  • Frustrating start to my weightloss journey this month. My TOM has been very unkind and accompanied by cramps and bad headaches. I have stayed on course with my water, which is a challenge for me. My eating (85% great, 5% so so, 10% bad) has been ok considering a holiday weekend and TOM. Looking forward to more intense workouts and cleaner eating these next 3 weeks. I'm also thinking about weighing and recording everyday to keep my mindset more focused. I know with the intense workouts my weight will go up initially, but hopefully it will reward me with a nice whoosh later this month.
    July 1st- (official start) 178
    July 8- 178 (TOM)
    July 9- 177 (-1)

    Cincorn, I love beer. Not to get intoxicated, just really love a good craft beer. I'm trying to stay away from alcohol this month. I rarely drink soda or juice and I'm taking a break from coffee. I would like to start making home brewed unsweetened tea daily and drink that with my water. Anyway, if you are anything like me your "beer 1lb" should disappear in a day or two

    Tuscany, you may be bored with seeing the same number the last couple of days but a 3lb loss in your first week is FABULOUS! Great job!

    Turtle, 3lbs overnight?!?! I need to start eating more s'mores!!! Wahoo!

    Superheroteacher, I hope you hit that goal before vacation!

    Have a great day everyone!
  • A little cheat last night...I think TOM is on the horizon, it wasn't as bad of a cheat as it could have been so up and moving forward!

    Good morning ladies! Hope you have a wonderful day!

    Smores... the answer to all of life's problems.
    One more day of under 176.7 and I'm gonna call my first mini goal!!!

    I'm gonna start working out again today with at least a 30 min walk. I haven't since last Wednesday, and it'll make me retain water... but I guess I'd rather be healthy... right? hmmm

  • Quote: Junebug37 - Congrats on the 53+ inches lost! That is outstanding!!!

    Cincorn - I'm sure its just water and will be off once the travel-lag wears off.

    Lene1974 - I hope you are feeling better! Congrats on the loss!

    Minoja75 - Great attitude!

    Turtle11 - Maybe I need to hear more about this smore diet! Great job!!!

    Jm474 - LOL - I think the whoosh fairy is different for everyone. To me and my normal slow losing, anything over 2 lbs is a whoosh. I also associate whooshing with water and if I lose what I "think" may be water weight, I feel like the Whoosh Fairy has visited me. Congrats on the 3.2 lbs! Looks like you may have gotten a visit yourself.

    SuperHeroTeacher - You are doing fabulous!

    Tuscany - Great downward trend!

    Y'all are rocking this thing!
    Yes, I do believe I did! lol

    Great day with good food choices and exercise. Went out to dinner with the family and ordered salmon and rejected dessert even when everyone else enjoyed. This morning did c25k week 5/day 3 which requires you to run 20 minutes straight. I haven't been a "runner" in years so it was exciting to go the distance today
    Also, I got my 72ozs of water in again today. If only I could do this everyday I'd look like this >>>>> hot stuff!!!
