Labor day losers July 11th - September 5th (closed group)

KristynStephens15

hey everyone!

my weigh in was 272.4

Im so very excited today I started my 6 weeks of the biggest lost boot camp. I have set a reward of dinner/lunch with the bestie and a pedi just for getting through the 6 weeks. Im hoping this will really push my weight loss over the next 3 weeks so i can at least hit that 15 pound loss mark by the end of this group.

I wish everyone a great week!!

Woohoo! You better stick with it, I want my lunch & a Pedi! LOL

Hi Everyone! Sorry I have been MIA. I am a teacher and we went back to work on Thursday and then our weekend was packed. I am exhausted! I just read through some of the old posts and saw that a lot of us are going through a bit of a funk, count me in. I am still trying to stick within my calories (albeit loosely), getting daily walks with the baby (but need to back to the Shred, agree it is the best bang for the buck), drink my water and do my push ups and sit ups. This is the only thing keeping me accountable, thank you ladies and I will be more active after this week, but will checkin as much as I can this week.

7/11 159.6
7/18 156
7/25 155.4
8/1 154.3
8/8 155.9
8/15 155.9 (NOTHING!)

On labor day I am starting a new thread called Labor Day Shredders... I have to do another round of the shred. With out the 30 day structure i start slipping and it is definitly the best bang for the buck. Id love to have you on board!

good morning!! Awesome job to all the losers!!! lets keep up the good work! i have had minimal progress on the scale, but im hanging in!! i never thought weight loss would be this tough!!

KristynStephens15

I have always heard its MUCH harder to lose the weight once you get closer to your goal... I didnt have a clue it would be this hard!!! I really hope me nursing is partly to blame like it was with my first son, and once i dry up these last 8lbs will be gone... So discouraging... Havent worked out since Thursday, so annoyed and mad at myself. Ok the pitty party is over now.

Hope you all have a wonderful tuesday!!!

Good Morning ladies! I weighed in at 166 this morning; I can't believe I'm only 6lbs away from my mini-goal. I probably won't reach it by Labor Day but I think this is awesome anyway. I want to reach it by my birthday in mid-September.

Everybody so far is posting really awesome progress this week. That's amazing! You guys are really keeping me motivated by your success. I am currently fighting shin splints(from running) as well as a twisted ankle from Friday's Navy workout. It seems like my body is not happy with me trying to force it to lose weight I am trying my best to eat healthy & "take it easy" while by body is healing. It is very difficult b/c I use my exercise calories in order to eat more food And.... I LOVE to eat!:blushing:

Have a wonderful week ladies!!! We've got two more weeks to finish this challenge strong! We CAN do this!!!!

Hello dear mommies! I have been in the DL for the past week or so, I was on vacation since last Friday 8/12 and have been enjoying the time off with some out of town guests and my precious 5 year old. Today was a very emotional day, I dropped my son off at his first day of Kindergarten. He of course did great and I was a mess in the car thinking how much I dislike my job as I miss so much of whats going on with him... then after that emotional morning, I headed over to the school office to discuss after school services... GOOD LORD it's expensive and I guess I make "too" much money to qualify for reduced fees.. what a freaking mess!!!! anyways, I just need you ladies to continue to provide me with such great support! in the midst of this madness, I stopped at McDonald's for breakfast, yet even more crying when I realized the junk I was putting in my body.... tomorrow I will post my weigh-in and I will be hoping on my treadmill tonight to vent these frustrations out!!! tomorrow, back to grind at work and wishing every minute that I could pick my son up, do homework together, do some extra curricular activities instead of paying some after school to provide him with that support.... :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :brokenheart: :brokenheart: :brokenheart:

Im sorry for such a post, I just needed someone to listen........ sigh

KristynStephens15

Oh Mimi I feel for you!!! My son starts preK on the 7th, and we get to pay thru the nose for it because we "make too much" Im going to have one heck of a time on his first day. How do our babies grow so fast Feel better Mama!!!

Becreed

Hi ladies!! Looks like some great losses this last week! Sorry I have been MIA. I will check back in this evening after work but wanted to get my weightloss in. I don't know how I did it, but I lost 2 + lbs.!! I too have not been exercising, but I guess it's the food?!

You ladies rock!!! Great weigh ins!! Kristyn i am so happy you broke the 150's :happy: i now know it is possible!!! Mimi, it has to be rough sending your little one into the world :sad: stay strong! I am still teter totering at 154-155 no change...but ladies i really think its me...i am happy until i remember my weight loss goals, lol! i eat at a maintainence level, if i want to break this plateau i have to eat less, point blank...my workout is not strong enough to eat 1800 calories and lose..i can maintain, but not lose..sighhhhh...ugh; harsh reality! either workout more or eat less..ill let you know what i decide...and by the way...the weekly challenge wasnt mentioned, so i will make one up......no food after 9pm monday -friday....is that to harsh?:devil: lets do it mommies!

KristynStephens15

Nope not harsh at all! That is a good one! Cuz i find myself wanting to munch around then, maybe this way Ill think of you guys and pass on snacks!!
