I should have checked-in Monday, but totally forgot!
So, since 10/30 I've lost 5.6 lbs. I have another 30 to go to my goal for the end of the year. I feel good about meeting this goal.
Exercise - hasn't been great -I feel and re-injured my bad knee the day we started this challenge - so I've had to nurse the knee and I am just getting back to my cycling.0 -
Goal by end of end of year 160.
be closer to running a 5K (no walking)
11-1-12 = 169.0
11-5-12 = 168.4 (-0.6) = running 25 minutes solid.
11-12-12 = 164.4 (-4.0) = running 26 minutes solid. I have never had a 4 pound week, wow.0 -
11/5: Weight- 139.5 pounds, which is 6.5 higher than the last time I weighed myself but it's not going to bring me down. Burned 841 calories on my stationary bike this morning, 2659 till I reach my weekly goal.
11/12: Weight-140 lbs, burned 3550 calories last week.0 -

11/5/12 weight was 165.6
11/11/12 weight was 165.4 UGH only lost .2 pounds. Must be going through another dreaded stall! I have upped my exercise to include walking 4 miles a day in one hour, 50 sit ups a day and over the head upper arm curls 50 reps with 3 pound weight in each hand.
I am staying on track with protein, food and liquids so not for sure why I didn't loose more. I usually loose 1.5-2 pounds a week!
Oh well, hoping next week will show a bigger loss.
Good luck to all this week!0 -
Goal by NYE: 190
As for yesterday
11/5/12 - 207.4
11/12/12 - 204.2 Wooohooo I have been losing pretty slowly (or just not moving at all) the past couple weeks. pretty happy for a 3.2lb loss
I've been carrying a water bottle with me everywhere, but sadly, once it's emptied once, I generally forget about it. Took in 6 cups of fluids yesterday though which is better than usual for me

This morning (11/12/12) my weight was 197.4. I guess I am losing about 2 pounds a week, but to be honest, I haven't kept close track. Since my surgery on 9/27/12, I have lost 20.6 pounds. If I have a goal, it is to see the 180's by January 1st. I was worried about my weight loss being slow, but my surgeon explains it in percentages. Something like I have lost 49% of the weight needed to be lost and the rest will be slower, because I am getting closer to my goal.
Exercise wise, I just walk. Couldn't tell you how many miles, just that I try to get in an hour each day. When it rains, I use Leslie Sansone Walk Slim and can do about 3 miles. Before my surgery, I could barely walk to my mailbox, so there has been a major improvement. I am "with" my surgeon in the belief that we need to "just keep moving." Gardening, cleaning, walking....doing everyday things that we can make habits of for the rest of our lives.0 -

Band fill on 11/19 - so hoping to hit onderland by 11/25 or 12/2 at the latest!!!! Can't wait.
Strength training will be going on a hiatus soon - having cataract surgery on the 7th and 18th and won't be allowed to do all that bending over and lifting (tho not heavy weights) but will still keep up with the cardio... YAY!0
