    whew.....took a day off from the gym. Super day outside watching my daughter at her rugby game. Even got a little tan. :glasses: My legs are feeling yesterdays workout and I just love that feeling. I took measurements and I am starting to finally lose some thigh. That seems to be the last place to lose besides my belly flap. I don't know if that will ever go, but I like to be optimistic. :love: looking through my rose colored glasses :laugh:

    I ate alot of sweets today, brownies, a quarter of a sub ( had to add 14 gms of sugar because of the whole wheat roll- that sucks !! ) and then we had stopped for ice cream.

    Hubby and son are at boy scouts overnight for a community service project, oldest son is having dinner with daughter at college and I'm stuck home with no one to play with and no vehicle to go out with. Anyone live near me and want to go out ?? Guess I'll have to clean the house and read a book. Not that I mind that, but I like to have options available.

    Babygurl- fantastic on all your challenges !!

    Sherrillg hope your knees are better and kepete welcome back , glad you found us again.

    Robin- I cut the acorn squash in half, remove seeds, place cut side down on baking sheet...bake in the oven for 45-60 mins at 350' . ( till it's tender ) I like to just eat mine with a little salt and pepper. Some people put brown sugar and butter in it. Just scoop it out with a spoon. I can eat the whole thing and alot of times I do. Pretty much the same for any squash... It cooks faster in the microwave, but I think it tastes better in the oven. You can also peel and boil squash to make soup. That is totally yummy. I haven't done a spaghetti squash yet , and that is supposed to be fantastic replacement for regular noodles. It scoops out just like pasta noodles... I have to remember to pick one up this week. Let me know if you try it.

    Tomorrow looks like another fabulous day to work out in the garden. Fall cleanup is a real chore here, so I'm sure I'll be burning some calories.
    Have a great night ladies !

That sounds good, and my hubby is willing to try it too. :noway: I am shocked , he usually doesn't want to try anything new. It was a beautiful day here in the Bluegrass state. Hope everyone had sunshine and a great day !!! :drinker:

    Welcome back Kepete,

    Best of luck to all weighing in today.

    I just had the week from hell, did not reach on my going to bed early, i think my meds might need adjusting, blood test in two weeks should resolve this issue. (I have hypothyroidism) and if the meds are out i get tired, grumpy and find it hard to concentrate.

    Did no grocery shopping last week so there was a lack of good food choices in the house, will be better this week, just made up a batch of veg soup and pasta sauce, so thats most lunches and dinners covered for this week.
    I have also found a yoghurt based ice cream mix that delicious, made up a batch with coconut milk,fresh pineapple and fresh mango, only 190 cal per very generous serving, yum yum.

    Busy week ahead, 2 registration evenings this week to try and get my daughter into the secondary school that she wants for next September. It is a first come first served admittance system for both schools, so hours of queuing ahead.

    Poor husband has "man flu" that's a mild cold to us gals, he has taken to the bed, so no help with the household chores today.

    Tonight is my last day of level 2 30 shred, not looking forward to level 3, still not liking exercise just see it as a means to an end, any ideas for how to incorporate exercise into a day where i feel selfish taking time out just for me. Classes outside the home are not an option, and the weather here is not conducive to going for a walk until next spring.

    Oh we did try a new food this week......... not a good one, a Rolo biscuit (95 cal each) they are so nice, they are now banned from ever entering this house again.

    well that's the week that was.
    Here's to a better one this week, see you tomorrow at weigh in.

    Samhradh,

    "Man flu"! LOL :laugh: That's a new one for me. I hope you feel better this week.

    Tomorrow is a big day. The recruiter told me it is the 'typical all day interview' [for software companies], but the scheduled is two hours in the afternoon. I think she forgot I don't need to write code samples. I've been researching the company and watching product demos, so I understand their business.

    Last week's challenge: squats (2x10 sets), bent leg crunches (less back strain), wall push ups, Pilates planks. The days I did work out, got in my floor exercises. Need to get back to more consistent exercise.

    This week's challenge: continue squats (2x10 sets), bent leg crunches (less back strain), wall push ups, Pilates planks.

