Hi everyone! SW: 184 GW: 179 (-5 pounds) 01: 184 |
First day of August. Great to see you here. It's raining outside, so I worked out with my zumba video inside. The stretches helped my neck pain so much.

Not much to report on yesterday! Had a bad mental health day, meaning I just felt really drained/unfocused so I didn't get much work done. I have yet to make an appointment with a psychiatrist, purely because our insurance is barely accepted anywhere. I'm sad that the medical/insurance system here is so broken. The UK was only slightly better and while Japan's system was the best I've experienced they don't know how to deal with mental health over there yet. Also, the fact that I had a slight inflammation in my gums and thought about buying a ticket back to the UK to get it checked (because I don't have dental insurance) is sickening! Luckily a salt water rinse seemed to do a world of wonders. Anyway, enough serious talk :lol:
I was super proud of myself for resisting the urge to snack at night. I felt really hungry, but I knew that it was far too late to eat + I had already eaten enough in the day so I said NO! JUST GO TO BED! It worked :D. I'm also coming onto my period (possibly another reason I had an unproductive day yesterday) so I'm happy that my weight seems to be flittering around 184 lbs and nothing higher than 185 lbs. So far! Today I'm gonna workout and keep on trying my best for the month ahead! Starting Weight: 185.3 lbs Week One 01: 184.8 lbs 02: 03: 04: 05: ---------------------------------- Avg Weight for Week One: 184.8 lbs Total Loss for Week One: 0.5 lbs

