So I didn't quite make my mini goal of being under 150 before my trip, but I am close. I am happy with that.
I will not be able to check in next week as we will be in Florida, we leave tonight. I am so excited, its my first real vacation ever.
Keep up all the good work everyone, and I will check in the week after.0 -
I need a major kick in the *kitten*!
I was down 2 lbs last week and now I'm back to my starting weight. I have been exercising like crazy and staying within my cals (including my workout cals). The scale won't budge!! I don't know what to do. I"ve tried protein shakes for breakfast and lunch with fruit as snacks. And I have a "normal" dinner. I just want to break down. It's not my TOM.
This might be a dumb question but could the birth control I'm taking have an effect on my weight? I had to stop it last month because of side effects and this month soon as I started it back up I gained weight. Or, could it all be in my mind?
Any advise is welcomed and wanted.0 -

Not sure what I was last week, but I'm almost positive it was more than that!!
I typically do really well with my eating on the weekends, but I completely dehydrate because I don't drink anything. My mini weekend goal is to drink as much water on Sat as I do on Monday. I hope this will help me stay on track.
Didn't exercise yesterday, but my husband says that he'll watch the little one so I can have an hour today!! So excited! (That was one of my mother's day requests).
Hope everyone has a great weekend!! (Even though it's only Thursday)0 -

Wasn't able to keep up to the water challenge....just way too much water for me. I was successful in staying within my daily calorie goal. I did my workouts all week but I've slacked on the 200 sit-up challenge. I'm hoping to get back on track with that.
It's been 9 weeks since I started my healthier lifestyle & I've lost 20 lbs & 26.25 inches so far overall :happy:0 -

Mini Goal that I set last week was 5 pounds down by May 21, so only 2.4 pounds left to lose and goal achieved :happy:
I want to thank Kaylac for the challenge last week; it was awesome. It kept my butt moving. So thank you very much!
Congratulations on everyone's progress you are all doing so well and I wish everyone the best of luck for the week to come.
Allie have a great time in Vegas!
Here's a quote I came across that I thought was appropriate: Acceptance is the key to thinner peace. :flowerforyou:0 -
Good morning!
I completely forgot that this morning was weigh-in and I was being hard on myself because I couldn't make it until Friday to look at the scale. Then, when I jumped on here, I saw Allie's reminder and was glad I got on the scale this morning. Weird how things work out...
CW: 191.4
I haven't seen this number for about a month now, so I'm glad I'm back down to it. I give credit to the challenge of staying within calories. Woo hoo! Monday was a bad eating day but the past few days have been better. I've also been underestimating my exercise calories in hope of giving myself some "cushion" so to speak.
Unfortunately due to my busy schedule, I haven't been on here as much as I'd like, but I'm still tracking calories daily. I also haven't been able to get any formal workouts done, but have been walking for 3-4 hours at the riding program so at least I'm moving. I'm also lifting kids on and off horses, which I've notices is helping my arm strength. I was able to hang from the pull up bar last night, which is a step in the right direction, too.
Alright, back to work!

Great job to everyone who has maintained and lost. I'm soooo frustrated today.
I've been working out like a woman possessed and really eating clean and a GAIN today for my efforts:sad:
I'm so over myself I can't even tell you.:mad:
Ah well...as the Brits would say, "Chin up and carry on"

I getting frustrated!! I don't know what is going on with me! I'm staying within my calories (below actually), exercising everyday, and drinking my water. I weighed yesterday and was down to 147.8 I think, but today I am at 149!! My husband thinks it may be water. I don't drink hardly anything on the weekend but on Monday I go back to drinking about a gallon a day. I don't know what is going on but it's making me mad lol!! I got my exercise in yesterday! I got to walk, run, jog for about 25 minutes yesterday. Then I cut back some bushes outside for about 20 minutes. I feel great, my pants fit MUCH better, but the scale can't make up it's mind which way it wants to go!! I'm just going to keep at it and hope I can lose what I want to by my birthday (which is coming up soon)!!
There's a rule of thumb I heard on another thread that I remember in times like this.
Assuming you are doing everything right, eating your cals, exercising, water etc.
If you see a gain it's water retention, if you see a loss it's fat !!!
There is absolutely NO scientific basis behind this but it makes me feel better when the scale is all over the place.
This week I ate a lot of my meals out and so very high sodium and the scale had me higher than last friday every day up until this morning. I ate well and exercised all week and drank my water so I knew it was just water retention due to the sodium and it didn't bother me.0 -
WEIGH IN FOR THIS WEEK
189.0
That's a 0.8 loss since last friday and I'm quite happy with that. I knew it wouldn't be a big loss after 4lbs last week..
Allie - Have a great time in Vegas, I'll be there next weekend for a wedding!
Shredder - see my last post? muscles can retain water too I hear so when you have sore muscles you are retaining water, keep it up and you WILL see that hard work pay off. I know for me my weekly weigh ins are all over the place, 1lb, 4lbs, 0lbs !!! It doesn't always make much sense but in the long term it's all moving in the right direction.0 -
CW: 170.6
This week has went really fast for me and not so good either. I was starting to lose the "will" but after reading your posts I'm getting motivated again. Guess I should have logged on more! I've done good with staying under on my calories but not good with the exercise. My mini goal this week is to lose 2 lbs, succeed at the new challenge, work on the old challenges and log on more. It's obvious I stay encouraged by reading your posts.
Everyone: Good job this week!0 -
Okay here's the weigh in... down from last week thankfully!!!
CW 202
Not quite to where I was the first week i weighed in but i'm getting there. My downfall is calorie tracking. I LOVE working out so that isn't a problem... but I LOVE food just as much!!! And I love fattening food... sad day
but i'm working on it!!!0 -
WOOOOHOOOOO! LOOK AT ALL THESE LOSSES!!!!
Since its a weigh in day I got to 'record" my weight and I am now OFFICIALLY at my halfway mark! Hoooray!

CW 142
GW...ANYTHING LOWER THAN 142!!!!
I'm getting so frustrated. I've been cooking/eating clean, (despite the rest of my family's lack of enthusiasm), exercising, and loading up on water. I'm tired of seeing 142 on my scale....maybe it's broken and stuck on that number! Sure...
Cris~ you are so right about your body eventually adjusting to the extra water intake. I've always been a heavy drinker, in this case water, but I've really upped my consumption. At first it felt like I lived in the bathroom, now I notice it has slowed. Thanks for that challenge and info!
Allie~Have fun in Vegas! I ahve nothing but fond memories of that place...:devil:0 -
