Lose 5 Pounds A Month July 2011 Challenge

Alright, I'm now officially headed in the wrong direction! Have to wonder if the weekends at the cottage are playing a role in this. Actually have been teetering between these two weights for awhile. Not discouraged, however, as I can only imagine what the scale would say if I were NOT exercising and watching what I eat :-)

Have a good week everyone!

hey sorry i did forget to sign in on friday just letting you know i lost 2lbs last week just came from a zumba class if you have never done do it at least once you will enjoy it and the hour goes by so fast had lots of fun tonight .

Sorry for the big delay between posts. I ended up being sick with Stomach Flu for over a week and couldn't keep any food/water down. I spent over 20 hours in the emergency room with IV fluids, ultrasounds, the works. @_@ But, I did lose a lot of weight from it! It might be temporary weight loss, but it's definitely the only positive thing to come out of being this sick!

I didn't weigh in yesterday or today I forgot. and I was way too busy to go for a walk last night so hopefully tonight I can.

I'm really happy with myself that I found joined this thread... AGAIN! Because I find that reading everyone's up's and down's really helps me stay on track!

Jessica-
Love your attitude! "get up, brush off, try again" I have had to do that a lot myself and every time I think we learn a thing or two about ourselves.

Amanda-
Thank you! And yes, 150 here we come...again! :laugh: and this time we will get past the 150 and into the 140's!

Sugar_Apple-
WTG! Blast that fat, girl!

mk820-
ha ha ha, have you ever tried the flavored skinny cow cheese wedges? I put one on broccoli (or zucchini) to add a little flavor, only 35 calories per wedge!

Terri-
Your soup sounds awesome, healthy and yummy!

Ailene-
Don't worry, I have been told that weight loss sometimes stalls a week. You will see a loss soon! :flowerforyou:

Hope everyone has an awesome day, don't forget to drink water!
Cheers,
Jenn

So....I ran 7.34 miles Thursday, then did my first 8K (5mile) race on Saturday, and I've still been doing Jillian's 30 day shred every morning..... With all that my weight was up - then I went to Chicago with the family for the weekend. I ate out every meal & ate anything & everything in sight at my cousin's party.:grumble: So this morning my weight is still way up - plus TOM is here! UGH! That is why I'm skipping. Hopefully come Friday I will be down to a more manageable weight. If not I will just log the gain & start over again.:ohwell:

Tomorrow is the last day for the 30 day Shred straight thru challenge I have been doing with Bru.:bigsmile: I'm just hoping the measuring tape is nice to me at least since the scale hasn't been lately. I have noticed my arms & shoulders are much more defined.:smokin: I feel stronger & its really not that bad anymore! Gotta love my girl Bru for always keeping me challenged & on my toes.

Count me in too!!

Hey everyone! Just checking in on how everyones goals are going this week?

I am in a WAY better place then I was last Weds. I have gotten back on the wagon. Working out, logging into MFP, and trying to stay accountable. I didnt do well at all over the weekend, but I won't let that stop me from losing! I was up 2-3 pounds last week. I'm hoping to be back to my start weight AT LEAST (if not a little lower!). If I stay on track I can do it! I did INSANITY yesterday for the first time and OHHHH MYYY is it tough! Hope everyone is doing the best they can! See everyone on Friday!
