Checking in today....199.6, up 1.6 from last week...but, I know why...it was NEW YEARS!!!!!! Plus, TOM showed up & was not helpful, but we shall see what this week has in store. I am really reevaluating my diet, and while I eat mostly well, my weakness is sweet stuff. I am going to make more of an effort to minimize my sweets intake & pump up my fruit & veggie intake. You guys help to keep me accountable & I have been hovering around the same weight & that can be seen as good because I'm not gaining, but bad because I am trying to lose the weight. But all in all, I am at a place where I want to challenge myself to actually achieve my goals, not just talk about them & I know with a lot of hard work & being very disciplined & diligent, I will achieve them over time, but I have to give my BEST effort & some days I feel like I am just all around slacking in my eating. So, I am going to put up or shut up! I MUST do better with my eating...working out isn't my problem because I love to do it, but, my diet is!
Good luck to all of you all. Congrats to the losers, better luck next week to any who gained. To everyone: Be & STAY encouraged & motivated. We can be who we believe we can be, have what we want to have and go where we want to go...it takes time & we all can make small changes daily to help us all acheive our goals!
Have a great week!0 -
I would like to join if posible. I am new here and would like to get in better shape for the long hall.
My name is Meg and I currently weight 194 at 5' 5". Trying for a healthier lifestyle.0 -
I'm a late join if that's ok! It just so happens that I bought my scale on Dec 26, so I fit perfectly into this challenge!
I'm Sarah and I'd like to get in great shape, not 'decent' like I am now. I'm also pushing the edge of an 'unhealthy' BMI and I need to get that back under control. I do my weigh-ins on Sundays, and yesterday was my very first!!
starting weight 167.4 (dec 26, 2010)
current weight 163.4! (jan 2, 2011)
I am so thrilled to lose 4 lbs in my first week of effort, I know I can lose 10 by feb!!0 -

Checking in - no loss for me this week, still 182.
Things are slowly getting back to normal here after the Christmas/New Year festivities, still have the kids on holidays for the month of January but I am hoping to really get back to it. Finally removed the Christmas tree so I have room for the treadmill again, just need to use it now :laugh: Logging my food today for the first time in weeks so that is a good start I guess, I WILL do it!!
Congrats to everyone who has lost weight, it is such a tough time of year but when I see that so many of you guys can do it then I figure that I can do it too!!0 -

Example: If you weigh 100 Pounds 40% is 40 Pounds so you would exercise 40 Minutes
And of couse Under Calories
TUESDAY CHALLENGE:
H2O Tuesdays= 12 Glasses Water!!! Come on! This will be for EVERY TUESDAY!
Under Cals and Add 5 Minutes of exercise to whatever your % was yesterday. So if you were "supposed" to do 45 minutes then today you are "supposed" to do at least 50 minutes! :grumble:
Made the water...but only did 50 minutes of exercise, unless I can throw in my cleaning I did....I should have had 69 minutes of exercise, but oh well...thats probably the most consececutive exercise I've done in a long long time.0 -
