    Wow!! Rack great chart thanks so much for putting this all together!

    We're all doing so well so here's to keeping this going through this next week!

    Goals for this week are to keep training as much as I have been, water water water, and eat more veggies.

    Hi everyone :)
    I hope you are all okay?

    This week I need to work out more.
    I'm going to start Jillian Michaels 30 day shred. Unfortunately I am not at home every night so I cannot do everyday, but I can do 4 times a week :)
    I'm going to aim for at least 3 :D

    Today, I finally went to the gym and tried a Yoga class. I made myself go to the other side of the room, away from the door so I wouldnt be able to walk out during class. LOL...It was much better than the boring DVDs and was not as difficult as I thought it was going to be. Of course I wasnt able to stand on my head like a couple of the other ladies in the class but I think I did pretty good for my first time. Also, the instructor and one of the ladies in class said this was an intermediate/advanced class. So, kudos to me for making it through the 1 hour class. :drinker: (water) The downside is that you dont burn alot of calories. I burned about 180 cals during the 1 hour class. My goal is to start doing Yoga at least once a week.
  • This week I'm sticking to my cals, getting my water in (I'm usually good at this but i've let it slip a bit recently) and NOT going out drinking until the 12th of February. That heavy night out plus cheeseburger and chips on the way home at 6am didn't do anything for my scales yesterday!

    Hope everyone has a good week!

    Thanks for the relink to week 2!!!! I LOVE THE CHART!!! I am really enjoying this board too. It helps you see that you're not as different than anyone else on this quest to get a little healthier (or the quest to fit into those jeans). Whatever the motivation for each of us to do this, being able to share and celebrate the victories as well as talk about the shortcomings is such a wonderful tool.

    My goal this week is to drink more water. I'm not even drinking 4 cups a day. Thanks everyone for all of your postings. They are really helping me feel that I'm not all alone! Here's to a great week!

    Oh, ladies... I just have to say... I told my husband I lost 4.5 this first week (I know, it's probably water weight!)... and he got all excited and joined so he's going to be tracking on myfitnesspal! :) See all the lives you've touched!
  • Wow! Everyone is doing so great! Thank you for including me! My goal is to try to stay closer to my sugar levels - 24g a day is so hard to stay under! Anyone have any ideas? Great job ladies!!

    Awesome job on the chart and the weight loss!

    My goals this week are to keep pounding the P90X workouts. Eat enough protein. Drink all my water.

    I have to end this week strong as I am spending the weekend in Rome this week and I'm not going to be able to stick to my regular workout schedule for about 3 days. But I WILL be walking my butt off seeing the sights so there is hope for me.

    Alright, I'm ready for Texas to warm up a little bit!! I love my winters and I love my snow, but without a gym membership it's making it difficult for me to go running. lol

    We don't have a water cooler at work anymore, so it's making it a little more difficult for me to drink water throughout the day, but they said it should be replaced soon.

    Positive attitude today!!!

    Although i'm not on your graph, I would really like to be. I've been at this for 12 days and I've followed it PERFECTLY for 11.
    My goal for this week is to NOT look at the scale till weigh in, and not get discouraged while i'm on PREGNESONE!!
    4 more days and then I'll be off this steroid! I really love this site! Thanks for all your stories ladies and gents. Hit me up, I
    would love to have more friends and inspiration!

    WOW - aren't we doing GREAT?!?!?!?!

    Hoping to lose 1 or 2 lbs this week. Want to up the exercise a bit but have to be gentle as I was quite dizzy and sick yesterday so may not be able to do much. I want to drop another 3lbs this month to get me under the 12st mark so will really have to push myself as I've been finding it hard to lose anything since I've not got much further to go til target.

    Awesome job everyone! My goal for this week is to keep the momentum going, get in 5 workouts again and drink more water.

    So i'm a little late posting, I’ve unfortunately been on hiatus for a couple weeks but am now back and ready to lose! I weighed in yesterday at 151.0lbs (the Monday before x-mas I was 150.2, so I’m happy with only .8 of a gain in the past couple weeks of splurging)
    I plan on drinking 80oz of water everyday, eat within my cals, exercise at least 4-6 days a week and mostly to only eat out once this week!
    Good luck to everyone here this week!
  • I went to my endocrinologist yesterday, and they made some adjustments, so my main goal this week will be to just maintain.

    I'm a diabetic on an insulin pump, and I ended up taking in extra calories yesterday due to low blood sugars. I'm going to see how today goes, and if I have the same problem today, I'm going to start readjusting!!

    Other than that, if I can get all systems running, my ultimate goals will be:

    1. Drink all water
    2. Stay under sodium
    3. Minimum 4 cardio workouts. Bonus: one toning/strength workout
    4. Stay within calorie deficit and only use 1/2 of exercise calories.

    Rock 'em Sock 'em this week, ladies!!!!

    Good morning Pin-ups!

    Rach the chart is awesome and again thank you for keeping it up especially with all our new ladies!

    As a group we lost 226 lbs! That is phenominal! Woo Hoo! What a great start!

    stephensgirl - You rock! Outstanding week you had!

    As Rach said let's stay positive, weight loss is nothing to new to any of us and we all know that you have good weeks and some not so good weeks. The key is not to be too hard on yourself or give up!

    Have a fabulous day!

    I'm impressed by the number of posts since last night. I feel late to the party!

    stephensgirl- How on earth did you manage to lose 22lbs in a week?!

    My goals for the week: Do my six scheduled workouts (Already a third of the way there!), not over indulge at the potluck or happy hour this week, and meditate 3x.

    I will work out more this week.
    I will drink more water than orange juice.
    I will get to 100lbs lost in the next two weeks!

    Hahahaha I could drink all my calories for the day in orange juice and chocolate milk. :blushing:

    Me too! I could seriously drink a gallon of orange juice a day, not eat anything and be happy.

    Just checking in for Week 1's weigh in. I work tonight and will weigh there. Send it to you tonight :)

    This week is gonna kick *kitten*. The first one was a little rough, but aren't first weeks usually. Learn from your mistakes and keep on going :)
