Weigh Day 3/7/12 :)

Options
Alrighty guys! You got through your first week!

Here's the information I need:

Starting weight -
Current weight -
Total weeks jumping jacks -
Total weeks water -
Best NSV (non scale victory) -
Comments/Thoughts -

Here's mine:

Starting Weight - 204
Current Weight - 200-204 (jumping up and down like I said)
Total weeks jumping jacks - 740 (yes, I did do that many. Wasn't too hard considering I've been doing the 30 day shred :)
Total weeks water - 19/56 (Awful water intake this week. But that's okay. Tomorrow is a new day and I promise to do better.)
Best NSV - My friend at school is a state championship runner. He took my phone today and ran, I successfully ran after him and got my phone back WITHOUT losing my breath :)) That made me really happy! I always lose my breath, and he is SOOO fast!
Comments/Thoughts - I'm not to happy with my results, my weight has stayed the same but 3/6/12 was a cheat day plus I'm retaining water from my workouts. Progress though!! Plus, I'm happy because my inches on my waist and hips have done down, my endurance for the 30ds has made progress, and because of my NSV! :)

:) How did you guys do?

REMEMBER: Whoever had the highest number for jumping jacks and whoever had the highest number for water intake get to be the Motivators of the Week! :D

Thanks so much for all of your participation! I'm looking forward to making progress this month with you guys!!

NEW IDEA: Whoever loses the most weight this month will be crowned "March Motivation Challenges Biggest Loser" :)

Can't wait to hear all your results so far! :)

    Hello, all! I'm new to this group and have very high hopes-this seems like just the place to be!

    Starting weight - 140
    Current weight - 136
    Total weeks jumping jacks - 2,500! (I'm not too coordinated, so I really fall back on my jacks with a sweat-pouring 500 (ten sets of fifty) five times a week)

    Total weeks water - 70
    Best NSV (non scale victory) - Today I ordered a banana instead of a chocolate chip muffin without thinking twice!
    Comments/Thoughts - I'm dropping weight very slowly, but I think I've put on muscle mass and that is thrilling. Don't tell anyone, but I'm breaking all the rules and have a goal to drop weight by prom!

    Sounds to me like you're burning fat and adding muscle mass, since you got yourself good and sore. Keep it up!

    SW: 168 lbs
    CW: 169 lbs
    Jumping Jacks: 40

    So I'm not happy!

    I had a tough week for dieting.

    My boyfriend and I both celebrated our birthday, so I made pies (and tasted whenever needed ;) ). On our party I had way to much to eat and drink. But also the next 2 days I had to much. My boyfriend was in a caraccident and although he wasn't hurt, I told myself this was a good reason for stress-eating. Normally I exercise more if I eat more to compensate, but I fell down the stairs saturdaymorning and running just hurts!

    All together I gained a little weight. I'm hoping I'm just retaining water and hopefully I will lose it again fast. At least I found my motivation back, so i'm positive that I will have lost weight next week. :)

    Jumping jacks: none, but been to the gym every other day (jumping jacks not for me but still getting in some exercise)
    Water: Not sure, failed miserably to keep track but will do from today onwards, motivation!

    Best moment was last night when my boyfriend ordered pizza, I stuck to my original plan for a roast sweet potato with beans and salad, and enjoyed it!

    Only began my weightloss journey on Sunday so a pound in 4 days ain't so bad! :)

    Thanks for keeping up the motivation!

    Startine weight- 181
    Current weight- 180
    Jumping jacks- I really didn't count but I did at least 300
    Water- minimum of 8/day (also didn't really keep track of overage but luckily for me, drinking water has never been an issue)
    Best NSV- getting up yesterday at 5:30 a.m. to go to body pump after major car trouble on Monday (my normal gym day). I am so not a morning person but I know I need the exercise!

    Comments: Everyone seems to be doing a great job! I also like the addition of the NSV- there are so many victories outside of the scale and, as I think we all know, the scale doesn't always tell the whole story!

    Starting weight (for the challenge)- 213 lbs
    Current weight - 210.5 lbs (yesterday's weight)
    Total weeks jumping jacks - 0
    Total weeks water - 40 oz
    Best NSV (non scale victory) - staying under my calories every day. Oh, and my clothes look a little better I think. :)
    Comments/Thoughts - I liked the water challenge. Someone like me, who doesn't really like water, has to think about drinking water. It's a little more natural to me now. :)

    Total weeks water - 103/56
    Best NSV (non scale victory) - I had a leather jacket in the closet for many years that was ripped and so I stopped wearing it. It was also way too small for me to wear. I tried it on this week and it fits again. I am going to get it fixed so I can use it.

    Comments/Thoughts - I love the daily challenges. Thank you for all the hard work you are doing by giving us challenges to do and stay motivated.
