Sleek September SIXERS wk 4

Hey Ladies. Sorry I have been MIA. I completly feel off the wagon. I have been avoiding the scale and MFP - like if I didn't log or weigh-in the weight I have gained was not there.... :sad: I don't know why I do this... I was SO close to my goal... and now, most likely, will have to start over again... I am back now... and I am going to try to get back to where I was 152... by the end of the challenge!

Here is my weigh in update from my wall on Sunday:
Dear Mr. Scale, I killed it this week. I ate clean. I traded my favorite 1000 calorie mall meal for a 300 calorie sub. I balanced my proteins, fats, and carbs and kept my sodium in check. I ran 3.5 miles and had another mile in me. I signed up for a 5k in october and a 10k in November. Yeah, that's right 10. I did 3 sets of 8 boy pushups. All while having a chest cold, edema in my left foot and half my big toenail pulled off my right. You may take your stubborn +.02 pounds for the week and stick it. Not So Respetfully, Suedre

Since then, I went on a five hour fifteen mile hike, did a high intensity pool class, and BOSU step all while managining my various illnesses and a death in the family and preprations for an upcoming week long vacation. That scale just keeps inching up a little more each day. I'm trying not to get discouraged because I know I'm giving it 110%, but I feel pretty beat up, tired, and hungry today. I'm hoping tomorrow will be a much better day.

Hey Ladies,
I do not have progress to report this week. I have not gotten on the scale, I don't want to. I am actually giving myself a by-week(like they do in football). I went out on a boat with friends on Saturday and got a little burnt on my back. I have not been able to put on a sports bra, much let move around in one. So needless to say I have not gotten much exercise these last couple of days. I was feeling a little better this morning, but my brother is town and since our guest room isn't finished he has to sleep on the couch. I work out in the mornings and he is still on AZ time(compared to GA). So I am trying to be considerate, even though it's not helping me. I have however been watching what I eat and not over extending on my calories for the day.
But yes I should be back on track next weigh-in!

Well, I gained this week. I started back into running just before weighing in last week, so I think that has something to do with it. I remember when I started running back in the spring, I gained at first. I never lost then, but I wasn't eating as healthy as I am now.

I posted this on Facebook Monday, so now I'm posting it here to help keep me accountable. I have decided to enter the Run Too Overcome 5k on March 26. Don't know how well I'll do or if I'll even be able to run the whole thing by that time, but I'm going to enter. They also have a 1 mile Kids Fun Run that my kids are excited about doing also.

Amy I am so proud of you. :flowerforyou: I know you can do this. You have lots of time to train. Now that the summer is coming to an end and the weather is cooling down you get right back at it I am sure. I started a new work out program today I just hope I can keep it up. Its called melt it off with Mitch Gaylord. It is pretty tough. I just finished my first day. Keep in touch my Friend.

Kel

I'm here, just not on the boards as much. Been soooo tired. But doing really well. Got on the scale this morning and I have lost all that I gained from this week. That just proves that if you fall off the wagon, hop right back on before it leaves you behind and you can't get it back.
I've also been thinking about doing a 5K run/walk next month. It's for breast cance research, so a really great cause to walk for.

Mom, hope your settling in at your new home now.

Lindsey, hang in there girl. I know what you mean about the ultrasound. I've been in a similar spot before. Good luck!

Susan, I loved your post! Hang in there, it may take a while to show up, but your doing great!

Everyone else, hope all is well. The weekend is coming soon, so have a great one!

Lindsey. I am so sorry. HUGS. we are all here for you!

Lindsey, I'm so sorry that you have to go through that. I've had a miscarriage myself the first pregnancy and then within a year got pregnant with my first DD. You'll have to take your time, but it does get better, I promise.

Lindsey, I am so sorry about your loss. My heart aches for you. I hate that you are having to go through this. There are no comforting words I can possibly supply, but I want you to know that you have been and continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. I'm around if you need a listening ear.

Hello everyone... Didn't post this week, so I decided just to wait till next week. Work has been soooo incredibly crazy. I certainly hope that education is around till I retire. The powers that be seem to throw sticks in the air and decide what we will do this week. When will they understand that it isn't one thing that keeps children from learning. Maybe they are, some just to the best level they can. Sorry we all can't be Einsteins. We are asking our kids to do what we as adults don't.... it's crazy and I feel a bit crazy from it. My weight certainly shows it. Up another 2 lbs. Can't work out yet, seeing a doctor for knee rehab, and I am frustrated as hell!!!!! I think I will take a long walk today. It is finally cool here. YEA!

Lindsey- So sorry to hear. I hope and pray that you will be okay.

I will try to check back in later...
Sandy
