AWESOME POSSUMS......10 Wks and 20lbs (CLOSED GROUP)

Uh Oh...

Worst than I thought...I gained...4 pounds this week.

This is making no sense....I have lowered my calories, worked out and drank lots of water...

Could a week-end be that bad?!

Anyway...The scaled started plateauing in June and then I became discourage which acted up my compulsive-emotional eating (viscious cycle of weighing and binging) and I just feel out of whack!!

My goals this week:

1) Drink 8 glasses of water per day
2) Respect my calorie limit
3) Log in my food
4) step off the elliptical and go to Bikram Yoga 3 times.

Have a good week everyone!

Hi all,
I'm very impressed with you sticking with the challenges, well done.
I've not been well, therefore only did cycling one day last week and otherwise nothing serious and my logging was bad too. on the upside, well sort of, was my weigh in this morning, but i know it's down to me eating very little or not keeping it down... which was not the plan.
but, feeling much better and looking forward to challenges this week. my personal ones:

a) one work out a day, cycling or one of jillians dvds or power walking. starting with cycling now!
b) logging my food properly(and staying within my calorie goals
c) not getting upset by having a fun Fri OR Sat and going over a little, it's not going to ruin my loss!

Water is not an issue for me as i drink 1.5-2 liters a day anyway but not logging it.

Have a good week everyone

Oh, and for the record, my weight today: 134.5lbs

My Monday morning weigh in registered 165 lbs. I was so hoping for 164 but it seems food is too available for me over the weekend. Good luck to all of you & we will try harder next time

Well as of this morning myweight is still the same..No change! I didn't do well with my eating over the weekend but I did manage to complete all of the challenges....

Today was a great day for food...

Monitored my hunger level and planned my day to avoid making bad decisions...

It was difficult for me not to work out (huh?!) but I need to concentrate on my food right now as i have been consistent with working out and have only managed to lose 7 pounds since June (plateau from hell anyone?)

Wishing everyone a great night!

here is a little quote that i look to when i feel down. Hopefully it will help you all as we continue this journey to a healthier us.

"You have failed only when you quit trying. Until then, you're still in the act of progression, so never quit trying and you'll never be a failure." -Tommy Kelley

Sorry I didn't check in yesterday, I was in Disney! Talk about diet sabotage! I tried to sticknto salads for lunch and chicken for dinner. I maintained my weight, thanks to lots of walking and a 13 mile run! Still at 165, hopefully back on track today and losing 2 lbs this week!
