Now I have to concentrate on making sure I meet my other goals of swimming 3 times a week (just missed it last week because of stupid work) and losing 8 inches all over!!!
Anyone reading this who is having trouble seeing how they will ever lose weight; I never thought that one website would have so much positive influence over my life, and I never thought I would lose 20lbs in 6 weeks!!!
It's all down to you girlies keeping me on track....Thank you so much; you are my rocks!!!

Hey everyone! glad to see the losses so far! My day is today, monday.. later on after i've gotten some much needed sleep after a hectic weekend at work..
Let me get some opinions on this.. ok so going off of my excitedness, i went running yesterday and pushed myself and made it to 4 miles woo!! i was tired, my foot started to hurt and all, but i went at a consistent pace and wasn't totally out of breath or anything like that.. about 20 min later i was home in the shower, and felt a little weak and noticed that the periphery of my vision in the left eye was wavy, (the edge away from my nose)..so i took my contacts out, and still the same.. luckily it went away after 15-20 min, and i've been fine since. i ate dinner and def felt better still. has anyone ever had anything like this? i ate a small meal a little before going and had water. my mother said she experienced it before, but it was while she was on some pill while trying to conceive my sister. i'm def not in that situation lol.0 -
WOW!
We're all really livin up to our thread name! Kickin some major *kitten* this month already with the losses! How exciting! Keep up the great work everyone!
Also, thank you for all of your support. If it wasn't for all of you, I don't think I'd still be doing this. I am now more and more motivated as each day passes. You girls rock! 0 -
Great job Emmy!! You ladies look great with those double digits that say how much you've lost.
I need to kick my butt in gear and stick to my plan cause I am only hurting myself. Yesterday was one of those days that I was hating that fact that I had to count everything that went in my mouth. But I was up early this morning due to the time change so I managed to make some of Meag's pumpkin oatmeal.
Hope everyone had a great weekend!!0 -
Happy Monday Friends! So this weekend was not as active as I wanted but hey that happens. I didn't run like I wanted to but I was feeling sick and super tired from my neighbors keeping me up. I figured that chilling out and focusing on good healthy food was a better idea then killing myself at the gym. I plan to run today to keep with my training plan. I have my half marathon this sunday. I am somewhat nervous about it because I know I have not been able to run as much as I wanted to. But, I am trying to focus on the fact that this is supposed to be for fun and we are not taking this too seriously. I am very excited for Triathlon training to officially start! Today is the beginning! Even though I know I made some not soo amazing choices this weekend I still feel great and my pants are still feeling looser then they were before. I am hoping for the best this Friday, I am sticking to my food plan to the T this week, and I will hit my 6 days of working out this week! Congrats to everyone! EMMY that is awesome! I love checking in with you guys! So far I couldn't take a picture yet but I will put one up soon. Happy Monday guys!
Question of the day(new idea?? anyone like it?)
What are you doing today to keep yourself on plan?
I am making sure to have all my food in my food plan the night before so I am ready. I am committing to working out every day, with the help of you guys!0 -
Aly - I think it was better that you had your cheating done before you officially started your triathalon training. Now you've gotten it out of the way and can focus on your food plan and training. You are gonna do great!! And I love the new idea with your question of the week. Its another way to get us all thinking how we're gonna make this work for the week, rather than just the day. Then a week will turn into weeks, then months, then years.
What am I gonna do to stay on plan?? Yesterday was another eye-opener for me. I was not as prepared as I should have been, knowing that I was gonna be away from all of my usual resources. When I am home and at work, I surround myself with healthier choices and find it a lot easier to make better choices. But even though I made my lunch yesterday, I was not completely prepared. I should have taken along some more snacks. They were popping fresh popcorn on the showroom for their customers but I refused to indulge because I knew that it would be loaded with butter and salt. And I was not even going to look and see what was in the vending machine because that was a temptation that I probably would not have survived. So I will now keep a snack in my purse for times like yesterday. And I need to plan my meals for the week so that I can include the entire family on healthy eating!0 -
Great job ladies! Keep it up...
