CC's Biggest Loser Challenge- The Final Weeks

Options
Hi everyone welcome to the final weeks. Now that we are down to a small number of people there's no need to do a new thread each week. I will post each week's results here in this thread.

I apologize for my lack of involvement lately. I am wrapping up a couple of college classes which are keeping me very busy.

    Hey Pam, seems like you and I or one of our family members are sick a lot! I think we are going back and forth! I currently have an upper respiratory infection. Hope you feel better soon.:flowerforyou:

    It's a new week! Happy Tuesday everyone!

    Last week: 163.6
    This week: 164.0
    I gained 0.4 lbs

    If I were on the BL show, they'd vote me off, I suppose. I don't watch much, but I never see them blaming TOM for low numbers or gains.

    I'm blaming a combination of TOM plus doing a lot more strength training than usual. I ate a few things that I shouldn't have this week (like a slice of cheesecake). And my attempts to exercise twice as much to burn it off apparently failed.

    I hit my goal this last week. I am not where I'd like to be, not as toned, so I think I am changing it to 120.
    126.8 last week
    125 this week

    1.8lbs lost



    Next week is makeover week on the Biggest Loser. What do you think of doing before and after photos? I know we aren't at the end but it would be cool to see how far we've come in the last 4 months.

    congrats for making your goal, CC!!!

    I'm not sure if going for more weight loss is the answer to your toning problem. i'm wondering if you put yourself on maintenance mode on here and continue with your workout regimen if you can continue to tone without consciously trying to lose weight.

    I forgot to post my weight earlier this week. I still weigh myself every day (i know i shouldn't, but...) and it's kind of discouraging when it seems that every week i hit my new low weight over the weekend and float up another pound or so during the next week. this last weekend, i hit a new low of 147 but really on tues/wed i was at 148.8. so i guess that's my official weight this week.

    i know i have changed my goals a few times too, and my hubby is starting to get a little upset with me about it. i *think* my new goal is 145. but i did already move my mfp goal to maintenance, and i just try to come in 300 cals under or so each day so that i will continue to lose, just slower.

    btw, pictures are a great idea. was it january or february that we started?

    :smile: charity

    clheide- We started this challenge in January. I agree losing weight may not do it. I've lost 35 lbss and only about an inch in my waist. I am hoping P90X will do it. I am meeting with a nutritionist also.

    I just wanted to let you all know why I have not posted the #'s yet. I spent 10 hrs at the ER last night/this morning. The doctors think I have some type of infection and they are leaning towards appendicitis. I have to go back for tests tomorrow. They cannot give me pain medication because they need to see if the pain gets better or worse so I am in a lot of pain. I do not know what will happen but if it is appendicitis I have to have surgery in the next couple days to have my appendix removed.
