Ok Ladies..
I've updated the chart and I'm about to email it out. You will see we had SEVERAL miss weigh ins this week. A couple have told me why..(Rynatnat..) but the others are in hiding! haha..
I'm leaving for vacation today...
Will try my best to be good. This is the FIRST real vacation I've had in 6 years!!! AND..only the 2nd time in 2 whole years I will have been away from my little boy. Well deserved, I think....haha... I will miss my little man, but he will have a blast with the grandparents and it will be good for me and the hubby to reconnect.. We are excited. Ok..LOVE TO YOU
I've gotta finish packing!

Here is the chart. Let me know if there are any errors. I changed the format a little. I don't think I can fit all the weeks from Sept 1 to Nov 24 on here, so what I did was put the starting weight, previous weight, and current weight. I still have the other document saved if you like that better with the dates. I can see if I can make it work, but I thought I'd see how this looks. It also shows the loss for the week and the total loss since the beginning.

Sorry I've been MIA - it's been crazy busy since just before our little HM Vacation. We decided we can't really consider it our HM since TOM started WAY early & decided to plague me an extra week! On the bright side, it was nice enough to hold off on the bloating while we were at the beach so at least I looked good & was semi-confident wearing a bikini in public! Ended up also getting rid of 2 older bikini's cuz they were too big :happy: I did not get a new one tho since I decided I need to firm up a bit more & next time we go to the beach I hope to be at that point :happy: So we took our few days off as just that - a few days off & our first vaca in almost 1 year. We're hoping to get away for a bit later this year when TOM cooperates for a real HM
So anyways: My updates - did not do so well on the last challenge due to vaca, TOM & just general craziness! But I plan on kickin' it on this weeks'. So, in the spirit of the Butterballs, also borrowing the format :happy:
10-6 Thurs: I was almost under & then added in a bunch of Wholegrain cheese puffs & went over by about 100! 1367 calories burned doing cardio & strength training AM/PM workouts: approx 50 mins strength: 16 cups water
10-7 Fri: I was under calories, just couldn't eat more since I needed to fast for a religious holiday. Did burn 1130 calories doing cardio & strength training in the AM: approx 60 mins was strength training: 14 cups water
10-8 Sat: No exercise due to fasting: ate 1 meal which was dinner to break the fast, pretty sure it took me over my 1200 cals for the day as I made Chocolate Chip Cookie brownies for desert & ate 2 1/2 plus my Mum's Ginger Spice Cake: I'd estimate water at about 8 cups since I couldn't drink much during the day & didn't want to go on a binge once the fast ended :laugh:
10-9 Sun: I'll post update later: so far I'm planning on being under cals. Will be going to gym after work with Hubby & plan on pumping upper body so that should be some good strength training :happy:

No weight change for me: but am noticing some serious firming & muscle building so I'll take my NSV over the scale any day0 -

The table looks great!!! thanks! Congratulations to all who have lost weight! Special shout out to Mariam who lost #3! Since she is in her maintenance range, that is amazing!
Happy Yom Kippur Nat! (I am assuming this is correct)
Have a blast on the vacation Tausha!!!
Here are my updates! Yesterday evening I had a headache that was so bad. I realized that I had a headache really bad about a month ago and I have decided to start keeping track. It may be hormonal. I have not had a menses in 10 months but that doesn't mean that I might not be having cyclical hormonal fluctuations.

I went to the gym for the first time in 2 months. I mostly exercise at home and have been considering dropping the gym membership because I'm just too lazy to go. I'm not sure why I resist it so much. I feel so much better when I go!

Tausha--have a great time on vacation!
Tara/Miriam--I started out as an ICU RN, then was ICU/PCU clinical manager, then PCU director...my floor shut down and I decided to get out of management and I liked dealing w/ the e-charting so much, I moved to IT&S. Yes, we use Meditech. We may be changing in a couple of years, but I work at an HCA facility (OU Medical Center in Oklahoma City), so any changes take a loooong time since the corporation is so huge.0 -
I survived the very unheathy meal my mother in law prepared. I asked her to leave one chicken breast out of the flour mixture and the fry daddy. I added a little seasoning and baked it in the oven. I had mostly steamed peas on the side and only one tablespoon each of Bob Evans Mashed Potatoes and Macaroni. Total = 329 Calories. And while they are having triple chocolate cake with frosting, I am having a Fiber One Oats & Choclate Bar, 140 Calories. This is a big step for me.
KAE- THAT IS AWESOME!!! GOOD FOR YOU!! That is some serious planning & will power!! More power to you!! I was thinking when you first wrote that you weren't going to go- "hey, that's a good way to get out of going to my mother-in-laws!!!" LOL
Having a good week- I find it interesting that I usually do a JM workout 3-5 times a week- but the week our challenge is to do ST- the weather is BEAUTIFUL in Chicago(land)- so I am more interested in going out for a run!! I will get in another "ripped" before wednesday, so i will meet my goal of ST for the week!!
Keep up the good work everyone:)0 -

Thurs: Lets see..I did Turbo Jam with Charlene (?) and did my jog, so that brings me to 860 calories and 12 cups of water.
Fri: I did a 30 minute walk, and did Jillian's No more trouble zones, so I think I made it to the strength training goal for the week, but that gives me no excuse to give it a few more rounds..maybe do a few rounds on the DVD instead, since it was really tough. I burned 745 calories today, so far at 6 cups of water..still not even 5pm yet, sure to get in a few more glasses.
Sat: Wow, today was a bust. I jogged today which felt good, but I blew it on my calories and had a binge..I'll aim to eat light the next few days (kinda like what u did Tara) drink a ton of water and maybe ill get lucky to maintain or a small loss...sorry team, i know i let you down. indifferent
Sun: Was recovering from binge, lots of exercise, and drinking 15 cups of water. Also did another session of JM's NMTZ.
Mon: Overall damage from binge was .4. I was worried it would be worse, so I'm pretty happy! Today, was all cardio. Running & Walking. Overall, it was a good day. My light eating plan didn't go as well, but still managed to stay under goals.
