Pmcovert45 I saw your response regarding 37, which is why I guessed 40. Since that was close I'll say 39.

You are much too kind!!! Thanks, I wish...

pmcovert415 40?

I track mine anyway. If there are a few others that want to track inches I'd be happy to join.

Not sure what I did, but when I updated ticker, it also changed it on my previous post. 2 miles on 3/3 3 miles on 3/4

I try to combine coupons with items from weekly sale flyers so I can stock up (especially on canned goods). We aren't on food stamps, but I try to stick to about $100 a week for 4 of us (including 2 teenage boys).

^^ Exactly!

Whether you exercise in the morning or evening doesn't really matter as much as that you are doing something. If you have a lot to lose you can always try breaking workouts into more frequent shorter sessions. (ex: 10 minutes in the morning, 10 in the evening). The main thing is that you are exercising. Finding a variety…

I'm in. Starting a couple days late, but will shoot for 50+. I'm doing a 5k in mid April, so hoping to up my pace.

It can be really hard to get back on track. But it is well worth the effort. Especially if you get back on track before you gain more than 3 lbs. I waited to long and had to start completely over. It seems to be much harder the second time around. You're still here asking for help, which would seem to mean that you haven't…

I'd love to join again. I agree that 8 lbs in a month is a lot, but I like to aim high. Since I'm down 14.2 since 1/1, 8 isn't that much of a stretch. But anything over 5 this month would be awesome. 3/1 178.8 3/8 3/15 3/22 3/29 Which puts my goal for challenge at 170.8 Good luck to everyone! We can do this!!!

2/1 182.6 2/8 181.2 2/14 179.8 2/22 181 3/1 178.8 Didn't make it to my goal this month, but definitely some progress.

SW: 193 (On 1/1) 2/21 181.2 2/27 179.8

I would say get it checked out.

Welcome back! I took a bit of a hiatus myself. Came back Jan 1. Feel free to add me.

2/1 182.6 2/8 181.2 (Yay, down 1.4 today!) 2/14 179.8 (down 1.4 since last week) 2/22 181 (the scale is not my friend this week) 3/1 Not going to make it anywhere near my goal for this month, but a little progress is better than none. Maybe if I drink more water this week the scale will be nice next week....

Muscles may be retaining water while they repair after lifting. Also make sure you are drinking enough water. (More water you drink= less water weight)

Weighing in late this week SW: 193 (On 1/1) 2/13 180 2/21 181.2 (Ugggh! Up 1.2, sure it's water weight, but still....) Hopefully next week will be better!

Thanks for making the spreadsheet. Would you mind changing my goal weight to 150?

If you are measuring everything correctly and you stay under your goal then, yes you should lose. If you only have 6 lbs to go, you should change goal to 1/2 lb per week.

Don't worry too much over 1 day's meal. I know it's difficult whenever you see the scale go up, but weight fluctuates. I sometimes have a 'cheat day' and my weight may go up a little for a day or two, but comes right back down. It's the general trend on the scale that is most important. It's when I consistently do what I…

My 'go to' pork recipe is really easy. As a matter of fact we had it tonight. Pork chops in casserole dish, sprinkle about 1/4 packet of Lipton Onion Soup mix, pour a few tablespoons of Fat Free French Dressing over them. Cover dish and bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until meat is cooked through.

I just started 30 day shred yesterday. Won't be able to do it today, but hope to get back to it tomorrow.

Weighing in a day early. Won't be able to weigh tomorrow morning. 2/1 182.6 2/8 181.2 (Yay, down 1.4 today!) 2/14 179.8 (down 1.4 since last week) 2/22 3/1 Down 2.8 since Feb 1st (and 13.2 since January 1)

^^ This Both my kids have bad asthma. While exercise can be a good thing for asthmatics it needs to be controlled. As far as swimming, I would be cautious if you are going to be swimming indoors, chlorine can trigger an attack.

^^^ exactly

SW: 193 (On 1/1) 2/6 183 2/13 180 (loss of 3 this week! YAY!!)

I'll do a virtual 5K with you. Let me know the date. Unless I am working a 12 hour shift that day, I'm in.

Welcome! Good luck!
