  • PW: 144.5 CW: 144.3 Still in maintaining mode. I would love to see the 130's but I'm happy where I'm staying at.
  • So I went with the calories burnt instead of the minutes I've exercised. I'm still not done for today as I will be heading to the gym in about 10 minutes, but I probably won't be able to log those tonight because I've got class right after I get done @ the gym. So for the week to date: Thursday: 606 Friday: 343 Monday: 486…
  • PW: 148.7 (which was because I ate a tenderloin the night before) CW: 144.5 Whoo Hoo at least I know what puts the weight on for a day or two. I just have to remember not to eat anything greasy the night before weigh in.
  • I am back on to the no soda, I haven't had a soda since Sunday. I am going to work on 3 days straight without a soda. As for the sit-ups or crunches, well they don't exist on my diary for this past week. :( I really cannot be sad about something I am not working on doing.
  • Watch your portion sizes. Also, don't eat all of your calories back, only eat some of them back.
  • I love Bob, and I have his "Skinny Rules", I think I am pretty good at getting protein every meal. I cannot think of a time that I haven't gotten protein, but as to if it is really enough, I don't know. I also just tried a chocolate Whey protein powder today and it tastes so good. I am thinking I will try to get this added…
  • How did you get your amount of steps? This is interesting or is it that you add them up daily and put them on?
  • I have not been doing so well on not having a soda. UGH! I had good intentions not to and then Friday I went and got one for a 2 hour drive. Yesterday I ad one will I took an exam and today I've had one for at work. I have been drinking lots of water though. I had a water before I left for work this morning and am going on…
  • PW: 146 CW: 148.7 ( I could be wrong on the .7, but it is close) I'm sure this is because I ate a tenderloin last night. Every time I eat a tenderloin before weigh in I gain a couple of pounds, but I did eat a few handful of chips Tuesday night also. I ran a 5K yesterday, so at least I had some form of exercise.
  • One my way to being 2 days without a diet soda. Unless I give in to one for my hour drive to my hometown tonight. So far, I don't even want one. As for the crunches or sit-ups, I am waiting on those. I have however, done 100 jumping jacks, not that they burn a lot of calories.
  • I don't know any low sodium foods. All I can say is if you get deli meat then make sure it has low sodium. Another thing is to just check the nutritional information when you are buying your food. I don't know what you eat, so I am not much help, but just check your foods for low sodium.
  • I try to make sure I eat at least 1200 calories a day. I have my calorie intake set at 2000 calories, but that is with the calorie burn included. So I might eat 2000 calories, but with a workout my net is 1200 to 1400 a day. I work out a couple times a day, especially when I was trying to lose a lot of weight, and for 5 to…
  • Oh my, this is great. I have been having a problem drinking a lot of soda of late. Although I had decided today that I was not going to have a soda. Somedays I can go without, especially if I put my mind to it, but other days it's like a stress reliever to be able to drink a diet soda. I will definitely be trying the…
  • PW: 146 CW: 147 I am up a pound but I'm not going to let it get me down. I have a knee that is giving me problems this week, but I need to give it a rest. I also had my 1st workout session with a trainer today. FEELING GREAT!!!! The only thing I'm not feeling good about is a class that has me stressed.
  • PW: 146.6 CW: 146 I will take it. My goal right now is not to gain weight and just try to maintain my weight. I think I'm doing a pretty good job of doing that since I lost .6.
  • PW: 149 CW: 146.6 I am also now just trying to maintain my weight, I'm glad that this challenge is just about over with. I wouldn't have been able to do it without my friends on My Fitness Pal.
  • I am as long as it doesn't have anything to do with weighing because I'm only 10lbs away from my goal weight.
  • I was just thinking that I don't want this to end. Maybe we can think of challenges to do after the weigh ins are over. So instead of doing weigh ins, we do challenges and find the best person. GOOD JOB EVERYONE!!!
  • Last week my PW was: 149.2 This week my CW is: 149. It might be lower than that, but I forgot to weigh this morning and then I forgot to weigh this afternoon until after I ran. I know that I am always higher after running so I will go with the weight I was earlier in the week.
  • I also have 15lbs left to lose. They are the hardest ones to lose. I would suggest switching up your workout or may work 5/6 days a week instead of 4/5 days. You might need that extra day. Also, like the last guy said maybe start counting your calories and watching your portion sizes. GOOD LUCK!!
  • I am going to stick with running, but I am going to push a little harder. I have been running on average about 23.1 miles per week. I am planning on running 25 miles and putting in some walking at the end of my run. I have a 4 mile run coming up in 2 weeks, so I really cannot change what I am working towards at the moment.…
  • As I am on right now I will put that I am still at gained but nothing lost either. PW: 149.2 CW: 149.2 I really hope that being on vacation and not being around a scale, that I will at least lose something. I guess I can't complain if I gain, but I am trying hard not to gain. I am running in the mornings and we are walking…
  • I use MFP and I also have the link fit armband by bodymedia. I have both set to 1750 for calories. When I exercise and log it onto MFP I eat my calories back sometimes, because I don't net 1200 calories otherwise. On bodymedia it always says I got over my calori limit. I usually try to go by my calories burnt on my…
  • To my team, I am sorry I won't be anywhere near a scale this week, so I am staying at nothing lost but nothing gained.
  • PW: 150.6 CW: 149.2 I actually thought I was going to gain this week because of the stuff I ate on Mothers Day.
  • Let me just say that I am all for this, although Fridays are my rest day, but I might get a walk in.
  • Just a thought but maybe instead of how many calories burnt you could do something about how many hours the team worked out. My thinking is that if the teams are not even on weight, then the team with that weighs the most will end up winning, because they will burn more calories. Just so you know what I mean: if one team…
  • PW: 152 CW: 150.6 I hate having to remember what I weighed in @ last week, I can never remember. Anyway, glad I'm getting closer to the 140's.
  • I usually do oatmeal with honey in it, cereal, eggs or pancakes. Depends on how fast I am trying to get out of my apartment to get to the gym. It also depends on what my daughter will eat with me. We have to have the same thing, otherwise I will not get to eat my food. I also have my milk every once in a while. I don't…
  • PW: 153.2 CW: 152 I finally lost the 2 pounds I gained a couple of weeks ago. Heading in the right direction, hopefully will lose enough this next week to be in 140's. We shall see since we think my grandma might have colon cancer and I'm on my finals week for school.
