lisseth83 - March 1st  129.2 lbs . Total weight loss for challenge : 8.6 Lbs.

is it too early for the weigh in?!  i'm so excited!!!  LOL  not sure why...  i should've lost more, but STILL haven't exercised in like 4 days now.  hubby is home now for the weekend, so i'll probably walk off about 5 miles...  just to hopefully get him to do it too  :D  he's kinda stuck at 236 - 240.  he just keeps going up & down & up & down.  i keep telling him that's better than keeping going up!!!  he's down from 293 on 9/4.

anyway, i guess i'll wait...  who's 1st?!

I guess I'm first to weigh in.  It's unbelievable, but I'm at 190.9 today, which is like a loss of 3 lbs!  It's TOM for me, so I think when I first weight on Monday, it was because of that, so this is probably normal for me, but still!  I'm taking it.  I've been very good this week, working out and journaling everything!YAY!

i think i was 169 when i 1st signed up, and 167 today. that's only 2 pounds, but i'll take it :D

at least i haven't binged! i've been on the edge for days!!! i just won't let myself because i know i have to weigh in on saturdays now. :D this group really helps me alot!!! thanks

snowfence, 2 lbs is great for a week and totally normal!  I looked back, and I was 194.6 at the beginning, so that's 3.7 lbs!  WOW!

Ok I'm next!

Last Saturday I was at 186 and today the scale shows 183.4 - for a 2.6 pound loss! 

Small, but as twinmama said, small is good.  Small means I am less likely to put it back on. 

Good luck to everyone else!

ok im a little discouraged.  ive been doing well for weeks now and last week i lost 4 pounds in 1 week and this week ive lost 1/2 pound.  i have logged everything and have exercised faithfully.  maybe next week will be better.  anyway i was 256 and now im 255.5.

my turn, eh?

i've been REALLY good since the start of the new year (staying around 1200 calories & logging everything that goes into my mouth).  on january 1 i weighed 186.  today i'm at 177 ( -9 pounds total) woohoo!  i'm sure a lot of it is water weight, but i'll take it none-the-less!

one of my problems: i lose weight when i'm dedicated and motivated (once i go over 180).  my weight chart over the past 15 years looks like a yo-yo.  when am i gonna figure this out & KEEP IT OFF?

congrats to EVERYONE in this group - for losing, for sticking with it, for being honest.

reading a few posts, it sounds like the winter blahs for some.  remember: the days are starting to get longer and spring is right arond the corner.  keep on keepin' on!

nothing tastes as good as being healthy feels.

see you all next saturday!

I was looking so forward to this day!  Thanks so much xqueenofheartsx for setting this up and giving us an opportunity to look forward to "milestones amongst friends".

I started CC on Jan 5th, and my eat meter daily calorie goal according to assessment = 1050.  I weighed in at 157 and today I am 150. (-7 pounds total), I am happy...not to mention that 7 is my favourite number. 

I would also like to mention for the record that I have a great support system at home (my men...husband and two boys)..gave me my space every evening after dinner to walk my treadmill.

I like this first week's routine, and hope to expand my exercise activity to include weights this coming week.

Good luck to you dear "challengers", and all the best this week!

~Iam7~  - does that mean your deficit is 1050 or you're only eating 1050 cals?  I would encourage you to eat more.  I know it's exciting to lose 7 lbs in one week, but it's not really all that healthy to continue to do that.  Just my two cents. 

Congrats to everyone! 

~bluewater~ losing 4 lbs one week and then 1/2 lb the next is TOTALLY normal too.  When I have a big loss like that, I can pretty much bet on losing an incremental amount, or none at all.  It's just our body's way of staying in homeostasis - or maintaining a constant state.

I'm not sure if I can even type today! I started non-contact boxing this week and cannot feel my arms anymore. I've had a hard time logging my food this week, but I will make sure I log my weight ever week. That gives me the added incentive not to shove chips into my mouth! Started at 156lbs and went down to 154lbs. Happy with that. Hopefully the boxing will make me lean and toned. This pain better be worth something!

~twinmamma~ the 1050 is eat meter daily goal...but my actual calorie intake each day has been higher than that.  Deficit averaged ~ 300-500 daily.

 

 

I have been waiting all week for today!!  When i started calorie count on november 30th I was 192.  Then when we started the challange i was 189 and now i am 187!!!  Its only 2 pounds, but i cant remember a time in my life that i felt better!! 

so, i'm so sad, hahah. the weigh-in completelyyyy slipped my mind (my personal weigh ins are sunday - so i just forgot!) and i ate breakfast.

so here's my weight, with a decent sized breakfast in my tummy - lol.

starting: 157

1/12: 156.3 -- 0.7 weight loss... ah. not even a pound. i guess it would have been without the breakfast... but... boooo, hahah. i'm writing it on my calander so i don't forget next saturday.

ok I guess it's my turn.  I started cc on 1/3 at 254 and am down to 248.4 so that is 5.6 lbs.  I am very happy with that.  I have been logging every things I eat and trying to stay between 1300 - 1500 cals per day.  Last night I had a few drinks with some friends, I thought about the weigh in and I didn't eat anything so as to stay within my range. It really made me stay accountable knowing I would have to hop on here and put in my weight.

Everyone is doing such a great job!

 

Morning All,

I have been logging all my food and am eating much better and feeling better too.

last week 133

Today 133.. hmmm

Ah well better luck next week.. :) at least it did not go up.  

I'm 209 today!  That's 5 lbs. since last Sat, and 16 lbs. since I started on the 2nd!  I have never eaten so much in my life!  I feel full all the time, thanks to snacks of veggies and fruit between and during every meal :)  Watching my sedentary burn number drop is just as rewarding as the numbers on the scale.

Its the 12th is this the right place to post for the challenge?I don't see that anybody has checked in?

browneyes  LOL  we are still checking in...  go for it!  i hope i can lose more next week, but i guess 2 pounds is good.  as long as i make my 1st goal of 164 by the 24th i'll be happy!  and then i'll work on my next goal of 144 by 3/30!!!

actually, that's my next bigger goal...  even one pound at a time is my goal  :D  i guess once i hit 164, i'll be drooling over hitting the 150's and by then i'll be in size 9 jeans too.  i do fit in them now, i just don't own any.  these size 10 & 11's i gotta keep yanking up

AHHHH. I didn't see the posts because I didn't refresh my browser. LOL

I started at 174, and today I'm 171! Hooray for a 3 lb loss! :)
