June Starters - June21

Well it is Tuesday and I didn't see a thread started yesterday so here it is. If there is one maybe you can point me to it and we will forget this one! :smile:

I am up 2 ounces. 146.2

I have decided to focus on getting back to working out 5 days a week again. I have really been slacking the past couple of weeks. I started by getting up an hour earlier this morning so I could do the elliptical. Hopefully I will keep enough energy to do the shred or a bosu workout later tonight. Working out in the evening really worked for me all winter and spring, but in the summer I think I spend too much time outside and I am exhausted and lethargic in the evenings, I just want to veg.

Hope everyone has a great week.

    HI! I was searching for the thread too. lol Thought I missed it.

    Had the best weekend EVER. The only thing that could've made it better is if it were a little longer.

    I'm going to pre weigh in tomorrow to see where I'm at.

    We did do a 25+ mile bike Sat. I thought for sure I was gonna die! I was pulling Elly in the trailor so that was an added 45-50 lbs! We even kept a steady pace of 15 MPH or more! :noway: :noway: :noway: :bigsmile:

    Wow 25 miles! Good job busymom!

    I was down another pound on Monday, but I'm sure I was lower during the week because I wasn' t so great this weekend. :sad:

    LW: 191.0
    CW:190.0

    I've kind of been slacking yesterday and today too. Hopefully I'll get back on track very soon.

    I'm here I'm here!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Guess what! I'm wearing LEGGINGS! Yep! Black capri leggings! TO WORK! :noway: :noway: :love: :smooched: I love this site!

    I'm interested to see what my weight will be. Somehow I just know it'll be a gain.

    I was up early and on the elliptical this morning. :bigsmile:

    Yay you with the leggings. I love the look but haven't had the nerve.

    I got up at 5 to make sure I got the elliptical in today. Makes you feel good to have that out of the way doesn't it.

    busymom you look amazing!!!! Keep up the good work!

    I'm slipping off the wagon again. I'm starting the 30 day shred again tomorrow and will finish it!!! Dress fitting in 37 days, wedding in 72!

    Anyone want to do the shred with me?

    Shannah- I'm slipping too! lol I keep thinking well I can eat this because I'm having my wisdom teeth out next week and can't eat it then.... :noway:

    Shannah- I will shred with you. I have not done it in about 2 weeks. I threaten to every day but never get around to it. If someone holds me to it maybe I will actually follow through.

    Busymom- you know it doesn't work that way. Besides I think you will find that what you can eat packs a ton of calories so eat better this week to pre-empt any excess next week. When I had my wisdom teeth out I ate pudding, hashed potatoes (extra butter and milk to make them gooier), custard, yogurts, applesauce, soup cooled down, cream corn, scrambled eggs with melted cheese....
    You can eat more than you think, I am sure there are much healthier ideas I did not think of but I was 17 so my mom spoiled me with a lot of sweet stuff!

    Lw- 146.4
    CW- 149

    I'm ok with this though really. It was cool to see my ticker at 49 lbs lost but last week was an insane loss I knew not to trust so I'm good. :smile:

    I've got a busy weekend hopefully filled with some sort of excercise. :happy:
