184.6 lbs
Up a tad, but still on the right track.
I'm down to 181.2! The scale is finally moving in the right direction.
Biking - 75.23 miles
Horseback riding - 1.5 hours
Sweating like a pig while working out/playing on the Wii Fit - 5 hours
Someone posted awhile back that the Wii Fit was fun but wasn't a lot of exercise, but I beg to differ. You can get one heck of a workout on it. It depends on what you put into it though. And you can add hand weights to take it up a notch.
I am down another -0.4 to 178.2, I’m glad I’m moving in the right direction 2 weeks in a row even without exercising. I pulled my hamstring muscle a week and a half ago and its taking a while to heal. I’ve decided to sit on my butt and wait it out rather than trying to exercise through the pain (I’ve reinjured this hamstring several times over the years). Hopefully I will show bigger losses once I can get back on the bike.
172.4. Up 1 pound :( I'm ready to give up.
Allrighty, back down a pound to 153. I may break the elusive 150 barrier yet. :p
Hang in there bambu!! :cool:
Slowly moving back down from my "rebound up" on week 2.
Watching what I eat and drink more closely. I dont' think I'll make my 5 pound weight loss goal. But I'll take any downward movement of scale.
119.0 today!!!:):):):):):):):)
Start: 181
Weigh in: 174
I made it out of the 180's, and I'm not going back! Maybe by the end of this I can say the same thing about the 170's!
160.5. The 150s are firmly within my grasp, if I can just not blow it.
:) 158lbs... I am thrilled!
Up to 131, and I guess that makes me realize: there are those who try to lose weight on this challenge, and those who don't - or should I say one who doesn't... me (don't want to offend anyone here :D ). The result is that I have not lost weight, but have been super stable -/+ 1lb, so I'm not going to complain. But if I want loss, then I have to do something about it. Maybe I'm just fine where I'm at....
118.8 - I'm lucky after all the garbage I ate in the last two days. :o
I ride about 100 miles a week....am eating few carbs, little fat and have quit drinking alcohol...I STILL can't lose. So frustrating.
I keep hearing I should be lifting weights...Anyone in their late 40s have this issue. I need to lose about 15 or 20 pounds and more importantly about 10 percent fat.
Help?
135.8 this morning.
I expected it to be a bit higher considering I was out of town last Fri - Mon (no exercise, eating in restaurants). I got in a couple weigh sessions this week, but getting up at 4:30 am to ride the trainer had no appeal (not that it ever does).This was also a really bad week at work, so I was more mentally tired than usual. Anyway, those are my excuses for slacking off.
Back to business as usual beginning today, but I think my body just likes the 134-136 range regardless of what I do or don't do with exercise and/or eating habits. Sigh...:(
I eat LOTS of fruit and veggies, only whole grain, some lean meat or alternative protein, low fat dairy and some good fats. Pretty well no processed food, only a little dark chocolate for dessert, red wine most days. Lots of exercise. It works for me. YOu can count calories at first to make sure you're not eating too much. Also, 6 small meals instead of 3 big ones.Quote:
