    This group NEEDS some more communication so write...

    1. What you would change about last week and WHAT you are doing about it this week
    2. Your goal for this week (can be anything)
    3. Fun fact about you



    I posted my weigh in earlier today. Stayed the same this week, still at 266.
    1. I didn't work out at ALL last week, going to get back on the treadmill again tomorrow.
    2. Had my cheat day today. No more this week!!! *fingers crossed*
    3. I'm getting married August 25 (OMG, is that really only 10 days away??? LOL)

    I already posted my weight - I'm down 2.1 pounds this week.

    1. I only did weights 2x last week and I should do it 3x.
    2. I rarely eat veggies and I need to get them back into my diet. So I'm going to try to eat veggies at least every day this week.
    3. I love to read sci/fi fantasy books and have been known to stay up until dawn reading a good book.

    I previously posted my weight but I am up 2 pounds from last week. I agree we need more communication and we NEED a spreadsheet or something to compare!!!

    1. I ate horribly (and enjoyed myself) on my vacation. This week my goal is to get by butt back in gear and work hard.
    2. My goal this week is to take my vitamin EVERY day!!
    3. Fun fact: I am a nursing student that graduates in December..................yayyy!!!!

    congrats on graduating soon...i just graduated last week so i know what you are going though!

    So this week I am 155.2 lbs. Yay!

    1. I would change my workout intensity.
    2. I am going to change the types of snacks that I eat. This is where I have a tendency to overeat.
    3. Fun fact: I start school this evening. Eeekk...I'm nervous :)

    what type of school did you start?

    I only used the info posted on the thread, so feel free to send me your info for this week and I'll update the chart.

    Hope it works....

    Great losses everyone :)

    I am exactly the same this week, which I am glad abut, been up all week, back in the 30's, Weigh in 139lb.
    SW139
    CW139
    GW122

    AggieCass, great idea.

    I would change how many 'treats' I had, there were way too many, will cut down this week.
    My goal is to do other exercise 4 days out of 7. I do shred everyday as well.
    Fun fact - I am actually addicted to MFP me thinks :D


    Caitmcwill - I did counselling too, loved it, my degree is in social work, but did loads of add on counselling, you will love it. I also find it amusing English and Americans spell that differently :)

    Trufflepig - loving the spreadsheet :)

    Thanks Truffle Pig for doing the spreadsheet. My GW is 245 and my SW was 274.

    The spreadsheet turned out great! Just one thing...my starting weight should say 173 instead of 174. I had originally posted 174 but then by the Monday weigh in I was at 173.
    Good news though...I have already lost one of the lbs. that I gained while on vacation. Scale read 174.6 today, YAY! Hoping to see it keep going down!
    Hope everyone has a great week!!

    1. What you would change about last week and WHAT you are doing about it this week
    Not much to change - I worked it real hard and had great results - like 3 lbs!! That's a lot for me. I was also out of town and took advantage of the spas cool classes - spinning and zumba.

    2. Your goal for this week (can be anything)
    Work out 5 days a week for an hour

    3. Fun fact about you
    I've got 3 kids. Twins that start kindergarten in 2 weeks and a little guy that will be 2 in Nov. I have a few jobs where I work from home. I am going to do this - down about 56 so far with another 20 or so to go.
  • Thanks for the info everyone, I've updated the chart. I'm still missing info from the following people:

    This week I have bee trying to gain on purpose, I am a strage one lol

    I figured as I am a bit stuck, I would eat anything this week and try again hard exta and see if it shocks me into losing. Wouldnt be suprised if I gained a little.
