Lose 2 lbs/mo to lose 8 lbs by New Year's - Week 2: Sept 16 - Sept 22

Very Few Rules

1. A New Thread will be started every monday
2. Weigh Ins are at the start of the week. Or whenever you feel like If you want to report your weight 1 time per month - totally fine with that.
3. Google Doc Spreadsheet is here: http://tinyurl.com/Lose8By2014
4. Post anything you want and support one another.
5. This is "not" a group - it is just a "free and open thread"

This thread was created specifically to promote a "Slow and Steady" approach to weightloss and fitness!

Sub challenges for fitness are welcome!

Enter your current weight and I will update the spreadsheet:

    So, its a gain of .6 but I'll take it. Between the eating out and the many adult beverages, it could have been worse!

    Have a good week everyone :happy:

    Change 0

    I am not unhappy at all because I kept my calories green all week and I worked out before 6 AM every weekday last week.

    As you all will see .. this challenge is about "slow and steady" - This is a lifestyle change

    good luck to all and see the spreadsheet!

    I have to be real careful with what I eat because of recent health problem, so I don't expect this kind of result every week. Would be nice, though, but not realistic. But I'll take it!!!

    Change: down 1 this week

    Been up and down the last few weeks, but ate pretty well this week and feel good. That is the main thing, right? I think I am at one of those points where your body has a set point (weight you were at for a long time in the past). Having a hard time getting down to 155 and staying there.

    134.0 this morning. Same as starting weight last week. However I joined the challenge mid week and my Monday weight was higher so hopefully I will see results next Monday! It's always hard because I work out during the week so my best results are usually Thursday or friday

    Well, at least it's not a gain... Not too bad considering I was traveling (no exercise time) and went to a wedding. I'll have more time to exercise this week, so I'm hoping for a loss next week.

    Missed the first week but in :bigsmile:

    SW: 146lbs
    CW: 147lbs
    GW: 138lbs


    I went up a little - but I've started lifting again so I hope that's the reason why :huh:

    I weigh in officially on a Wed - so I'll update tomorrow.

    Waist 30"


    Back again - I dropped back down to my starting weight so hopefully that means that I have lost 2lbs of fat and gained 2lbs of water weight from lifting - well a girl can dream :wink:

    Hopefully it will start going in the right direction over the next two weeks otherwise I may try dropping my calories (a little) in October.

    Oh I'm also tracking measurements as last time I did NROL4W I didn't lose weight but I did lose 8" :bigsmile:
