    Hey Kistinbee! That's great that you are getting back to your routine - that was my main focus this last week as well. We'll see tomorrow whether I got any payoff on the scale, but I am feeling pretty good - I worked out 6 days last week (varying in time from 20 minutes to 1hour and 20 minutes) so I am happy with myself. I cheated a little bit, food-wise, over the weekend, but it was with reasonably healthy stuff - just didn't watch the portions as well as I probably should have.

    I'll check in tomorrow with my stats. Good luck this week! :flowerforyou:

    I have not posted the last few weigh in's because I fell off the wagon a little bit and I am now ready to jump back on.

    Starting weight- 176
    Last week- 166.7
    Today- 165

    Good luck everyone. And Kistinbee hang in there, I got back up to 169 when I fell off the wagon and we just have to get motivated again. I hope to be at 159 soon. I really want to be in the 150's again. Heidi:flowerforyou:

    This is a quote from 'Rocky Balboa' that I hope will make getting back to your normal routine a bit easier, kistinbee... :flowerforyou:
    " It ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth."

    Awesome job on all your workouts cp005e! Wish I could get motivated enough to get back to 5-6 days a week. I only did 3 days last week, I still had a loss but not as great as I have been doing. Strange thing is I haven't been losing any inches. I am back into a size 10 but when I measure myself the numbers haven't changed for over a month now. Does anyone know why that could be?

    Well here are my stats...

    Start of JGC: 182 lbs
    Last week: 162 lbs
    Today: 160.8 lbs

    Total loss for week: 1.2 lbs
    Total loss for JGC: 21.2 lbs
    Total loss for MFP: 29.2 lbs (UGH... I just can't seem to hit that 30 lb mark! :mad: )

    Here is one more quote for the week...

    "Patience and perseverance have a magical affect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish." ~John Quincy Adams

    Have an awesome week everyone and good luck! :bigsmile:

    My BF came home from his trip early so my results are less than stellar... I enjoy his overwhelming support, but I tend to do better on my own. I think I have just hit the point where I am tired of constantly logging calories and making myself exercise (although I did go on the first bike ride of the season Sat). I think it is time for a break. What Phase did Banks say that was?? This is my retaining water week plus a nice dinner on Friday for our anniversary, and I am going to Vegas next weekend. So I am choosing not to weigh in for 2-3 weeks. But I will still post about how I think I am doing. Congrats on everyone's continued motivation, or at least picking up again after a break. :drinker:

    Start MFP - 182.5
    Last week - 150
    This week - 149.8
    Goal - 138

    Well... I'm gonna chalk this up to... uh... retaining water in my muscles from all that exercise? :laugh:

    Start of challenge (2/12 for me): 194.8
    Last weigh-in (4/15): 181.8
    Current weight: 182.0
    July Goal: 155

    Pounds lost this week: -0.2 :grumble:

    I am disappointed, but I know I am doing pretty well overall. Let's all have a great week! :glasses:
