Losing 20 in your 20's! (CLOSED)

YAY!! Welcome to our family tree, plantgrrl!!

Challenge for the week - Something cute...
Go for a walk/jog/run around your neighborhood or wherever you want... But NOT at the gym & take a picture of something beautiful. some kind of flower, bush, tree, birds, kids playing, what have you... Post it here, or somewhere..

Maybe we can gain inspiration from this.. To enjoy the simple things in life.

Really love this challenge! Will definitely do this! I actually prefer running outside rather than gym anyway and Autumn is my favourite time of year, so good excuse to enjoy it! x

Finally checked the forum! Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! I'm gonna try hard here. I'm on team Green Grapes. Go Grapes! I've been having a bad week, head cold and prepping for week long trip to Paris, France in 10 days, so probably up on Thursday. I won't be able to log a weight on 10/13, but I'm gonna walk like a champ in Paris and eat well but not 'til I explode and see how it goes. Then, when I get back it'll be hard core through January (when I turn 30).

Thanks for having me! I'm gonna work hard to make the team proud.

Welcome! Lots of luck with this challenge, hope you feel better soon as well!

Ross, would it be okay if plantgrrl is away for 10/13 to log her weight the same as her previous week weight so we can still get results done?

WEIGH IN TOMORROW............. MAKING SURE I DRINK A GALLON OF WATER TODAY

Good morning, all! I don't know where this week has gone. I swear it was Friday just yesterday.

This week is a no change for me. After the past two weeks only being half pound losses this is not very good, BUT it was my birthday weekend so it's better than a gain. Now uni has started back up, it's time to get back on track properly.

So yesterday I bought a new exercise bra, two pairs of jeans in my actual size (which means I can finally chuck those ugly, bigger sized ones I'd been wearing) and a pair of jeans one size down as some motivation (which is my goal size). I also bought my first pair of running shoes. I've never owned any before so I'm super excited about this. And on top of all of this, my boyfriend wants to 'bulk up' so we are going to join a gym together when he gets paid (1-2weeks time). I can feel the motivation flooding back now, so I am aiming for a proper loss next week.

I hope everyone is feeling motivated too, and good luck with your weigh ins today!

Wish I could lose more than these tiny amounts each week!!! Grrr! Well that's 1/4 of a lb down this week lol wish it was more. But for those who measure in stones and lbs (or if you're UK) then you'll understand that it's actually a great week, as that 1/4 of a lb put me UNDER 12 stone, which is great

Oh, I am on holiday next week but I get back on Thursday (in evening UK time) so will update then or Friday morning, just an early warning! But I am still here and keen

Well, I lost a pound, but I'll be honest and admit it's the same one I found last week. :ohwell:

I know why I haven't lost: I'm not eating enough, not drinking enough water, not getting enough sleep, and not excerising. I've had NO motivation. :grumble: I just want to be under 200! :sad: Quick, someone send me your motivation, stat!!

lost .8 of a lb............. I was really hoping id be down from 131 to the 129's since I peeked at the scale tuesday and was at 129.7....... but I have faith that next week I will be....... so determined right now!!!!!!!!! Nmanda- i go up and down all week, you can do this i ahve faith in you!

LOSS OR GAIN WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER!!!!!!

Well I stayed the same. Can't blame the scale, I blame my bum foot and lake of motivation :explode: I've also been more concerned on my fiance's weight lose journey that I haven't really been taking care of myself. However he is down 8 lbs so I'll give myself a small pat on the back can anybody suggest some exercises I can do that don't involve standing or walking? Congrats to lose who lost and to those who gained or stayed the same, there's always next week! Go Peaches!!!!
