I'm going to adjust my goal for a couple of reasons. The first is that my March 1st weigh in was after an evening out with good food and good drinks so the number is a bit inflated to begin with. Also, Last night was night one of a 6 week boot camp that i've joined and I expect more of myself this month, so my expectation should be represented in my goal.
Gardenerjoy, can I please ask you to update my goal to 8 lbs for march? Thanks a million for all your work to track this thread!
Starting weight: 150.7
Goal weight: 142.7 (-8)
Mar 1: 150.7
Mar 2: 151.0 +.3
Mar 3: 150.1 -.9
Mar 4: 148.3 -1.8
3/3 201 lbs
3/4 202.6 lbs (could be the weekend catching up?)
3/5 201.8 lbs (my actual weekly weigh in.. up from 201)
Frustrating!!! Working my buns off, and try to be "normal" for the weekend and end up with no loss. I would hate to think every day of the rest of my life would be having to count calories and make sure I exercise no matter how exhausted I am already... sigh
Just had to say that out loud!
Thanks for all the congrats everyone. You guys are so supportive!! I usually wait to have three days in a row below a goal before calling it. So one more day. Not sure whats up with the .4s lol.
SW (Feb 28) 141.6
GW: 137.6
March 1: 141.4
March 2: 141.4
March 3: 140.4
March 4: 139.4
March 5: 139.4
Well, that's more like it! Guess yesterday was just a fluke.
tinajayne72 - I used to think the same way, but I've kind of come to grips with the fact that if I want to stay at a reasonable weight, I'm going to have to pay attention to my calories probably forever. As far as exercise goes, I find that it's a lot less of a chore if you find something that you really like (dance, or kickboxing, or yoga, or whatever), not just something you have to do.
