Last 10lbs Group - March Challenges

Happy Monday!

I am excited to share that I was really good over the weekend! I usually go crazy foodwise and never count my calories over the weekend, but this weekend I made an effort to log my foods and exercise and keep myself on track. I even got to indulge in some birthday cake for my SIL's birthday on Saturday! :bigsmile: I could have drank more water, but that is a goal for next weekend. I did my runs outside as the weather was absolutely gorgeous, but gosh it is much harder to run outside than on the treadmill!! I am feeling this weekend's workouts in my shins and thighs for sure today! I am really hoping that the change from indoors to outdoors will spur a weightloss for the next few weeks.

Congrats to all the losers this week!! :drinker:

Good job everyone! I stayed the same at weigh in today. Better than a gain though! I've realized that I can't eat all of the calories that I earn from exercise. This week my goal is to eat half of the calories I earn and see how that goes.

I stayed the same! I ran a total of 19 miles last week, did 3 days of circuit training, and took 2 walks. My husband only rode the stationary for 30 minutes one day and lost 1.5 pounds!
Men!

I am feeling like I'm hitting a plateau. I realize I have been sick and lost some weight due to being sick but I am feeling off with what I am eating etc. I need to switch it up a bit. I definetly have to up my water intake and start exercising but I'm not feeling very motivated at all.

Because I am can actually verbalize this means I am aware of it but lack the discipline right now to get moving!! I need to make some changes... and soon!!

I am at 137 right now and with my 1st goal just over 2 weeks away....I doubt I will be down to 133lbs unless of course I starve myself ..... which won't help!!!!!!

You have gone through a tough week! Just give your body time to find level and in the meantime do what's best for you .. activity that is fun and foods that are tasty (and healthy of course ) You will get right back to it - we all need to give ourselves a break to allow recovery. You are so close to your goal, you will get there - look where you came from! Just being where you are is a great achievement and the little further you want to go is fun not a chore! You WILL do it in the timing that is right for your body and health! So have a great day Ellipse!

I stayed the same this week too! Grrr....

Wow! I totally missed how this whole thread progresses into all of this. : (

Let me update you.... The last time I weighed in... last Friday i was down 1.8 pounds! Yay!

I weigh in of Fridays now and I sadly won't get to the gym tomorrow because my fiance is taking me to see RENT for my birthday , so I will have to weigh myself when I am back to the gym on Monday. We shall see if I have continued to lose. ** cross fingers **

I feel good about my eating and water drinking in the past few weeks. Now I remember what it is like to really jump back on the wagon and be a good girl when it comes to eating. One thing I am excited about is that my sons karate schedule has changed allowing me to get to a spinning class on Wednesdays which has burned 860 calories each time! Yahooo! That should do some damage.

Well, congrads to all and everyone keep up the good work!

Also... thank god spring is on its way. :flowerforyou:

Weigh-in day...156.6 today, down from 158.6 last week. :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

Congratulations! :drinker:

I'm bummed. No change in the scale. I've been wavering around 134.6 for three weeks now. Different times I have gotten on the scale have been 134.6, 134.8, 134.4 and back to 134.8!

I finally got around to taking my measurements last week because I want to see some numbers going down somewhere!
