    Your kidding me right? Didn't you lose like 6 lbs?

    I had a huge gain the week before; so I was just relosing pounds I had already lost (I had went up so much due to all the jogging/walking in week two--mass water retintion)--once i stopped the walking/jogging, I lost it all... plus then I lost a couple extra pounds too. I had a decent week with weight loss due to those couple pounds, but i really dont feel like it because the moment i lost two pounds, the next challenge was walking again, so now i went from 262 to 266, again.. im getting super frustrated. Ive been fighting to get into 250's for a long time, and then I fought really super hard to lose my first 50lbs, and now im right back at having lost only 48lbs.. ;-( ;-(

    Ok I can see why that is frustrating - all I can say is that it's still progress you are headed the right way you are just doing a 2 step dance to get there. Your body is getting healthier and the scale will catch up later. (stupid scale)

    I've been here 150days and not lost any weight half the time I've been here..sometimes a month, sometimes 3weeks, 2 weeks, 1...whatever..just remember to look at ur overall lose, and not at weekly loss.

    Im fussy too, but its not hard to eat healthy, so maybe im not as fussy as you? Idk what u like or not...but try things u don't like as much in different ways..like I don't like raw brocolli unless it has ranch, but ranch isn't the best for you, but I love brocolli steamed or cooked in stir frys, etc. I hate lima beans...ok, I hate most beans...but lima beans I add into my rice, and season with cayenne, pepper, garlic, fake salt (nu salt), and I love lima beans this way.. or find veggies you love, and stick to them...if u like carrots, then have them raw with lunc or as snacks and steamed for dinner time.. if you like, say spinach, and that's about it, then use it in salads, ommelettes, chopped up in rice, homemade pizzas, on sandwichs...all sorts of things... just try to incorporate small amounts of veggies into foods and eventually it will become natural to u.. fruit is pretty easy..apple with peanut butter for breakfast, variations of fruit as snacks, berries on top of things like pancakes, salads, etc. Switching bread/flour items to whole wheat items is healthier, not all fiber cereals taste like crap, fiber one honey clusters is good, kashi go lean crunch tastes like golden puffs kid cereal... find brands u like in various items, before u rule out those types of items

    Hey guys, just wanted you to know that I'm still here. 3 girls got fired at work so my boss made me take their shifts...

    I'm tired and I'm flip flopping between weight loss and weight gain (I have to eat at work when I work a double), it's hard because my restaurant doesn't have the nutritional info available...which is apparent because I haven't eaten butter in like 4 months, then I ate one of the egg white omletes and it was cooked in a ****-ton of butter, like, what's the point of that?!?!

    My boss just hired 3 more girls but they're in training so I'll probably still be doing this crazy schedule in a week or two.

    The point of this is, I will be on MFP every day before work to check messages, etc, and I'll try to get on when I get home, but I'm still here (just less often) than I was before. I hope everyone is doing great!

    Heya guys, unfortunately with much consideration I have decided to drop out of the challenge. I wish you guys well and hope you all do great. Time is the problem for me, so I wish you all the best of luck.

    Sucks about ur foot, rest it up and hopefully it will get better...if not, maybe the challenge will be arms/abs or something..? Who knows :-)

    I didn't get anywhere near completition..been hella sore& tired all week. That sleep apnea study totally screwed me on tuesday, been exausted ever since. I did manage to lose 1.2lbs, thought id have to report a gain again. I always lose a ton during TOM so next weigh in should be purdy good for me ;-)

    OK - so earlier this week I had got down to 191. but last night I went nuts and ate 4 pieces of pizza (with exercise points) but this morning I had gained 4 lbs.
    So sorry about the crappy weigh in team. This helps me hold a grudge against the all-evil pizza.

    Hey everyone! I'm still around and weighed in at 206.2 this week (a -1.7 loss) which I'm happy with since I had gone on a five day vacation in there. :smile:

    I didn't manage to complete the challenge tho, an old knee injury flared up, so it was RICE for me for 1/2 the week. Its feeling much better now, so this week I should be back on track.

    Can't wait to see what this week's challenge is. :happy:

    Well, I'm back (kinda) the new girls are training this week so they'll start working shifts next week!


    I know we are waiting for the new challenge, but don't worry no one will be penalized for it being late.



    Anyways....how are we all doing (those that are still here) we need to step up our game plans for the next few weeks, we keep losing people so we're going to have to find a way to keep this interesting for everyone to stay...any ideas?

    Thanks for the challenge, Athena! Its a great one. And this week I'm bound and determined to compete the challenge because I haven't finished one completely in two weeks. (Runs and hides. :embarassed: )

    I'm going to be tracking Calories, Fat, Carbs and Sodium for this one and my personal challenge will be to do 4 weight exercises a day.

    Today, I should be in the green on everything (after I get back from Zumba that is) and I did sit-ups, push-ups, triceps dips and triceps extensions.

    (I know it doesn't start till tomorrow, but I figure might as well start today even if it doesn't count - its all good for me!)

    Go Team Explosives! :explode:

    Thanks Athena, for putting something together. :laugh:

    I am headed out of town in the morning and will be gone for 5 days at the mercy of a Paula Deen type cook. My attitude right now is so horrible - you can't imagine. So I am gonna stop writing now before I get into trouble.

    Go Team :explode:

    Hey,

    Thanks Athena, for the challenge!! Its going to be quite tough as ive missed out today (seriously been to busy to keep count) so i will have today as my cheat day if that is ok?

    Im going to make my mini goals to be exercise and water :) as i always start the day with everything sorted then it just goes to the wayside lol.

    Already made my bento lunch up for tomorrow :)

    Also its not looking good on the weight front, i should be losing but its my TOM so i seem to of put on a pound/2 :( Im really hating this yo yo weight loss thing :(

    Hope everyone is ok
