I lost another pound or so. Super happy as I haven't been working out at the gym (been doing heavy duty spring cleaning). Slow and steady is the best way for my anyway. :ohwell:

I stayed the same this week. I am quite alright with that. I have been back to accurately logging all my foods since Monday. I am really happy I took a couple weeks off because now it doesn't seem so daunting and tedious. I am actually excited to see my totals of the day and working towards meeting my protein and fat minimums. I am feeling really good!

Boing! That's the sound of me bouncing back up two pounds. I think I may fall back down a bit by tomorrow but all the birthday cake, pizza, ham, and other sins made it a challenging week. I'm just glad I'm still in positive (green) territory in terms of pace for this challenge. I'm 5 pounds from my MFP goal weight I set last August, as I get close it seems like I get a bit reckless. I can see that maintenance will be no picnic.

Many great losses coming in this week, some others are bouncing like me. It's just like the stock market, expect a choppy ride and enjoy watching your trend line downward. Keep Going.

Long or short, have a nice weekend.

Down 2 pounds! Finally a real move in the right direction. I really worked on my food and water and started 30DS besides my other workout. Seeing results gives me the motivation to keep going!!

Hello to all the Independents out there!! :bigsmile:

This week has been great food wise.... but not great walking wise - :devil: I think the devil made me do it - that is sitting and not walking.

I have lost 2.1 lbs this week with very little walking - just think what it could have been if I have gotten out of my chair. But, I am happy

I had a loss.

So here we go - onward and downward!!

I was due for a bounce-back and I got it. I still have 7 weeks to get 13 lbs, which is doable.

TurboTam

I'm down just over a half of pound. Still creeping along but in the right direction. I upped my calories because I've upped my workouts and I think I'm not eating enough because I bounce up and down all week long, which is normal but I'm tired and that's not normal! We'll see how it turns out next Friday! Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Still happy to be maintaining!!! I have 2 more, crazy, insane, food filled weeks left and then, hopefully, I can get back to the good stuff!!! I seem to be stuck in a black hole of apathy (food and exercise wise) and am hoping that I can dig my way out--how many calories does, digging yourself out of the doldrums burn???

Wow!!! I've seen a lot of good reports! And to those of us who are bouncing or maintaining, hang in there!!!

I'm a little late posting this week. I was out of town on 5/16. Considering that I was on vacation all week last week, I'm pretty pleased with my weight. I am a little concerned that I may not have been getting enough water (usually I chug between 2 and 3 liters/day), so I may go up a little when I resume that after traveling.

Hope everyone has a terrific and healthy week!

Oops, the scale went in the wrong direction. I've got to stay the course and watch out for the upcoming celebrations. I must learn how to make wiser food choices when I eat out. I tend to eat what I don't eat at home; and well the results on the scale shows it.

Was still the same Friday

I need to make some changes for my challenge.

Last evening my knee and leg started hurting cry which means I must cut back on walking. For those of you that don't know my history here is a short version: I was in a terrible car wreck almost 21 years ago - my DD and I were hit by a drunk driver head-on, then his pick-up flipped on top of our car.
Long story short both of my legs were crushed. I have had multiple leg surgeries in the past 20 years, so when my leg starts hurting I take it very seriously.

I am going to continue walking - just cut back on pace and the number of steps. In fact I am not going to try to get to 10,000 steps at this time. I was doing very well at 6000 + so that is where I am going to be for a while, then we will see. But, I will not rush it all.

Of course I am going to continue with my food - there is NOT a reason to stop that! bigsmile
So my new challenges will be:
1. Eat healthy, stay around 1200-1300 calories
2. walk when I can
3. Sunday is going to be a rest day from walking - but not from correct eating.

It looks like we have had some great losses for May!! Way to go all of you Independent Challengers!

I managed a 1 pound loss but it looks like I'll have to step up my game to reach my goal for this challenge. I'm currently 3.89% in the red

kimjutjor

No scale loss to report this week BUT I did shave 5 minutes and 45 seconds off my official 5K time.
