    Consistent progress, am pleased with myself. Will have to up my exercise though, don't want to fall back into old habits. Good news is that my jeans are not feeling quite so tight, and this weekend my husband noticed a difference!!

    1/15 163.8
    1/22 163.0

    Whee! Finally! I think I may try to get some running in this weekend and see if that gives me a little boost. 150 would be awesome even though my original goal was 145. I've been doing more with weights and less cardio and I think that's why my progress is so slow on the scale.

    I was down, then way up this week (like 2 or 3 lbs after Saturday) because of a holiday party that consisted of unlimited drinks. I ran 2.5 miles before the party and walked an additional mile at the mall trying to burn calories in advance. The fact that I'm a little lower than I was last week is encouraging and likely due to my delicious Tex-Mex chicken lunches and tomato soup dinners for the week!


    Does anyone have any recommendations for low-calorie (500 and under) and low-fat (20g or under) make ahead meals for lunches or dinners? I'm starting to repeat some of my meals which only leads to me food-cheating when I get tired of eating the same thing every day.


    Keep up the great work everyone!

    01/15: 151.2... I caved to my favorite Mexican restaurant last night or this would have been lower like it was yesterday :\
    01/22: 150.8… not much loss, but considering I had a holiday party on Saturday that lasted until 3am, and the mid week snow storm that prevented my run, I’m totally okay with this progress :)

    I'm a little late to this challenge, but thought I'd hop on board anyway to try to stay motivated.

    Starting weight on MFP: 167
    Current weight (as of yesterday): 158

    Here's to hoping I can stick with it!

    Long story short I'm bad with scales (hard surfaces only durp). I can only guess but doing some uuh “science” I believe my original starting weight to have been around 228.5 and I’m now at 227….was 226 before I went to the gym…. Interesting.

    W1: 1/15 -228.5
    W2: 1/22 – 227 – 1.5 loss? -I’ll have to aim for 117 lbs before Easter to be sure ( :

    I like making salad with grilled chicken on it and since I'm TRULY a thing of laziness, I get the Fresh Express salad (either Farmer's greens or American) and the pre-cooked chicken and then toss it together with a bit of 1000 Island dressing. Nom Nom! (lunch).

    Allrecipes.com as some great low calorie meals and just great meals that *happen* to be low calorie. There's more there than I could list, but you could check it out :)
