My Starting Weight as of August 28 was 211.5
This week's weigh in 210.0
Goal for September: 200
Total Loss so far in September was 1.5 lbs
Not where I wanted to be, but at least the scale went DOWN!!!
Goal's the same, to include more strength training, about 2-3 times a week. Still have Jillian Michael's 30 day shred and this cheesy DVD called Sexy arms. It's a womens workout for arms and it's obnoxious. I don't want it anymore, I have it memorized. A descent arm workout.
My eating has been off this weekend, so I need to get back on track. I did run a 5k today, so I needed a little extra protein. Forcing myself off the scale, so hope I'm on track.0 -

Starting weight for September : 135lbs
This week's weigh in 134lbs
Your goal for September 125lbs
Total Loss so far in September 1lb
How you are doing on your personal goal : I'm actually eat a lot better and before I reach for a beer I'd stop and think about going over my calories intake goal. I'm also more actives and getting better on the mountain bike. The guys are getting worried that I will pass them uphill so I'm going to switch to my heavier full suspension bike.
Whoot! :happy:0 -
Starting weight for September: 199.6

Your goal for September: 195
Total Loss so far in September: -3.4
How you are doing on your personal goal: Not great. I wanted to do 4 hours walking/biking, but only got in 2.5
Any comments you'd like to make: I have been in a lot of pain this week, ended up in the ER yesterday and was pumped full of saline solution and then diagnosed with shingles. I'm attributing my weight gain to yesterday's IV fluids because I did well with my calorie intake all week. Once I can shake this illness, I look forward to getting back on track.0 -

Starting weight for September :146.6
This week's weigh in :145.6
Your goal for September : 140
Total Loss so far in September : 1.0
How you are doing on your personal goal : not that great with weight loss but I have been doing very well with the amount of walking/exercise during the week and weekend. I walked 17.9 miles last week (9/4-10/11) and plan on hopefully doing 20miles this coming week.
Any comments you'd like to make: I found that if I exercise during any mood, I inevitably will be happy or at least content when I am done walking. Walking also allows me to either focus and talk things through with myself or just let me faze out and enjoy some good music. I recommend walking to anybody who wants to get outdoors and enjoy the last bit of summer.0 -

Weightloss to date (9/1 - 9/12): 2 lbs
I weighed everyday except Saturday.....couldn't stay away from the treadmill. I stayed within my calorie range since I didn't workout. I did eat 2 donuts last night cause I really wanted some sugar, but they were still in my calorie range. As I opted for those instead of a meal. Wasn't a good (healthy) choice, but hit my craving. This time, I will try really hard not to weigh until next Monday.0 -

How you are doing on your personal goal- Not so great. I follow this pattern of as soon as I show some type of progress I revert back to my old ways thinking the food cant affect me. Also I have slacked majorly on my exercising due to crazy shifts at work but I refuse to let a different schedule hold me back! I am off to steal, I mean politely borrow, my dads gym pass and kick my own butt in the gym for the next months!! ... I am buckling down this week & will show a loss next week! I promise!!!
