To everyone in the challenge, keep up the good work and keep on track!!! I'm really sorry I missed joining in with you all... But your successes are important and inspiring...
Still hoping to get a spot from a drop, or maybe addition0 -
LJSpady- You're dad is definitely eye candy! My dad, though not as buff or "hot", is also running circles around me. He runs 3 miles a day, and I'm so jealous.
I haven't been doing the best in the workout department this week. 2 of my kids had birthday parties, we're trying to get our house in order to put on the market, I got a teaching job for next fall and everything is just taking time away from that. I've luckily kept under my calories so that's good.
I've seen a lot of things on the forums about zigzagging calories, so I think as of next week, I'm going to try that! Anybody else do that have any comments about it? I'd love to hear your opinions!0 -
LJSpady--wow, you're dad is a hottie! Tell him he has new fans here.0

I zig zag my calories and it's working out pretty well for me. There's no real method to the madness (at least not for me) I'm just very strick to 1200-1500 cals for 3 days, do 1500-1700 for 2 days, and for the other 2 days (usually sat and sun) I eat whatever (within reason). I still log it all, which keeps me from going overboard. I will say that zig zagging is best when accompanied with regular working out. The point is to keep your body from going into starvation mode, but still burning a lot of calories.0 -

They just took pictures today to put my house on the market. I could have killed my kids chasing them around the house trying them not to leave anything out. A picture perfect clutter free house is close to impossible with three kids! Good luck with yours!

Congratulations to everyone involved here, even if you didn't lose anything. You are here and hopefully making good healthy choices. I'm wondering though what some of us have been doing to lose the relatively large amounts in only one weeks time. I hope you aren't just out there starving and dehydrating yourselves. I posted a pretty sizable loss but it was due to me not weighing for a couple of weeks prior to the start. I'm not going to starve myself or be extreme in any way about my offloading my additional tonnage. I want that sh it to STAY off! It's supposed to be a FUN challenge, we've already had enough acrimony and for lack of a better term, bullsh!t going on here. I am all for good natured ribbing and teasing, but some were getting a little serious and venomous.
Have fun, don't be a
With that serious stuff said, Let's keep up the efforts! And yes, Team DMB ROCKS! For me, it's not so much about the name, it's more about the teammates. My teammates just kick *kitten*!
Well I can't speak for anyone else but I am doing it in a very healthy way, counting calories, exercise, and plent of water. As I stated when I weighed in on Monday I am a Powerlifter who competes (or did) in the 308 weight class so I was purposely dieting high calories/protein and taking weight gain supps to stay in my desired weight class so my first few weeks will be big chunks then plateau out because I am shedding weight I have purposely been keeping on so my body is going to shed off what it wasn't meant to hold pretty quickly. I am making this big change in my life because the weight my body is holding is causing knee and heel problems. Also a good bit of me is muscle so i think the lightest I can get is about 250-260 and I would be under 8% Body fat so I will not be a serious threat for long, Lol!! Don't know much about the venomus trash talk so I have no comment there :- /0 -
