I had a fantastic week, the extra calories burned to get the 500 a day have helped me out big time, my weight on Monday was 270 today I am so proud of myself I weighed in at 265, YAY me!! I finally feel like I can really do this! Oh and my Calories so far this week are 2004 over the last 4.5 days.0

Hiya. Here's the deal so far - not quite making the 500 a day, but this is excellent for me (I currently have a sports injury) so thanks for making the challenge and providing me with the motivation.
SW = 157.8
8/1 Mon - 337 burned
8/2 Tues - 302 burned
8/3 Wed - 438 burned
8/4 Thurs - 733 burned
Total burned so far = 1,810
Friday's weight = 156.8, I lost a pound!
Take care all. It's great to be purple! :flowerforyou:0 -
Finally noticed that TEAM PURPLE has it's own thread! Way to go, y'all!!0

I'm still not on the list either...
I had a 7lb loss on the scale today - which equaled around 5lbs after the 2lb gain I had last week....
my burn is sitting at 2565 so far this week! woot!! 0 -
looks like everyone is kicking some butt!!! I only lost a pd this week so I am at 208 but I have burned 2151 and I haven't logged today well cause I haven't done anything except chase kids. Feel free to friend request if we aren't already friends.0

Hey there Purple!
~whatshesaid~ DON'T give up! I gained last month from exercise, muscles holding fluid. I had a lot going on wrong. I was also dehydrated and had to increase my water intake to 80+ ounces a day and I wasn't eating my exercise calories back, so I was deep into starvation mode. It took 3 weeks for me to lose 0.4 lbs and I was happy to see that. So press on, it will happen.
~raynebow~ Did you read that? You too, press on. It WILL happen.
~YamRector~ Take care of yourself and good luck with your surgery!
~Rabbittrax~ WTG!
~stangma~ Klondike bars NOOOOOOOOOOOO
~susieoneill~ WTG!
~StacieKaiman~ Awesome loss!
Tish
To the gym for me tonight for some elliptical intervals. mmmm, mmmm can't wait!0 -
I actually GAINED 0.3lbs.. Here's hoping it's just muscle, my clothes aren't feeling any looser yet and i've been doing this for 3-4 weeks now, exercising at the gym, 30DS and TRYING to eat as well as I can without totally restricting myself to the point of misery
So far this plan to lose 20lbs before Oct 1 isn't working at ALL.
Looks like i'll have to just start eating salads with grilled chicken on them forever
How is your water intake? Sometimes when I dont drink enough water and I'm working out like crazy, my body soaks it up like a sponge and doesn't want to let it go. Lol0 -
Didn't lose any weight after all that hard work :grumble: But I did lose 1/2 inch in my waist which makes 1 inch total in 2 weeks. And that is really the most important thing. I could actually zip up my jeans. Still tight but at least wearable....standing up

NSV: two NEW pairs of capris that I bought for a Vegas trip in 2 weeks are too BIG!
On to week 2!0 -
