I wonder how it is accurate there though when its not near my feet... haha :) thanks!


EDIT:
Do you have a link to the one you have.. I looked at walmart and saw about 5 different ones

Here's a link to the pedometer, but it's listed as $19.97 now.

Hope you can find it!

I finally broke through! Down to 188! Not sure what I did differently, other than not eating a big dinner like I usually do. I eat a little in the morning, then a little more at lunch, and then a big dinner. That's how I've always done it (learned it from my mother I guess). Guess maybe I'll need to reverse it and see how that goes. Thanks for all the supportive messages!

Sigh, I have had a couple ridiculously stressful weeks, as well as being in my time of the month, which means I have ballooned :( On the other hand, I have now gotten an appointment with a nutritionist for this coming Wednesday, so I can get a diet according to my needs :3 I will be updating my new objective and weight on Wednesday, after my appointment.

Two weeks in and I'm down 3.2 pounds. It doesn't look like I'll be making goal this month, but I'm fine with that as I'm working on more strength training right now. I'm still keeping my goal at 10 pounds to keep me motivated though.

immaculate - No worries if you don't make your goal this month (although, we are still two weeks away from the finish line) - you lost 3.2 pounds! That's great! :)

bethann - I've been catching up on your frustrations, and think that you should talk to your doctor, just to rule it out. I found out that I have a thyroid problem a few years back. They are still fiddling with adjusting my medication, because they can't believe how low it is! There are a number of medical causes for difficulty losing weight - it's worth checking into.

Alright, Tuesday weigh-in day for me. I did much better this week, but am still way behind. I think I'm finally seeing my weight loss slow down. Can't complain after 5 good months.

Hang in there @changergirl & @immaculate!!!

Welp, I have actually put on weight since I started the challenge :( I had my first appointment with the nutritionist today, and had my weight set at 106.6. So, considering we are halfway to April ending, I will re-set my objective to 2 kilos by the end of April.

Hey, things happen! Just get back on the wagon-- sometimes we do add some weight in the small picture of a week or two, but the more important thing is the bigger picture of the general downward pattern! So. Keep at it! We all experience these things!
As for me, I went through a kind of oopsy a few days ago. I'm happy to report that my time of the month has since ended, and I've been running the last two days AND back on the wagon food-wise (I had a delicious HIGH FAT icecream shake... so good, but threw me off). And an exciting announcement, at least for me....
DUN DUH DUHHH! I've made my second mini-goal today! Well, given that my first one was to 'just lose ANY weight.' So really, it's my first real mini-goal?? Either way, it feels good, I feel healthy, and, though there's been some bumps along the way, I've gotten back on track relatively well. Finally! I have to tell you guys, I honestly thought there was something wrong with me-- that I could never lose weight. I thought about going to the doctor and asking wtf my problem was, but I was too embarrassed. I've never been severely overweight, but I just didn't understand why or how my body seemed to 'want to be' the size it was. I was totally baffled and frustrated and sad. BUT! Since changing my whole lifestyle, becoming more positive and confident about myself, exercising daily... I just feel like a new me already, and the process is only going to continue! I joined 3FC after losing a few pounds, but you all really have been so great and supportive. Getting your support and comments helps just as much as giving them back. Overall, this place is great, and today is so exciting for me! Keep it up, all you sexy thangs! Work it!
