Woo! Challenge complete! I'll weigh in tomorrow but like @huango I didn't actually see much loss this time around- BUT I feel leaner and stronger! I took these gym selfies yesterday: Looking forward to weigh in tomorrow and seeing everybody's awesome results!! Jamie

So I've been really slacking for this challenge! I'm actually the same exact weight from when I started! Ugh! Sometimes I just have to remind myself: 1. Weight loss is not linear 2. Trust the process 3. As you get nearer to your goal weight, you have to really tighten up on your logging and weighing foods (this is where I…

You rock!!!! Awesome job!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful long wknd! My husband and I just lounged around and relaxed for the most part, but the highlight of my weekend was going to a burlesque show for the first time! While I was a little anxious and had no idea what to expect- it was amazing!! The women who were onstage were confident and…

Happy Friday! Had a good weigh in and found I'm at 34.6 lbs! A lb down from last week, when I let my diet really slip for several days. I'm volunteering at the Brooklyn Half Marathon tomorrow morning- very excited to be giving out water to amazing runners! Hoping to be inspired to really commit to training for a half soon…

Great job!! I am struggling at 135 at the moment... I know when you get close to those last lbs, diet becomes extra important! But it's so hard!! And summer makes me want to eat ice cream!!!
-
So it's Thursday and I am writing a post to keep myself accountable for the next couple days!! This week has been a huge struggle due to my cycle starting and a couple incidents where, out of nowhere(!!!) chocolate chip cookies attacked me!! :# And I was so fatigued and dealing with cramps, I didn't make it to the gym…

Happy Monday! It's been a very slow and frustrating wk for me! No change in weight and if anything, I am extra bloated due to my cycle starting soon. Just ugh. My win for the past week was sticking to my diet and making the right choices, even through the weekend and even at a restaurant! My goal for this week is to…

Happy Monday! I have to admit, much like @huango, I took a break from logging over the weekend. I just needed some time off from scrutinizing everything I ate. The past week was awesome, in terms of sticking to my low carb goal and hitting the gym. But by Friday, I was exhausted from it and needed a break. A frustrating…

Hi! Are you using a fitbit? I have my fitbit linked to the MFP app and it works by calculating an avg step count throughout the day and giving you calories burned if you keep that average until the end of day. That's why, if you walk a ton in the morning, it will give you an estimated calories burned if you continue that…

Happy Monday! Had a pretty relaxed weekend with my eating- funny how the seeing the sun after such a long time makes you want to eat chicken fingers and drink beer!! Oh well- now that I got that out of my system, I can reboot for the wk! Goals this wk are to get back to a healthy diet. For the next couple weeks, I'm making…

Nice work so far everyone! And hi! to all newcomers!! @jgrabowski33 nice work!! @sellerskennington I agree with others- anything strengthening your quads and glutes will help tighten inner thighs. Squats, lunges, and box jumps! @huango you are amazing and don't let others tell you otherwise!! Sadly, they are probably just…

@readyornot1234 haha I got third place with 24K steps! Can u believe it??

Happy Sunday everyone! Sounds like people have some awesome plans! I am committed to going running today because my mother-in-law and husband challenged me to a Fitbit challenge this wknd and I am in last place with 13,000 steps! Gotta get those steps in!!

Hi all! Please add me as a friend on MFP if you haven't already! Love all the motivation on here!! @huango congrats on the recent loss!! Has anyone tried the app Spitfire Fitness? It's a training app with workouts created by nutritionists and trainers and it's pretty awesome! I'm only on my first week, but I'm trying out…

Literally LOL'd at these! Thought I'd share- enjoy! http://www.popsugar.com/fitness/Funny-Workout-Videos-36560189

@huango looks delicious!! My husband is out of town during this wknd too, so I am thankfully spared the usual Easter feast! I'll be trying to keep to my routine and get in some extra gym time :)

Please add me if you haven't already! I am pretty active on my own MFP app and love to give you all encouraging comments on your kick *kitten* progress!!

So I realized tomorrow is actually the first of April, but I got too excited and did my final weigh in today! SW: 140 CW: 135.6 Woo! Not quite 10 lbs but halfway to my goal, and this challenge helped me to finally break through being stuck at 140 for over a month! Super thankful for everyone's support! Can't wait to get…

Wow- a wk left until April!! I can't believe how supportive and awesome being a part of this group has been! Looking forward to keeping it going! I'll save my final weigh in numbers for next wk, but I had a great NSV this morning. Two years ago (yup two whole years!) when I was 30 lbs heavier, I bought a super nice Calvin…

@huango @sellerskennington the snow is continuing to come down in Midtown! I walk throughout the city during my day, visiting different clients, so I have my trusty Hunter boots with the liners working for me :) I think it's about 3-6 inches in the city right now. I workout in the afternoon/ evening, depending on when my…

I eat back my exercise calories. If you calculated your daily cal goal through MFP, then it already accounts for a deficit based on your goals. So if you eat back your exercise cals, you are still eating at a deficit. Also, I use it as motivation to exercise! Because if I exercise, then I can have that extra helping of…

Happy March! My current stats: SW: 140 CW: 138.8 GW: 130 One more month to go! We should probably continue after April with a spring challenge?