    Posting my numbers and updating my ticker:

    Leila, good score on all those veggies, The Soup Sounds yummy.
    Krystel, best wishes with making your walking goal this month.
    Babygurl, good job with the exercise. I have found I am losing sizes even when not losing pounds because to exercise.
    Sherrill nice to see you back here. Good luck with your knees. You have made great progress too.
    Kepete glad you found us and great progress.
    Sam I sort of identify with your description of your week mine was a bit different too. Please take some time for yourself you will be a better Mom and Wife for it and better role model.
    Gwen, great progress and great job getting prepared for the interview. Best wishes tomorrow.
    I had a big meeting to set up and run Saturday morning and my sister came in from France Friday. Consequently Saturday night was a family dinner. I have been working temporarily Thursday mornings. Thursday evening was Open House/Curriculum night at my daughters school. So my routines were all messed up affecting exercise. At least my job is physically active and my meeting was too to some extent. I am glad the meeting is done. I made a few healthy dinners at the beginning of the week. I am hoping next week will settle down and I can get back to some sort of healthy routine. I have already planned a few healthy dinners. Thursdays my daughter has 2 dance classes so we either have leftovers or eat out. Anyways I am not planning on much of a loss tomorrow but hopefully soon after.
    So I will post tomorrow progress or no.
  • Sorry haven't been on here. Had some medical things rear their head and couldn't be here. Should be back now though and hopefully will be able to continue. Will post weight in the AM!!
    Thanks,
    Raven

    I'm over the moon this weekend as I lost 2.2 pounds this week and this time I felt like I deserved it. I worked really hard to eat right and exercise lots. So I'm now at 271.6 (272 officially).

    I will continue to make sure I bring at least one fruit and one veggie to work with me everyday. Of course, I'll continue the water - I really find I don't want to drink anything but water, now (ewww, soda tastes so gross - and I was like addicted to Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi.)

    But I really only have one goal this week and that is to lose at least 1.8 to bring me to that magical 50 pounds lost. Once I get there, I will feel that I've really accomplished something.

    It is a long weekend here (in Canada) for Thanksgiving, though, so I knew I'd be going over at least two days this weekend (and I did, both yesterday and today) so it is a lofty goal. But even though tomorrow is a holiday (we had our Thanksgiving dinner today), I plan to get right back on track tomorrow and really work hard until my next weigh in to make that goal.

    Oh, and the thing that I'm most thankful for this year, other than the obvious family, friends, health, home, etc., is finding MFP and becoming part of this community of support, motivation, and encouragement. We are truly all in this together. I hope you all have great successes this week and in the coming weeks.

    Well girls I'm in shock,
    Did not expect to pull 1.8lb this week, pleasant surprise, maybe I do need to eat back some of my housework calories, especially at the week end, as it's 2 days of full on chores that don't happen during the week.

    Now don't get me wrong I want to lose weight and sill have over 30 lbs to go, but I must make this a lifestyle change, the eating is going fine as mostly we still eat what was normal for us, I'm just more careful about portion control and have stopped cooking with butter, and for me i have excluded the cheap nasty but oh so yummy chocolate bars and bags of chips.

    How am I ever going to make physical activity a natural part of my daily life??? I am so different to the young girl i was, 25 years ago i was a amateur athlete in several sports, volleyball, badminton and swimming, and just for fun i was part of a touring synchronised swimming troop.

    It's good to see some of the old faces back with us, as a group of 50 i think we were aiming for 1000lb loss for Christmas, that would have been tough with only 16 regulars.

    So goals for this week:
    1. Bed by 23.00.
    2. No more than a deficit of 100 calories per day. hope I'm explaining this correctly, I mean eat back almost all of the exercise calories
    3. 7 days of level 3 30 day shred..

    Week 4 - 187.8 (Sep 12) goal for coming week GET EXERCISE
    Week 5 - 186.2 (Sep 19) . DITTO get off your *kitten*, & go to bed by 10.30pm sod the housework.
    Week 6 - 184.6 (Sep 26) GO TO BED
    Week 7 - 182.8 (Oct 3) half way to Christmas goal, happy days, still have to go to bed earlier.

