Sixers LOVE Your Body--Week 3

kistinbee

Good morning Ladies! Been reading all your posts and you all seem so dedicated and having so much fun doing all this weight losing journey.........I'd love to join and be a part of it but need to know if you have to start at a certain time and just what all it involves.....thank you Judy

Hi Judy!! We would LOVE to have you join us! This is a WONDERFUL group of ladies!! It started a few years ago and has managed to stick around. We do six week challenges. This one is on week 3 (but please jump in at ANY time). Usually I start a new thread on Tuesdays (which is our normal weigh-in day). We have a start weight (SW) which is from the beginning of that particular 6 week challenge, our goal weight (GW) which is for the end of that particular 6 week challenge, our current weight (CW) which is our weight each week on weigh-in day, and our progress which is how many pounds we've gained or lost so far during that particular challenge. There's no catch to this thread...we just are holding ourselves accountable and sharing our secrets or concerns with each other. We help to motivate and inspire. It's REALLY a great group! This particular challenge, we decided to try and have mini goals for each week...last week was to stay with 200 calories of our nutrition goal each day, this week it's to get in at least 15 minutes of exercise each day. Just a little added motivation each week! SO...feel free to jump in at any time. We have a list with our weights which we update each week...just look through the thread for the MOST CURRENT list...so it has everyone's updated weigh-ins, copy and paste it into your post and add yourself to the bottom of the TOP section. If this doesn't make sense, please ask or just post it and we can fix it if needed!! We would LOVE to have you!!

Well what do you know.....wasn't as hard as I thought.....now to get busy

kistinbee

You did good Judy!! So...tell us a little about yourself.

Me...my name is Kristin. I'm 27. Married with an ADORABLE little girl who is almost 18 months! I work full time and wish so badly I could be a stay-at-home mommy but it's just not in the cards for me. I love to exercise and am working hard to get down to my goal weight that I was striving for before becoming pregnant. Have about 25 pounds left to go and am determined to get there!!!

kistinbee

And I noticed that you did get a list that wasn't the most current, so I fixed it. Just wanted to make sure no one gets left off.

Here's a little bit about me....I've been retired since Sept. of 2009 from a job I worked at for 48 years...Believe it or not I miss it...The last of March I turn 68 and have a 45 year old daughter from my first marriage.....the husband I have now ...we've been married almost 31 years........he is semi-retired but drives a school bus ...we have nine grandchildren together....I've had trouble with my weight practically all my life and have at one time or another been doing something like...weight watchers...tops...Jenny craig...name it I've done it...This place has got to be the best......has taught me to take one day at a time ....and to rely on the support of others to get me through it........I can spend a whole day just reading all the post and blogs and it gives me such motivation..........I just love it...and feel like I really know these people because their problems sound so much like mine.... gotta run now and figure out what's for dinner.........thank you so much............Judy

LAUREN!!! im with you on the cold shower thing. LOVE IT. i usually work out in the mornings before work and I finish up lay on the carpet dying loudly for a few minutes, then i make my pack up fr work by which time i am slightly less hot sweaty and gross!
then i have a lovely cool shower! if i shower hot i just get out hotter!!!

reading your funny posts has made me realise I've started to do funny stuff too.i caught myself AT WORK running up the stairs holding my butt!! i liked the fact I culd feel the muscles!! must remember not to do that in public again! haha!

Ithink i've knackered myself out this week with the exercise. juststruggling so much to draw up the motivation. When i worked out this morning, my legs just would not lift, i felt like a dead weight! i'm going to do my 40minute dvd tomorrow and then havethe weekend off. And hopefully by next week it'll be light enough in the evenings so i can start running outside again! woo hoo!!

i've been thinking too (i'm waffling now!!!) where is everyone from? I'm from the UK, midlands, not very exciting! where is everyone else from?? xx

Hey, considering that at the beginning of this week I was 134 (massive water weight), I consider this a HUGE accomplishment.

lulabellewoowoo

Hi Judy, welcome.

