Hi all,
I tried counting weeks and days, but my count is off from Mark's last weekly post. All I know is, it's WEDNESDAY in many parts of the world, so time to check in!!! I think our illustrious leader is probably bonked from all that running he's been doing, so may have slipped his mind that a whole week has gone by
So, time to check in for 9/18/13, kiddies! Recommended posts are:
1. Current weight (optional)
2. weight lost since last week
3. Other accomplishment or NSV (non scale victory) for the week
4. Goals for next week
5. weight to go by Christmas
It's not Wednesday yet for me (fortunately!), so I'll be seeing how much weight evaporates off of me over night, and will check in then.
Cheers, all (and fingers crossed for a drop in numbers!),
Mary Ann

So happy with all the support and positive feedback I see everyone is giving. I just posted on my wall that Im kinda bummed im not losing weight but I keep getting comments and I feel like my stomach is pulling in so Im trying not to complain.
Here's my stats.

2. 0 lbs lost since last week
3. Lots of positive comments, from my wife, my business partner (a personal trainer in peak shape)
4. Goal is to make that Spartan race completion this sunday and if possible lose a couple lbs.. Havent eaten the best but my workouts for the week are still pretty strong. I try to congratulate myself when I do eat healthy and remember that its a lifestyle change not a short term diet.

It has been a tough two weeks. I have struggled with the scale even though I could tell a difference in my body, shape, and the way my clothing was fitting. I am glad I persevered and did not stop what I have started. I know that I can do this ONE POUND AT A TIME!!!0 -
I'm with you, ibculverized! I've had a rough two weeks, too. I finally saw a bit of a drop this morning, which was the encouragement I needed. I try not to obsess about what it says, and concentrate on how my clothes fit and the changes I seeing in the mirror (at least, I think I'm seeing changes!). And of course, knowing that I'm on the Right Path.
I'm hoping to push just a little harder so that I can achieve my goal by Christmas, like the rest of you. Although I know I'll get there eventually by doing what I'm doing, I also know that if I work a little harder and cheat a little less right now, I'll get to go shopping for some cute spring outfits! Gotta have that motivation :flowerforyou:0 -
1. Current weight 168 lbs
2. weight lost since last week: I'm not really sure because I was off on my weight last week (I hadn't weighed myself in a couple weeks and was lower than I thought)
3. Other accomplishment or NSV (non scale victory) for the week :: fitting (squeezing) into pants a size smaller! They are snug but they zip and I can't still breathe!
4. Goals for next week :: I want to get to 165 but I'll take 167 lol
5. weight to go by Christmas 18lbs0 -
1. 187.4
2. 0.2 down
3. NSV - those C25K weeks are ticking by and most of the time, it's seeming easier rather than harder. Yes!
4. Goals for the week: A better week of eating, for sure! Between having a very sick little boy most of last week, working a 12 hour night shift Friday, and coming home to a still-sick kid and sicker husband, the sleep-deprivation is taking its toll and I've been mindlessly eating way too much crap the last few days.
5. weight to go by Christmas: 22.40 -
I'm not abandoning MFP- but I won't weigh in til Monday.
Long story but the gist- I am at home sick
Boo hoo,
Keep up the great work everyone!0
