    Whoohooo!!! Maybe all I needed was to take a bit of a break! Well, and some Pumpkin Pie. I'm *sure* that's what did it for me. :wink:

    Great job!!! Pie definitly counts as a "diet" food. In moderation of course :wink: And I agree, sometimes we just need to let our bodies rest a bit. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!!!

    Here's my standing for last week's challenge:

    Cardio: 7points
    Strength: 9
    Food: 2, I completely failed on the protein challenge!! The only way I would get it, is if I went by the link that was posted. Going by my macros, I failed BIG time!!
    Emotional: 2, I stayed off the scale all week, YEAH! The first two days were the worst, after that I was mostly okay with it.

    And here is my weigh-in:
    Week 3: 130
    Up 1 lb this week, but I'm not really worried about it, amazingly! I'm on week 2 of a new lifting program, and I can already see a difference in the tone in my arms and calves, maybe a little in the ab area (might just be wishful thinking?) My muscles have been sore lately, and sore muscles means water retention. Water retention means, muscle growth, and thats my goal, to build more muscle.
    Staying off the scale this week was probably a really good thing, I need to remember that the scale doesn't tell the whole story, only a small part of it. What I see in the mirror and how my clothes fit are just as important (maybe more) than a number on a scale. I think I might try to stay off the scale again this week? Maybe.....

    Hi Shawn,
    What program are you on? I am starting to focus more and more on strength and toning and since you seem to be the resident expert (at least in my eyes!) I'd appreciate any advice you have to offer. Great tip on the sore muscles equation.I did not know that sore muscles meant water retention. Which would explain why when building muscle the numbers on the scale don't always seem to match my level of effort. Truthfully, this is part of what has always scared me off in the past. Well, that and strength and toning is HARD! lol!

    Starting weight: 258
    Starting MM weight: 241.3
    Week 1 weight: 239.4
    Week 2 weight: 237.2
    Week 3 Weight: 236.6
    Weekly +/-: 0.6
    Total loss: 21.4

    I got all 25 points this week, luckily i got the rest of my protein in over the weekend, that was a toughy! I even managed to keep myself off the scale the entire week, it was nerve racking and I did not like it! Its a whole lot easier for me to maintain if I weigh atleast every other day! Not very impressed about my loss this week, but its better then nothing! Getting sick...but I'll do my best to rock it out with this weeks challenges!

    Start of M/M: 149lbs
    Week 1 09/28: 149lbs
    Week 2 10/05: 148lbs
    Week 3 10/12: 149lbs
    Gained: 1lb

    Not too too disappointed with myself. I didn't do great at all this last week. and yesterday was a disaster. I'm just not feeling motivated anymore. I dont know whats going on. Need to get back on it. I'm not as dedicated like I was before when I first began my weight loss journey. I've been really busy with school and just everything else. Need to do some changing with my motivation. Well I have a mini goal set as of right now. The Warrior Dash is set to be here on Nov 19th & 20th. I'm going to sign up for it and do the best I can. Its a crazy 3 mile obstacle course so I need to train for it. I have convinced my hubby to do this with me. I'm so excited that he actually agreed to do it with me.
