    I'm here. Been very busy with work (my bosses think I'm an army of 1!). Doing pretty well. Had an off weekend last week, but determined to stay good this weekend! Weight down to 144.8!! :D:D

    Whatever I'm doing, it is NOT working. I GAINED 2 LBS. THIS WEEK.

    :(

    I am SO frustrated, it isn't even funny. I ran 5km every day last week (at lunch), except Thursday, when I did bikram hot yoga for 90 minutes. Friday, I didn't do anything, and Saturday morning I did my 75 minute long-cardio step class. I was UP 2 LBS.

    Huh??

    I am SO determined to shed this 10 lbs. by September, it isn't even funny. I'm going back to JUST having a protein shake in the evening. That's it. If I do that for 2 weeks, I figure I'll have "shocked" my system and be down about 6-7 lbs., leaving me with just 3 or so to go. Help me out, girls - I'll need your IMMENSE SUPPORT over these next 2 weeks, because I will feel H-U-N-G-R-Y.

    :(

    I'm here! I've been working out like crazy 5+ times a week with a good walk/jog. I'm getting to the point where I am jogging more than I am walking and that makes me feel good. Tomorrow (Monday) is my weigh-in day so I will post results of that. I am HOPING to be down 10lbs since joining the group. As of last Monday I was down 8lbs and I had a good week this last week so I hope I get to that 10lb mark tomorrow.
    I hope everyone else is doing well too and kicking butt in the gym!

    Last week was a good week, down nearly 4 lbs. (But, because I was up 2 lbs the week before, MFP only records it as a "1 lb." loss!). This week will be very good, too. I am scheduling 1.2 lbs. per week weight loss. But, if I play it right (i.e. continue with my regular exercise regime), I should be able to get 2 lb. down this week. I don't think I'll get 15 lbs. down by end of September, but I should be at around 10 lb. loss, which is just as good....I don't mind working through October to dump the last 5 lb (if I decide that is necessary!)
  • Ok Ihave been on the slippy slope for the last few weeks need something to bring me in line. Count me in. I am sure you will look fab anyway, happiness does that.

    This group is HILARIOUSLY TERRIBLE!! Pile on and then no follow through...come OFF IT!! Where are you guys/gals at?? It's gonna be September in less than a WEEK?????????????

    For me, I think I will be down 7 lbs. I do not think I'll hit 10 lbs (I was only aiming for 10 lbs)....but, hope to hit that by end of September!!
