    - Eat in 6 out of the 7 days this week. Try to avoid EATING OUT!
    6/19, 6/20, 6/21, 6/25 and I will eat at home tonight too

    - Add some WEIGHT TRAINING to your workout routine if you don't already!
    I already do weight training. Roughly every other time I work out. Sadly, my back has been hurting pretty bad so I havnt worked out this week. Starting back on Monday I will though!

    - Pick one day and PAMPER yourself.
    Fiends are coming over Saturday and sleeping over. We are gonna hang out, go in the pool, and watch movies. Just a day to relax, I consider this my pampering.


    SW= 170 lbs
    Wi1= 168.6 lbs
    Wi2= 166 lbs
    Wi3= 164.6lbs

    Wi4= 163.5

    Hello-
    I wish I could have entered yesterday's weight, I was down a pound. The scale was not as nice today.
    Last week: 132.4
    Today: 132.8
    I started the 30 Day Shred on Sunday, so hopefully next week will be awesome! I've read you can feel a big difference in your body by day 5. We shall see....
    Good luck everyone this week!

    Checking in -
    weight today is 214.6

    I don't normally eat out often (anymore). But when I do I make sure I use my restaurant app to choose the best meal for my goals. I did eat home cooked meals about 95% of my meals though. (My mom and I have standing date on Sundays for 'brunch' after church, and if we go shopping together on Saturday's, we always hit Subway.)

    I had a class that incorporated weight training and treadmill and we use 'weights' in water aerobics. (Does picking up grandkids count?)

    I actually have pamper times every month when I get my pedicure and face waxed. Last week wasn't my week to go.


    This week's challenges will be easy and hard.... I am spending the whole week with my grandkids and one of their cousins having a staycation. Fun things planned everyday!!

    Not sure what I can track that I don't normally, since I don't want to lose the trackings I currently have on MFP, and they only allow so many.

    Pushups.... hmmm..... I remember doing them in Navy boot camp back in 1982. I'm sure I've done them since. Maybe I'll challenge the grandkids to do them with me.

    Have a great week everyone!!

    Tomorrow's the next weigh-in! How will we do?!

    New Challenges:
    - Challenge yourself to 50 PUSH-UPS for the week (if 50 is too easy for you or isn't practical, pick a more achievable but still challenging goal)
    - Pick one of your NUTRIENTS that you track and have difficulty with (besides carbs - so protein, carbs, sodium, etc.) and work at getting better at hitting goals/staying under maximums
    - Share some time with SOMEONE YOU LOVE

    This is a good one. I am going to go with sugar since I'm diabetic and still struggle to hit the goal even though I've done much better than I used to.

    My weigh in was 171.2
    I think I've lost since last week. Can't remember.

    Hard to get motivated when it's 122 degrees outside (deployed military) but i want to lose 27 pounds by november 1st to look great for my family when i return home. so far, 7 days of nailing the calorie limit, run/elliptical every other day, adding core exercises one at a time until i'm comfy doing them.

    Good morning everyone! I am weighing in this week at 143lbs...down 1lb from last week. I didn't do too well with the challenges this week as I travelled for wok 2 days this week and spent Saturday at an amusement park with my boyfriend and his nephew. It is a new week with new challenges and I will meet each of them! Best of luck to you all. :flowerforyou:

    SW: 190
    CW: 184
    GW: 168

    Lost 2lbs since last week. Feel like I've hit a plateau though :/ Can't seem to break through 184.. Tried shocking my body by eating more than I normally would for 2 days, but still... Could also have something to do with my boyfriend being abroad which make me completely lose my appetite for a whole week... It's better now so we'll see what happens next week :)

    Down 3.2 lbs this week!

    As far as the objectives for this past week's challenges, 1) Eat in 6/7 days- Bombed this one. We ate out more than we ate in :-/
    2) Add some weight training: DONE! Been doing 30 day shred! My shoulders, abs and legs are burning and screaming at me! Great feeling! 3) Pamper yourself 1 day- My 6 year old daughter and I got pedicures on Saturday! So nice!

    Ready to take this week on! Keep up the great work everyone!!!

    Andrea, you can pick something you already track on MFP. Just pick one to pay more attention to and work on honing more than you usually do. If you find one that gives you more trouble, concentrate on it more this week.
