  • I would love to join y'all!!
    I'm a 22year old nursing student. I lift weights mon-fri, and as soon as the now melts I'll be running in the mornings again. I put on 5lbs in the past month after maintaining all winter, so I need motivation to quit binge eating.

    CW: 138lbs
    GW: 128-126lbs

    UGW: 117-122lbs

    Hi all! Please add me as a friend on MFP if you haven't already! Love all the motivation on here!!
    @huango congrats on the recent loss!!

    Has anyone tried the app Spitfire Fitness? It's a training app with workouts created by nutritionists and trainers and it's pretty awesome! I'm only on my first week, but I'm trying out the 12 wk strength training program on it. And it's free to download!!

    So yes, I gave in and weighed myself.
    Lost 1.2# in 4weeks. I'll take it!!! Wooohooo!

    That's 14.1# lost since January 1st
    (14weeks, so about 1# per week, which is totally awesome since I'm so close to goal weight and am so short).

    ---->>>> THIS is the lowest weight I've been since hitting puberty, or at least the last 20years! On my way!!!

    According to my updated spreadsheet, my TDEE = 1650. Woohooo!
    The IIFYM TDEE calculator says 1490.
    That's 1100calories MORE per week that I get to eat!!!

    Today is my rest day, but I'm all pumped up from the good news that I want to go lift some heavy weights!!! (to hurry up and reveal more lean muscles!!!)
    :)

    @ear1011 "I like how @huango posted her motivation! You will have to post a pic of you in it when you meet your goal!!"
    Hahahahaa: you'll have to wait a while.
    I should get this sign to put over my body, because my body is working to reform/rebuild/transform itself.

    Hey all! Glad to see so many on here. communicating daily is a great motivator. I am back in NYC and back to routine. Now, it's time to get back in that gym.

    @jlkermode can I use that strength training app easily while in the gym? I am beginning the running for weight loss app Monday.

    @huango Amanda, I am not sure how you feel about your body, but I think it is smoking hot. If I were in your shoes, I would focus on keeping tone and if loss happens, it is a bonus.

    I am realizing I am not putting in as much effort as I should to obtain the results I want. So, my goal this week is to write down my exact goals. If I complete that quicker than expected, I will then map out when/how to get there step by step. I do know I want this belly and these big hips/bottom to disappear, if only I could spot reduce! LOL

    Ugh... I feel like I've lost my weight loss mojo! I think it was a mixture of feeling good about being only 7 lbs away from my goal and the fact that it was Easter!
    I haven't been running for a while either, stopped pre preparing meals, and really been less strict with myself. I need to get the mindset back. Although I haven't gained, I haven't lost anything this week either and I just don't feel good in general.
    I need some supportive kicking up the butt people! Lol

    Still a bit chilly outside. Did not want to go to the gym but got there and did cardio. Tomorrow is a lifting day and I like those days so much better. Unfortunately, I am finding that at this age I need the cardio as well. Ugh. I can't wait for warmer weather and getting my cardio from fun outside activities!
  • Today is the first day since Easter I'm getting my mojo back. Went overboard on Easter and wasn't able to hit the brakes. Too much chocolate. Hope I can get back into a routine, weather was nice today so I got out for 4 miles this morning and did some strength training this evening.

    Sitting here just finishing my coffee and then will lift. Its pretty nice out today so I think I will go for a hike as well later this afternoon. Yay for the outside.

    @nosoda0 - was going to just let the morning drag on but you have motivated me this morning. Good job yesterday. Getting out of a rut is hard. I just turned 50 and sometimes moving seems a bit overrated.

    @xSarell - good morning.

    @stepherz84 - how are you doing this morning?

    Stats:
    April 1st -153.6
    April 5th - 151.0
    April 12 - 150.0

    @stepherz84 - how are you doing this morning?

    I'm good actually, I'm trying to get back the positivity! I actually looked at my weekly losses and it wasn't as bad as I thought. Although it felt like I hadn't lost anything because I weigh everyday, actually I did lose based on my weekly weigh ins....

    Actual loss days
    1st April -161
    2nd April -160
    12th April -159 (took 10 days to lose this pound and felt like forever)

    Weekly weigh ins
    1st April - 161
    8th April - 160
    15th April - (159 or less as its only the 12th today :wink: )

    ... So this cheered me up :blush:
