Nice work ladies!
You guys are doing awesome. Jenn you sound like your head is still in the right place, so I think you'll be fine ... just have to keep on keeping on. Days away have been my absolute downfall in the past. I go away fro a few days, don't track what I eat, and then it takes me weeks to get back on track, but you sound totally on to it! GO YOU!
I'm doing good, managed to run 3km without walking a few days ago, which is just massive for me! I have another mini triathlon next weekend, this one has a 5km run, so I'm going to attempt to run 5km one day next week! Then I can attempt to run the whole of my triathlon, which will be a first! I'm feeling great atm.
Happy Sunday everyone
Wow rach!! I couldn't even contemplate a 1k run let alone a 3 or a 5!!! It's all I can muster to run the whole track on my ea active!!! Think I'll try my biggest loser wii game this week.. See how that goes before I buy ea active 2...

Not sure why my post ended up in your quote Rachel! Damn IPhone!!0 -
Rach, running is something I look forward to doing. You are amazing. I have decided to try and aim to burn 3,500 calories again this week. My goal today is to get some good food back into the house.
Have a great Sunday everyone.0 -
Ok so while I was out getting in the good food, decided to hop on the scales for a mid week weigh in and get a sneak peak at what sort of damage I did with the 3 days away. Up another 300grams. So I have a lot of work to do now before Wednesday weigh in. Back to weighing and measuring all my food, no more guessing.0

I'm not trying to say that you shouldnt work your *kitten* off, but 300g could be just a normal peak during a week. I havent been counting at all for like three days and on top of that it is that awesome time of the month were i gain like 500 kg. Gonna drink water like a maniac to try to feel less like a manatee ( by that i mean bloated not like a happy water animal)0 -
Had to weigh in this morning for the 60lb by halloween challenge I've joined and I've lost another 3.2lbs!! So happy! Will try and get a little more off by wednesday!
Happy Monday to all!0 -
That is awesome!! Good job Chiliflea. you are doing great!
Not sure if I will beat the 3500 + 2 dog walks. I am at 2026 burned and that includes the 1 dog walk I have done. I have been doing finals this week for school so have slacked off on my calorie burning. Time to get back at it.
Happy Monday everybody.0 -
Well since i'm leaving my scale at home for the coming daysyou guys will get my weight today as well. My weight is 100.7...I have gained 1.2 kg. I blame ovulation, alcohol and cupcakes but most of all i blame me. How ever. Time to get focused all over again... I guess you guys want my weight in lbs as well so here it goes... 221.5 That SUCKS! gonna be a good girl now
Good luck to all of you!0 -
You will lose that quick enough, so don't worry. Ovulation really does not help. I'm hoping thats half my problem, not sure,:drinker: I think the menopause thing could be looming around the corner. (Also birthday food does help diets. I have a delicious fruit cake in my fridge I keep having and logging, but I'm sure a yogurt would be better)Well since i'm leaving my scale at home for the coming daysyou guys will get my weight today as well.

Haha, yeah it may be so. I hope the extra weight is going away soon enough.. Getting tired of standing fairly still... Fruitcake is so much more tasty than a good-for-you-yogurt You only have one birthday a year! 0 -
Weigh in tomorrow peeps!! Hope you're all having a good week xx0

Morning all
Weighed it at 91.5kg or 202lb, which I believe is a 1kg/2lb loss for me.
I should be really happy with that but I'm feeling a little down with the world this morning, what with the earthquake in Christchurch (which is thankfully a long way from us), my mum having gone back to the UK and I'm going to a friends funeral tomorrow. A lovely, lovely lady that I used to work with who has lost her battle with brain tumours, she was only 36.
Anyway, good luck to all you losers, hope the scales are kind to you all.

Well done on your weight loss! Will update the chart.
Sorry to hear you're having a hard week.. Glad you haven't been affected by the awful earthquake...
Condolences for your friend though... So sad when someone is taken after putting up such a fight.
Much love x0 -
Here is my weigh in for this week - 349 pounds for a 1.8 pound loss this week and a total of 26 pounds in the 5 1/2 wks I have been on MFP. I am happy with that loss, but my doctor isn't. I'm extremely confused and frustrated right now, not to mention very hormonal!0

I think that's a healthy weight loss chick... How much does your doctor think you should be losing?!
You should feel VERY proud of yourself - you're changing your whole lifestyle for the better and this can only be a good thing...0 -
Great to read all the progress peeps are making, GO LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADDDDDIIIIIESSSSS!!!
I'm feeling so much better about this week, having adjusted the food intake and increased the fibre. The weekend was a car crash of red meat and wine!! But the food supplements and vits the nutritionist gave me have really upped my energy levels. Nuts and seeds have replaced my chocolate fix's, so doing my best with that one and avoiding Freddos like hell! (oh and my pee is now luminous from the B vit complex - too much information for ya? It was for my boyfriend too - sorry!!).
The girls in my pilates class thought I looked slimmer tonight, so that was a nice pick me up, and I have just made a batch of soup for lunches this week! Man am I motivated or what!! Ha ha.
Good luck for tomorrows weigh in all

