Week 1 Weigh In's

Options
Good morning fitness warriors. This is the week 1 Weigh In thread. I will post a different discussion board for week 1 chats, encouragement, and support. It will also have the weekly exercise and exercise challenge for this week. Remember if you complete these you earn extra points.

This thread is to post your starting weight and any measurements you might take as well. I am going to measure neck, waist, stomach, chest, thighs, biceps, calves. This is not mandatory. Just another way to see your progress. We will refer back to this thread once we post our week 2 weights next Sunday to reference pounds lost and goals attained.

Please, by 9:00 pm tonight, post your starting weight and 1 goal for the week. Focus on this goal and your "why" and lets start this competition off right. Good luck to everyone. I'm rooting for us all.

    Goal: present mindfulness with food choices. Too often on autopilot and not enough being present.

    Starting weight 166.2 (some of that is water, I really figure I'm about 164 - I had a tough trail run yesterday)

    Goal: My goal this week -- 2 miles a day or more, try to get in step goals, have mostly liquid meals during the day and most of that dairy see if that helps health symptoms.

    disclaimer -- I'll have wacky goals every week, I know, I know -- my friends are all Vegan and when they find out I have dairy in my life they freak the f**k out on me. But I don't digest amino acids from meat or vegetable sources and I just get weaker and weaker until I can't get out of bed and it totally sucks. So one time a Vegan was yelling at me, "Milk is just pre-digested liquid meat!!!" Oh....yeah....it is isn't it? Heck yeah, I'm going right now to buy a gallon of the grass fed organic happy cows on the package stuff. And uh' it worked, my GI stopped bleeding anyway and I wasn't tired all day feeling like I was in day 2 of the flu. They got me to stop eating dairy again and go back to all veggies and I got sick again, so screw it, I'm going to give dairy and liquids a go, it's the only time I feel kinda good, it probably won't work anyway.

    Sorry guys I'm still at work. Thought I would be done early today. Might not be able to weight in until after 9. Just didn't want anyone to think I had forgot or was not trying. I'll post tonight.

    Starting weight 207.6

    Weekly goals - weigh in at 206.6 before Friday.

    I forgot to weigh in yesterday. I was having a weird weekend. Anywho, I do weigh in almost every day and yesterday I was at 207.6. I don't like adding my weight all the time to MFP because of how much it'll fluctuate in just a few days time. I was previously 207 even. So if I put in 207.6 and then tomorrow weigh-in at 207, MFP says "Yay, you lost 0.6 lbs!" No I didn't. I went back to where I was before.

    My goal for this week is due to a weight loss fitness challenge I'm in that is over on the 6th. I had 2 1/2 months to lose 6% of my starting weight. I'm down to the wire.

    Well I aint going to beat it. Coming in at a stunningly mediocre 294.9 Up 0.1lbs. Wooo!! (I don't even)
    Exercise daily: Yes
    15 miles for the week? Good question. I might have to throw to the video ref on this one. I only covered 13.2miles while specifically doing my daily cardio. But more than 30miles in total movement for the week. Not sure which counts.

    Go team. :smiley:
