    Here's my stats for the week:
    12/31- 190 lbs
    1/7- 187 lbs
    1/21- 183 lbs
    1/28- 182 lbs

    1 lb loss. I hope to do better next week. I have 7# before my first goal weight when DH comes home on leave...I'd better get working!!

    8 lbs lost total in 2010.

    You are all doing so well! I'm seeing some good numbers this week! Do we have a challenge for next week yet?

    Congrats to all the loses this week! For those who didn't lose, just stick with it and stay positive.

    Goals for this week:
    FAITHFULLY record everything I eat (I tend to falter around dinner time)
    At least 30 min. of exercise every day (except Sunday)
    Stay away from the cheese! Cheese is my weakness :)

    Hope everyone has a great weekend!

    WOW! Looks like some really good stats this week :wink: Congrats to all, even those that didn't lose any...well you didn't gain any either so that makes you a winner. I agree with GoingToLoseIt, stick with it and stay positive :smile:

    Goingto loseit- I noticed you mentioned cheese as a weakness and along with PB, cheese was definatly a favorite of mine but both are LOADED with fat! My natropath suggested cutting out dairy and wheat as they are common allergens and can slow weight loss if your body is already having trouble digesting them.So I have pretty much cut out all dairy for the last couple of weeks and I noticed this morning I had some cereal with milk and instantly had a belly ache. Interestesting now I don't want the cheese so much either!
    I also have trouble logging around supper but that has been my focus this week too.:smile:

    Thats a good thought. I never have milk with my cereal in the morning, because it always gives me a bit of a stomache-ache. I always thought it was a combination of the milk and then driving in the car for half an hour to go to work, but I have noticed that cheese and some types of yogurt also make me feel bloated/sick - even though I love cheese! I have a doctor appointment next week, and I will mention it to my dr. and see what her thoughts are.

    Well, I stayed the same this week :grumble: Starting weight 343, current weight 333. I know why it happened at least - I was not faithful to staying within my calories. Thats my goal for this week - I have the exercise part down, it's the calories piece. I've enlisted my fiance to help me - he's not to allow me to go to bed without logging my food for the day! And I have to show my food diary to him, so that he'll know I did it!

    Do we have a challenge yet this week?

    Struggling with getting my workouts in again this week. I leave for a snowboarding trip to CO 2 weeks from tomorrow...I need to work out every day to make sure I can shred the mountain as best I can. Didn't leave myself much time to get ready, but 2 weeks is better than not doing anything at all!! Good luck to everyone for the next week!!

    Start Weight 1/11/10 174
    1/14/10 173 - mostly dehydration, but I'll take it!
    1/21/10 - didn't weigh myself, TOM
    1/28/10 - 172.5
    2/4/10 - 173

    Sigh. That's what I get for not exercising.
    I stopped drinking coffee in the morning, and expected that one change to do all the heavy lifting. Apparently not. I had hoped that sticking to the 1300 calories a day metric would be enough - but I have great difficulty actually accomplishing that.

    Obviously working out diligently and being able to eat less strictly works better for me than holding to a strict diet and not working out at all.

    To the gym I go.

    Happy Thursday!
    Here's my stats for the week:
    12/31- 190 lbs
    1/7- 187 lbs
    1/21- 183 lbs
    1/28- 182 lbs
    2/4- 182 lbs

    No loss this week. I did everything right with exercising but I seriously need to focus more on my diet. I've been eating to meet my calories, not eating to make a life change (like when I burned 2500 cals by steam cleaning my carpets in 7 hrs, and didn't eat...so I ate fast food at 7:30 that night to meet my cals). I'm working on it though. Maybe next week will be a big loss to make up for this week? I sure hope so. Still 7# to go...so close!!!

    Goal this week:
    GET UNDER 180!!
    Focus on food
    Run 2 miles straight (I have a 1/4 mile break in my 2 mile run right now; would LOVE to run the whole thing!)
