Today (12/12) 208

No loss, but it's kind of what I expected, since I didn't do as much exercise last week and kinda slacked off on eating right a few days. BUT - I ran my first 5K in 8 years on Sunday, so I'm not letting a little scale non-compliance get me down.

253.6 +2.2lbs...well went on vacation and didnt do too bad plus my AF is acting odd....so I am sure most of it is due to water retention bc of that -.-.

I had to go back and check my numbers from last week and even though I weighed myself twice last week to be sure of the gain it must have been sodium bc from my gain last week to today I have lost 8 lbs. Weight today is 217! I can't remember the last time I was in the the 200 and teens!!! I'm so happy and only a pound and a half away from my 25 lb challenge goal!! Good day for me!

Today = 193# ARGGH!!! I am not surprised, though. Working on a couple major home projects. I'm getting my runs in, but having a hard time planning food.

I clearly won't make the challenge goal, but am really glad to have it here to keep me more on task that I otherwise would be!

My boobs are starting to look deflated i'm so sad. i've always had nice boobs! Skin is getting loose, and yucky looking. I love being smaller and fitting into smaller clothes. But looking in the mirror naked makes me want to cry. Because I know I'll be just as unhappy with the way I look as I was before, the only difference is I'm smaller, but still want to gag!!

JimieLou

I weighed in at a whopping 236 this week....I didn't know I ate enough to gain 6 pounds....really really really disppointed!!!

Steffi330

Weigh in today! 219.5 Up from last week but same as mid week weigh in so I'm sure its not from Christmas dinners. I think its TOM!!! Anyways 6 days of the challenge left. Lots of water and exercise and a lot of prayer! I can do this! 4 lbs to meet the challenge!

Alisha, Change your mindset! For one your beautiful on the inside and your getting healthier and stronger and will be able to do things with your son that you couldn't of even dreamed of doing before. Besides, Your not a nudest right? So most people aren't going to see you with your clothes off so just enjoy feeling good in your clothes wearing a smaller size. People will compliment you all the time. Don't be so hard on yourself! Live life! We can't change the damage we did to ourselves but we can enjoy the changes we're making! You are Awesome! And I thank you again for starting this challenge, we got this!

253.6, I have lost 15lbs which I am proud of, but I am with drawing from the challenge bc I am going to push it into high gear again once the New Year happens. I am doing great at maintaining and I plan to continue on this journey. I wanted to lose 25lbs with this challenge and at first that was my main focus, but since then I decided I dont mind losing at a slow pace, bc it is slowly teaching me the discipline I need to be healthy and maintain. You guys are doing great and I am so ecstatic for you! Maybe I will defeat the next challenge! =D

JimieLou

I didn't lose a darn thing . I'm still at the gain from last week. 236. I'm super frustrated.....but I guess on the plus side at least I didn't gain any more over Christmas..
Luckily, I have a week off from school so I can hit the workouts harder than normal.

I gained several pounds this week due to Christmas and my focus on home projects. While I've lost a few pounds since the beginning of this challenge, I haven't done a very good job. I've thought a lot about where I'm at - 45# gone, but with only 10# or so in the past year. The rest was lost in the year before. I've increased my running dramatically, though, and that was my priority. I haven't found a balance yet between eating right/enough to feel energized for running and keeping it under control to drop the pounds. I've done well for short periods of time, but it's not intuitive at all.

I feel like I need to refocus, appreciate what I've done so far, but stop giving myself so much credit for it. After all, I still have another 40# to go just to get into a 'healthy' range. So, that's what I'm doing. I'm starting over, pretending I've never weighed more than I do now, and focusing on getting rid of these 40#+ in the next year. I know why I'm still carrying it around and it's been with me a long, long time. Now, it's time to go and I'm ready for it!

I wish you all the best at hitting your 25# on this challenge!
