    Congrats to all those who lost this week! Well done!!

    After my sodium-filled weekend and with TOM on its way, I knew that I would be up this week. Sucks to be up as much as I am, though.

    Goals for this week are to stay within my calories and stay under my sodium. I am also gonna do my best to get in SOME exercise, but don't know how successful I will be given the fact that I am currently dealing with a leg injury which pretty much means no cardio (as a relatively new runner who is LOVING running, I am pretty down in the dumps about it). I'm thinking I might start the 100 push up and 100 sit up challenges.

    Wow, awesome loss for week 1. Congrats everyone!

    My week 2 goals- continue to stay on track with nutrition, stay as low as possible on sodium, try to amp it up with the workouts. My knee is starting to bother me a little bit. Tomorrow is a rest day so hopefully that does the trick.

    Congrats to everyone!!!

    My goals for the week are not to gain, but lose even with my hubby coming to town, utilize my time better, if I have time at work try and spend some of it walking outside (lunch/breaks/mornings), get to 255.7, stick to my schedule, start looking more into low carb instead of going backwards, make something for breakfast, I am so tired of oatmeal (BLECH!)

    Thanks for updating the list Rach. It's so awesome of you to do this. Everyone did really great gain or loss! Staying accountable is so important. The more honest you are with yourself, the easier this journey will get.
    Thursday is my weigh in day but I weighed in today to see how I'm doing since my one lb gain last week and its looking good!
    Also I was able to fit into a dress that I bought in October and didn't fit when I purchased it. Still could use some spanx to smooth me out but it zips! And I can sit down in it!
    My goals is to burn 5000 calories by Thursday (So far I'm a little over 3000), continue to drink 130oz of water and stay 100% accountable with my diary.

    Have a great week!

    I realized yesterday that I'm less than 6 weeks away from my first 10k, yikes! Revised my training schedule a little so my goals for the next few weeks will reflect a lot of that:

    1- 3 miles, 2 times and 4 miles, one time
    2- Drink my half weight in ounces of water EVERY day MINIMUM (170lbs = 85oz)
    3- At least 8 hours sleep
    4- Have a snack every afternoon so I don't eat WHILE I'm cooking dinner.

    Good luck ladies!!

    Rach, sorry I'm only just getting you my weigh-in. Work has been crazy busy lately. I was 202 again on Tuesday morning. But I was 201 today if you're willing to give me credit for it!!! I'd LOVE to show a loss, rather than a stay-the-same!!! ;)

    I'm finally coming out of my TOM fog. I don't know if it's my age, or what is going on with me, but my POST TOM is worse - way worse - than my pre-TOM. Tomorrow is my Dr. appt, though, so I'm going to hash everything out with her.

    Also, I was supposed to have been down to 195 by my appt tomorrow. I had set a goal for myself to lose 7 lbs by my March appt (from January), and it didn't happen. :( On the face of it, I'm technically doing everything right. But the scale HATES me!! I'm sticking with it, though. Somethings gotta give at some point in time!!

    Great job this week, ladies!!! Keep up the good work!!!!

    Signing up for my 8th Susan Komen 5k walk on Friday. I do it every year with my mom, and I love it! But I'm hoping later in the summer to sign up for another 5k as a runner though instead of a walker!!!

    Goals for this week (I'm totally late with this)
    Work out on the treadmill 5/7 days this week
    Water, Water Water, all 7 days (this is so hard for me on the weekends)
    Meals, I need to plan ahead for me and DH with low calorie meals
    To bed no later than 11pm.

    For this week I'm working on:

    1) Portion size - I'm measruing everthing so that I can guesstimate better what I eat when I'm out
    2) Cardio and Strength training everyday - Need to double up my workouts the rest of the week since I missed 3 days already
    3) Eat more vegetables

    I played a sport!!! Work Intermural Volleyball to be exact. And it was so much fun.

    Now why is this a big deal? Well, hand-eye coordination for me = zero. and I'm typically afraid of the ball no matter how hard I try to not be. Oh and did I mention I work with the military? So the people I'm playing and the officers I'm playing with are just naturally athletic, fit, and usually insanely competitve so they don't normally take well to people there for "fun" or "any girl who didn't get a scholarship for this sport". I played softball last year and was stressed every minute of it because I knew I was the weak link, but they needed numbers to not forfeit (that's right, my playing was only slightly better than forfeiting). The stress really turned me off to the experience...

    I had a wild hair and decided to get over my fear. And despite my having never played before, I had a stone-cold blast. And my coworkers were actually supportive this time!!! They said they'd teach me as we played and were just happy to see me out there giving my spastic best! This was so huge to me that they wanted to teach me, the only girl on the team, and they were happy about it! :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    Seriously, might have just made my month.

    That sounds like so much fun! I envy you...I don't think I could ever do that. I must have a touch of social anxiety disorder lol. I used to play volleyball in middle school, but I just can't picture myself doing any sport now.

    HI! Loved seeing everyone's weight loss, we did great! My weigh-in for this week is 174.5 :-D Today I reached my halfway goal exactly!! 28.5 lb down, 28.5 to go!

    I've been working out and trying to eat right for 14 weeks, so I am right on track w/ 2 lb per week even though I've not lost on some weeks and lost a little more on other weeks. If you aren't seeing the scale move, HANG IN THERE! The first month I worked out and felt like I was dying all the time I lost only 5 lb.. I was expecting a lot more since you lose "water weight." However, I tried not to get discouraged and now I feel like it was worth that! To top it off, I have made small changes to my diet but I don't really forbid myself to "never" have something I enjoy.. I love this site!!!