Guamgrly- Considering everything I think you handled yourself well and its great that you have a plan going forward for snacks!
Roo- I know its all about the balance I guess though! Feeling a little better today so not craving so much
Emmyworthy- WOW!!! Great work. Keep it up you are doing great!
Allie- nice job on the run! That must have felt really good. I would just pay attention to the eye thing... if it keeps happening maybe write down what you have been doing prior to it and the environment and then touch base with your doctor. That way he/she has info on other things just in case its environmental
lostalykat- its good that you listen to your body and know when you need to just rest and even better that you have a plan to get back to everything so you can jump right back in... im in the same boat... head cold started this weekend trying to take it easy so I can get back in to lifting/cardio soon... thats awesome about the half marathon... cant wait to hear how it goes!
My plan is to keep tracking everything and jump on here when I need the motivation... I noticed I have been thinking about what I am going to eat in my head. May start inputting in the beginning of the day so I see where calories are going to be and then make any changes if I need to.
Happy Monday everyone!0 -
Guam-
Great job laying off the popcorn- meal planning, even just a little can be a huge huge help! I highly recommend it!
Aly-
Super good luck on the run this weekend! good idea not to push yourself over the weekend- your body is going to need all it's strength to get through the Half Marathon!
I am actually finding "sticking to my plan" really easy this time around. I'm kind of a super planner, so starting a diet is usually pretty easy, but then after a month or two I start to taper off (10 weeks and counting so far tho- I'm closing in on 3!). Idk, all I really need is continued enthusiasm- that's what keeps me committed. But I also like to think that the flexibility I am affording myself and the fact that I am sharing this with the boyfriend instead of keeping it away from him is helping hugely as well. I think things just have come together this time around- running "sucess", MFP, my accumulated 'diet' knowledge, the boyfriend and my fam, and a work schedule that kinda keeps me from being super social- it's just all working right now, it's not a plan its just kind of... life.
Good luck!0 -
I wasn't here for October but I am down for November!
I am just starting out so I am going to keep it pretty simple.
*Lose 4lbs by Dec.1.
*DRINK less calories.
*Monitor what I eat everyday...no holding back.
*Stop eating after 9pm unless it's a weekend (this is just my starting goal for that lol)
Man oh man...I hope I can do at least that!!
Good luck to everyone else on their goals!0 -
Emmy, didn't forget you but I think your achievement earned you the much coveted and never before heard of (cuz I just made it up)
AWESOME BADGE OF ROCKING THE WEEK:
...
Stupid Photo bucket wont work. Here is the link maybe one of you can get it to post?

finn - I love inputting my meals for the day and seeing how much I can play with my snacks throughout the day.
Ashley - welcome to the crew!!
Gonk - love the award!!0 -
Everytime I try and catch up with this thread, I get overwhelmed. Everyone seems to be doing a great job with getting workouts in and making better, healthier food choices!
I want to say (as sort of a blanket statement) to make sure you're eating enough. Unless you're super super tiny or have very slow metabolism (or have had a reliable doctor/medical professional/nutritionist tell you otherwise) you need to be eating 1200 NET calories - aka 1200 + your exercise calories. Eat nuts, almond/sunflower/peanut butter on your apples/bananas and there's a zillion other ways to get your calories in. Fast weight loss is great, but it has to be sustainable, otherwise it'll come back...slow and steady always wins out!
Goal #1 (or I think #4) of mine was to PR my 10K yesterday - 59:01 or under but ideally, under 56 minutes. Ran my race in 53:56 - knocked 5 minutes and 6 seconds off my last 10K race on a harder course with many, many hills. I had a really ****ty pre-race morning as in everything that could have gone wrong did and I was holding back tears and almost hyperventilated at the start. I'm proud of myself for toughing through it, very happy with the time...but running is so mental and sometimes it's just hard to get through a race.
