I think there is clear improvement!
Now I will post my weight....159.4. Not happy or sure why that is. I am going to see my nutritionist today, so I guess she can help me figure out where those 4 pounds came from. I am predicting that it is because of my period + a tapering week before the race + a recover week after the race. I hope it is water weight anyway....sure feels like a lot of water!!!
Thank you for letting me post my good with my bad. It helps me be a little less obsessive about the bad!
Good luck everyone!
179.5 today.
:cool:
Tucker Cat lost another ounce 15.19 for him.

145.2:) I feel like I'm not eating anything but as I am not doing anything other than walking, I guess that's OK. I see my neurologist in 2 weeks maybe then I can start some PT.
Wrong way, wrong way! :o 172
UGH - the flooding of my basement and subsequent damage and then reconstruction, has not been good for my eating or my working out. Have to get serious. And find my bike in the storage of crap that has been moved around in my basement. :)

Down a pound and a half! 146.2
Kacie - wow, great improvement! And you must be tall - you look much smaller than I would at 159 lbs. I think you look great!
I could not weigh today as I had to leave home before there was any daylight and I didn't want to wake my huband by turning on the light (our scale is in our bedroom). I'll weigh in tomorrow morning instead.
150 lbs.
<rant>
I met up with sport nutritionist the first time this week. Interesting insights - I am trying to follow her eating schedule now.
Thanks to all the education Triskie has done on here, I also had an OGTT test done and waiting for the results together with my thyriod TSH and free T3 and free T4 done. My Anti-TP are through the roof.
In midst of this, I am running/biking my FIRST duathlon on Sunday. The first .3 of mile of run/bike/run is up the hill (4% incline). It is going to be tough but I am looking forward to it.
I guess, what I am trying to say in this long rant is: I am participating in the 'Weight loss challenges' for more than a year and half. I lost 20 lbs, I became aware of what I eat and how it affects me. I learned that my 'hating' relationship with sugar and carbs is not just me trying to be weird but probably is a consequence of my real issues (again, thanks TRISKIE). You guys taught me so much about my Hashimoto disease, about nutrition and metabolic processes that I (for the first time in my life) feel in control of my body.
I am 38 years old and feel in the best shape in my life. 2 years ago I was 20 lbs more. 1 year ago I had an ovarian cancer surgery. In 2 days, I am running/biking my first duathlon. Even though I am going to finish below the 50% percentile, in my mind, I am already a winner.
THANK YOU ALL!

Change mine to 145 :) and that is before my day's exercise. I will take what I can get...
Lime--I totally love what a tough chick you look like in your after. You really look amazing!
G--I am pretty tall :p right at 5'8". That means that I can weigh more, but that no one notices if I loose weight! On the flip side of that, I have been at 155 for a month or so now, and I randomly went up to 159 in the past two weeks, but no one but me notices that either. It spreads out a little more.
Nice work with the nutritionist! I think that it helps so so much. I can't wait to see mine today so she can steer me in a better direction!
162.4 Whoo!
I was worried because I went up briefly this week, but it apparently was period related and now I'm back on track.
Kaci - You can definately see it! You and are I the same height, and you're at my current goal weight. You look great!
Scale went in the wrong direction this week - had too much wine and cheese this weekend! Also - finishing up my honours thesis is consuming my life.. I need to start making exercise a priority! The warm spring weather also left us, so I haven't been riding. (Clearly I have many excuses ;))
136. Hopefully things will improve in this coming week, and I won't need any excuses!
114.6 - I am on a little plateau here. I'm really hoping to see a drop again soon, since I was apparently holding onto water after doing a lot more miles during my spring break.
martinkap - good job!
141.4 - lost exactly 1 pound.
This Week I:
went to the gym twice
rode my bike to work every day
quit all sarbucks
revisited schwarzbein's principles
we'll see how it goes
I am at 154 today. Down 1# which I am happy for, lets hope it continues in that direction.
Kacie..Way to go, you look great. Keep it up:)
229.2
Back in the pool yesterday, and trying to be more mindful of my dietary choices.

Martinkap- great to hear you are doing well! Let me know how your OGTT turns out (you can PM me if you want).
Congrats to everyone! Since I have now been on maintenance for 3 years, I don't participate in these challenges. But I follow them because even to maintain a healthy weight takes thought and planning. I realized one thing that has helped me the most is my rule to never buy clothes cuz mine are feeling tight, but to just cut alcohol and snacks (especially after dinner snacking) until they are loose again.
167.0 I don't know why I can't lose weight. I suspect it is because I am eating too much:p, which is a lot less than I ate a year ago but adjustments must be made.
Please put me down for 144 - one more pound gone! :)
Up to 170.5 for pete's sake. Hopefully I'm just bloated - it can't be real weight. I certainly haven't eaten enough to be up 2 lbs since last friday, no way.
Sorry I'm late today. :)

183.6 this week.
143.8 (this was neekid - this plateau that my weight seems to be on is maddening!) Patience, I know, patience...
226.5 this morning. Only down 1 lb this week and that's shocking to me since I've eaten like crap this week. I will take it. Any loss is a good loss.
178.4
I better pick up my pace if I want to make my goal!
4 more weeks to lose 5.5 pounds.
I am not allowed to weigh in for the next couple of week (nutritionist's orders :p) You guys are doing great! Keep it up!!!!
Happily off the little plateau this month- 113.6 - getting closer and closer to my permanent goal of 110.
Hang in there Catrin- you might be starting to build some muscle now, too with all that riding you've been enjoying :)
Stay focused on your goal- aren't we all working on this to feel better - hope everyone has a good week.
Sharon
limewave - love the new avatar!
Drum roll please.....165.8. :D
Yes, you read that correctly. It's amazing the progress one can make when they stop kidding themselves about what they are putting into their mouth. :o
OMG! A week of vacation, then a week of avoiding the scale. Did the deed this morning and I'm DOWN 3.5 pounds! :eek: :D
Checking in at 178. Only eight more pounds till my summer goal. Good job to everyone else this week too. bikerHen
154 for me. Kind of a bad week for me, very busy at work with less time for exercise. Next week will be better.
Poor Tucker Cat - he's back up to 15.44.
Veronica
156........
134.5... Better than last week hah! The wonderful weather we're getting will mean lots of riding so this week should also be good.
230 even.
I've been off any kind of regular exercise for a month now. Injuries and a wicked sinus infection/ earache. I'm thinking about doing a time trial next week, though, just to get back in the game. I really need to try out those clipless pedals on the road, though. Ha!

147.8 :mad: I knew it was coming off too fast for me.
175 :mad: wrong way! Must have been the birthday cake ;)
142.4.
