November challenge !!!!!!
Replies

Even after the weekend I had, I'm at 188.9. YEA!
I went on a school trip as a chaperon for the weekend. A 3+ hour bus ride up on Friday, so I didn't drink much water. Didn't really want to use the bathroom on the bus. Then there the water didn't taste that great, so I had to force myself to drink some. Anyway, I was starving all day and I couldn't figure out why. If dawned on me the 2nd day it was because of the lack of water. I've read that sometimes hunger isn't really hunger, but that you are thirsty. It's really true.0 -
forgot to WI this morning! will do tomorrow morn0

Well thanks to TOM and my over-the-top sodium intake I am up 2 pounds this week! That 10 pound goal is not going to be met, but at this point I'll settle for 5.0

wow! everyone is dropping like flies around here guess that means i am doing a horrible motivating job! i will post weights tomorrow to let anyone else get their weights in. i have 1.2lbs gone this week im happy about that seeing that horrible monster greeted me again this month. hope next week goes better!
i am not sure if anyone has thought about doing the 360 min workout/week and 2500cal burn but that has motivated me this week
hope everyone is doing well!

Hey everyone!
I am down to 164. Only a .8 loss but I'm also PMSing which means a whole lot of water weight and a looooot of cravings for sweets this week. I am still going to work really hard to get as close to my goal of 160 by the end of November as possible. I have a really tough workout tomorrow and then my looong run on Saturday. Plus I am going to go stock up on more fruit to snack on this week instead of all the junk my parents have in the house. I'm in the middle of an internship for school and I am so not used to these long hours and an hour of commuting. When I get tired I have a terrible habit of overeating so I need to work on controlling that.
Come on everyone! It is the middle of the month! We only have about 2 weeks left. We can work hard and eat healthy for two weeks (with the exception of Thanksgiving ) Even if we arent going to reach our original goals we can't give up. Lets work really hard and get as close to those goals as possible!
Hope everyone has a great week!0 -
My kids are recovering from a bug, fevers and everything. ugh so after my sleepless night last night I didn't weigh this morning. Will do it first thing in the morning!0

Happy with today's weight (215.4lbs) and doing great on calorie goals and push ups/strength training.
Took 3 days off from cardio at the gym (we've been sick here) but getting back on today and going for hopefully 5k on the treadmill.0 -

For my chart can you put my start weight for Nov. at 187 lbs. 210 was my start weight with the begging of my journey in September.
Start weight is 187
CW: 183
Goal for november is 15 but I think that is not going to happen so lets say 10.0 -
Just got back from a great work out, 614 calories!! (50 minutes on treadmill, 25 minutes on elliptical).
Also did my 100 Push Ups Program exhaustion test (60 modified push ups) and working on Week 2 Day 1 of 200 Squats, maxed out at 20.0 -
way to go ladies! here is what i have so far. everyone is doing awesome, this is a rough month but we can do it! we are half way done!!! again if anything is incorrect let me know. keep up the great work!

Hey wouldn't mind joining if there's still room
been doing bootcamp for 8 weeks with no real visible results
so reigning in on the eating hard core...
Name: Tasha
Start weight: 227 (was 230 last sun/mon)
Aim for November: let's shoot for 10
What you are going to do to get there: continue cal counting + watching carbs, workout 3-5x a week (spin, elliptical, xfit)
Your current motivation: at least losing the poundage i had lost before falling of the wagon before I see my man at xmas, continuing to get healthy & stronger, and ultimately surpass what i had lost and keep going to goal...
good luck all
with my original post i guess i should have added that my 10 lb goal is from the 230... so i would like to get to 220. so i guess it's a 7lb goal for this challenge lol my bad.
but don't change anything on the chart it's all good! great work!0 -
sorry for the late post. i'm preparing for my finals so didnt have time to come online. measured my weight today at 121.4lbs.0

1. eating CRAP, a horrible for you coconut/chocolate/gooo bar, chips and chocolate frosting..................grrrrrrrrrr. maybe because of that time of the month or maybe because i have been a little depressed over one of my family members passing away this week.. either way its not good and i need to stop!
2. new workout tape, walking during lunch, writing in all my calories even if they are horrible0 -

1. at this point I am at a stage where I don't know if I'm eating too few or too many cal, not sure what my losing equation is -- but over did it a bit today for sure at dinner. not too terribly tho.
2. working out before I leave work. & walking ze doggy. & try to motivate to do the 30DS I enjoy it but find it a drag to motivate myself to do it alone at home... and hard to do the jumpy parts cuz i live 3rd floor apt... so need to figure out some mods0 -

I hate to sound cocky but I have been doing everything to meet my goal. My house is the sick house and when my husband came home from work I lent for the gym because luckily I did not get sick and needed to get away from pukey toddlers and Princess movies. My eating is good too!!
This week I am going to ocus on cranking out on major calorie burn because Wednesday my my husband and I are packing the kids up for road trip for thanksgiving. Bringing workout gear to hopefully get a few jogs in while away from my normalcy. Plus, with going to family for holidays you never know exactly how your meal is prepared so calorie counting is going to be difficult but just got to be sensible about it. Good luck to everyone!!!0 -
My starting weight was 215.8lb and my goal is to maintain.
Today was my weigh in day I'm at 213.4lbs. Very happy about that.0 -

I hate TOM. I tell my husband that's why I keep getting pregnant, I haven't had a period since February 2009 (yes, 2009) and before the two I had then, it was December 2007 lol. So in a full three years I've only had three periods lol. And three kids.0 -

My weight this morning was 268.6. That's only a 0.4 loss, but I'll take it. Hopefully next week's weigh in will be better. It could have been worse though. The scale has been WAY UP during TOM's visit. Hopefully, I won't overdo it at Thanksgiving so it can continue to drop. Its really my fault though. I've been eating crap...I'm working to purge it out of my system only to eat some it again at Thanksgiving. :-/0
