Up 2 pounds this week. I suck. That's what happens when for weeks you work like crazy, eat like crap, and completely stop exercising. It catches up to you eventually.

No change for me this week.

Okay ladies, the weekend is upon us! Let's keep our strength and momentum going so we have a good weigh in on Monday! The scale was my friend this morning, but my official weigh in is on Monday so I'm going to wait until then. I'm always up on Monday from Friday's weigh in due to the weirdness of the weekends. I will be…

Wow! I'm loving this group! Everyone is doing so great with running and shimmying and swimming, oh my! I'm so happy for everyone. Makes me want to do better too!

I just ran 2.66 miles without stopping! I'm pretty darn proud of myself. My goal is to keep up with this crazy 10k training that I decided to put upon myself. Tomorrow is 30DS day. Let's keep the momentum going ladies!

Wow! Nice losses ladies! Let's keep it up! I need to drink more water. Too much sodium in my life lately!!! That's what I'm going to work on this week.

Lots of activity from everyone so far! Great job and keep it up! I am training for a 10k...a new personal goal of mine. So I ran last night, tonight will be 30DS, Thursday I will run, Friday rest, Sat and Sun run. I am already seeing loss on the scale from Monday's horrific weigh in. I feel good that I'm doing something…

Sorry, the gain is mostly my fault. I'm having a rough time lately. Totally TOM and overeating and lots of mental games going on.

I'm humiliated by this number...153...up 4 lbs. My weight popped back up right after last Monday's weigh in and has stayed high all week. Now TOM is here so I'm guessing it explains the gain, but boy is it soooo frustrating.

My goal is to be able to complete a 10K by the end of this round. I start training this week.

149 this morning after a weekend of beer, snacks and birthday cake!

151.5 - up again and up for the entire round. It's sorta how this whole round has gone for me. Interesting side note...I was at 148.5 on Saturday morning and out of curiosity I weighed myself Saturday night - I gained SIX pounds from morning til night. Isn't that crazy??? I've only lost half of it as of this morning, which…

149 for me. Too many graduation parties and not enough exercise makes for an ugly Monday weigh in. :grumble:

I'm having a hard time finding time to exercise too. I started the week off good and ran on Monday night. My NEW plan is that I would run every other day, but I missed Wednesday and Thursday, so I'm screwing up my own plan already. So I'd like to run tonight but my son has a baseball game, my daughter needs her hair cut…

Good job, my friend. This is a success to celebrate!

I know, right? WTF happened to this group?

No change this week. :(

I had a great weigh in on Monday but slowly I'm creeping up already. The sodium levels have been way too high these last few days. Need to drink up! :drinker:

I'm at about week 7 and I'm finally seeing the loss. I gained and held that gain. I wasn't happy about it at all, but I stuck with it. My clothes were so tight. I felt so bloated and huge. Then, last week I finally lost ONE pound. It felt like a miracle. One whole pound! It had been so long since I had seen any progress, I…

Congrats. I'm really happy for you!

You are a great MFP friend and a great inspiration. I have you to thank for my own accomplishments since I would have never completed C25K or ran in two 5K's last year if it wasn't for your support! I am proud of you and in awe of your dedication. I'm so glad I "met" you! Hugs to my BrtyeSmile! :flowerforyou:

149 :smile:

Yes I like this group a lot even though I'm gaining weight!!! That's due to my own thing I've got going on here (quit smoking, upping calories, lots of bad weekends with special events) and I'm trying to regulate it and get back in the right direction. What is ONE thing you will do REALLY well between now and Monday's…

I'm totally in the same boat angelina! I'm messing with that calculator too. Not knowing exactly how many calories when I work out is scary. Plus, I've done nothing but gain in the last several weeks. My clothes are tight and I'm concerned!

150 :(

No change this morning, even though I was down 2 pounds during the week. That's about how my weeks have been going lately. Too many special events over the weekends that completely blow my work during the week. However, I ran 5 out of the last 7 days. I'm hoping that upping my exercise will break through this gain/plateau…

So I ran on Monday night and it felt good to get back to it. Last night I was going to skip it since I was out and about with the kids after work and didn't get home until 9pm-ish. When I got home my non-exercising husband told me he had been on the treadmill for an hour and lifted weights. I was so mad...okay,…

Just got off the treadmill and it felt awful and then great. It's been awhile so the beginning was rough but once I was warmed up and the tunes were blasting I got into the zone. My weigh in sucked this morning and my clothes are tight so it's time for me to get my run on. I've decided that 30DS isn't enough. Last year…

Karen_thinmin - I'm glad you came here to post! It's better to get it out and not hold any of that crap in. Sounds like your friend's boyfriend is a jerk. Ignore him and his dumb comments. He doesn't know jack. You care about yourself enough to do this right and give your body the gift of being healthy. You should be proud…

Not sure if I'll see any loss next week because my siblings and I are throwing a 50th wedding anniversary party for my parents on Saturday. Special occassion where I will not worry about calories that evening. I will do my best during the week so that hopefully Saturday won't have too much of an impact. I've slacked on…
