Hi,
What I wrote yesterday was for this week. Not sure what day I'm supposed to be posting stats. I weigh on Friday, so let me know if that day is okay to post or when I should post.
Here is my information.
Starting weight in February: 132.5
Last week: 127.5
This week: 127 (I finally lost after 7 weeks of a plateau!!!)
July 4th Goal: 122
Today I did 60 minutes on the treadmill, which was over 4 1/2 miles and 500 calories. This week I will also take an aerobics class, run, and do P90X. Trying to not snack this week. Snacking is my weakness. I hope to stay within my calories every day.
I do not measure inches. I just use my clothes as a reference.
Good luck!0 -
Checking in:
Current weight: 159
Pounds lost since last week: 1lb
I counted my calories, did hot yoga every day of the week, and cycling to and from work every day.
I've been measuring myself and I highly recommend it to everyone! It took me almost 2 weeks to lose 1lb, but in just this week I lost 7 inches overall! So, get to measuring - it's a big motivator, especially if your scale is being stubborn. :grumble:
This week's projected workout: (it's expected to rain, rain, rain all week so likely no cycling :frown: )
Monday: hot yoga (done!), start the two hundred sit-up plan.
Tuesday: hot yoga
Wednesday: hot yoga, two hundred sit-up plan
Thursday: hot yoga (I'm a broken record!)
Friday: hot yoga, two hundred sit-up plan
Saturday, Sunday and Monday are likely to be write-off days, as I'm going out of town for the long weekend. So, no exercises, but I'll try my best not to go crazy with the calories. :drinker:
Great progress everyone! Keep it up!!!0 -
Starting Weight: 162

Hey! I just read all the posts and I am motivated!!!
Week 2 check-in:
Current weight: 137
Pounds lost since last week: 0, zip, zero, nada, :frown:
Question of the week: Are you tracking inches too? I just started tracking inches this weekend so I'll report those at the end of the week.
today my son was sick so I was on my feet making chicken noodle soup for about 2 hours.
I need to consider mini-goals cuz not losing a lb. has really ticked me off.0 -
Current weight: 163lbs (WHAT. I gained 1.2lbs Oops!! Lots of graduation parties this past week. What better way to celebrate than with cake?)
Pounds lost since last week: 0. I'm back on track though after a week of horrible temptations.
Question of the week: Are you tracking inches too? Sort of. I've been at this for five months and have measured myself three times. I just never think about it and instead judge by my clothes.0 -
Current weight: 151
Pounds lost since last week: 0 :-(
Question of the week: I haven't been tracking inches but need to start. Judging mostly by trying on my "skinny jeans" and they are getting closer and closer!
My goal is to chug water since it's TOM and do my 5k training, Pushup challenge, and 30DS consistently!0 -
Current weight: 155lbs
Pounds lost: 1
Question of the week. I haven't been tracking inches but try on a pair of pre-pregnancy jeans every couple of weeks to see my inches progess.0 -
Hi ladies! I'll weigh in tomorrow and am excited because I know I finally broke through my plateau! Just want to reiterate - measure, measure, measure! It is such a better indicator of how well you are doing. My scale hadn't budged for a long, long time but I lost 4 inches in one week and I have a waist again :-). That was two weeks ago, last week nothing budged but this week I know I'm down, just not sure of the number or inches yet.
Keep up all the good work girls! I'm so happy for all of you for making this commitment to yourselves to live healthier lives :happy: .0 -
Hello Hello
My current weight is 176.4
I lost 2.6 lbs this past week.
I haven't been tracking my inches. I've only measured my self when I first started this journey. So I'll take some measurements tomorrow morning. Trying to stay consistent.
I've really had some difficulties with the after dinner snacking. I've been drinking water and decaf green tea. It seems to be helping to curb the cravings. Ahh!! I hope I can keep up this discipline. Actually I hope it soon turns into a life style and not something I have to work so hard at.0 -

Great progress everyone! Keep it up!!!
great idea to record our exercise too
Yesterday I did 75 minutes of walking at 4mph, I was planning on doing JM no more trouble zones last night but I was up so early and was super busy all day by the time the kids went to bed I just collapsed had I not have done my walking (whilst kids were sleeping and hubby stayed home with them) I would have done the workout
Today I plan on doing the above workout.
p.s. if any of you want an extra motivating friend please feel free to add me Nice when we are doing the same challenge
Good luck this week guys 0 -
A couple of edits to my last post:
I had my boyfriend read the scale for me this morning (the lines are small and I didn't have my glasses) and he told me it was 158, more like 157.5, rather than 159! So, I've lost more weight than I thought! 2lbs!! WOOT!!!
Also, instead of doing the two hundred sit-ups, I think I'm going to grow a pair and try the C25k.
Let's go, girls!0 -
keep it up everyone!!0

This is going to be a rough week. Today is my wedding anniversary and Thursday is my husband's birthday. We're going to be celebrating all week. On top of that, it's my TOM. Talk about when it rains, it pours. I'm going to eat super strict all day, keep working out and we'll see how dinners go...
I managed Level 3 of 30DS last night and followed that up with a 40 minute dog walk. My pup is a little chunker and when I tried to run she whined. I think I'll be leaving her home tomorrow night!
I weighed in this morning and am down 1 lb but I typically like to weigh in on Friday. I think I'm going to stick with my Friday weigh ins...
And to answer the question of the week- I absolutely measure. I haven't been dropping pounds too quickly but the inches are coming off quite nicely.
My workout plan for the week is to work out every day. I will do a Jillian dvd 5x, walk/run 4x and ab work every night.
Happy Tuesday ladies!0 -

OK, today's my day to weigh in- lost 1 lb. CW= 136 :happy:
I'll do measurements on Saturday.
I need to calculate an accurate bfi which will no doubt make me feel better about building muscle vs. Weight loss. It will be slow.0 -

Not so great. But I'm taking a chill week, and hopefully it'll keep going down as I start eating back every single damn exercise calorie this week.0 -
Hey Ladies,
I have good news and bad news...good news first: I haven't gained any weight...yet. Bad news: I broke my little toe! On top of that, we are in the middle of remodeling my kitchen so all I've eaten is crap. Yuck. I have an 8 hour endurance run coming up in 5 weeks that I may have to pull out of because my toe makes it painful to do anything but the elliptical. Grrr...0 -
Ouch! your poor toe!0

My inspiration for this week:

Have a good week everyone!0
