Last week I had no progress. I actually gained 2 pounds, but that is alright. Just 2 more pounds i have to lose before christmas. But i've been doing really good this week. Yestersday i did 1.75 miles on the treadmill and 2 miles on the elliptical. and today i did 2 miles on each. Wow i am on fire. I am trying to see some results this week. Well good luck again Challengers!!!!
I am keeping a journal of what I eat, how many cals and fat grams, and a work out journal. I was just going over my journals and I actually am doing better than last week so far. Last wk. I did 3 miles on the treadmill and 7 miles on the bike. But I was on my period so that is my excuss. So far this week I have done amost 3 miles on the treadmill and 6.55 miles on the bike and it is only tuesday. I can do alot in 5 more days. I feel better after looking over everything I have done. If you are not keeping a journal you should start.
Welcome all the new comers.

I go back and read it frequently to get motivated.

Thanks!! I will add that to my favourites!!
My monday weigh in puts me at 213lbs - that's down from 220lbs - 7lbs lost!!!!!!!!!!
Only 18lbs for the challenge!!!
Hey y'all. I would love to join this challenge. I have already lost 17 lbs and would love to match that by Christmas. That would put me just under goal weight. Mini goal is 5 lbs by my birthday which is 13th OCT. I haven't been that light for 10 years, but also haven't been 154 for 3 so am very happy.
Hi everyone!
I'm finally starting to feel better. I was sick for 10 DAYS!!! My eating was okay, not too bad but not perfect. Dinner was the worse, because I sure didn't feel like cooking and hubby, well....you know! So it was Burger King one night and Pizza the next. But I did stay in control. I jumped on the scale this morning and I did remain the same. So I'm happy 'bout that. Tonight I might take a bike ride with my daughter or go for a walk, just to get back in the swing of things. I'm still not feeling 100%, but I do feel better then laying in bed coughing up a lung. At least I can say I got in my ab workouts from coughing and blowing my nose!
My weigh in day is Saturday morning so I still have a few days left!
Location: On the road in our travel trailer! Ask me sometime!

Evening everyone! I had to work all day today and didn't have time for a trip to the gym. I'm bummed out because I feel like I'm already failing. I can't even make my second day to the gym But, I don't work as much tomorrow and will be able to make it there while they are open. I'm going to compensate for not making it by doing Pilates at home sometime tonight.
I am working in my sisters' restaurant right now to help her out and the temptation to eat fatty, greasy food is killing me! It doesn't help that her food is really good either! So I'm compromising by having her really excellant salads for lunch and half a regular serving meal for supper. But I really should pack a lunch to take with me I guess.
But no change for me today. I get my measurements taken at the gym tomorrow. It will be interesting to see if there is any change from the ones I took myself about a month ago.
Anyhow, hope everyone is doing well and is staying on track!
Haven't done too well the last few days.thursday took the kids to Burger King for lunch, then for dinner a friend brought her 3 kids and asked if I wanted to come to mcDonalds for dinner with them
I only had a salad at McDonalds, but I DID have a few nuggets
then last night my 4 year old started throwing up, and didn't stop until 6am this morning. he still isn't well and keeps crying with tummy aches.... poor baby . If i got an hours sleep last night, I would have been lucky
Will be back on track soon...... if I don't get sick.....
Hi everyone I am new to the forum. Actually I decided last week to enter my personal Christmas Challenge 2004 and was so happy to find this site. I visited other sites but they did not seem as friendly and supportive as this one. Just this week when I decided to start this diet my niece came to sleep at ou house since her parents were abroad. AAAHh suddenly the fridge and every cupbard were filled in with different assortments of sweets and chocolate. god i tried my best to avoid thetemptation and well guess i succeeded. wow it was tough i admit. thank god her parents are returning this afternoon and will deliver her back together with all the fancy things my mum bought her.
talking about my diet by Xmas 2004 I hope to reach my target weight of 52 kgs.
I currently weigh 58kgs. I think that roughly there are still 12 weeks to go to Christmas so well I hope I am not setting my targets too high. my downfall is wine aahh.
Hi all. yesterday I walked 3.91 miles, someone was waiting for the treadmill or I would have done 4, But I had already walked 62 min. so I went a head and got off for her. I felt awesome. I have been doing so good w/ my diet and pretty good w/ my exercising and I have not lost any weight or inches. Any day now I should start shedding weight!!!
Welcome all newbes. Good luck everyone. LIFE IS NOT ABOUT FINDING YOURSELF

Well finally some success. I think I really did good this week. I went to the gym on mon, tues, thurs, and friday. Whoa that is four days, in one week. I don't think i have ever done that. I usually would have quit by now. But i am glad to report that i have lose 3 pounds ( gone forever hopefully) My eating habits have improved slightly. I am going to the grocery store sometime next week and i will be able to pick up some healthier food choices. How is everyone else doing, great i hope.
Yeah, Miss McCoy!!! Of course those 3 lbs. are gone forever. Good for you. Any one else w/ some sucsess? I can't even tell if all this work and eating right has done any good...I don't have a scale. And the only clothes I have are warm-ups and my husbands t-shirts, so I can't necessarily go by how my clothes are fitting either. All I can say is it surely has to be doing me good. I just can't wait to see some results. LIFE IS NOT ABOUT FINDING YOURSELF

Hi everyone!
Good for you for Miss McCoy!! As you know, I was sick ALL LAST WEEK! I did not workout at all. But I did maintain this morning, so I 'm happy I didn't gain. Full steam ahead for this week. My mini goal this week is to loose 2 pounds, at least, if not 3.
Don't worry Michelle, you will see results soon. Just keep plugin' along and you will soon see a difference! Of course eating right is doing you good, it's happening from the inside out, so keep that in mind! Do you have a measuring tape? That would help you so much.
Keep eating clean and working out and we will all have the weightloss pride by Christmas!
No progress

But, I don't work as much tomorrow and will be able to make it there while they are open. I'm going to compensate for not making it by doing Pilates at home sometime tonight.
