Hello Everyone,

Today was ok.....Bought a new pedometer, brand name GOWalking by sportline. Worn it tonight at kickboxing. I also did 10 minutes on the arc trainer burning 100 calories plus 30 minutes of strength training. The Pedometer read that I only burned off calories the whole entire time at gym. This doesn't seem right to me. :indifferent: I am puzzled into what amount of calories I should record in my exercise tab. I found a website at you enter you weight , the number of minutes that you did at a certain type exercise, and it tells you how many calories you could of burned...and that website tells me that I should of burned off at least 700 calories just for the kickboxing alone.

Not sure on what I should enter...:grumble: Any suggestions????

Well, I've done great with the water! That's really easy to do at my work because I'm at a desk all day and I just put it right there next to my phone - if I talk on the phone, I take a drink! The eating - not so much - although did very well until late afternoon and then dinner - MENTAL!! Did run 3 miles yesterday morning and walk 3 miles last night but had too many carbs and puffed up like a blowfish! Was really tired and sluggish this morning too - I know I shouldn't eat that!! So I have a meeting tonight but plan to run 5 miles afterward and am definitely going to watch what I eat today - I want a GREAT weigh-in tomorrow!! Good luck to everyone and have a great "last chance workout!!" hehe I the Biggest Loser!

so i just woke up and am super excited. i weighed in at 128.8 , so down 3.2 pounds. i think my 1000 calories burned at the gym yesterday might of helped a little.lol

I am glad someone had positive results this week. I am totally bummed to have only lost 0.5 pounds. Now I'm going to whine: I worked out 6 of 7 days, and have looser clothes, so I thought the weigh in today would be fabulous. I am quite disappointed. I think you really do have to work extremely hard for every pound lost. I do hope next week is better.

To the good side, drinking 2L of water everyday is getting much easier, and the classes at the gym are fun.

Good luck everyone, hopefully you'll have better results than me!

My sister came to visit on Saturday and while I went to the gym that morning, I knew ther stay would be hard. I tried to go to the gym Sunday but that didn't happen. Nor did I stick to my diet on Sunday either. Totally blew it in the worst kind of way. Teacher work day on Monday and Joseph and I went to the gym to do some strength training and that felt good. Still didn't stick to the deit very well. It was his brother's bday and I caved on cake and ice cream. Tuesday I planned on going to the gym in the morning but I so desired sleep more and caved to that as well. Then I went to the beach and got massively sunburned and now it hurts to move. Yesterday (Wednesday) I stuck to my diet but did no exercise because it hurts too bad to move. Today I weighed in and I gain a pound. :sad: Much sadness. I knew it would happen and I am very thankful that it was only one pound. Time to get back on track. I don't know if I will be able to make it to the gym today seeing as it I still hurt but maybe I will go for a walk. I know I need to...it's just getting the motivation to do so. Especially when I am smack in the middle of Breaking Dawn!!! I just want to spend the day reading! Anyway, by this weekend I will be good to go back to the gym and hopefully I will see more results next week! Great job to all of you who showed progress this week!!
