    Challenge: The Great Outdoors!

    Well, tomorrow I'll be getting my weekly challenge completed. I'm going to the pool with a friend! This will be the first time that I've not been nervous about wearing a bathing suit in public in YEARS! I'm actually looking forward to it.

    Here is my new suit....
    bathingsuit2.jpg

    This happens to be a very flattering picture. It actually looks like I've got some nice curves. From the front however I'm more rectangular (how I dream of having a defined wasit one day).



    Reflection: Summer Time

    My biggest challenge in the summer is having NO schedule. As a teacher I am used to being on a very consistent schedule during the school year and I find it very easy to plan my meals and workouts accordingly. During the summer, I have no schedule. My kids are with me all day and I'm usually at home which mean that the pantry and fridge are with me all day too. It has been tough some days to stay committed. Thankfully I have a very supportive husband and we've been workout buddies. We do our P90X workouts when he comes home on his lunch break (good think about being the boss...you can take a long lunch). Unfortunately when he works out of town (like this week) then I'm back to doing it solo and some days I really have to talk myself into being productive. Ultimately I have to remember that I am coming to the end of my "weight-loss" journey but then I'll be entering into the whole new world of "maintenance", which means that I'll still have to workout and watch what I eat. Hoping to be in the 120s tomorrow!

    Today's weight : 198.5

    As I am going on holidays tomorrow and don't know if I will have access to a scale, I am reporting my weight for this week early.

    I have tentatively entered Onederland! I say tentatively as I am being realistic, I plan to have a good time and relax and enjoy my time away, but I also plan to be as active as possilble, and am taking my Zumba DVD with me as well! lol So I'll see what the old scale has to say at our weigh in next week :tongue:

    Current weight (as of today): 198.5
    Challenge Starting Weight : 206

    I'm in the same boat as you in terms of scheduling in the summer. At first I thought it would be great because I wouldn't have to worry about finding time to workout but now I have almost too much time on my hands and it is so much easier to just lay by the pool :tongue:
    I love your swimsuit by the way, very retro feel! You look fab!

    WEEK 7!
    very impressed with my loss this week, though think it may have something to do with the fact I was very ill on Tuesday!
    Decided against the detox as trying to still get over bug!
    Hope you all have fab losses this week and thanks for the wonderful chart again!

    170.4 pounds this morning. Down from 171.4 yesterday. Hopefully, next week I'll have another loss. Hang in there everyone; summer seems to be the hardest time to lose.

    Without even knowing it - I handled this one! I love the pool and go there for at least an hour every chance I get!!!

    Reflection: Summer Time

    I can't afford a vacay right now (BOOOO!), but I've been to plenty of parties this summer and rather than feel down about the fact that I may not be able to feast on the yummies being served, I offer to bring some food. This way, I can have something that I know fits within my calories AND I can show people that eating good can TASTE good, too!

    Well I've put down the cookies and headed back to the gym so my weight is moving in the right direction again, but I'm not going to make my mini-goal. I've revised my goals to what I think are more realistic numbers.

    Challenge: The Great Outdoors! I've upped my running outside from 3-6 miles a week to 12-15 miles a week and I'm thinking about getting a jogging stroller.

    Reflection: Hmm, well, I didn't handle the past couple of weeks well. I slacked off on my diet (birthdays, parties, BBQs, vacation) and on exercise (ran outside 1-2 times a week, but stopped going to the gym for resistance training). Luckily the staff at my gym took notice and started hounding me this week, and since my husband has jumped on the diet (if not the exercise) wagon, I climbed back aboard too. My next big challenge food-choice wise will be the week of August 15th when my parents come to visit; my dad always makes pancakes for breakfast and cookies after dinner, arghh, maybe I should get them a hotel room. :P

    I have been outside a lot this week. While I watch my kids in the pool, I do lunges and jumping jacks, sometimes I jog. We went to the beach. I bbq-ed (in the rain!), sat on the porch and gossiped with the neighbors, now we are going to wash my car.
    I haven't really faced any challenges. Summer is full of great fruits and veggies, so I've been ok. This Saturday I go to Amherst College to pick up my daughter. It will be the first time eating out since I started my journey. That I imagine will be tough, but it has been 130 days and I haven't home over. I will try to make the right choices and hope for the best!

    Gained this week. I'm hoping it's jsut from TOM. I'll have to wait and see how I do next week. I'm a little discouraged right now, so I changed my goal weight. I'm hoping to just reach Onederland by the end of this!! But to keep my spirits high, I have an NSV for this week: My friend who I haven't seen for a couple of months saw my pictures on facebook, and said how great I'm looking. That made me very happy =)