    I am pretty satisfied with my progress this week. We went out of town for a Tae Kwon Do tournament, where my 8 year old daughter won her two matches. Leaving home is always a scary challenge for me because we are relatively new health food vegans and eating in restaurants can be daunting (especially for a family of 4). We did OK and we even found a Vietnamese Vegan Restaurant in Van Nuys CA. It was delicious and the chef was willing to prepare it per my request of "no oil". Here are my stats for the week:

    I have taken a cue from fellow Challenge members and being happy with my progress. I've exercised, eaten pretty well, and tried to stay on target. I know I need to keep my water up and will keep trying. I am not having as much success with my walking partners, but have asked another person to walk with me. I think I will challenge myself to get more than 6 hours of sleep - this is a really tough one for me.
    Thanks to all of you for your wonderful support! Having a group really DOES make a difference for me.

    Monday check in. I didn't lose yet. I posted yesterday about my busy week.
    1. drink more than 8 glasses of water a day - Yes most days.
    2. make healthy meals at home – Yes I did better and have meal plans for the week.
    3. start adding weight training in – Yes, I went twice last week and this morning.
    4. don't miss Zumba this week! - Friday I had to pick up my sister from France at the airport.
    5. get enough sleep - Yes.
    6. get a rest day from exercise once a week. Yes too many last week.
    7. I have a small part-time temporary job on Thursday morning so it is messing with my Wednesday running so I need to adjust. Had a weird week maybe I can address this better.

  • Hi everyone and sorry I have not been around on here for an age!!

    I wrote this a few weeks ago when I signed up :

    "SW 144 lbs (10 stone 4lb)
    CW 134 lbs (9 stone 7lb)
    would like to be 128lb for Christmas and stay that way! "

    I am actually at 129 lb!!! Thanks to some great support on MFP - special thanks to brobin who has encouraged me every day - thank you so much!!

    I have recently revised my goal weight down to 126lb now that I can see what I look like at 129lb, and am looking forward to making that well in advance of Christmas. I need to go and buy some new clothes for this winter :-)

    Although I am a brit and live in the UK i have just arrived in Canada today on a business trip and am shattered so will be heading to bed soon and will no doubt be awake in the early hours, when I intend to hit the (very small) gym in the hotel and burn some calories before the day starts for real!

    happy thanksgiving to all lovely Canadians out there!! Keep up the good work everyone!!
  • Week 9 - 262 (Oct 10)

    Well, down a little since last time I checked in. Had some medical problems and ended up in day surgery last week. Hopefully that's the last of the "surprises" for a bit and I can get back to logging in everything and slowly getting back to exercising next week. Plan for this week: get back to logging what I eat to help make better choices. AND Getting the ok to go back to exercising.
    Thanks for those of you who checked in with me :) It was very much appreciated.
  • Water has been hit and miss as has been the walking. Can only keep working at it! the weight loss is still going OK, but know I will have to step it up to keep it going.
    Keep up the hard work everyone.

    I am stuck! I know the only way I will loose is to excercise and here lately I have been stuck in a rut. My sweet hubby said he is going to start walking with me tomorrow. I am going to try and make more time for MFP as I need the motivation. Thanks to all of you for the motivation:)

    Still at 147.5 but I had TONS of NSVs so I can't complain. Water intake is good but physical activity could be better and plan to step it up this week. Everyone have a great week and keep up the good work!

    NSV alert ! While I was digging in my closet for something that fit a little better, I stumbled across a few pairs of pants I had put to the back of the closet ,( a few years ago mind you) , I tried them on , and THEY FIT !!! Size 14. I then decided to visit the Goodwill Store...for a few slightly used tops. ( Can't keep buying new ). I stumbled across a wool pea coat , brand new, with tags from J.C. Penney 159.99 for ,15.00 and best of all size L. No x in front of it !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Woohoo! What a treasure find to celebrate!

    Good morning Ladies !

    NSV - is a non scale victory :bigsmile: ...hunt them down and hang on to tight . Sometimes those are what gets you through when the numbers don't move..very important stuff !!

    188 - up 1.6 lbs this morning. I'm not going to get bummed. I ate dinner late ( 7:45 pm) and it was stuffed shells no less. :laugh: So I'm sure that's all it is. Been working out like a crazy lady at the gym and drinking oceans full of water. Lots of good stuff. Besides a 3 lb. loss the week before was just too much to really accept. Ah.... the rose color glasses come off. :blushing:

    Great job ladies...love to see some people coming back around. We're here for you .

    Have a great day everyone .