boatingmommy - I'm gonna assume you meant 184.1 not 841.1 lbs :lol: Congrats on the loss already, a great start! And thanks! |
Good day everyone
I'm back this month. I have been doing research on healthy eating, and why your not losing weight, eat this and not this kinds of things and it's very confusing. One site says if you want to lose weight eat x,y,z and the next site says if you're not losing it's because you're eating x,y,z which is what the other site said eat! ugggg! I'm going to stick with the 5:2 and eat what I'm used to and back off the fried food. I'm going back home for a week mid Sept and I would like to lose some weight before I leave. My big problem is not the eating part but the drinking. We go to the beach to watch bands a lot and so I always end up having more that I should with my friends. I try not to have anything before 4:30 and have a water between, but when I do the calorie counter I'm always surprised by the total. My demon to tackle along with the weight. I'm working on it. When we were in our last country I was able to get down to 147 so I know I can do it. We just didn't socialize as much as we do here. I just need to socialize differently. CW: 155 GW: 150 Good luck everyone |
:welcome2: to the new faces, and welcome back to the vets. :wave:
SW: 138.6 CW: 138.2 GW: 136.1 I went clothes shopping today and actually got a few items that I really like! I don't usually have the patience to try on many things, but today I made myself, and it paid off. :) |
gardenerjoy: I forgot to thank you again for getting another month's thread up and running for us in my initial post, so THANK YOU! :hug:
boatingmommy: How exciting! I've never been to Disney, but I think I'd be just as excited as the kids would be to go for the first time, haha. I hope you're able to make some great progress before your trip! :crossed: Chunkah: Best of luck with your move next week!! We just did a big move last summer, and I know it can be tough on the routine. :goodluck: And, yay to finding some new clothes that you like! :yay: Riestrella: I love the idea of your upcoming trip! I was able to successfully surprise my best friend ONE time with an unannounced trip back home...I was even talking to her on the phone as I pulled up in her driveway, telling her that my mom was coming by to pick something up. (She was still living in our hometown at the time and they know each other well, so it wasn't odd or suspicious.) The look on her face when she realized it was me instead of my mom was PRICELESS. It was one of the best days ever, and she was thrilled. I hope that your trip to see your friend goes just as well! :) Also, the concept of that play you went to sounds both hilarious and like a lot of fun, as well...I wish we had something like that around here! (P.S. Good job avoiding your own Snacknarok -- it's tricky sometimes! :lol:) To everyone else, both regulars and newcomers alike, I'm glad to see you all joining in for August!! :wave: ----------------------------------------- Back up a bit to 169.2...however, with the first day of TOM showing up, I guess that isn't very surprising. I was also a little low on the water yesterday, so going to focus on that to combat the bloating today. After I finish my coffee, of course...lol. :lol: I hope you all have a great day today! Week One 01: 169.2 - (tom) 02: 03: 04: 05: 06: 07: ---------------------------- Total Loss for Week One: |
Hello boatingmommy - yes we have been in monthly weight loss challenges before - glad to see you again!
Also with OpheliaPhoenix; glad to see you again! Thank you gardnerjoy for always hosting this thread. I recently started a new diet and walking everyday, trying to prepare for going to an adult fitness camp in Tennessee for 3 weeks; the last 3 weeks of August. I look forward to going - I have never before been to an adult fitness camp. Well Parris Island but that was over 30 years ago. |
So far so good. The kids start school on Monday - it's hard to believe the "summer" is over (especially when it's still so hot out.) I will have two in middle school. They are both starting to act stressed out already. Hopefully it will settle down when we get into a routine. Life is easier in the summer.
Chunk - good luck with the move and new job. That's exciting and stressful! Hope everyone else is doing well! Goal - 4 lbs SW: 144.0 GW: 140.0 Week One 01: 144.0 02: 143.8 03: 04: 05: 06: 07: ---------------------------- Total Loss for Week One: |
Good morning everyone! Hope everyone is having a great day! I am on the run, but have planned healthy lunch and dinner. Breakfast was a hard boiled egg, low sodium V8 and cottage cheese. I used to hate cottage cheese, but I'm loving it lately. ...Gotta go! ]
August Goal: 6 pounds Start Weight: 185.6 Week One 01: 184.1 02: 185.3 UGH!!! Stupid me felt that pizza and a couple of chicken wings was acceptable for dinner last night! Paying today!:mad: 03: 04: 05: 06: 07: ---------------------------- Total Loss for Week One: |
New low today. I'm now officially 25 pounds down! :D
SW: 138.6 CW: 137.6 GW: 136.1 Ophelia and nicoley, thank you for the well wishes! :) A big move last year must've been tough with kids in tow, ophelia! My move has training wheels. It's more like a long trip bc I'll be keeping most of my stuff at my current place and possibly returning here during most school breaks. Good luck to your kids in middle school this year, nicoley. Those last days of summer were so mournful as a kid! Darius, that camp sounds fun. Walking is a great choice for fitness and weight loss. :wave: for all! |
Good morning everyone. I am in full sugar withdrawal and the headaches are not fun but it makes me really think about how unhealthy and addictive it is to cause this reaction. I am sticking to fruits and sugar free jello, pudding and popsicles when I was something sweet but no candy. Off to a great start though with the loss though
Week One 01: 278.0 02: 276.8 03: 04: 05: 06: 07: ---------------------------- Total Loss for Week One: |
Always nice to start the month with a loss.
August goal: -1 kg (reach 99.4 kgs) 1: 100.4 kgs 2: 100.15 |
Yesterday was ok! I worked out, but I did start wavering towards the end before doing by best to finish strong. Glad that I didn't stop the video altogether, because I was so close to doing that! I had a lot of small snacks throughout the day unfortunately, I'd like to work on making those snacks be healthier. We even have carrots and hummus in the fridge, yet I went straight for the chips. BUT! Despite my small slips I weighed 184.6 lbs this morning, so I'm happy with that.
Looks like the weather here in Atlanta is gonna be stormy for the next week or so unless the forecast changes. Even though I know the summers here can be rainy it always takes me by surprise! Starting Weight: 185.3 lbs Week One 01: 184.8 lbs 02: 184.6 lbs 03: 04: 05: ---------------------------------- Avg Weight for Week One: 184.7 lbs Total Loss for Week One: 0.6 lbs

Chunk - So happy you found new clothes you like! It's been a while since I've had that feeling! Can't wait to earn it back :D. ophelia - That's so cute you got to surprise her! I'm so excited to see the look on her face, it's going to be amazing. She cries when she's happy so I have a feeling she's gonna burst into tears :lol: It's gonna be a great few days. |
Week One
01: 230.2 02: 230.6 03: 04: 05: 06: 07: ---------------------------- Total Loss for Week One: Not really surprised to be up today. The last 4 days have been a pretty big whoosh, and some rebound off that isn't unexpected. Plus, I don't lose weight during this heavier work schedule time typically anyway. Plus, I was starving last night after my walk, which I never am, so I had a yogurt before bed, because I wasn't going to be able to sleep with my stomach making that much noise. But then I didn't sleep very well anyway. I think I must have still been hungry, because I dreamed about going to a restaurant and waiting hours for them to take my order, and then hours more for them to bring my food. By the time they brought dinner, it was almost time for breakfast. Weird dream. Sorry, I don't really have the energy to do personals today, but I am reading and enjoying everyone's posts. |
