Finally lost a pound!!! Only took three weeks!! I just up'ed my calories, maybe adding 30 day shred to my workout routine, warrented a calorie boost, we'll see.
Going swim suit shopping tonite, I would love a two piece with the bottom that looks like a little skirt, but I'm not sure if I'm (or anyone who my see me) is ready for that. Taking the hubby with me, he's my biggest fan and my worst critic.

Congrats on the losses.
Ok last night I gave up on this challenge because I haven't budged for more than a month and was even up a pound from my low. This after more than a month of lower calories and more intense work outs (yes I eat at least some if not most of my exercise calories and my calorie goal was only set at 1.5 pounds a month at the lowest). I reset my calorie goals higher and even went over that a bit even though I walked 5K with intervals of C25K running in yesterday so I had enough calories to stay under. I finally gave up and reset my weight at 234 because that has been the lowest I achieved recently. So of course today I am finally back down again to where I reached in May. So I am going to try to figure out if I am or am not stuck in a plateau until then here is my progress:
SW 7/01 - 235
CW 7/08 - 234.6
7/15 - 233.4 (my previous low for May)
7/22 - GW - 231
7/29 - GW - 230
If I am stuck I will try to maintain at 233 if not I may make this challenge yet!?0 -
July 1st: 163
July 8th: 162
July 15th:160
I am super excited about next weeks weigh in because I will measure and see what the months progress has been as far as inches lost. I feel like I am fully back in the game now, and I have been eating better and working out as much as I can with my crazy schedule.
Congrats to all who lost!
ps Joe, you wont "screw up"! Keep plugging along and do what you have been doing because it's working. :drinker: LOVE having a guy in our group!0 -

Well at least I'm not at the 195++I was last week. I don't know what is going on with me. If the scale doesn't drop tomorrow, then I'm posting my gain officially & will just start again from that. Funny thing is a coworker asked me this morning how much more I've lost because I look it apparently - she was shocked when I told her I gained 5! :laugh:0 -

I am seeing A LOT of good weigh-ins today! WOOHOO!!! Congratulations, y'all! I do not weigh in until tomorrow morning, and I hope I bring some of this goodness with me!
Since I only weigh in once a week (at my meetings,) I don't ever have a clue what my weigh in will be like. I went overboard on some cake last night and had 2 servings instead of 1. I was studying for a test for HOURS and was really throwing myself a pity party. I did what I normally do--- ate to make myself feel better! :sad: The good thing is that not only did it not make me feel better, but it actually gave me a stomach ache. Lesson learned.... well, hopefully! Even though it isn't a huge deal, it is my first slip-up in 3 weeks so I am not too confident about facing the scale in the morning!
On the bright side, I only have to lose .4 lbs to reach my 5%! I really hope I made that goal this week. My mom has promised me a mani/pedi if I do!
Jenn--- You should be really excited about your next weigh in, and not only because of measurements. 150's!!!! I think I will break into them with tomorrow's weigh in but we'll see. I am REALLY looking forward to when we're both in the 150's and can start screaming about the 140's!
Terri--- Sorry your neck is still hurting, and feel better soon!
Bru--- WHOA. That's a heck of a lot less of you! Great job!0 -
