Hello my lovelies! How is your week going?
Been a busy week at work for me but have still managed to sneak in pre-work and lunch workout sessions. I'm really loving the circuit classes at my gym, it feels nice to work everything rather than just doing pure cardio. I don't know what my body is going through though, the numbers on the scale are incredibly volatile yet I had to send my measurements to my PT and realised I've lost loads of inches!
It's a bank holiday weekend here in the UK and I just booked a last minute flight home to see my parents in France. Really looking forward to it!
Hope you all have a super great weekend!

My week has been okay. I didnt stick to my diet vary well. :-( But it has been one of those weeks. Uhg. But we all have them. I did have an NSV this morning! I am almost able to button up one of my old shirts :-D yeah.
Joni congrats on the weight loss and have lots of fun in France !0 -
Happy Friday everyone. I hope you all have something amazing planned for the weekend. My son plays football for his high school and our first game is tonight. Those snack bars just kill me...but I pledge to be strong... at least strong enough not to go over on calories.
So my weight has been STALLED for a while. I have played with the same two pounds for about a month or so. This week I've eaten my exercise calories back (for the most part) and my scale is moving again. Woo hoo! It's about time!
Have a great weekend!!0 -
Had a wonderful weekend this weekend, finished my 3rd 5K this morning in record time in the heat which I am not used to as I have been running in the morning before work.
Weighed in this morning at 167.8 - a loss of 0.4lbs.
Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend

I just had the most fun-filled weekend, spending time with old friends and celebrating the 2nd birthday of the little boy who owns half of my heart (no he's not mine, but his baby brother owns the other half ). I definitely overdid it a bit this weekend, but I guess I'm trying to rationalize it in my head as a break from the monotony and stress of work, even though I think I might hate myself tomorrow when I weigh-in. I was definitely encouraged on Friday, when I had dinner with one of my aunties and she looked at me and went, "Did you lose weight? Your face seems narrower..." so yay NSV! Haha, hope you are all doing well and those on the East Coast are staying safe and dry!0

161.2....REALLY?!?!? I am so ticked. I know I took the weekend off from working out but really? I can't seem to loose any weight no matter what I do. Its getting discouraging. Hope everyone else is doing well and loosing!!!0

I weighted in at 229.8 this morning0
-
Congrats on your losses girls! I was running late this morning, so I will weigh in tomorrow...and hopefully I will remember to *crosses fingers*0
-
If I might postpone my weigh-in until tomorrow morning...I rushed out the house without weighing in (oops) I had so much going on this morning with the kids...ugh. Hope that is okay. Congrats to all who weighed in and lost as well as NSVs.0
-
What gives?!?!?!? stayed the same AGAIN!! - 173.7!0
-
Hi All! Ran late this morning as well and will post tomorrow's weigh-in. Weekends are hard to stick to diet plans... I did work out though, so we shall see! Planning two workouts today and lots of water then crossing my fingers for a loss!0
-
So I had a fun weekend and I ate pretty much anything that wasn't moving. Back on track this morning!
My weigh in this morning was 179.4.
Have a great week everyone!0 -
1 lb down this week...
152 today 0 -
Im still the same. this sunday Im going to get/barrow a tv so that I can weigh my self with the wii!!! I dont like the scale Ive been using vary mush because it not that accurate. Im going to do my best for the rest of the week. Today I went over on my calories :-( and I dont want to workout(p90x) but Im going to any way. This is week 5!! I all ready went for a walk and jog/walk on my treadmill. 2 miles at 15min each mile. Bad bad bad. Guess I just wasnt feeling it today.
*Mandi great job on the 1lb loss!! How are you doing in florida ? Did the hurricane affect you?
*Rebeccasluckydu glad you had a great weekend :-)
*Erica ,alibreasy and crikee15 best wishes for weigh in
*MamaDee check your measurments
*Kendra That is so cool!!! your doing awesome!0 -
Hey girls!
I cannot believe how volatile the number on the scale has been in the past few weeks. Back up to 170.6 today :noway: HOWEVER! Body fat % is down another percent, muscle % is up, AND my mum told me she could see I was getting smaller. My mum is always so tough on me and getting a compliment from her is a mahoussive NSV.
I had a great weekend at home! So nice to spend some more time with my family. Had some great food, went sailing for a day, walks on the beach and even went for a nice long run along the beach, very enjoyable.
Congrats on all your weigh-ins, it sounds like you've been doing fab!
:flowerforyou: Kendra, great job on another 5K! Running in the heat does take some getting used to, try switching up your training times e.g. run in the afternoon on weekends to prepare for it!
:flowerforyou: Alyshe, you've been working hard, I'm sure it will pay off!
:flowerforyou: MamaDee, I know how frustrating it is when the number on the scale doesn't follow. Alyshe is right - check your measurements, you may be in for a great surprise!
:flowerforyou: Kim, congrats on the NSV!
:flowerforyou: Jamie, hang in there! I'm in the same boat. We can do this!
:flowerforyou: Mandie is doing it again, great work girl. Hope Irene stayed far away from you!
And best of luck for the girlies weighing in today, chart will go up tomorrow!0 -
Hi Joni!!!
I was suppose to weigh in yesterday, but I had forgoten my pass for the gym at my work where I weight in all the time, so I went this morning and I'm at 263 lbs today, so 1 lb lost. Surprising for being on vacation all week!
I had a very wet and cold week at camp last week. Lots of Thunderstorms Sunday the 21st (5 back to back), rain on Monady and a massive (very scary) thunderstorm on Wednesday night...not the best vacation of the year. I'll have to remember next summer not to take vacation at the end of August.
Anyway, I'm back at work, back on good food and back to the gym!0 -
Ok...so I made a goal for Monday....159.8. I am so sick of being in the 160s and working so hard just to not loose anything....what the heck?! So I planned out my workouts today between my school and work schedule and REALLY hope I can stick to it. I have class this morning but after I get done and home for lunch, I am going to head to the gym for some cardio and then home for the 30 Day Shred. Staying on track eating wise too. I've gotta get that scale to move! ugh!0
-
Thanks girls! Irene stayed away from us. All we got was a day of rain and a bit of wind; it pretty much flew on past Florida as it rushed up to the Carolinas.
I hope that I can stay on track this week as it is my awesome week off again!!! (I work 3 weeks straight 24-7 and then have 1 full week off) I struggle with eating while we're on respite because it's so much more fun to watch movies and go to the beach with a bunch of goodies :blushing: I am going to make sure that we go for lots of walks and swim to make up for the treats that I do have so that hopefully when I get back next monday the scale will have stayed in relatively the same spot. I realized that I lost 5 lbs in 3 weeks and that was probably mostly due to stress because I was so overwhelmed and either didn't have time to eat or didn't feel like eating. I need to remember to EAT during my time at work and NOT EAT so much when i'm on break...haha one of these days i'll get it right. Keep up the great work everyone!0 -
Jamie I will make it my personal goal to cheer you on every day so that you go and nail the 150's!Ok...so I made a goal for Monday....159.8.

Hey Ladies! Congrats on your losses and your NSV Joni! I weighed in this morning at 186.8, which is .4 higher than last week, but i lost traded fat for muscle tone in my calves (I didn't know I had any fat left there, but now my muscles are sticking out, haha). My original goal for Labor Day was 180, but I think I'm going to adjust it to 185. I have to figure out why I'm not losing more, even though I eat relatively healthy. Debating if I need to up my number of workouts this week, but I dislike the idea of not having a recovery between each workout, let me know what you guys think. Oh, and thanks for all of the comments on my status, I feel really encouraged knowing you guys are here with me =D Have an awesome day girls!0

Okay everyone, I weighed in this morning sorry for the late delay. Its 9:43am (pacific time) where I am. I had a bunch of running around to do this morning for kids and work. Here are my results
Last week: 216
This week: 214 :-)
I lost 2 pounds! Yeeeeaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Getting closer to wonderland!
Hope everyone else is doing great...let's kick next weeks butt. Even though I think TOM will be here for me. I think with lots of water an continued exercise and less sodium I can keep up ;-)
Blessings to you all,
Alicia (Alibreasy)0 -
When I add more exercise to my weekly regime, it is always a win-win on the scale the following week...Like this past week.Saturday, I did Zumba that morning and then cleaned my house, then Sunday morning I got up and walked with a friend of mine a hill that goes straight up almost 2 miles, then Monday night I did Zumba (and the teacher is this 21 year bundle of energy, woot-woot). Not to mention other workouts during the week. The prior week I didnt lose anything and I only worked out two days...so now I know I gotta keep that cardio, circuit training up :-) Try it and see how it goes.0
-
Lots of green this week, well done girls! Next week I'll be up there with you!0 -
Everyone is doing so well - keep up the great work everyone!!!0
-
Well it is OFFICIAL, I have finally completed C25K. Had to deal with some rain, gumbo, Paden misbehaving - considered going home and going back to bed but wouldn't let myself and finished instead. It feels so good to have finished something especially running, something that I never thought I would ever complete. It is a good day for me today, even though my running conditions weren't the best.
Hope everyone has a wonderful day!!!0 -
Congratulations Kendra!! Are there any plans to run in a 5K race in the near future?0
-
And way to push through everything going against you!0
-
I saw a really nice number on the scale this morning, please please please stay with me until Monday!
Any nice plans for the weekend ladies? I'm at home this weekend and I'm going to take advantage of that to go through my closet and throw out my fat clothes. I won't need them anymore because I won't ever allow myself to go back there. And I need to find some space for my new skinny clothes 0 -
Good Morning Ladies and TGIF - YEAH FOR 3 DAYS OFF!!!
crikee15 - Thanx!! I have actually already completed 3 5K's this year, one in June, July and one just this past Sunday and I have already signed up for a 5K in every month left this year and one in Jan next year. Now that I am kinda a runner I want to do a 5K every month of the year that is my goal anyways and I really look forward to those races. When I first started the program I hated it, I hated running, I hated going out and doing it - my opinion of it has changed and now I enjoy going out for a run and I am very glad that I pushed myself to do the program and finish it even though it took me a bit longer than it should have. I would recommend the program to anyone who was interested in adding running into their exercise program.
Joni - cleaning out your closest sounds like so much fun, I have been purposefully doing that everytime a piece of clothing has gotten to big it was put in the goodwill pile and then left the house so I didn't have something to fall back on. It is such a nice feeling getting rid of things out of your closet. Enjoy and have fun with it!!! Do you get a long weekend as well?
My weekend is going to consist of as little as possible. Tomorrow I am going to do some shopping for an elliptical, hair appt and little else, Sunday will be some truck cleaning and nothing much else and Monday I am hoping to just veg that day. Oh and of course there will be exercise every day :happy:
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend :flowerforyou:0
