Day 6
Yesterday wasn't such a great day - I was hungry (really hungry not just bored and wanting to snack) so I ate over my calorie limit. Not the end of the world. Back on track today. Did a Reformer class this morning and decided to make roasted vegetables for dinner tonight. Will have salmon or turkey as well. On track for today. Am really hoping for a loss to record on Monday.0 -
Weighed in today and lost 2 lbs! Also did my two week measurements and have lost 1" in my chest, .5" in my waist and hips! Such an awesome feeling! Hard workout today and ate well. Ready for my 2 large glasses of wine that I've saved up for. It's Saturday night!! Have a great evening all.0

Day 6 went well for me. Got myself up early and worked out, 60 mins of cardio and some plyometrics/weights. It helps that I have a friend that gets up early too - we work out together and I know if I don't go then she'll be by herself. Ate just at my limit, so was happy with that
Today is going well so far, but its still early. Got up early again and worked out - so far so good

I am a little behind on checking in... been really busy painting the downstairs. At least all the activity keeps me from eating. Have not seen any pounds disappear yet, seem to be in a plateau.0

I haven't checked in this week yet. I guess Sunday will be my day. So far my weight has gone up and down 3 lbs this week. I've been staying within my calorie count. I had a stressful long day at work Friday. Almost 10 hour day. I work at the musuem so I stand a lot. I was lazy at the beginning of the week my grand pa was dieing so I was depressed. I managed to get a work out in on Tuesday before the end of the night. I am also doing a hoop challenge 30 days for 30 minutes in April. Today is day 12, I managed to do every day. I also was happy that I made baked spicy cauliflower last night. It's one of my goals to eat more vegetables. I need to get back on the strength train band wagon. I had to much stuff going on so I wasn't as consistent this week. I will start again today. Good luck everyone this week.0

Day 7
Happy to report that I'm down 2 lbs! Also, noticed that the area around my knees is less fatty and there are now small (very small) muscles visible in my upper arms. Of course that's not the result of a 2lbs weight loss, but about 6 months of yoga.0 -
I skipped actual workouts for a couple days in a row, so that probably set me back a bit. However, Friday was skipped because I worked all day, got home and HAD to change my brakes...they were BAD! Then, when I finished that, I had to start the BBQ and make dinner. All this by myself. The kids and not so dear boyfriend stayed inside playing video games! Then, Saturday's workout was skipped because I went to Springfield to get me a fitted pair of running shoes, and have a girl's day with my ex's mom. Yeah, I know that's weird, but she's one of my best friends. Anyways, we spent about 4 1/2 - 5 hours walking around the mall and shopping. I guess that counts for something.
Still managed to stay under my calorie goals though, so hopefully I'll have a nice loss for the week when I weigh in tomorrow.0 -
Day 7 went to the gym! Makes 2 days this week! Sad part is I got in the scale at the Gym and it said 12 pounds more than my scale at HOME! I know not all sales will tell you the same but hey not all the weight I have lost so far (or that my scale at home says I've lost). But I'm still working on hitting my calorie goal and eating light for dinner tonight.0

Feeling pretty good about finishing this week off. I went over my calorie limit Friday night because I went out to eat, but I was able to control myself and only eat a tiny bit of the appetizer and dessert, and half my entree. I've been doing great this weekend, eating healthy and pretty active. My husband and I took the dog for a 3 mile walk in the park today, and I'm feeling physically and mentally good. I've been pretty steadily losing weight this week, and I'm hoping for another small loss today for my weigh-in tomorrow!
I'm so glad I joined this group. The feeling of community and having people in on the same path as me has really got me motivated in a new way 0 -
Well crap! I just got home this evening from a week of vacation in Savannah....I walked my butt off, drank lots of water, and did well the first several days with food. But then I succumbed to all the good restaurants there. Long story short I had my first no loss/GAIN week since last August. I]Oh well back on the horse tomorrow.

You're doing really well to stay focused on weight loss when work is stressful. I hope the layoffs don't affect you! Packing lunch for work makes a huge difference to me - even basic bought sandwiches have mayo etc, but it does take organisation.0 -
