    Good Morning and Happy Mothers Day! :happy: (although i think it may be just in the UK)

    Well last week was great, but really bad for my diet! I managed to put 7lbs on after celebrating my birthday and then going to Torquay for the weekend for a conference and dinner dance. I had no control over my food and lost control over my alcohol consumption! Oops :noway:

    Well i know that not all of it was fat gain as the food was probably full of salt, so i wasn't too bothered by it.

    On Tuesday i had to take the train to Bristol to be with my daughter at a hospital appointment, she found a lump in her breast. Thank fully it was a false alarm, she's ok :happy:

    Whist there we ate out twice, more salt!

    Well during this week i have managed to lose 5lbs of the 7lbs that i had gained. I am so happy with that, so.......

    2 weeks ago - 210
    CW - 212
    GW - 180

    That's a gain of 2lbs, i can cope with that.

    Good luck to you all x x

    All the same here. No loss, but no gain.

    Jax: Happy Mothers Day in the UK, In the US we celebrate this day in May. Glad your daughter is doing well. That must have given all of you a scare. Traveling makes it difficult to stick with a program. I am proud of you for working hard to get settled back into your routine. :drinker: Here's to a great week!

    Checking in. No change. Still 174. Happy Mothers' Day to all the moms across the pond:laugh: I know I mentioned in the skinny saturday thread that I had a great workout with my friend/trainer. Well, I've been feeling it ever since. I can't remember the last time I was this sore :noway: I seriously got my butt kicked :laugh: That's exactly what I need though. I'm not complaining.

    Here's to a great week!! :drinker:

    Down 1/2 pound today. Doesn't sound like much BUT I broke through a "0." For some reason Mr. Scale is slow to cooperate with me. He is coming along though.....reluctantly! How did everyone else do?:heart:

    1 lb down this week for me! That make 13.5 total! :blushing: I think my ticker rounds up...but it is ok with me! :wink: I think increasing my exercise was the key this week. I also did the Skinny Saturday Challenge yesterday. That keeps me focused for the weekend.

    Jax, oh well...1 measley pound....could have been alot worse girl. You will have that off in a day or two....Have a good week!

    Great job, Fab!! Congrats! You certainly did have a Skinny Saturday!! :happy:
    Don't sweat it, Jax. You know you'll get back on track. Weather permitting, go for a bike ride or 2 :happy:

    I ladies,,, missed ya last week... just got back from visiting family and alot of coming and goings,,,
    and after eating out almost everyday I just knew I'ed gained a couple at least this week....I've never traveled without gaining something. Every time I sat down at a fast food rest. or stake dinner, or the bag of M&Ms that I snacked on as I drove home 8 hrs yesterday I'd tell my self I'm going to regret this.. but to my surprise this morning I was right where I was before I llft last week.... I was so shocked,, I had to weigh myself a couple of times to make sure....I didn't gain anything... as I hoped I wouldn't...
    although me and my daughters went hiking all day Thursday,,, and my calf muscles are still sore from it... but we had a great vacation and I'm not so excited about going back to the grindstone tomorrow.

    One pound for me this week!!!! Woohoo!!! 170! I can't wait to break into the 160s !! :bigsmile: :drinker: :bigsmile:
    Don't sweat it, Jax. You've been working hard. The scale will catch up. I noticed that cycling ticker keeps moving! Good for you!! :smile:
    Good luck, everyone! :flowerforyou:

    Congrats Sky on your loss! :happy: You have worked so hard you deserve to see that scale move! I can't wait to help you celebrate breaking through that "0." I am hoping for a loss next week. I have been exercising more but didn't see a change this week. :indifferent: Drat! Oh well, I know it will come off if I keep being consistant. I did the Shred for the first time yesterday and am a bit sore today. But it is a good sore! At least I know it is working! I will just walk tonight.

    Jax, you are cycling away the fat and building muscle. Remember, muscle weighs more so sometimes we feel slighted by Mr. Scale - that scoundral! Ignore him and keep on rolling! Good job!:happy:

    Good luck to all this week! Hope we can all celebrate together next week. BE STRONG!:flowerforyou:

    No worries, Fab! Just keep doing what you're doing. I did the Shred a while back and I didn't see a lot of movement on the scale, but I did see the inches go down. :smile:

    I was wondering about that. I think I will still throw in extra cardio on days when I am shredding. The workout is brief...but pretty good! Tnx!
