    Can't understand it. I have been sticking to 1200 calories a day. I have gone to zumba 3x this week. I have walked 3 miles. I have gone to a toning class. and I only lost .4 lb. Any suggestions?

    I also have been drinking my water. But exercising like crazy. I need motivation.

    4/6: 246
    4/13: 245

    One birthday dinner (w/ cake) and two schmoozing dinners with business clients. Plus wife is sick so we've had to rely on fast food more than we'd like. Still lost a pound. I'll call that a 'win'.

    @aleesha9109 There are a number of reasons your loss could be slow right now. For one thing, if you are working out very hard (good for you!) you'll be putting on some muscle as you lose fat, and muscle weighs significantly more than fat, so the results won't show the same on the scale. Try focusing on other things instead. How do you feel? How do your clothes fit? Have you taken your measurements lately? Those things will show you progress when your scale sometimes doesn't. It's also possible, though, that your body is just taking a little while to really "get in the groove," as it were. I've been doing this health and fitness thing for a LONG time, and I've seen a lot of fluctuating patterns in how bodies change and lose weight. Sometimes, it just takes a little while to get the ball rolling. As hard as it is, try to focus on things other than the scale to keep your motivation up. If you keep going, you WILL lose the weight and have the body you want! :)

    I lost 3 pounds in the last 8 days! I am so happy, I could do a jig. I know I won't have losses like this every week, and my trend is still only -1.5 pounds per week, but it still feels darn good.

    4/7: 266.4
    4/14: 265.4

    Change: -1.0

    Not much but I'll take it. It probably would have been better if I had behaved myself over the weekend. I'm a daily weigher and was down more than that on Friday. Kicking myself in the butt for it, but this weekend will be better!

    I tend to find losses fluctuate and then catch up. Have had a week I worked mega hard and lost nothing then following week I dropped 3 pounds.

    Remember, you're probably building muscle mass since you're working out, which is a good thing. Also, check your inches if you're measuring. There might be a time that you don't lose weight, but you could be losing inches. :)

    Yay off to a good start. I did Zumba for an hour like everyday though last week on spring break, so that is going to die since nursing school is starting back.

    Glad to know I'm not the only one who has to work on their weekend eating plans, it gets tricky on the weekends since it's our times to unwind, get things done, attend events and special occasions, etc. It's something I definitely plan to tackle this weekend. :)

    Start Weight: 62.8 kg (138.5lbs)
    April Week 1: 63.6 kg (140.2lbs)

    Gained .8kg! Yikes. I haven't been logging consistently, so I can see where my problems are. Trying to conceive, so my mind has been more on babies than anything else. :P I'll give it another week or two, but we'll see whether or not I keep going with this challenge over the next two/three months. I'll be trying to maintain at this point.

    Ah, shoot! Forgot to post! On April 13, I was 143, so no real change from my SW. I've gone down a touch since then, and am hoping that trend will continue! :wink:

    I weighed in at 213 Sunday morning before we got on our flight to Italy so that is the weight I am using this week. I can only hope that all the waking and site seeing this week will counter a the yummy Italian food and wine :)

    Good morning, all.

    I've been away so this is my first week weighing in on this Challenge. I've been struggling lately and so my weight has not changed. We've been travelling a lot and I've gotten out of some of the good habits I had developed over the past number of months (like exercise). I'm working on getting back into the groove.

    Here are my stats:
    OSW: 230 lbs
    UGW: 140 lbs
    SW for the July 4 Challenge (or, as we Canadians call it - the July 1 Challenge ;) ): 182 lbs
    GW for the July 4 Challenge: 162 lbs
    Current Weight: 182 lbs
    Weight remaining to lose in this Challenge: 20 lbs.

    Have a great week, everyone.
