    dartboarddiva - Thanks! :happy:

    Kristen - congrats on being so close to 200! I can't wait to be there myself.

    I'm doing okay this week - I don't think I'm going to do the 4 workouts of an hour each this week - due to my school schedule it's just too stressful to try to work that in. I'm focusing on maintaining my good eating and will probably work out 4 or 5 times for 30 to 45 min each. I worked out last night with the Biggest Loser Bootcamp workout at home. I'll be doing Yoga tonight after my dinner settles. I should be able to make it to the gym tomorrow and Friday.

    I never really "reported in" this week - I am down to 211.5, which is a 15.5 pound loss in 4 weeks. I'm so excited!! It's nice to see results - based on my exercise/eating I should've only lost a little over 2 pounds a week, but I must be burning more calories than MFP estimates (or the gym machine estimates are too low).

    Hope everyone is having a great week. :smile:

    Shelli --
    I don't think my toe is actually broken. I've broken a toe before and all the doctor did was tape it to the toe next to it. It's very colorful, but the swelling has gone down and I can put weight on it. Thanks for the good wishes.:happy:

    got back from Japan last night.
    after 2 and a half weeks of not thinking about exercising or eating healthily, I was a bit worried that I might have gained some weight/inches.
    BUT...
    well, I didn't lose any weight, I am the same, 150lbs holding steady.
    I lost a bit from my stomach and waist and thighs, not much, maybe only an inch total, but it's progress!

    I guess it helps that in Japan, portion sizes aren't as mammoth as in the US, and I spent 8 days working on a research ship getting about zero rest/sleep time.

    Taking today off to get over jetlag and get myself settled back home, then back to the gm tomorrow!

    Hope you guys are all doing well!

    ok, well this might be cheating, but...
    i actually did lose a pound in Japan!

    weighed myself this morning and I'm down to 148lbs.
    that's the lowest I've been since this time last year. 11lbs to go til i reach my goal weight.

    definitely feel some extra motivation to hit the gym this afternoon.

    :happy:

    I know I have been MIA but I haven't done very well eating this week. When I weighed in on Monday I was down 2 lbs. YAY! It will be TOM any time now and I have been having cravings and munchies all week. UGH!!! Stupid hormones! Today I did great calorie-wise and I have still been working out all week.

    Kristen- Is the 30 Day Shred really hard? Are you real sore?

    hey!
    where did everyone go??
    hope you all had a great Halloween. i didn't do much, still too jetlagged.

    made it back into the gym today and did a 1 hour power yoga class follwed by 30 mins on the elliptical.
    good to be working out again.

    weigh in:
    147lbs
    pretty stoked about that, means i lost a couple of ounds while i was travelling without really trying (although it's a challenge finding vegetarian food in Japan)

    my goal is 137 lbs, so only 10lbs to go!

    My, we are all quiet this week. Me included -- I've been hanging out on a different thread for a few days. How is everyone doing? I haven't lost an ounce! I'm in a bad asthma cycle right now, so I can't do much cardio.

    I would like to join...

    Im 142
    I have no idea my size jeans...I've been jamming myself into my size 7-9 jeans...no idea what I really should be comfortably.
    My goal is 130

    A little background, since Ive never posted on here before. I was always in the 120-130 range, got pregnant, delivered at 206, went home at 190. Lost about 5 naturally. Worked my butt off to get down to 137, fell off the wagon and gained 5 back, possibly more at this point (I may be up a few, not sure, I'll find out Wednesday, as my scale here isnt consistent).

    Im looking for some help in the motivation department, hopefully I will be able to get it here!

    congratulations!

    i got back into my gym routine last week and worked out everyday, and lost no weight!
    but at least i am still holding steady at around 147lbs (within 0.5 lb), so no weight gained.

    i realised this weekend that i desperately need new running shoes. did a 4mile run on saturday and my shins were so sore on sunday i went and dropped $90 on a new pair of running shoes. painful financially, but hopefully much better for my body!

    power yoga today after work!
