My three goals are:
1. Eat less processed foods.
2. Try one or two new recipes a week from the skinnytaste.com website.
3. Lose 10 lbs.
This week I made "Swedish Meatballs"..http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/05/swedish-meatballs.html...they were pretty good. Next time, I would double the sauce portion of the recipe as it seemed a little skimpy & I wouldn't add the allspice. All in all, I would totally make it again !!
Weigh in:
9/27/12: 159.2 lbs.
10/4/12: 158.4 lbs (-.8)

Happy Thursday All!
I am feeling FINALLY like I am getting back on track. I've been to the gym twice this week and am getting more veggies into my menu. I'm not yet where I want to be, but getting there. Had a small loss this week - which helps the morale to keep going. Now, I just need to keep building on all my goals!!
Challenge Goals:
* Lose 10 lbs
* Eat 2-3 servicing of produce each day
* Gym (or home workout - 2-3 times a week

Challenge Loss Total - .6 lbs0 -
So weigh-in is on Thursday? I guess I missed that. Thought starting day was Oct. 1st. I'm just going to say I stayed the same this week and I will see how next week goes. I usually weigh on Monday.0

Hello to all! I woke up very late this morning and forgot to weigh in until I was fully dressed and ready to walk out the door. Of the goals I set for myself, I have done really well with having no soda (four days and counting), I've been more consistent with exercise, and I'm really struggling with adding a fruit or veggie to each meal but I'll get there.

Joy - You can continue to weigh in on whatever day works best for you. We just picked Thursday as a random day of the week to check in. Not everyone is tracking weight-related goals - so maybe we'll make sure to label the weekly topic thread as Check In, rather than Weigh In.
For all - if you are tracking weight through this challenge - you can post your update at any point during the week - once the topic thread is posted on that Thursday. So your weigh in may be a day or two or five, after the topic date - no worries!!

Ok, thanks for the info. My last weigh-in was 275. As for my goals, I am doing good on drinking water and exercising, but TERRIBLE on limiting sweets and sodas. I need to work on that.0

LW: 212.6
TW: 213.2 (+0.6)
That's ok - I can explain every 1/10th of point increase, but no excuses, I will be down next week :drinker:
My three goals - I did well on 2 out of 3 and we have plenty of weeks left to get into the groove.
1. Get and STAY below 200 by Thanksgiving and through Christmas
2. Only buy groceries for a few days worth of meals at one time (I keep too much food available, even if it's good food I eat it)
3. Go to at least 1 Zumba class per week over the next 3 months0 -
Sorry, I missed yesterday. Hope you all have a great weekend!

I have been MIA; I do that frequently!

Nice! Everyone is doing great so far.
Here's how I've been doing...
1) CARDIO: I only skipped two days last week! ON days when I didn't think I'd be able to do anything, I squeezed in a walk or a quick run. I'm about to go to the gym before I head into work, so I'm feeling pretty good about this one.
2) STRENGTH: major FAIL. I have not started strength training yet. I'm overwhelmed thinking about it.
3) FOOD: with the exception of one major weekend binge day, pretty ok! Lots of vegetables, lots of whole foods. I cut out soda entirely, replaced it with sparkling water... still gotta have my carbonation... but I'm feeling great!
I lost a couple pounds this past week, and hope I didn't really offset my loss with that binge! And I guess that's the point of this group... to avoid the holiday binges!0 -
I have been doing weigh-ins on Monday
10/1: 189
10/8: 187
I finally dropped the few pounds I gained since I last logged a loss. :drinker:
I am in a challenge, so I have been busting it with 30 Day Shred and C25K. I also have been pushing the baby for 3 miles several times a week. I haven't missed a day of loggin yet, so I am proud of that.
This week I want to take a closer look at my sodium intake. I retain water like a sponge :grumble: and need to do something!
I hope all is well with everyone!0 -
I'm a little behind from being out of town. My high weight was 280.
10/1/12 277.2
10/8/12 271.2
Got off most of the water weight that I gained in September. Now that I am back home, I can eat better and not eat so much processed stuff. I don't really have an official weigh in day since I weigh daily, but I will probably use the Friday weight in the future.
Have a great day everyone!0 -

Wednesdays are my usual weigh-in so guesss I'll be at the end of the string most of the time
Still holding steady at 253 but feeling good about it cause I had a wedding the week of 9/29 & went away with friends this weekend. I did OK food wise but drank a good amount which I've been keeping to minimum since I joined MPF. Now I can get back to moderation and hopefully start losing again. I've been doing better with my water but I'm still struggling with getting motivated to work out more.

I also weigh on Monday.
10/1 - 275.0
10/8 - 273.4
Doing good with the exercise and water, need to work on the sweets. I did resist pastries my husband bought last night. He had an assortment of donuts and muffins. I love sweets, but this time I was able to resist.0
