Nothing like a bad tooth ache and root canal to kick start some loss. As happy as I am with this drop, Iknow its temporary since its because I haven't ate much this week. It does motivate me to know I CAN get to the 160's

Hmmm. Not as good as I'd hoped for - especially since it's a gain from what I was at a couple days ago. Still, I'm not concerned by it at this point. I've controlled my calorie intake pretty well, but my sodium intake over the last couple of days has been kind of high so some of this is probably excess water due to the sodium intake. In addition, I've started adding some muscle development work to complement my cardio. From what I understand, that is going to cause my muscles to need a little more water for a while to repair and build.
The good news? I've added some heavy weight lifting to my routine.
The bad news? Doing pushups with this body counts as lifting heavy weight... 
(I've started the 100 pushups challenge, as of Tuesday. Yesterday was Day 2, and the 55 pushups last night are hurting a bit today. LOL.)

Total weight loss: 5.6 SOMEBODY PINCH ME!!!!
I logged my weight yesterday, because I was so stoked that I had lost 5 pounds!! (And because I feared I would somehow have gained water weight or something this morning.) But when I got on the scale this morning, it read 191.4!!!! I actually stepped off, pushed the button again, and stepped up again to see if it was a mistake!!! I PRAY I can lose and KEEP OFF another 1.4 to make my goal by next Friday!! (How cool would it be if I lost 1.6???? I'd be in the 80's!!!)
ok, very sick so i will keep it short 191 fo me

Better luck next week!

Good luck.
Orangeloft - Good job with the water and exercise this week! it's showing in the weight loss. :]
Hope you can make it into the 70's by next friday!
Leanne21071 - Sweet as if you don't reach your goal, there's always next month.
But if you keep up your exercise and keep on watching what you eat closely you might just make it so try to stay positive! you can do it!

Thanks, i hope it's just water weight.
Think i'll weigh again tomorrow and see if it's still there or not.
Sharem - Maybe you just needed some time off! but still, you're down almost half a pound this month so at least you haven't gained!
One more week to go, come on you can do it! Just muster up all that energy inside you and work really hard this week.

Ceclark77 - Sweet as, hope you feel better soon, yeah?
Blah not feeling well today...
Think i took too many painkillers yesterday.
I'm not sure if i should workout or not.
Probably shouldn't...
Urgh, but at least i've been good with calories today! 
You guys (and girls :P) are all doing so well this month! i'm so proud of you all!
Keep it all up, just 6 more days to go!
Restless ~ I'm sorry to hear you're not feeling well. What are you on painkillers for? I wouldn't workout until you're feeling better, which I hope is soon!! Thank you so much for putting this thread together and working so diligently on tracking everybody's progress!! You're a doll!! Feel better.
Thanks.
I got a popcorn kernal stuck in my tooth about a week and a half ago and in my enthusiasm to get it out i think i dislodged my tooth or something.
It's been achey and sort of wiggly since...
Stupid popcorn!!!
Plus my wisdom teeth are coming up so the rest of my teeth are all achey too.
Anyway, i was sick of it yesterday so i was taking panadol throughout the day but i ended up taking too many.
I'm sure i'll be fine.
I'm feeling better tonight. Thank you.
I hope you're better today. Have you seen a dentist yet? Wiggly teeth are not a good sign. I hope it stays put for you. I love popcorn and I like to chew up the old maids, so far I've just been lucky!
Thank you for the encouragement! I'm a little stiff today but am looking forward to some good results with in the next six months! This is the only body I'm gonna get, so it's time to get it in shape and treat it right, while I still can.
