The 3500 calorie deficit is for the week, correct???

Starting weight is 156 LBS. I have to say that I went on a junk food binge last night. I don't know why I do such things. In the back of my mind I was justifying it because I knew I was starting this challenge today. Started this morning off with sugar free oatmeal, bananas and walnuts. Heading to my Zumba class today!!…

Count me in!!! I have just started back today on MFP. I am going to aim a little higher than 5 lbs., maybe 8 lbs. I need to get down to my goal weight by Oct. 1, to fit into my wedding dress. We are renewing our vows and it is time for me to get serious. I will weigh in tomorrow!!!

You can add me. I am recently back to MFP. I had to take some time away for work and me. I am back and need to get on track again. I need friends and motivation.

Hi, I am sorry, I had to go to church early this morning and forgot to weigh. I feel like I have gained 10 lbs this week. I have a schedule change for work in the morning so I know I won't get on the scale then. Maybe I just need to step out of this challenge and try for the next one. I will check back in Tues.

Sorry, I haven't been on here. I have been out of town with no computer access. I guess I will skip this weeks weigh-in. I know I have gained, my clothes are snug.

Heidi, I feel ya girl. I have been doing the same thing for months now. I have hovered at 149 - 155, I just can't get below 148 lbs. It is like a mental block. I get there and then start snacking again. This past week I managed to gain: I am at 152.2 lbs. I am not understanding it. I watched my calorie intake and doubled…

Hello all, my starting weight for this challenge is 150.2. Gw will be 145.2 I am starting this challenge with a gain from the St. Pat challenge. TOM is here and I am holding water. Next week will be a loss..

bump

My final weight is 148.9, Yeah!! My starting weight was 152.6 lbs. I know the list has my weights wrong. I my have listed them wrong in the beginning. With me being a Newby and not understanding the codes. I am very Happy with the Loss, I have had quit a few battles during this challenge and am getting closer to my goal…

Last week 152.8 This week 149.8 I have 2.2 lbs to go to meet this challenge. It could happen but it not I am still glad to finally be out of the 150's. WOO HOO!!!!

Sorry, I haven't been on the computer all week. I have been sick with an upper respiratory infection. I did get on the scale and I gained .2. Not to bad considering I have done nothing but eat and sleep. I promise to do better next week.

No lbs. lost this week, not a surprise, I ate very badly this weekend and TOM is here. I should see a deficit next week..

Hello to the newbies. I did great with food, water and exercise today. I did 30 DS lev 1 before work. After work I did 2 mile interval on TM, I even made it up to 3 min. Question, is my whole body suppose to hurt when I run?? My new shoes must not be correct because after 1 mile my toes start going numb..

Today, I finally got myself back on track with my eating. Last night I did 2 mile interval on the TM. I am having a hard time getting past 2 mins, I think my body is just getting adjusted to running again. Tonight I did intervals but with different machines and did weight training circuits in between. I did the step…

YESSSS, I am starving after a workout. I just have a cheese string. Protein is good for building muscle.

great job!!! I had to resize my picts. I did mine in photobucket.com. I started my journey at 186 lbs and my goal weight is 130 lbs. How long did it take you to get there? Did you use MFP the whole time?

I have to say I know where you are coming from. I have been down the same road. Overeaters will give you the support in person if that is what you want. The main thing I got from them is to turn it over to God, he is the one who will give you the strength to get thru the day and if you think you can't make it he will carry…

Ok Ladies, I weighed in this morning and I am down .8. I can't believe it with the weekend I have had, I didn't do good with my eating yesterday either. I did make it to the gym. 2 miles intervals, I am having a hard time getting past 2 min., I don't know if it is my body just getting use to running again or if it is in my…

hello everyone, I haven't weighed in today, I will in the morning. I have a feeling it will be a gain. TOM is here and I have been sick. I eat everything in sight when I don't feel well, why is that??? I know I am carying alot of water today because my BIG girl pants on tight around my waste and they usually fall off..…

Yesterday I did good with my calories and water. I started feeling sick by the end of my shift last night and didn't get much sleep the night before so I skipped the gym. This morning I am still feeling pretty bad. I had a workshop for kids church this morning and ended up eating half of a glazed donut and a couple of mini…

For some reason you will have to save the url address. I saved mine in my favorites and then go to change it that way. I don't know why you can't just click on it and go directly to the page. That is how I did it when I was on JM's site.

Thanks you everyone for your nice comments. I just wanted to put those picts up so I can keep it real. I hadn't even realized I was that big until recently. It is funny how the mind works. I still look in the mirror and see what I looked like when I weighed 170 lbs but I still didn't think I was that big until I got to…

I soooo agree with Celeste. People are jealous that you have the nerve to change you life. Some people are just to scared to try or they just don't care about theirselves. You are doing the right thing. Remember it doesn't matter what other people think, it is really important what you think. I think it is awesome that…

I will be more than glad to be your support. I will add you as my friend. I know exactly how you feel with 2 steps forward and two back. I have been doing that for almost 5 months now. I am hoping to break that cycle in these next few weeks.. Good Luck, just keep taking babysteps forward and don't look back.

Good for you, it is a great feeling to go down a size smaller even better when it is smaller than you thought.

Yea!! You got it..

Today, I did great with food, water and exercise. I did 5.8 mile pedo, 1.5 elliptical and 4.5 stat bike. I have to pass on the strength training for the next two weeks. I have pulled a muscle in my shoulder. Doc said to let it rest, but I get all tensed up at work and it starts burning before I get home at night.. it may…

My SW 152.6 CW 147.6 I am have been yo-yoing from 149 lbs to 156 for the past three months. It is time to break that cycle. I know that 5 lbs isn't much but I am having alot of stress right now and it is taking a toll on my weight. My DH hasn't worked since Oct. and if he doesn't get a job soon, things will be real bad.…
