    Sorry for your loss.



    I took a rest day yesterday, as I have yet another cold. I plan on doing some Turbo Fire later today. Fire 55EZ is scheduled, but if I don't feel that well tonight, I will do Fire 45EZ or Fire 30 instead. As long as I get something in....

    Feeling a little better today, but we are out of Dayquil. I can't get some place to get more before work, so I hope the ibuprofen will help me cold. I did Fire 30 last night. I thought I killed it, but my calorie burn wasn't as high as last time. Oh, well. I am planning an hour of Turbo Fire tonight...HIIT 20, Sculpt 30 and Ab Burner (from ChaLean Extreme actually). Whew! Lots of work, but it's great!


    Have a great Friday!


    Oh, and welcome to all our new posters!

    I have my first long spin class tomorrow. I usually do 1 hour and tomorrow is 1 and a half hours. Should be a good calorie burn.

    Hurt my lower back so no workout yesterday (which was my rest day anyway), or today. We'll see how I feel tomorrow. I'm hoping better b/c I hate not being able to workout. And it's really hard for me to stay at 1200 calories. Being laid up is depressing and all i want to do is eat! Grrrrr!!!

    I know I'm late, had a very busy day! Ended up cooking too much, eating too much, and drinking too much with the hubs. It was an overindulgent evening. Blah, I feel yucky for it too. Anyway, I weighed myself this morning and I actually maintained over the weekend, which is good, because we had pizza. I did control portions, but I also had a piece of chocolate cake and 4 jalapeno poppers.

    1/30 starting weight: 152
    2/14 current weight: 149
    weekly difference: -1 pound
    total difference: -3 pounds
    goal weight: 140-ish (I just want a flat stomach and to be buff! Is it too much to ask?)

    Wowzer DJJW! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Seeing some real deternination here!!

    Now for me to do the same!! Yikes! :noway:

    Thank-you all so much for your caring words in our loss. This truly has affected our family and your care is much appreciated. Each day is a new start and I am ever so much more aware that it is God's gift to me to do something that matters. It just is hard to take those steps sometimes!:brokenheart:

    So for Monday (on Tuesday)

    I have been hiding out...I stpped on scale and yikers! 155. I gained 5 pounds. Anyway, I am refocusing and trying to get to around 130ish...blah... It is very hard for me now. I have lost 100 pounds but this last bit of weight loves me!

    Oh and I can not fix the ticker for the exercise. Does anyone know how??

    Me too! I had to change my ticker to 0 pounds loss. I'm refocusing and moving forward.

    Was out of commission last week as I had hurt my back. Did not workout at all. Just some yoga this past Friday and Saturday, just to stretch my body out, really, so no major calorie burn. So the fact that I lost anything w/out the exercise and just "ok" eating, is good. I'll take it. I went back to my TF/CLX hybrid schedule. Just started where I left off before my injury. Feels sooooo good to workout again!!

    Was on such a good weight loss kick....then got kicked on my butt with a mean cold!! Didn't lose or gain. No exercise all last week. Still feeling down today, but I'm going to bring in some light exercises. Good luck this week.
  • Don't know what's wrong with me...I work out 5-7 days a week, I eat below my numbers and today I jumped on the scale to find defeat! :angry: I had to move my ticker in the direction I didn't want it to go.
    The sad part is, I feel good. I think I look leaner (if that makes sense).

    But, I'm not giving up. I did this once and reached my goal weight. I can surely do it again.

    Here are my stats:
    1/12/11 Starting weight: 143.8
    2/07/11 Last weigh- in: 143.8
    02/21/11 Current weigh: 145.6

    Don't! You're probably gaining muscle which weighs more than fat. Especially if you think you look leaner. Are your clothes fitting better or looser? If they are, then your work is paying off. Don't get discouraged. The scale will move down again, eventually. :)

    You are most likely gaining muscle.I think we fight with the scale and need to look at the whole picture. Have you taken your measurements lately? Try that. I was so suprized when I did. Hang in there honey we WILL get to where we wanna go. I had to move my ticker to 0 pound loss and I'm okay with that. I dld learn my lesson and I'm back on track today.

    I'm with you girly:flowerforyou:
  • I have lost 3 pounds according to the gym scale but I weight in offically tomorrow at weight watchers. I'm so hopping for some kind of loss. I know lately I've not been so good but I'm on the right track now.

    How is everyone else doing?

    Gosh darn it! I was at 148 on Friday but I ate like crazy on Friday and Sunday, so I'm back up to 149. :grumble: I haven't changed my ticker to reflect this, because I am going to have that and one more pound off by Friday! No more of this binge eating for me. Anyway, here goes:

    1/30 starting weight: 152
    2/21 current weight: 149
    weekly difference: -1 pound
    total difference: -3 pounds
    goal weight: 140-ish (I just want a flat stomach and to be buff! Is it too much to ask?)

    This looks familiar...

    Thanks! TF/CLX is Turbo Fire/Chalean Extreme hybrid. Turbo Fire is a super cardio program and the Chalean Extreme is a strength/weight training program. Combining the two to see what kind of results I get.
