Hi Mark!
1. My current weight is 186
2. Despite sticking to my goals and all of the exercise I'm doing I did mot lose anything this week. I'm hoping it's because I've been lifting a lot and I gained muscle, but IDK.
3. NSV: 3 people said I looked like I lost lot of weight. 23lbs is not really thay much in comparison to some people, but when you take into consederation I'm only 5' tall, it's a lot for me. I've been exercising a lot more than I was and came up with an exercise schedule which I began implementing this week that will allow me to fit 10 hours of exercise into my week, despite my strange working hours. Started taking multivitamins, fish oil and probiotics again. I was doing it last years, but stopped. Added warm water and lemon to my morning regimine.
4. Goal for next week is to lose 2 to 3 lbs. Plus, keep a closer eye on sodium, which I think could aso be a roblem behind my no loss week...water retension.
5. My ultimate goal by christmas is to reach 156, my final goal weight is to get between 100 and 105 lbs by July 1st.0 -

CW: 142.0
Up 0.4 from last week (but I didn't really believe the 1.8 drop last week, anyway)
7 lbs to go - that's only 1/2 lb per week!
NSV: The "fat shorts" I was forced to buy last summer are feeling a little loose... and both hip and waist measurements are down from last check ten days ago. Woo hoo!
Goals: keep up the lifting, and TRY to find time to work out the abs. I am a total loser at this, and I really need to build core strength!
Great work, everyone!! This is a brand new week - let's make it a good one!!0 -
1) CW: 225
2) 0 lost this week
3) 26 pounds to lose
4) NSV: My body feels stronger and I can see and feel a difference in my body image. Clothes fit better. I did 10 miles one night on the stationary bike. I am averaging 7.5 miles a workout. Was able to increase my workouts from 30 to 40 min.
5) Goals: Lose 2 pounds, continue my 40 min workouts 4x a week, adjust my calorie intake a little to see if it helps with my hunger, weight loss, and being so TIRED during the day.
Going to stick with it because eventually the scale will lean in my favor
Great work everyone!!0 -
CW: 204
Lost this week: 0.8
Pounds to lose: Not sure, will decide and post it next week.
Goals: I need to get organized! It's easy to screw up when you don't have food prepared and I did that twice this week, got home late, was tired and didn't bother to plan for the next day so I ended up grabbing a bagel at the coffee shop and once I'm on the downhill slide I just keep sliding. So getting organized and if I have a mess up not letting it mess up the whole day is what I'm going to work on this week. Also making exercise a priority. I have a tendancy to let that be the thing that I skip if something interrupts my schedule so I'm going to make it a priority and everything else will have to wait!0 -
1. CW 222.8
2. Lost 1.6 this week
3. NSV - a couple of things that were really tight are actually getting baggy
4. Goal for next week - have a 70,000 step week.(not sure if I will ever make this one)

How long have you been going?
When I first started getting serious about the exercise portion, I went up 2.5 lbs and stayed for 2.5 weeks. I was so sad.0 -
Ditto on no loss for a week or two (gained, actually!). Not sure what it is, but it was like my body freaked out and held on to everything it could. Eventually it relented, though, and the scale started to move in the proper direction.
This is the pep talk my husband gives me: We are doing all the right things. We are eating better and exercising more. It will make a difference in the long run.0 -
