Thank you for your response on my thread. I posted previously on this board but was not sure how active it was. Anyway nice to meet you all.
My goal is to lose 10 lbs by June 1 and 17 by July 4-
I figured it out to 1.25 lbs per week to do it.
I will do light toning
and eat properly 3 meals and 2 snacks a day.
I will also be drinking 96 plus ounces of water a day.
Welcome! Welcome! to all the new chicks and all the old chicks!!!
I know we will do just as good as we did on our April1st goal.....We lost over 300lbs as a group and I know We can do this again....So Wake Up Ladies!!! Get your butts Up and Start Moveing!!!!!!!!!!
How long did it take for the group to lose over 300lbs? That is amazing.
I just did my toning I will do it again later. I can't do aerobics as I have an ankle on the mend but I can't wait til I can get back to that too.
I weigh in on Mondays when do you all weigh in ?
Love and Light
Nikki
You may want to bring that number up. If you keep your cals that may slow your weight loss down....I try to get 1200 to 1500 a day....I was keeping mine low and I could not lose anything. When I added some cals I lost 4lbs the first week.
Good Morning everyone! Ugh. I feel icky today. We splurged last night and went to a Seafood place for dinner. I had crab, coconut shrimp and a few fried shrimp. Ive been working my butt off so I deserve to have something yummy once a while. But now my tummy is really upset. UGH. Im SOOOO not used to eating fried foods, I guess thats good I feel icky lol. And to top that off, I cant sleep. I just lay in my bed allllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll night. Its really starting to bug me. Ill get like 2-3 hours a night and when I get up and get my kids up, im grumpy and I hate being like that with them. I dont know what to do. Its been happening all week and its driving me nuts!!
purplecrush, i sure wish i knew what to tell you. i have that problem sometimes. i woke up at 5am this morning and could not go back to sleep.
well, i am sooo happy to report my goal is off and running. i could not believe it when i stepped on the scale and it said another half pound down. i won't change my ticker until this weekend when it is a whole pound and i've seen it two days in a row, but that is amazing. and before you ask, the only thing i think of that i am doing is adding some coffee to my morning. i don't normally like coffee, and it kind of makes me have to go to the bathroom...and not to pee...if you get my drift. maybe i am just cleaning out my intestines. hahaha. but hey, i'll take a weight loss any way i can get it...right???!!!!
anyways, this is so exciting for me because i have been losing just one pound a week up until this past two weeks when it is coming off 2 a week.!!! i think i can pass my goal if it keeps going like this!!! i hope so. i just hope to move down a size soon though.
I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who has mentioned getting a fitday account. What a great site! Even though I don't especially like keeping a food journal, it really helps me be more aware of portion sizes and how many calories I'm eating (1700 yesterday...I probably need to cut that down a bit).
Also...I wanted to say that I'm so happy to have found this challenge! It's really helping me get on track with my weight loss. Instead of talking about wanting to lose weight, I'm actually doing something about it now! Thanks!!
I had the same problem with eating to little about 1100 a day now Im up at 1400-1600 a day, and noticed the weight was starting to come off more quickly again. Now my only problem is fat intake 33% of my calories right now its supposed to be at like 20%.
Hmmm I guess I should opt for Lasagna for dinner instead of salad that will up my calories for sure. right now it is 2:30 and I have only had 500 calories. Maybe I need to up them or up them then go down again to see more weight loss.
its supposed to be at like 20%.
