SW: 150.6
GW: 145.6, which honestly would be an unusually successful month for me May 1 -- 150.6 May 2 -- 149.4 (-1.2) May 3 -- 149.2 (-0.2) May 4 -- 148.6 (-0.6) May 5 -- 149.2 (+0.6) May 6 -- 149.2 (0) May 7 -- 149.0 (-0.2) May 8 -- 148.0 (-1.0) May 9 -- 148.2 (+0.2) May 10 -- 147.4 (-0.8) May 11 -- 148.0 (+0.6) May 12 -- 147.4 (-0.6) May 13 -- 148.4 (+1.0) May 14 -- 146.6 (-1.8) May 15 -- 147.0 (+0.4) ---> -3.6 pounds halfway through the month May 16 -- 147.0 (0; -3.6 for month) Chipping away at weight is exhausting. I could bump up to the 150s in like a day of bad eating.... My family went out last night and got calories galore - pasta, pizza, french fries, burgers, sodas, alcoholic beverages. I got a salad and a side of veggies (which was great by the way) and drank water.... oh well... them's the breaks. Happy healthy weekends to us all :goodvibes: |
GOAL: 150 at the end of the month!
4 May: 153.4 5 May: 153.0 6 May: 152.4 I'll take it! :D 7 May: 152.0 We'll see if I don't bounce back up! 8 May: 152.6 I knew I would go back up... my weight bounces around a lot. Also, I totally just chowed down on pizza, a piece of chocolate mousse cake & a nice glass of wine, no guilt here! (It's my bday :hat:) 9 May: 153.2 Yikes! (but expected) 10 May: 152.2 11 May: 152.4 (-1 for the week :D) 12 May: 152.2 13 May: 152.0 14 May: 151.8 15 May: 152.0 16 May: 154.0 :mad: (my own fault!!!) 17 May: 153.4 Ok seriously, time to get my bum back into gear! I pretty much ate whatever this week, and went for 3 runs... time to get serious - the end of May will be here and I am going backward! |

For the most part I would say I was better than I usually am on the weekends... LOTS of walking, 2 hour bike ride, one 2 "cheat meals" (BBQ ribs, mac & cheese for 1 meal and then a turkey thanksgiving sandwich for another) but overall I didn't go overboard. If I can just be a little better each weekend I would call that a victory. Another positive note: 1.4 down from last Monday, so yay for that! :) Happy Monday all!!!!! |

Again - I am defying the laws of physics! How to remain exactly the same weight for four days at such a calorie deficit (I track religiously now) and fairly low carb... WITH some exercising (not enough to cause any significant water retention, just yoga and walking/VERY light jogging). This is just an observation. As my recent mantra has been "it is what it is" :goodvibes |
happy monday guys! (I'm gonna live this lie until mondays don't suck anymore lol).
I'm expecting some water weight to pile on during this week... that's after the water weight from the carbs I had this weekend go.

Feeling a bit down since this is the weight I was at the beginning of the month & I've just bounced around thus far. I'm still going for 150 as my goal for the end, but I reckon I most likely won't get it, but I'm not giving up yet. Back to tracking on MFP - 1700 kcal & 5k run in this morning. Trying to get 4 runs in a week. |

Hurt my hip again, woke up feeling flabby and gross, ambushed by early TOM... argh! We had a bit of a crazy weekend with lots of kids' activities and today I got the exciting but stressful news that my mother has a buyer for her house and will be moving out here, probably in the next 6 weeks! I'm excited to have her move here but the process is going to be stressful for her and for me. So I basically ate no meals and a steady stream of random food all day. Not awesome. Tomorrow is another day! |

Will probably start running soon, also considering light weight training but worried it will cause me to gain. Does anyone here have experience w/ weight training? if it helped you lose or gain? Have a great day all! |

Vabs, Eilidh, EmmaD, looking good, ladies! Welcome, Dani! TB, weight training shouldn't make you gain. Lots of people worry about the scale going up because they are building muscle, but women have to work very hard at an intense level to gain even a pound of muscle per month. A workout that leaves you sore may include some water retention as your muscles repair, but it's temporary. I love the look of some muscle definition in arms and shoulders especially. We do upper body work in barre class and at home I occasionally do pushups and some curls and shoulder presses with my husband's heavy dumbbells. |

SW: 150.6
GW: 145.6, which honestly would be an unusually successful month for me May 1 -- 150.6 May 2 -- 149.4 (-1.2) May 3 -- 149.2 (-0.2) May 4 -- 148.6 (-0.6) May 5 -- 149.2 (+0.6) May 6 -- 149.2 (0) May 7 -- 149.0 (-0.2) May 8 -- 148.0 (-1.0) May 9 -- 148.2 (+0.2) May 10 -- 147.4 (-0.8) May 11 -- 148.0 (+0.6) May 12 -- 147.4 (-0.6) May 13 -- 148.4 (+1.0) May 14 -- 146.6 (-1.8) May 15 -- 147.0 (+0.4) [---> -3.6 pounds halfway through the month] May 16 -- 147.0 (0) May 17 -- 147.0 (0) May 18 -- 147.0 (0) May 19 -- 146.0 (-1.0) May 20 -- 145.6 (-0.4; -5.0 pounds for the month) :yay: This was my goal weight for the month... but I think it will bounce up again before it settles at 145.X or below. It has been a successful month for lots of us! I also have been working my butt off. Crazy how much work it is to lose 5 pounds, especially when I felt like I was starting at a weight that was so high. Well, it used to be so high for me, not so much any more... :welcome2: Dani13 |
GOAL: 150 at the end of the month!
4 May: 153.4 5 May: 153.0 6 May: 152.4 I'll take it! :D 7 May: 152.0 We'll see if I don't bounce back up! 8 May: 152.6 I knew I would go back up... my weight bounces around a lot. Also, I totally just chowed down on pizza, a piece of chocolate mousse cake & a nice glass of wine, no guilt here! (It's my bday :hat:) 9 May: 153.2 Yikes! (but expected) 10 May: 152.2 11 May: 152.4 (-1 for the week :D) 12 May: 152.2 13 May: 152.0 14 May: 151.8 15 May: 152.0 16 May: 154.0 :mad: (my own fault!!!) 17 May: 153.4 18 May: 153.4 (+1 for the week :mad:) 19 May: 152.8 20 May: 151.4 <--- lowest of the month! Finally the scale is cooperating! Totally exhausted, though - TOM will be here tomorrow most likely. |
Thesame7 - If your hip is anything like mine, it doesnt hurt to bike. low impact. So, if you have that option at a gym, I would suggest doing that if you are going to do anything this week. And I'd say stretch and ice as much as you can, even if it doesnt hurt, to just make sure it heals.
Now I need to go take my own advice :) |
