Hi Happening, the Biggest Loser challenge on 3FC is structured slightly differently than the TV show. We begin the challenge on the 15th of this month and go til sometime in December (when the show ends). You sign up on this thread (http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/bigg...up-thread.html) with your starting weight. You will be assigned to either a blue team or a red team. At the end of the season (Dec-ish), the team with the most lbs lost wins! No prizes, unfortch.

Hello everyone else! I must join in on the bad day today. I've not been feeling too well, so I would sway between voraciously hungry and no appetite whatsoever.

Rundown:

Breffix - 1 cup skim milk + 1 tbsp cocoa powder + 1 burfi

Lunch - 1 Healthy Choice Steamer, 1 bag 100 cals popcorn, 2 bananas, 1 burfi, 2 slices of whole wheat bread with chickpea curry *le sigh*

Snack - 1/4 cup raisins, 1/2 small can of olives (about 15 - 20 olives)

Dinner - 2 cups homemade fried rice. It was mostly veggies with 1 cup of cooked white rice.

Total cals: 2169. Gosh that's a lot of food. Boo.

Off to play tennis in a few minutes. That might cancel out some of my calorie overload from today...

Thanks! Just signed up!

I got up late went to URM, after that I went to the bank and bought some more fresh fruit and veggies, and because I was hunger I bought that crap. I should never go to the grocery store hungry!

Yep, day one for probably the 10th time. Never quit quitting

Yesterday I had:

coffee with creamer
small apple

chili mac with cheese
cole slaw
milk

water
coffee

sandwich with ham salad
amish baked beans
carrots, no dip
water

I was able to stay on plan with small portions, lunch at work was not very healthy. I exercised for about 15 minutes.

Hey guys...

crappy day today. I weighed in this AM and gained 3 lbs overnight?!!?! How does that happen? So discouraging.

140.2

I think we're all on under some kind of weird anti-weight loss spell.

I have the stomach flu. I got it this AM at 4. Mmm hmmm. I've been in and out of the bathroom since. I'm trying to remember what I ate that gave it to me. Everything I ate yesterday was homemade and it didn't bother my hubby so we're both confused. I'm feeling better but all I've had today is 4 slices of whole wheat bread with butter scraped on it. Blah. I can't believe I was so healthy yesterday and today I'm in a shambles.

I don't know what I'm eating for lunch and if I'm eating anything because I'm definitely not in the mood to cook.

Hope everyone else is doing ok! Sorry to hear about your weight gain, happening. You can't gain 3 lbs of fat overnight, unless you ingested 10,500 extra calories yesterday (3500*3). It's probably water weight. Did you eat some salty (chips, pretzels, restaurant food)? Did you exercise more so than usual or did you do exercise after say 3-4 days or more of not exercising? I've found that I gain weight with either of these situations. Don't worry, get back on plan and it will come off in no time.

Good luck today, DogMomNP!

Ugh, Cape - you and me both, sista! I feel like crap too. Hope we both feel better soon!

I could not eat anything raw or fresh today because I am having an endoscopy and colonoscopy on Friday and had to restrict my diet. Tomorrow I will be fasting all day so I don't feel so bad that I went over my daily plan by a few hundred.

Feeling carpy but Iam pushing through.