Whew, I am back to pre birthday weight, 103.5 kgs (228pounds).
Not fair that it goes on so much easier than it comes off.
Verity, you are not only motivated but motivating. Thank You.:flowerforyou:
I had a bit of time up my sleeve before starting work yesterday and was wondering around the city, so decided to pop into a fitness clothing shop. You know the sort where you need to be fit and skinny to fit into the clothes. One of my soap box beefs is how can fat people get thin if can't find comfortable exercise clothes. Anyway after wondering around in there for quite some time I was finally approched and asked could they help. I asked what size did they go to, oh generally a 14 was the reply. Don't know why she said this as, as I very calmly and nicely explained that even though I didn't look like it, I was exercising and attending classes and would love some pants that fitted. Well low and behold, they found some size 20's. (How dare they hide them). Well surprise, I tried them on and they fitted and a surprise from the girls they said they were too big (not use to how they should fit) and got me some 18's, which also fitted. YAY!! (they however only go to a 16 in tops) I picked up some singlet tops from a discount shop again surprise, they fitted. So I am kitted out now and will feel much more comfortable in ballet class. Next I might buy is ballet slippers. :laugh:
Now to make my high fibre wheatgerm muffins, thanks V, and I'm back on track.0 -
My goal this week is to continue doing my Jillian Michaels workout everyday and to meet my daily fibre requirement.

Wow Jen! That's a great story! Can't wait till that happens to me! I'm hoping the the skirt I bought off eBay a while back and was somehow too small (even though other clothes I have in the at size are too big) will fit me so I can wear it out on Saturday.. It was just that bit too snug when I tried it on last week , so with any luck it'll be ok this week!
It's only 3.30 am here (woke up to 4yr old crying as his monkey had fallen out of bed) so haven't got on the scales yet but I'm a bit too excited about weigh in to go back to sleep!0 -
So glad you are safe. I was pleased to find this post from you as I was concerned not knowing what part of New Zealand you are in. It is so sad for Christchurch. You are having a very very emotional time. I wish I could give you a big hug, but take strength knowing that we are all here for you and sending you lots of love. Congrats on your weight loss.

Yip dee hoootie last week's weigh in was 228.36 and this weeks is 227.26. Just over a pound off and I have the rest of the week to try and improve on that.
Fingers crossed my 5 weeks at staying roughly the same is over for a while, as I still have a long way to go. So we are roughjy 4 weeks to deadline now, if I make it to 220 or near I'll be happy with that.
Well done losers!!! Keep up the good work and thanks for the support

I had a look at the website, it's a really good idea and I think they do a free trial. Are you finding this type of snacking is really helping you hit calorie goal without resorting to sweets or high sat fat treats?0 -

Yippee...... You did so well. I too would like to make it to 220 pounds by our deadline, which should just put me under the 100kg (99..9kg). You have really helped me to get motivated again. A BIG THANK YOU. Daily exercise and fibre this week. I reached my fibre target today. Day 1 done.0 -

I've found it brilliant V... And they are mostly helping with my 5 portions of fruit/veg a day too as the dried fruit ones are yummy! I'm finding I'll have a punnet of something for my afternoon snack - keeps me going till dinner time and gives me a little energy boost to last the rest of the day!!!
If you follow the link it'll give you your first box for free and your second box half price... then you can cancel if you don't think it's helping you...
My weight for the week is the same as it was on monday... 283.2lbs
Hope everyone else is finding happy scales this morning!

My weigh in for the week: 254.4! Which puts me at a 21 lb loss since I started MFP on Jan 2! Also only 4 lbs from my target in our challenge. :happy: I'm actually wearing old shirts I haven't been able to wear in years. I hope everyone has an amazing week!0

That's fantastic!!!
I'm only 3.2lbs away from the goal too and we still have 4 weeks!!! I'm tempted to change my goal another 5lbs down!! Or even 10lbs!!
I'm amazed at how well we've all been doing - especially at myself... I've always quit before getting even this far but I'm so determined and the weight loss is such a boost... Makes it all feel worthwhile... Can't wait to see what we can actually achieve by the 23rd March..0 -
Great job girls, here's to another good week ahead of us. Jen I think I'm with you on the fibre front, that's my focus this week.0

My goal for this week is to do 100 pushups. You r all doing great!0