Still staying away from the scale and logging my food - it's actually really hard to not log food on purpose. Starting next Monday, I'll be back at it...off the scale until December 1st though. Got in 3 days of strength training last week (goal is at least 2 days) and only 2 days of running (goal is 3-4) but my leg was bad and it was beneficial to step down the running. Back to 4x running this week and fitting in strength around it. Trying to figure out long/short runs for this week...I can get in a 3 miler tomorrow before work, 6-8 miler Thursday (yay Holiday!), a short 3-4 miler (speed workout?) Saturday, and a 10+ on Sunday. A lot of miles when I'm trying to cut back to 15-20 instead of 20-25 but I can't not take advantage of a holiday during the week :noway:
Hope everyone is having a fabulous Monday! I'll try and keep up better so I don't keep posting selfishly:flowerforyou:0 -
Thaaaaanks everyone=]
And an especially big thank you to Gonkers for making me the best award I have ever received=] hahaah!! I fricking loooove it!!!
I hope you realise that without you lot I would never have the will power to say no when someone offers me a crisp, or a bit of chocolate, or a glass of wine, or a tub of Bailey's flavour Hagen Daaz( personal fave=])
You are the reason I'm losing weight and I want to thank each and every one of you for keeping me inspired and motivated to be the best (looking) person I can be!!! hahaha!!
Jill- I know my calories for the last week were very low and I'd just like to thank you for the advice on getting the calories up without eating crappy foods!!! I was really struggling to meet my calories last week and just didn't even touch my exercise calories!!! So I'm gonna stock up on peanut butter and banana's yum yum yum... two of my favourite foods!!
Keep it up everyone!! Emmy=] 0 -
Just noticed question of the day- good thinking Aly!!!
I keep myself on plan by visualising myself in size 12 (uk size) skinny jeans with a tiny butt and waist!!! I cannot wait to get there so that keeps me on track if I'm craving a little chocolate, or not feeling my workout!!

Sounds lovely! I don't want you to think I'm singling you out, but you did make me think of that very important reminder. We've all been in the boat where we think eating less helps...I was once under 90 pounds eating just 3 cups of lettuce a day and thought that was okay
I do struggle to eat enough sometimes on maintenance and sometimes can't justify eating back 1000 exercise calories even though I know my HRM is spot on. Rifle through people's diaries and some of the threads here that deal with higher calorie, healthy foods...I love my almonds and natural peanut butter. I discovered chocolate covered almonds over the weekend...TROUBLE 0 -
Adding Ashley....
I am still continuing my no-candy-campaign and have been successful... though I was REALLY close about 3 times but my bf was happy to tell me off for trying to take a free candy from the store counter. Its crazy how much candy is just hanging around this time of year... Believe me I have noticed!
Workout is in t - 2 hours which I'm glad about because I haven't been able to workout since thursday night and honestly feel like all I ate this weekend was bread. And of course, while I enjoyed it at the time I just feel bloated and carby.... IDK if that's a word.
I know I said I was going to weigh myself for til next week but gonk made a convincing argument about weight differentiation trhough the week. So tonight I'm going to see how I measure up.
QOTD - I am making sure I am drinking my 8 cups of water. People like to heat delicious smelling food right by my office and a glass of water helps me realize that I'm not really hungry for the food. oh and it helps me not eat the milky way that is 6 feet from my desk (not that I'm thinking about it).... Gosh need some water.....

I just have to say that I love this thread!
First and foremost it is so great to see so much support for everyone.
But even more importantly its really nice to see people offer advice that may be hard to take or read and just for us to have a healthy dialogue back and forth. Thanks allislefttogain and emmyworthy for this!
I guess I am just trying to say that sometimes its not just the encouraging words but also the holding each other accountable (and being open to people do that) that is SOOO important to making lifestyle changes and keeping ourselves healthy.
Hope this made sense!
lets keep kicking *kitten* ladies!!!!0 -
QOTD-anwer: I planned all my meals in advance, wrote a grocery-list before going to the store and decided in advance to have a caffe latte with 1% milk instead of a frappuchino
