Or - get into a bathing suit so pictures can be taken that you don't want to immediately destroy! ;)

Can't wait to see how people are doing. As I posted below, not a great week for me - but onward and DOWNWARD (in weight that is - I hope!). Hope everyone did well.
Only down 1.2 pounds this week, but still working hard at it. Lots to do at work right now so that will be the hard part this coming week is keeping it going. Wish me luck. Hope you all had a great week!!!
1. up 1.4 lbs this week(so sad) 2. up 0.8% this week 3. down 5.6 lbs for the competition 4. down 3.09% for the competition
Not my best week - obviously! As I mentioned, my excuse is that I didn't start working out again for the week until Thursday and I did a little too much "celebrating" on Inaugural Day. But honestly, I did so much better than I would have pre-diet, so I consider that a win. I am feeling good and looking forward to thi sweek and gettin' back on track. Good to see evryone else is doing well.

BAD GIRL last night :'( I ate not only 1 but 2 bagels with regular cream cheese! I went to www.calorieking.com and realized it was about 770 calories OMG!!! I had a very crazy day plus a speeding ticket, which I know it shouldn't be an excuse to eat but I guess it was... I went to the gym 4 times for 50 minutes which was an improvement... I did not cook but my husband did and ate a delicious split pea and ham soup twice :) hehehe
Goals for this week: 1. Go to the gym at least 5 times for 45 minutes. 2. Do some cooking myself!!!
I think setting my goals here is helping me a bit to accomplish them. Hopefully this week I'll do better...

Lost what I gained last week. Going to the gym 4 times last week probably helped. I tried four different group classes to get me into the gym. I'm going to Zumba (www.zumba.com) classes and though I have two left feet through most of the class, it gives me a huge workout and calorie burn. Better than if I spent that hour on the eliptical. I'm also being more meticulous about logging my food.

Actually worked out 6 times this week - I knew Friday night was pizza night! Biggest challenge was making cookies with my daughter - I did okay with that, but not great -- but kept working out to make it work! The journaling is key for me because I know when I need to just have soup for a meal -- or get in an extra workout - or both!
Everyone is still on track! This is great motivation! Thanks again everyone!

Thanks Steg for the spreadsheet.
So i truly do beleive that my problem this week was eating out. I was not home any nights this week so cooking was not an option and fast food was the option.I knew that it was not going to be a good week because of that.
I did however find a new fun form of exercise, We were lucky enought to find a Wii Fit, I have became a super stepped and hula hooper, it is pretty cook becasue it keeps track of how many mins. you work, so i try to get up in the moring and at least do 20 mins to start my day.
Well again, i will put this week behind me and look to the future, i have another couple of busy weeks coming up so wishe me luck, i think i may make dinner the night before so It can just be cooked or heated the next night, and I can have the man put them in the over.
This was a hard week. I had so many cravings!! Darn chocolate!! Luckily, I didn't gain any weight, but didn't lose either. So, here are my numbers:
This week: 0 lbs, 0% Total: 7 lbs, 4.68%
I am a little frustrated because I am back at the weight I was before Christmas (gained a few pounds over the holiday). I had been at that plateau for awhile and now am worried I will get stuck there again!! I guess I just have to power through it!!
Good Luck Everyone.....You're all doing GREAT!
ReplyDeleteGood filler is eating a hearty (non-cream) soup. It is very filling. Snacks (2-3) low fat triscuits. High in fiber and also keep you full

Seems like I should be losing more as much as I'm working out, but as long as it is a loss, I'll take it.
A little worried because I'm going to have to start traveling for work again soon. Being gone a week at a time makes it tough to keep things going.
Keep working hard everyone.
