    SW: 132
    CW: 132

    I didn't accomplish my goal of working out on Sunday, but I did watch what I ate pretty well...and most importantly I made my goal of returning to my starting weight after last weekend's insane eating.

    Goals for this week:

    1) Finally get my measurements recorded here. :)
    2) Work out every day until I leave for a long weekend trip on Thursday.
    3) Mange eating while traveling as best I can.
    4) Don't gain any weight over my long weekend trip.

    Last Halloween the local bar had a dress-up contest. I went and bought a couple of costumes on clearance for this years bash. Just out of curiosity, I tried one of them on to make sure they were gonna fit and get an idea of how much I was gonna have to step up the game...it was actually a little too BIG! It totally made my day!

    Another thing that made my day...I was going thru my drawer looking for a pair of jeans to wear this morning and they were all too big! It totally makes all of this hard work worth it!

    Sigh...I went down quite a bit mid-week, but I'm back up again. I can only attribute it to heavy working out yesterday and water retention due to the end of TOM and my work out (very sore today). So here's hoping for next week...

    8/15 - 194
    8/22 - 194

    I just wanted to say, I think everyone is doing a great job! There are some pretty nice losses being posted! and don't beat yourself up if you didn't reach your goals because today is a new week. You can do this!

    Starting weight: 164
    Todays weigh in: 162.6

    My goals this week are getting in lots of cardio. I plan to take spin classes on M,T & W. On Tues I also will take a weight training class. Thursday I will either do the elliptical or ride my bike outside, depending on the weather. Friday will be my day off.
    I will also stay very close to my calorie goals. I am planning my meals for the rest of the week right now!

    I overate this weekend, so my loss probably would have been better, but I am still reporting a 0.9 pound loss. I weighed in at 275.6. I did exercise over the weekend, but I ate out several times and overdid it!

    thamre it is amazing how just trying on something especially jeans and seeing that they are big can make you walk a little taller & prouder!!!

    Hey Girls
    Sorry I know weigh in is Monday but I have been stressed out with finalas at school. I’m very disappointed in myself because last night I was rushing to hand something by deadline and I was super stressed out. To my me feel better my bf made and ice cream sunday, we have nutella, I ate at least 2 Tbsp’s of peanut butter. I actually stayed under my calories (surprised) but still it was 12 at night. I should have had more self control.

    Otherwise, I did weigh and measure myself.

    I reached my goal! I weighed in 151.2!

    Also I did workout 3 times a week! So yay!! LAst two days of classes but I will fight this urge to binge eat.

    Goals this week.

    Workout 30mins every day.
    200 crunches, 20 push ups
    Lose 2 pounds.

    Sorry ladies.. I did weigh myself yesterday but it was later on in the evening so I didnt get a chance to come on and post it. The scale showed no difference... could of been due to the fact that I weighed so late or just that Ive been gaining muscle... I know for sure Im losing inches so I guess something is better than nothing.

    SW: 165
    8/22: 165

    congrats 2 all those who reached their goal for the week.. keep up the good work ladies!!!

    I was feeling good last night...walked 6 miles!

    I want to run so bad...it is just that every time I do I have to pee. I go to the bathroom right before I leave but as soon as a start I get the urge. I have no control...it really sucks.
