Last 20 pounds Club

Cletc

I wanted to start this topic too.
I'm not quite ready for the Last 10 pounds Club yet.

Do you have 20 pounds or less yet ?
Good job!
Join the Club :drinker:

For those of you in your last 20. Your weekly goal should be a max of 1 lb/week although I would recommend 0.5/week. Once you get to your last 10 your goal should not be more than 0.5lbs/week. And eating your exercise calories becomes even more important. You will also want to change up your routine every 4-6 weeks to shock your system.

Hope this helps

I got 20 left I'm halfway there!

Yes... and it has been such a pain! Cheers to 20 pounds to go!! :drinker:

Cletc

Thanks for joining ! :drinker:

I'm going to enjoy this club I'm sure!

Today is my No Running day -- rest for my LongRun tomorrow
I'm really nervous not expending those calories in exercise today :yawn: :yawn:

I've decided to stay under a certain number of Carbs. I hope that heps me. I started doing that two days ago

And keep running and biking at an easy pace

Great advice, thanks!

13 more... I'm in!

Cletc

I have been doing ZERO exercises, just my wogging (walk/jog)

Today I will begin the Primal Strength exercises at a BabySteps kind of pace, definitely under-doing it. It will take me a week or two to get used to the range of motion alone!

I always under-do everything. I know I can be prone to owies and injuries and don't want to get sidelined.

I also know how Out of Condition I am and how underactive I'd been and that my muscles are really weak, extremeties and core.

and at my age, I don't want to throw out my back either!

I'm not sure what I want to end up weighing, but that number does fall somewhere in the "20 pounds to go" category. I had thought I wanted to be a size 6, but just this week I started wearing size 8's, and I can see I'm not even close to what I want my body to look like!

When I started, I thought getting to 130 lbs would be unbelievable but now that I'm getting closer, I realize I don't care what I end up weighing. I know that I want to be strong and I want my muscles to show, so I need to get rid of the layer of flab covering them up. So I still have a lot of work ahead of me!

Congrats to everybody getting so close to their goal!

Cletc

so I need to get rid of the layer of flab covering them up. So I still have a lot of work ahead of me!

Good thinking.
I agree and that's what I'm aiming for too.
I was at "goal number for now" in Nov.2009 so I know it's do'able so that's why I have that goal number for now.
I can't remember what I looked like though! So I'm going to find out all over again.

Let's go 20's -- we'll make Wise Choices and get ourselves kicked outta this Club eh?

I have 20 pounds to lose. I may go further if I want but with working out and 20 lbs I will feel pretty good... I 'm in!

Very important to work the muscles along with the wogging..btw I love to wog! Make sure you are doing LOTS of stretching so you do not cause injury.

I'm in the range!
Lost 30lb and 14lb to go. Yay!

emmajane_2288

I'm in! I have 21.6 lbs to go and I weigh in on Wednesday so I'm hoping i drop that 1.6! I've hit a motivational wall so I am hoping this helps! BTW - do you all stick to the daily sugar recommendation? What about carbs? I kind of feel MFP gives me too high of a carb allowance and too low of a sugar allowance. if I have one serving of fruit and a glass of milk I am already over my limit for the day!

Cletc

Hi my Fellow 20'ers !

I hope you are enjoyin ga nice MFP Saturday.

I did my Long Run this morning.

I'm really out of shape but am doing some slow walk-jogging to train for a HM coming up in the fall (and then two more)

I need to log some of my snacks.

I hope my carbs aren't too high..

I'm trying to stick to <50 carbs per day
I think that will turn out to be <75 but the aiming for <50 will help me stay in the double-digits.
