Everyone is Welcome
I am weighing in now.
Beginning weight: 189
Last week: 174
Today: 172
Total lost: 17 pounds yea!!!
When I weigh 170.5 I will be 1/4 of the way to my goal of 115. I think I should get a nice reward once I get a 1/4 of the way....right? I already went to the Goodwill store and bought some smaller clothes on Wednesday afternoon. I won't go buy them new since I plan on shrinking out of them. Maybe I will go buy more :) :P Or maybe I will go buy one thing new??
Beginning weight: 290
GGG beginning weight: 218
Last week: 218
Today: 217
Special comment: PMS, want to eat much toast and butter... what is that carve craving about? I think I will weigh again Monday morning, after my bike race just to measure water weight and impact of the high intensity exercise. I might need to up my calories a bit to offset the exercise. I have been ravenous is the morning (stomach growl, the whole bit) this past week.
Fat - 29.2% (77 grams)
Protein - 25.0% (149 grams)
Carbohydrates - 45.9% (273 grams)
Calories 2223
No exercise today, aside from the 1.09 miles of walking to get to and from my medical appt. Back to totally clean eating tomorrow.
So this is official weigh in day huh? Hmmmm, I weighed 3 lbs more, ha ha. I'm hoping it has something to do with water retention. I worked out a lot this week! Anyway, I know it will pay off, I'm not going to stress over those numbers as much. I'm going to look at clothes size. The clothes don't lie, but the scales do sometimes. Anyway, for the record, my weight was 292 this morning.
For those of you who haven't looked at Molly's page, here are some quotes that she has posted on there. I like them all and wanted to share with you. I'm going to pick one for my diet moto.

203.5
My weight has been all over this week due to TTOTM. I was like 206.5 three days ago and have been dropping a pound a day since. I must be shedding water weight or something. I'm hoping for something like 201 next week! Please! :D
I think as of today I've been dieting for, hmmm, let's see...35 years?!!
I'm am trying to compose my GGG toast for our "official" start day tomorrow, how do these grab you:
"Jesus is neat, let's eat!"
"Sniff w/ the nose, taste w/ the tongue, watch out stomach, here it comes."
"Gimme lean!"
"Who wants pie?"
"I love my thighs!" ("To your thighs," "Here here," "hooray, thigh jiggles all around," "energy drinks and H20 on the house!")
I'm going for gold! 2008 is my graduation year. I want to graduate at 120 pounds, although 130 would be fine as well. I want to be STRONG (well, cardio-speaking)
1200 calories a day, with a little more every few days, depending on my day.
I run 3 miles whenever I can, but then eat back (or already ate over) to 1200.
And I just bought an ipod!!! So I can listen to MUSIC when I run!!!
AANNDD, I'm really excited to try the ellipticals. I have a friend who can do those for ages, as opposed to the treadmill. So, variety :)
140 - 145 pounds right now... :) I'll weigh myself tomorrow, and start Dec. 1st.
My mini goal is to simply NOT GAIN WEIGHT during the holiday season... But reaching 135 - 130 would be great too :)
Calories: 1909 Fat - 18.7% (41 grams) Protein - 23.2% (114 grams) Carbohydrates - 58.1% (286 grams)
Exercise -- 60 minutes tae kwan do (720 calories, good workout) 30 minutes walking
I bet it feels strange not to have to think about "the man" ha ha.
I can't remember his name.
I will toast with a juice!
I had a rough day of eating out. I had a plan but my husbands boss grabbed us for lunch and I gave in. I worked all day cleaning my husband office. I didn't do too badly, but I haven't logged anything. I exercised 3 days in a row but missed today, but worked hard, sweating, cleaning.
I'm not going to beat myself up, I'll do better tomorrow!

Went to the gym yesterday--upper body weight training and core exercises.
dwf hi, glad you got done with your move so you are here with us :)
I am reporting my calories from yesterday,,1203. No exercise as usual, a little bit of housework though. Today I have major housework to do though because I have a fellwoship group from our church coming at 6:00. Ughhhh! I haven't been around all week and now I need to clean up the mess....ugh!
Lat week: 168.8
This week: 167.2 (Down 1.6 pounds)
Wooo! Want to hit all my goals in the next year! Hang on, let me change that. I'm going to hit all my goals in the next year!
*lose 20lbs 140-120
*get my BF% down from 20 to 15
*get a haircut (i just really need one!)
*run a half marathon (going for the GNR (great north run))
*eat more fibre and protein
*smile more
I think the things above may double up as my new years resolution too, along with finishing the Complete works of Oscar Wilde and getting at least half way through The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (I'd go for the whole thing, but I would have to dedicate my entire year to that!).
Dances, so glad for you that things are going well, and Molly, congrats! :)
December 1st today. I toast to all of you and wish you all nothing but the best for your entrance into the new year...the new YOU!
2008...here we come...and we're not backing down! Cheers!!
To the beginning of our journey. To becoming healthier, happier and THINNER in 2008!!!!!
Here's to day #1!!!!!
On the go andin the know.
