I had to change my start weight since I got a new scale last weekend and go figure my weight went up!...argh! Oh wells, at least this one is new, so I have a new starting point!.. Have a great weekend everyone!0 -
@ beethedreamer - We all have bad days, but just track it and move on...Tomorrow is a new day and will be a fresh start!...
You can do it! :flowerforyou: 0 -
Forgive, Forget and MOVE FORWARD..... its more about fitness and a toned body...ofcourse numbers dropping on the scales are really a treat to the eyes..... 0
-
Yes! Don't feel bad, everybody has a bad day. The important thing is to move forward and be wiser in the future.
Today i got my mom some BK for lunch and cheated too... almost 1,000 cal! what the hell??? Anyway I had a great lowcal breakfast and will have a very big bowl of green salad with just lime juice and chili powder. I will still be almost 400cal over my daily goal but I was thinking on having a cheating day per week so.... looks like this week's cheat day will be friday :P
And I'm very happy to report that by the end of the meal I felt a big disgusted (I hadn't had a greasy meal in weeks). So, looking at the bright side this could mean I won't be eating from BK anytime soon ha!
Let's keep positive people! This are the days when we can fail to learn how to get up again, the big test is coming soon (holiday gatherings) and we better be ready for war!!! :P0 -
I just wanted to let y'all know that I won't be weighing in tomorrow. I dropped my scale this morning and apparently that made it stop working, oops :P But I weighed in at 178.4 yesterday morning, so it was probably going to be a maintenance week anyways. I will be getting a new scale this week, so I will be able to post an updated weight next Monday Good luck to you all tomorrow! 0

I know I am late to the party, but could I possibly join this challenge? I am new to MFP and am looking for a group that is friendly and actually "open" as opposed to closed. Please let me know and if the answer is yes, what I need to do.
Thanks,
Jamie0 -
I would love to join! A bit about myself first: I'm 22 years old, have been wanting to get rid of my "extra baggage" for awhile, but am finally (After gaining weight over the summer) taking this seriously. This will be my first "challenge"-- I had been planning to go to Hawaii for Christmas, and that was part of my motivation to keep losing weight, but I just got my work schedule and can't take the time off
BUT I'm not giving up! My ultimate goal is to be 120, but my New Years goal is 130.

welcome! That's unfortunate that you won't be able to go on your vacation, but you'll be getting fit and healthy for life. So when the opportunity for a nice vacation happens again, you'll already look fantastic 0 -

Oh No Brittany.... funny how dropping a scale will make it stop working...lol I am hopeful about my weigh in tomorrow but it's always slow moving for me and this last 15 lbs!0 -
So I'd been battling a cold all last week and felt like all was going to heck in the handbasket, but I lost some weight and feel better now. The cold is almost gone and my blood sugar is back in check! Yay! :bigsmile:

It's all about staying on track over the weekend for me and I did it! I have also cut out all of the processed foods I was eating and that has cut down on my cravings. Lost 4.8 lbs!

im in starting weight 334 and my goal weight is 300 by the end of the year0

The last few tables seem to have lost last week's progress, but I am fairly sure we all know exactly what we weigh now so will continue with it and update anyway! It just means I get to re-enter last weeks as well which reminds me I've lost 5lbs in two weeks!
Am enjoying the progress/status updates and motivation from everyone on the challenge that has added me as a friend - please feel free to if you haven't already and I've missed you - the list has grown fast! Keep at it everyone!

Only 7 more to go until under 200! Congrats on the good work everyone!0 -
Am interested to know what incentives you give yourselves to keep going?
As my long term goal is to lose 70lbs I decided I need to save to be able to replace my wardrobe, so I'm using a savings incentive per one pound lost. I have found it surprisingly easy as I'm not wasting money on fast food crap and snacks anymore (if the Starbucks UK stock price is suffering I think I can take some responsibility for that!). A friend of mine has treated herself to things like spa days when she lost 10% of starting weight etc - what do you all do?0 -

I just re-read the first part of this. So we were supposed to put our end of the year goal weight?! :huh: Oops! I put my long term goal weight! :blushing: Silly me! I'll update mine next week (too tired from work).0

I've never done the whole reward thing, mostly because I didn't think it was necessary. But I actually figured out a goal for myself for this challenge If I reach 165 by the end of the year, I am rewarding myself with a pair of Toms shoes. It's not super extravagant or anything, but it's something I've wanted, but didn't want to buy just because. Incentives are good motivators

P.S. Everyone is doing really well, the loses are great this week!0

I am in as well. Weight was 256.5 Goal by New Years is 240.0

So, here's where I'm at guys: Yesterday, my friend was slamming my door shut, not knowing I was right behind the door (Inside the room) and totally K-O'd my nose. I have never been physically hurt before, especially in the face, so naturally, today I stayed in bed and was in pain (Missed my yoga class). :S My mom, for breakfast, got me a Costco Chocolate muffin (HELLO 690 calories) and my dad brought me pizza for dinner. (It's technically my favorite food)- I barely made it inside of my allotted calories for the day (With only 23 calories left over) ugh. In 20 days, this is the first time I have "slipped"- and It was just such a dumb, random thing to happen, but it happened.
I'm kinda worried for tomorrow, my body is still feels achy, and I don't feel like doing anything :S
Agh, motivation, anyone? Maybe I should watch the biggest loser, even with their bad knees or whatever, THEY exercise right? ...ugh...0 -
My first day on the weight loss program is tomorrow ,10/19/11, and I weighed in today at 10/18/11 at 236.4 pounds. My goal is to weigh 212 pounds by the end of the year. If I lose 2 pounds per week I should be able to get to 212 pounds in 12 weeks. I am having the hardest time sticking to a weight loss program and my weight just keeps moving up and it scares me.0
