Hello! Welcome to all the new people! Thanks for joining our thread!
I have been doing quite nicely the last few days. I feel like I LOOK a little thinner, which is strange because its TOM. But i'll take it! I hopped on a scale last night at a friends house. Bad idea! It said i was 6 pounds heavier than 2 weeks ago at the doctors. That is IMPOSSIBLE. I decided to forget what I saw and not think about it. It really is best to have one scale to chart progress with because everyone is a little different.

I hope everyone else is doing well!
Your weight can fluctuate up to 3 pounds throughout the day. I wouldnt worry too much about it!
maenad, I cannot get on my scale at night. I can go up about 10 lbs with all the water I drink. Best to weigh at the same time of day on your own scale. Forget what happened on the scale and get back to feeling thin.
I love this challenge. Thank you. I'm back to my healthy eating habits, and I feel great! Plus I feel thinner, too.
Congratulations Tyla! I remember when I got to the 120s--much rejoicing!
My anxiety over running is steadily decreasing--it only took me about 15 minutes today to make myself get out the door. Maybe that's pathetic, but that's far less than it has been other times. And the fight wasn't as fierce this time--I knew I wanted to go run (it's a GORGEOUS day here) and I DID IT! I took it slower today because I'm sore from really going for it on the elliptical Wednesday, but I still ran it at least under 9 min./mile (for 3.1 miles).
Just one more round on the elliptical tomorrow and that will be week #2 of totally sticking to my exercise plan! Wahoooo!
Great work! I am struggling to stay motivated to run now that it's gotten colder. There is a sandstorm going on and the neighbors are always burning garbage, so I tell myself "you don't need to run, you can just do Tae Bo indoors and keep your lungs safe." But we all know that exercise videos and running are totally different, and doing a variety of exercises is good for you. Hoping today is the day I get back on the pavement. I suppose I should wait for the hangover to subside first though...
I'm pretty well on track to meet my goal. I may change it yet again depending on what I weigh a week from today. I am between 126.5-127.0 now.
I did it! Two whole weeks on plan for exercise! Wahooooooo!
Congrats!!!! Thats awesome! I need to make a similar goal. I really get lazy on the exercise side of things. I really wish I could stick with running 3 miles 6 days a week! Life just gets in the way
Whoa, 3 miles 6x a week? I could never meet an exercise goal like that one--my desire to exercise would just tank.
I need to get on the elliptical today--they had salmon patties at lunch today, and I ate 3 plus I had cottage cheese with my fruit and baby carrots. So it's looking like I'm having an egg white omelet for dinner.
Oneoftwelve, thank you for the congrats. You're right, I'm still rejoicing. Actually, I'm in shock and have difficulty believing I really am at 129.2. I have been counting my cals, exercising and drinking my water. But it's taken me so long to get here, that I'm in shock.
Congrats to you for completing 3.1 miles in 9 minutes. That's awesome and amazing!! And congrats for sticking to your exercise plan!
Dianne, thank you so much! I love your goals! Wow, 128 by Thanksgiving would be awesome. Best of luck to you on achieving your goals and congrats on your success! Are you on any particular food plan? Or exercise plan?
