Looking Good For Christmas - Week 3

Hello everyone!
Another great weigh in day LOL :laugh: I am very happy I actually lost 1.5lbs this week after my awful week last week. Thank you to so many who supported me through the hard times, it really meant a lot. And I took advice from you! Instead of eating while grieving, I ended up walking and running. Well, mostly running - and I have found I am getting much better at it!
So, again, thank you to you all for your support last week! I greatly appreciated it and you really kept me on track! This is such a GREAT group!

I'll be completely honest, this weight loss is not down to healthy living, it is sadly down to too much stress at work so I'm running round lots and eating less, but at least it's a positive to all the grey hairs and wrinkles I'm no doubt developing!0 -

I actually weigh in on Saturdays. It is much easier for me. I am not sure how it will turn out, I have been pretty bad this week.0 -
Congrats to everyone who has lost and to everyone else who is still coming back and making it work for you no matter what. Keep up the great work.:bigsmile:0

Hi everyone, I thought I was going to have very good results to report this week, however, not so much. I started running last week by doing something similar to the Couch 2 5k program. I've been eating a lot better and watching my portions. When I stepped on the scales this morning I was stunned. I am not sure what I am doing wrong, but hope that the extra weight gain is something like water weight that can be lost quickly. I feel proud of myself for taking control, but am having a hard time getting motivated after this.:ohwell:

Have you been drinking enough water? When you exercise you need even more water than you think. Don't be discouraged your body is fighting the changes--keep doing what you are doing and drink enough water and I bet you will be stunned by the scale next week. :flowerforyou:0 -

My goal is to lose 30 lbs. by Christmas to bring me down to 159 lbs. Yay ... good luck all!!
Looks like I've lost 1.5 lbs since last week ... I'll take it again0 -

Week 1 July 22 - 140 (-2.4)

I have a suggestion if that is okay... Is it alright if we just post our chart up to the current week so that there is less to scroll through when reading posts? Or maybe the first post has the complete list of dates but the rest have just up to the current date? I am doing it for myself but didn't know if anyone else might be interested to cut down on the number of pages to go through and less scrolling.
Thanks,
Tammy0 -

Happy belated birthday to you. Now get back in the game.0 -
I lost 2 pounds! I am super excited about this because it is my TOM and I still managed to lose. I did not go over my calories any time during the past week, but I also did not exercise at all! I need to do better with the working out this coming week. Great job on everybody's progress. I posted this yesterday on the old thread before I realized today that there was a new one.

So I got my results back from the doctor on my blood work...not very good news. My cholesterol has come down but is still high and my triglycerides are way up. So I am starting fresh today...which I haven't been able to do the entire week. So wish me luck! I had a yogurt with granola, a bowl of grapes and a cup of tea for breakfast.
I wish you all a healthy day!0 -
Hey Y'all! I just had my monthly weigh/measure done at Curves and It had been a good month! 3.5 pounds, 3.5 inches and (drumroll) I've lost 4% body fat! WOOT!:drinker: Only 5 more BMI points to go (+/- 30 pounds :grumble: ) to be "healthy".
I've been thinking about that 4% a bit. If my whole entire body was 100% fat, would 4% be, like , chopping off a foot? a hand? I'm trying to get an idea in my head of how big the lump-o-chunkines would be...
Hope everyone has a super weekend filled with good choices, exercise, and lots of water! Later!0 -

Just think when you lose weight, those problems will slowly go away. You are doing a great job, you will get there before you know it. :bigsmile:0 -
I think that I am going to wait one more week before I weigh. I have had a hard week, with my fiance' out of town. I will weigh next Saturday morning, which will be Aug 8th. That will make it 4 weeks since I have weighed last.
Everyone is doing an awesome job, keep up the great work. Have a fantastic weekend. :bigsmile:0 -
anthrochix: 4% is a lot to lose. That is GREAT! Keep it up. I think healthy depends on your sex. I've been trying for so long and have not been able to get rid of the body fat. So I'm doubling my exercise and weight training efforts. I think essential means that you need that much fat for your organs and systems to run properly. I'm on the other end of acceptable, but would like to move towards fitness. However, at this point I'd be happy to lose even 1% of bod yfat.
Classification Women (% fat)
Essential Fat 10-12%
Athletes 14-20%
Fitness 21-24%
Acceptable 25-31%
Obese 32% plus
Men (% fat)
Essential Fat 2-4%
Athletes 6-13%
Fitness 14-17%
Acceptable 18-25%
Obese 25% plus

BMR is the number of calories you would burn if you were to do nothing all day long but set and breathe. To lose weight you have to eat at a deficit and that's where the 1200 calories a day comes in. Hope that helps.0