Here's a little bit about myself. I'm 36 and married to my wonderful husband of 5 years in April. We are raising two beautiful children, Shaelyn 10, and Christopher (AKA Pher) 9 in April. My original goal when I started this site was to get back to my wedding weight (137). Then to get to the weight I was when I first kissed my husband (131). So basically I have met my goal. Now it's all about the vanity and tightening the tushy after two kids. But I found that when I kept my goal at "maintenance", I was easily letting it slip away from me. Besides, I LOVE this group and want to continue to be a part of it, so here I am. These ladies are wonderful and real, with all the ups and downs, all the backwards and forwards, and all the tears and laughter. Could NOT have made it this far without you all (ayiyi, hormones kicking in with all the mushiness).

Oh yeah, and I'm from the beach in Maryland, USA, and now currently living in the big city of Baltimore (but less than an hour away from DC)

Very excited the weather is finally changing and might actually attempt running OUTSIDE today. Don't know how that will go as the ground will not be forcing me to move forward. But we will give it a go.

Good Morning...

Hello ladies! I walked home from work and then immediately walked to pick up the kids from school again yesterday. And I still got on the Wii Fit last night too. I actually broke even on my cals yesterday for the first time in ... I don't remember when! I'm not walking today since I have a hair appointment right after school lets out. But I still plan on getting on the Wii Fit tonight. I've decided that I will pick one nice day a week to walk home from work. I'm really feeling the extra exercise, but I'm also starting to see results! I weighed in Wednesday morning at 160.9, and this morning I weighed in at 159.6! Now I just have to keep momentum up over the weekend. I have a bad habit of weighing in a loss on Friday, but by Monday I've gained it back. I can do it! Now I just have to keep reminding myself of that! :laugh:

I'm hoping to check back in this evening, but if I don't, have a great weekend!!! :flowerforyou:

chipper15173

really wanted to go out to lunch while out running around. but, now i came home and fixed my lunch and the girls theirs.
son bought his trailer today. now to get it livable.

Good afternoon ladies!

Not really feeling in the mood, but I figured I needed to come on anyway and express it. Yesterday I didn't get to work out, so I was feeling horrible. I did get up this morning and shred L2, I will start L3 next week. I am ready for it! My eating today has not be the greatest. I love Lenny's subs. Has anyone else had them before? Oh and then their cookies. Ugg I feel like poo. I am almost to my calorie mark for the day, and I haven't even eaten dinner. I think if it still light outside when I get home tonight I might take a walk.

Clare...you did make me laugh..I needed it!!

Maybe we should incorporate funny things that we do or have seen to get those of us that need that extra boost and good one!!

I just hope that I get over this hump, I am really getting discouraged. I am going to go to the Dr in 2 weeks. I really want try a shed at least a lb or 2 before than. Baby steps right. I am going to talk to him about my weight loss. I am starting to get bothered by it. My mom is overweight and has bad back problems. She is very dependent on others around her. I am so scared that I am going to end up like her. I just wish that it was just as easy to lose the weight that it is to gain it.

Hope you all have a wonderful rest of the day and weekend!

Lauren

chipper15173

what to make for dinner. son was going to take us out, now he changed his mind. i didn't have anything out (excuse #1). i do have some frozen pizzas (excuse #2). we could just go out (excuse #3). or i could defrost something and fix something healthy. i do have some frozen grilled chicken in there also. in fact i think that is what i am going to do.

I feel really bad - I wasn't going to give an update on my exercise this week until I knew I could take the time to read everyone's updates and personally respond to them as some of you wonderful gals do. But I still cannot find the time...but want to make myself accountable...so just coming on to say I've done at least 30 min every day this week. Tomorrow I'm planning on going for a very early morning outside run. Sunday, I'm honestly taking the day off. There's been a few days this week I have put in about an hours worth of exercise and my body is asking for a break. So after tomorrow, Sunday is my exersize "off" day so my body can recoop a little. I'm sure I'll be cleaning the house to get it ready for work the next day (I do in home daycare)...so I assume that works as exercise?

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!!!

irishgal44

@ Maria – I hope your Achilles heals quickly and congrats on reaching your first goal on Valentine’s day!!!! I love your ticker picture.

Thanks so much! They are feeling much better after giving them a nice break this week from long distance running. And thanks so much for the congrats. I had to LOL. I weighed at 179.8. Very close to not making it, so I was excited! And thanks too for the ticker compliment. I thought it was fun. I love your profile picture - it's so fun!
