    Lost 1 lb this week. I was aiming to lose 2 lb this week but i had a huge and scrumptious slow roasted shoulder of lamb with roast potatoes cooked in lamb fat :S which was nearly 1000 cals when my daily allowance is about 1200! I'll try to do better next week :smile:

    No change from last week, but I was really bad over the weekend so I should be happy that I didn't gain. This is a new week! Going to refocus and hope for a better weigh-in next week!

    Total loss so far: 5.5

    Thanks!! this week I'm eating a slow cooker tex-mex chicken meal over rice. Plenty of protein in the beans and chicken and tastes so good! Last week was a spinach lasagna roll for lunch all week. I'll probably do salads next week... Or soups because it's so cold here!

    I was down, then way up this week (like 2 or 3 lbs after Saturday) because of a holiday party that consisted of unlimited drinks. I ran 2.5 miles before the party and walked an additional mile at the mall trying to burn calories in advance. The fact that I'm a little lower than I was last week is encouraging and likely due to my delicious Tex-Mex chicken lunches and tomato soup dinners for the week!


    Does anyone have any recommendations for low-calorie (500 and under) and low-fat (20g or under) make ahead meals for lunches or dinners? I'm starting to repeat some of my meals which only leads to me food-cheating when I get tired of eating the same thing every day.


    Keep up the great work everyone!

    01/15: 151.2... I caved to my favorite Mexican restaurant last night or this would have been lower like it was yesterday :\
    01/22: 150.8… not much loss, but considering I had a holiday party on Saturday that lasted until 3am, and the mid week snow storm that prevented my run, I’m totally okay with this progress :)

    I like making salad with grilled chicken on it and since I'm TRULY a thing of laziness, I get the Fresh Express salad (either Farmer's greens or American) and the pre-cooked chicken and then toss it together with a bit of 1000 Island dressing. Nom Nom! (lunch).

    Allrecipes.com as some great low calorie meals and just great meals that *happen* to be low calorie. There's more there than I could list, but you could check it out :)

    So my weigh in isn't as promising as I had hoped. Only lost .2 lbs. But considering my weight ballooned up a bit after last weigh in, I think I lost more.
    I know it's only a few weeks in, but I'm feeling frustrated I'm not losing more. I'm counting calories like crazy, working out almost every day, on top of walking at least a couple miles every week day. I know things will work out, just a bit frustrated right now.

    I know exactly how you feel. I gained a lot and lost it all to net almost 0 over the last week, but I feel better. It's hard to explain, but I just don't feel as groggy as I did before I started focusing on this challenge.

    I hope you can push off the frustration and keep going!! Good luck this week!

    Lost 7 pounds so far, have updated my profile pic as promised and put the side view comparion in my photos as well, but there is a definite difference already. I encourage you to take your pics weekly....the body may start to change before the scale jumps, and then you will still be smiling!

    Great job everybody....to those still losing-awesome way to go, to those holding steady this week that's great-maintaining your loss and getting healthier is a win anyday, and to those that saw a gain hang in there....this is a marathon not a sprint so stick with it and don't give up! Happy Friday, see you all next week with more numbers and new pictures :smile:

    Jan. 9 - 146.4 lbs
    Jan. 17 - 145.8 lbs
    Jan. 24 - 143.4 lbs

    This 2.4 lb weight loss kinda scares me into thinking I might gain this next week. Who knows, maybe I'm just finally getting it! I've been really consistent with my C25K and doing very well with my calorie intake and logging everything I eat. Looks like it's working! :) - Total weight loss this challenge - 6.6 lbs.
