GO GET THEM TIGERS!!
I am struggling a little bit... I had an totally emotional, stressed-out pig out all week last week. I was upset about my foot, had a lot of changes going on at work, and was fighting with my boyfriend. I let it all get to me and had a great-big ole pitty party for myself. I ate everything I could get my hands on.
BUT today is a new day! I made it back into the gym yesterday. I could def. feel it in my foot, but it wasn't painful. Just sore. I weighed in up 3 pounds this morning, which I fully expected. Most of it is water, and I'm hoping that it will be gone by early next week and I can start losing in earnest.
Keep up the good work ladies!
great attitude. I skipped working out for 6 DAYS!! and jumped back on yesterday, I wasn't too surprised to see only a minor loss. It is my time of the month and I just feel awful and really cranky. I am trying not to use that as an excuse. We can do this!
- Week 1 weight: 167 (BMI 28.7 "moderately over-weight")
- Week 2 weight: 163 (BMI 28.0 "moderately over-weight")
- Week 3 weight: 163 again. Not sure what's going on here, but I've been working out a lot more, so maybe it has to do with that. I expect it to drop next week.

Plan: Get a good stretch in, walk my puppy
I finally have been getting the exercise in I want. Yesterday I did a 3 mile jog with a little jogging, and it really felt good!! I am proud to be doing 3 miles, when you have a lot of extra weight it can be a bit tough to jog. The thing I need to improve on is my eating habits, they are still really bad.
I hope everyone has a great day!!!
Happy Hump day everyone...

I have had a really hard week staying on track and only worked out 1 day. I am going to try harder this week and stay commited.

- Week 2 weight: 163 (BMI 28.0 "moderately over-weight")
- Week 3 weight: 163

*EDIT* I re-evlauated my activity level and decided to change it from sedentary to light activity since I work out 5-6 times a week now. This upps my calorie goal from 1200 to 1350, so we shall see how that goes.

hello all,
maybe we should re open this group so we can add people it seems as though we have lost almost everyone.
Yeah, I think we should. I tried to post wednesday but it just wouldn't take...Last weigh in was 188.7.
How can I reduce body fat without running?
I can see on the back end that your current Body Mass Index (BMI) is 19.1, which is within the healthy weight range albeit on the low end... Read more
