Hey all! I just turned 32 and am trying to loose weight for the first time ever. I used to struggle to keep my weight up! I weigh 135 now (148 the beginning of the year), and my body carries it really bad. I don't have anyone around me excited to eat healthy/exercise so looking for motivation! I'd like to get down to 115.
I'm a mom of 3 boys and work full time as a training manager/medic. Time is short, which has led to a lot of fast food dinners - a habit I'm trying hard to break! I look forward to the next month!6 -
I’m having a maintenance calorie week here. My daughter’s birthday was this week, I have a ladies’ day planned for tomorrow (which includes delicious food), and today was my 11 mile training run so I carb-loaded yesterday like crazy. It seemed to do the trick because this run was so much better than the ten miles I suffered through two weeks ago. Next week I’ll be back to my deficit and the week after that will be another maintenance week so I’ll be well-fed for my 12 mile run. I’ll be posting little to no losses for the next while I imagine, sorry about that!
Daily check in:
Exercise? 11 mile run, 5 mile recovery walk
Calories? Way under. I ate too much yesterday and barely got to 1300 calories today because I’m still stuffed.
Tracked? Yes!4 -
@TangoJuliet110, welcome! We're happy to travel this journey with you and I'm sure you'll find great encouragement here. Looking forward to celebrating with you as you reach your goal of 115!!
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, recumbent bike, 20 minutes, 6.02 miles
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes4 -
Happy Sunday! Welcome to Week 1 for June, Gutbusters!
For those of you who are new to the group, here are some weigh-in FAQs:
• When do I post my weigh-in?
Post on your "scheduled weigh-in day". So, if you posted a weight in the New Member Registration thread on a Tuesday, then your scheduled weigh-in day will be each Tuesday of the month. Let me know if you have a question.
• Why is Week 1 beginning on Sunday? Haven't we been already posted our starting weights?
Think of it as a first birthday. You're born, then you must live a whole year before you can celebrate being 1. In this challenge, you post a starting weight, then you have a whole week to work on weight loss before you post your Week 1 weigh-in.
• How do I post my weigh-in?
Your posts should look like this:
Username:
Week: June Week 1
PW: Previous Weight in pounds
CW: Current Weight in pounds
• What's my previous weight?
If you're new, your Week 1 previous weight is whatever weight you posted in the New Member Registration thread or check out the current spreadsheet to see what your posted info says. If you're returning, your Week 1 previous weight is whatever your weight was in the last week of the previous month.
• I'm still confused. Who can help me?
Just ask a question here and tag me (@BonnieHosk85), or PM me and I'll do my best to get back as soon as possible. I want you to succeed as much as I want success for me. If you miss your weigh-in I will message you to remind you. Because I care. If you need to drop out for the month, just let me know. Feel free to private message me if you need to.

Pretty sure this is just leftover from my heavy pre-run carb-loading on Friday, but either way I’ll be in this general area for awhile anyhow. 😓2 -

Wow I'll take it and here's to me thinking I had a crappy last week, it seemed like an off week for me, and just got home from camping with our new motorhome we bought! 😁3 -
@bjdavidson964, safe travels home. Just remember, the scale is only one way to measure our success.
@Shalvy2007, nice loss! Have fun with the motorhome!1 -

@lisadianehays55, got it. Thanks.
@bjdavidson964, don't let this derail you. Drink lots of water today and be sure to weigh, measure, etc. You will drop this vacay weight quickly.
@Crystalbarton31, congrats on your loss!
Sunday team, weighed-in and accounted! Thanks!!
