Well I weighed in this morning and I'm pretty sure my scale is broke. There's no way I'm really 131.6 because when I was down to that last year, I felt much skinnier and my clothes fit much better... but that's what it said so that's what I'm going with until I re-weigh in the morning. If it is by some miracle true, I need to adjust my goal... my goal of 12 lbs would put me under 120 and I'm 5'7"... I think I need to just change my goal to "weigh 125."

1/11 ~ 131.6 (for now.... hmmm)

I did pretty well over the weekend and yesterday. Got my workout in but pulled a muscle so a little sore, but not going to let that stop me from working out. Today is yoga day.

Amy -

I'm finding the same thing about the scale and clothing sizes being different than in the past, not always for the better. But still, a loss is great, and hopefully some extra toning work will get you where you want to be in terms of the clothing.

wow, you're doing great! hope you have a good yoga class.

I'm revising my calorie goal to 1300-1600. I've been reading up on this a bit and I think I was a bit too low given my current weight and activity level.

Hi everyone! I'd love to join you. April 1 will be my 40th birthday. A fitter, lighter me would be an awesome gift to myself. I am currently kind of laid up with my back so not much exercise going on here. However my current goals are to stay on plan (low carb), drink my water and keep my bg is check.

I can't wait to get to know everyone :)

Welcome Michelle!

So I weighed myself this morning and it said 132.6, but I did have a late dinner the night before and didn't get in my exercise so maybe the 131.6 was right??? I guess I'll keep it. Today I have to run errands then I'm going for a run/walk at the walking park down the street. I will be starting C25K again, I just need to figure out where - I don't think I need to go back to the very beginning, but maybe on week 3 or 4...

Perfect! My dad turns 80 on April 1 and we are having a HUGE party for him. I would like to be at my, used to be, normal weight. My goal is to be at 130 by the party (which is March 27)

Amy from your post above my last one it sure looks like the 131 was yours! WTG!!!

Greyedrose~ looks like a totally doable goal!!!

I weighed in this morning down 2.2 (190.2) odd as I got off plan Mon. Tom is due in 5 days and last Sun I had bounced up from 190 to 192.4 being 100% OP. Oh well I'm taking the 2.2 loss and claiming it!

ShrinkingAmy 01-13-2010 09:30 PM

Great job Michelle!

I have haven't done so well this week exercise wise... I need to get back at it - it's supposed to be nice tomorrow so I need to get out for a run. I'd like to get in 2-3 runs between now and Saturday.

thinnerbyjuly 01-14-2010 08:11 AM

good job Michelle and hope you get to run, Amy!

I'm not seeing any movement on the scale, but I'm sticking with my plan and have met my calorie, water and activity goals every day this week. So hopefully, I'll start to see that effort show on the scale soon.

Congrats on your losses thinner and shrinking! Peanut hang in there... :)

Still haven't really started my exercise program yet, but I was OP all week except for my usual "meal break" (although I stay within points for the week, even including that big meal), and am happy to report a nice steady 2 pounds down!
