Question of the Day- Day 35!!!


How do you feel your progress is going? Are you losing like you expected? Do you wish you were doing better?

**Me- I am at about 12 pounds lost in 5 weeks. I think that's pretty good and I feel like I am going at a pretty good rate however I did have my first mini goal set at 15 pounds by 9/2 which would be 6 weeks and I am pretty sure I am not going to lose 3 more pounds in a week! I am anxious to hear how everyone else is doing and if they are going at the rate they wanted and hoping to get some advice and pointers :bigsmile:

Right now my progress is slow and steady. When I first started trying to lose weight (in March), I was losing about 15 pounds a month. That has gradually slowed down and although I am still fighting to lose 10 pounds a month, I average about 6. I am still incredibly proud of myself and happy that I am at least still losing weight. Slow and steady wins the race! I feel like this is the second leg of the race and this is the part that is really testing my commitment. So far, in almost exactly 6 months I have lost 50 pounds. My goal is to lose at least 30 more and then to reevaluate. These next 30 pounds are going to be a lot harder than the first 50 but I'm ready for the challenge!

overall I think that I doing pretty good...
I had my goals set for the first two months at 20 pounds...I was able to do that!
this month I had my goal set at 8 pounds...I have only lost 2 so far...
but I know that I have not put in my all this month
I have done this many times before but this time I have enjoyed myself as well
I can't be too strict...I still have about 58 pounds that I would like to loose but taking
it month by month...who knows I might get down to 150 pounds and feel great
I would like to see another 25-30 off before christmas...
what I'm most proud of is if I have a bad day..the next day I get back on track
I never did that before...I feel great...I'm able to run with my boys
and that really what matters

"How do you feel your progress is going? Are you losing like you expected? Do you wish you were doing better?"

Overall, yes, I'm losing as expected. When I started out last year, I had 100 pounds to lose so dropping 1.5 to 2 pounds per week was no trouble. Now that I'm closer to goal, I'm really happy with averaging just under 1 pound per week.

My only disappointment has been with the last couple of weeks as I'm in a plateau. BUT considering I was on vacation and it was TOM and I started a new fitness program this week, I guess I should be happy that I didn't gain!! AND although the scale's still not showing a loss, I'm pretty sure it's going to happen next week. I feel like I've dropped all the water weight and my clothes are fitting better. Fingers crossed!

I think I'm doing pretty good I started MFP 4 weeks ago and within that time I've lost 15 lbs. I want to lose another 30 by Christmas, so that's what I'm concentrating on.

Well not really but I can only blame this lovely body of mine..... no really I don't have dates on my goals just for that reason and I'm still learning my body and how it works. When I started MFP I wasn't sure about this or that , then my logging was here and there so I can understand why l only lost 6lbs in almost 60 days - but 60 days ago I was 6lbs heavier....I made some changes which I think will lead me to my goals....I only record 2 a month same time and day - I am now logging in even if I go over - when I know there is going to be a overage I workout hard....planning and now I challenge myself to reach deficits during the week since I know my weakness is the weekned - that is what this progress has shown me and for that I AM HAPPY!!!!
