192.2, going in the right direction now....:)
128.6 Susan, have a great trip! And GLC1968 Happy birthday!!
Wrong way... 148.
Thanks for the birthday wishes, all!
Susan - we have no plans, really. I did take the day off work (since everyone here is forced to take 10 days of PTO in the first quarter anyway), so I'll at least get to sleep in. :) I'm thinking that it would be a good day to finally get my Oregon DL, actually.
That cake recipe sounds delicious! I might just send it to my husband as a suggestion for next Tuesday. Contrary to his own belief, he's a good cook!
Today's weight: 168.5 Moving in the right direction again! :D
Back down to 151, now it is time to keep it going down.
152.5 lbs.
I feel I live a new life since I read all the Triske posts! I uped my protein, decreased carbs and I am a new person! I have sooo much energy, I am not hungry and I finally can eat what I always felt was right for me. No more sugar which I just cannot even taste and carbs which made me more tired than energetic.
I still did not do the test but I will. Thanks again.
118 lbs
...down, but only because I'm recovering from my crash last weekend, and got hit with nausea mid-week. :( Yes, I went to the doctor, who only reassured me that my brain wasn't bleeding or swelling to enormous proportions, even though the headaches and odd symptoms like all my food tasting bitter, and a seeming head cold without actually having a head cold oddities!! :mad:
So I've dropped weight. Won't be able to ride for at least a couple weeks, so I suppose if I can manage not to regain it, then slowly work back up in my training, it may not be a terrible thing. Sigh.
I'm at 171.0 today. Baby steps, but they are forward!
Martinkap, I'm glad you are feeling better with the change in nutrition! Great job.
GLC HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Hope all goes better for you, Deedocle!

Back down to 189! I expect another blip before I stay in the 180s.
181
and still not able to exercise because of this bad back. Have cut calories even further so that I can break out of the 180s one of these days.
149.5 !!!!!!!!
This is the first time that I can remember being under 150. I was even overweight through high school so it was probably 8th/9th grade that I was this "small". I really think that watching the carbs a bit and uping my protein really helped. I'm going to go crazy and think OMG NO CARBS since I know my body needs them, but this is progress that I really want to maintain. It feels good. :D
Excellent week for many folks! I lost a couple but could be due to some stomach issues. But I have my new fridge and I just stocked it with veggies and healthy stuff. So I'm hoping that this week I can start getting back to eating well and working out. It is gorgeous out today, but I'm still not 100% so I may take one more day of lounging around. To be warmer even tomorrow, so I'm hoping to go for a walk or a very light ride by then.

245 for me. Headed down, thank goodness, but not fast enough to lose ten more in three weeks. Not without some major changes, which I can probably do if I just get off my fanny and do them.
I had a trip the Urgent Care a couple of weeks ago which sidetracked me, again. My blood pressure went through the roof and subsequent blood tests showed my kidneys have begun to break down, most likely due to high blood pressure going untreated for a year or so. Several medication changes later, I'm back to feeling close to normal. I was on doctor-ordered exercise restriction and still am - I'm not supposed to get my hr over 150, not until we know this new medication will work. I've got a follow-up with her next week. We'll see.
Meanwhile, I'm limited to walking and slow rides. Alas.

Oh, that was wild. After I posted a moment ago, I clicked on the link above for the spreadsheet so I could see how everyone else was doing, and just as I was thinking I wish I could update my numbers, I saw the 245 added in....and yes, I'll admit that it took me a few seconds to realize that I was watching Possegal update my numbers and that it wasn't the next generation of telepathic Google technology. Ha!
Thank you, Possegal, for being right on top of tracking all of us! I hope you feel better soon!
Roxy
channlluv, you and I have a bit of the same situation. I need to lose ten pounds in 3 weeks, but for me it will be next to impossible because I hurt my back and can't exercise. It's the pits! Also went to Urgent Care and am taking Motrin. I'm trying to cut back on calories but am really possessed when the evenings arrive; can't seem to squash my nightly cravings for sweets.
Good luck in normalizing your BP!
Thanks, Possegal, for the chart update.
