    Start Date July 15 Starting weight 303
    Week 1 July 22 - 300.4 down 2.6 I'll take it!
    Week 2 July 29 – 300.4 No loss but after camping last weekend I’m surprised I didn’t gain. Hopefully next week will show a loss. ;)

    Week 3 August 5 - 299.6 -.8 lost really been struggling. Still trying though.
    Week 4 August 12 – 296 -3.6 woohoo!!!!!
    Week 5 August 19 – 293.8 -2.2 Yeah! I didn’t blow it on my camping trip last weekend.
    Week 6 August 26 – 292.3 -1.5 Woo hoo! Might make it to my goal next week! I sure hope so! Total of 10.7 lost since we started.

    Week 7 September 2 Labor Day is Monday - hope to be @ 290 by today. 291.4 lost .9 this week and didn’t make my goal Oh well, there’s always next week.
    Week 8 September 9 – 287.2 4.2 lost Woo hoo! I’m only a few days late but I’m definitely below 290 now.
    Week 9 September 16 – 285.8 1.4 lost total of 17.2 since we started
    Week 10 September 23 – 284.6 1.2 lost total of 18.4 so far. Doubting that I’ll make my 280 goal by next week though.
    Week 11 September 30 Eli’s birthday – shooting for 280 (will be happy with 285 though)

    Week 12 October 7

    I hope everyone has had a successful week.
  • ok so since i am starting this week i am going to put my starting weight up of 159.5....im a little disappointed in myself that i havent lost anything in the last couple of weeks but i am hoping to turn everything around and do better....i just have a hard time getting motivated after work. my husband is in iraq and comes home for 2 weeks in februrary so i am really trying to suprise him with a "transformed" happier, healthier, thinner me :)...hopefully next week i see that number go down :)

    Congrats to everyone that has lost, you are all doing a fantastic job. To the ones that did not, don't give up, you can do it. Just be a little more strict with yourself on your eating and exercise. If you have questions or do not feel motivated we are all here to help each other. That is what this board and others are for.
    Keep moving & shaking and in no time you will get to your goal. Keep up the great work. :bigsmile:

    Hello all. Great job this week everyone. Congrats to those who lost this week. I am so glad to see everyone in this group has such a positive attitude. I did a good job with my exercise this week. I worked out about 4 or 5 time during the past week. This is a huge accomplishment for me since I have had a lot of trouble with motivating myself to workout. I also started the Couch 2 5k program this week. I realized that I am not in good enough shape to follow the program as it is laid out. It will probably take me about 2 or 3 prelimenary weeks before I am ready to start the following the program to the letter. I have also committed to do a race on November 20 with my mom and a family friend. Anyway, I lost a pound in the past week, but I am going to need to step it up a bit if I am going to make my goal weight. I am aiming to lose 2 pounds by next week to play a bit of catch up.

    Congrats to all that have loss this week:flowerforyou: GREAT job!!

    I am at a loss as to why I can't drop this weight!! I am thinking about a trainer.. I bust my butt 5 to 6 days a week with working out and have been really good with my food:huh:

    ok so since i am starting this week i am going to put my starting weight up of 159.5....im a little disappointed in myself that i havent lost anything in the last couple of weeks but i am hoping to turn everything around and do better....i just have a hard time getting motivated after work. my husband is in iraq and comes home for 2 weeks in februrary so i am really trying to suprise him with a "transformed" happier, healthier, thinner me :)...hopefully next week i see that number go down :)

    Welcome! Seeing your husband is definitely amazing motivation! I also have a really hard time getting with it and working out after work. I have no energy and it feels like my legs are so heavy :ohwell: . So I've been either waking up an hour earlier (and I'm NOT a morning person) or working out after dinner, which also keeps me from snacking! We can do it!!!

    Goal is to be 140 by New years. When I break it down like that it looks do-able.

    Hello all. Great job this week everyone. Congrats to those who lost this week. I am so glad to see everyone in this group has such a positive attitude. I did a good job with my exercise this week. I worked out about 4 or 5 time during the past week. This is a huge accomplishment for me since I have had a lot of trouble with motivating myself to workout. I also started the Couch 2 5k program this week. I realized that I am not in good enough shape to follow the program as it is laid out. It will probably take me about 2 or 3 prelimenary weeks before I am ready to start the following the program to the letter. I have also committed to do a race on November 20 with my mom and a family friend. Anyway, I lost a pound in the past week, but I am going to need to step it up a bit if I am going to make my goal weight. I am aiming to lose 2 pounds by next week to play a bit of catch up.

    Start Date July 15 - Starting weight 179 lbs.
    Week 1 July 22 - 177 (-2)
    Week 2 July 29 - 175 (-2)
    Week 3 August 5 - 173 (-2) (-6 total)
    Week 4 August 12 - 172 (-1) (-7 total)
    Week 5 August 19 - 170 (-2) (-9 total)
    Week 6 August 26- 3 year Anniversary! Mini Goal weight = 169
    Week 7 September 2 Labor Day is Monday
    Week 8 September 9 - 167 (-11 total)
    Week 9 September 16- 166 (-12 total)
    Week 10 September 23 - 165 (-1) (-13 total)
    Week 11 September 30 Mini Goal Weight 161.5

    On the C5K, I would do it how it is laid out, but just do week 1 for a couple of weeks then go to week 2 and do that week a couple of times and so on. I would not modify it. It is like any other program, they lay it out that way because it works. That is great that you are doing it. I am currently on week 6 and am really excited about my results so far. Since I have started, I have been slowly lossing a pound a week. You can do it and if you have any questions, just ask. :bigsmile:

    Start Date July 15 Starting weight 177.2
    Week 1 July 22 177.6 (up 0.4 too many treats while camping!)
    Week 2 July 29 174.9 one mini goal down!

    Week 3 August 5 175.5 TOM and salt--I hate salt!
    Week 4 August 12 174.8 A little better but not what I had hoped for.
    Week 5 August 19 174 surprising with all the junk I ate this weekend.
    Week 6 August 26 172.6 Very acceptable!

    Week 7 September 2 175.6 Ate way too much junk!
    Week 8 September 9 173.7 filling up with fiber helps!
    Week 9 September 16 178 I definitely didn't get better this week!!
    Week 10 September 23 177.8 So much for hoping it was just water weight.
    Week 11 September 30

    Hey at least you lost a pound, you are doing great. Keep up the good work. :bigsmile:

    Well I have to say, not to be negative, but I am only down 11 lbs in 10 weeks. I should be losing 2 lbs a week! I know I will get there, I just wish it was less daunting.

    Week 1 July 22 - 177
    Week 2 July 29 - 177

    Week 3 August 5 - 174 (down 3, but is actually a week and a half. I had used Mondays weight)
    Week 4 August 12 - 172
    Week 5 August 19 - Not weighing in
    Week 6 August 26 -168.2 (if I lose 1.2 in the next 5 days I hit my first mini goal)
    * mini goal 167 by the end of August*

    Week 7 September 2 - 167.5 ( I am going to consider that a mini goal made)Labor Day is Monday
    Week 8 September 9 -167.2
    Week 9 September 16-168
    Week 10 September 23 -166
    Week 11 September 30
    *hoping to be 163

    You may not lose 2 pounds per week every week, but you did this last week. You are doing great. Don't kick yourself too hard. Keep pushing forward and you will get there. :bigsmile:

    You might need to get more strict with your food choices. I know it is hard, but you can do it. Also, you might switch up your workouts a little. Your body might be needing a change from the normal. :bigsmile:
