when your fighting the inner fat lady....DO NOT go into a grocery store, let alone a grocery store that is baking bread! talk about tough, I couldnt get out of there fast enough!
  • Alright......where is everybody????


    Did good yesterday....havent gotten much if any exersice this week. I have to work on that!!

    Today's plan

    Breaky~ protein/fibre shake

    I WILL go for a walk today (before noon)!!
  • I'm still here. This thread is HUGE and we're not even CLOSE to Christmas (yes, I'm deluding myself....so we'll leave it at that )
  • Don't worry Robin, you know that before long you WILL be in those 16's! Then 14's, 12's and 10's WOOHOO!!!

    Did alright today eating wise, pigged out on a taco salad, ate the burger from burger king....I'm hoping so bad to be at 190 by Christmas!!!

    I need to re-think my goals again, get tougher on myself.
  • I dont see why you couldnt make 190 by christmas....thats very do-able! How thrilling!! I cant wait until I get where you are!

    Food was good yesterday, I didnt eat any snacks, and supper was not eaten until about 630, and if dh hadn't of made it, I probably would have skipped it. I just wasnt hungry. Mind you the steaks were darned tastey

    Today's plan

    Breaky~ protein/fibre shake
    Lunch~ 2 eggs w/butter
    Supper~ Im not sure, I think I'll check and see if I can find some nice salmon someplace, or a rainbow trout...and some veggies
  • New goal for me.

    I WILL ONLY WEIGH ON FRIDAYS.

    I'm becoming FAR TOO posessed with weighing five times a day and freaking if the scales go up.

    once a week, once a week......
  • Eating was good yesterday, ended up eating only 1/2 of my supper. Still not hungry.

    Today's plan

    Breaky~ protien/fibre shake
    Lunch ~2 boiled eggs w/butter
    Supper~ chicken breasts w/broccoli

    Weigh in tomorrow
  • Well, I was worried about today, I really didnt think I had lost any weight. BUT I managed to loose 4 more lbs this past week. This week has actually been easier than any of the others...inner fighting wise. Maybe thats why I thought I didnt loose....I didnt have to fight for it as much?

    Im going to stay on induction another week....I like the way its going too much to change just yet.

    Today's plan

    Supper~ cornbeef (1st time trying to cook this) and some sort of veggie
  • Morning all....I weighed in and am at 267, not where I wanted to be, but still very proud of myself. The goal I set for myself when I first joined this group back in July was to be at 265 by Christmas. I can see that happening, I just don't think I will be at the 258'ish goal for the challenge. Right now I'm gonna shoot for 262, that is 5lbs and very doable. I am still on induction, Day #8 and I plan on staying on that plan for as long as possible.

    Breakfast SFLC Shake
    Lunch: SFLC Shake
    Supper: Ground Beef, Salad w/bacon bits, olives, cheese and ranch dressing.
    Water: 64ozs. min.
