    Personal Goals for last week met!, Personal goals for this week:

    - Stick to my calorie allowance
    - Get to the gym at least 3 x
    - Get to one yoga/pilates session


    *I haven't lost 6lbs in a week! 07/09 weigh in was from the Wednesday before as that's my weigh in day and I thought weighing in again only a few days later would put me on a downer. So, it's 6lbs in 2 weeks. I'll keep my weigh in day as Wednesday and just post after everyone else.

    you're building muscle and muscle weighs more than fat but takes up less space, hence the loose pants. it's working! keep at it!

    Monday weigh-in!

    CW: 190
    GW by end of this month: 184 (that's 1.5 lbs a week - probably more than I can do, but it is considered reasonable)

    07/09: 190
    07/16: 190 (this is not working out for me, is it?

    Goals for this month were: go out riding on my bike (which is the exercise I find easiest) at least 2, hopefully 3 times a week.
    Get to the gym twice a week.
    Dig out my exercise bike from the basement and use it!
    Stretch my heel spur so that someday it hopefully goes away and I can go back to walking & Zumba.
    And, stay within my 1470 daily calorie goal.

    What I have accomplished so far mid-way through July: a few long bike rides outside. And some stretching of my heel spur.
    July Fails: I did not get to the gym yet at all this month; I have not dug out my basement exercise eqipment, and at least 4 days of the week I am not staying within my calorie goal. :( Also I did not stretch enough.

    But, even though I haven't lost a pound yet this month, my pants are a little less tight and I feel more fit; as if I am standing up straighter. So I think I'm making progress, it's just measured in ounces right now instead of pounds.

    Can anyone do the fancy spreadsheet we did in April & may?  I liked inputting it somewhere and seeing how much we lost as a group :-)

    I'm not sure how to, Healthbunny did that and she deleted her account. I'll have hubby look into it though. He's a computer geek lol

    I totally feel you. I gained some and now I'm stuck. Don't get depressed about it or it will only get worse. Just relax and change up something in your routine. Another thing make sure when you hit the gym that you're doing cardio. Otherwise you'll burn calories but not fat. Good luck!

    Another week of not losing anything - weight or inches, mind you I got a bit demotivated and decided to eat without care - still logged though so I can see why I haven't lost any this week. On the plus side I finished this challenge 1.5lbs lighter and since being on MFP I've lost some inches so that's something.

    Tomorrow is a new month and I'm ready to get back on track! Good luck everyone
