140.4 for me. I must be on the every other week weight loss plan! Hopefully results will come next week!
Im coming in at a considerably less bloated 170 today :]
Holding pretty much steady for me again this week... 124#.
Well, I guess it's better than gaining:o.
151.5 ... I still hope to break into 140th...
down to 119 from 121 last week. recovering from knee injury and crash so i'm glad I was able to lose 2.
139.5
Hooray! I'll take it, but I'm not doing the happy dance until I get to 139 even. I really, really want to stay in the 130's.
65.3kg's
138lbs.. Not sure if its the same or more, but thereabouts. Work had gotten even madder, have had to forgo rides to make time for work. sigh... few more weeks and I get my long awaited vacation...
I am out of this challenege for now- unmotivated, uninterested, and will try again later.
Good luck everyone!
Weighed in Friday (10/3) at 222, which is good because the week before I was at 224, which I didn't report because I am too busy working. :eek:
187 for me.
I just wish I could get out and ride my bike. Please foot fairies. Fix my foot? Please?
I'm the same..... again...
:eek:
Uh oh. A week of exercise and what do I get -- 2 lb gain!
At 170.4 today. OM gosh! Enough already. The diet must begin I guess! I was hoping getting more cardio in would do it. Sad day.
Okay, I haven't really been part of the challenge, but since June I've lost 14 pounds. :p I weigh less now than I did when I got married at 19.
Veronica
Wow, Veronica! Great job. Oh... to weigh what I did when I got married is my ultimate goal -- it wasn't that great of a weight, but it's a lot less than now!
CONGRATULATIONS on your hard work.
Jes
Yay Veronica! That's great, congratulations.
I hope the TE weightloss thread will still be around in May when I need to start losing the baby weight.
I've got to stop saying I'll get serious and DO IT. 178.2 Of course I'm leaving for Paris in a few hours so maybe not this week. ;)

Hey guys! Sorry that I've been MIA - I've just been soooo busy. I barely have time to breathe these days. :(
five one - thanks for the kind words about the blog (which has also been neglected lately!)
Here is the latest chart:

Some of you are doing a REALLY good job. I'm amazed at how consistent some of you are! Keep it up!! :D
Yeah, I've noticed the blog hasn't had as many updates lately. What's up with that? ;) I love the apple peeler too. We got ours years ago at LL Bean - makes pies so much easier. Maybe I shouldn't talk about pie in this thread....
I think everyone who wants to eat organic should move in with you. :)
Veronica
We've got three rooms that could be converted to bedrooms (one of them is already set), but any one moving in is expected to WORK! ;)Quote:

Pardon this interruption...
Thanks, Veronica, for mentioning the apple peeler. GLC, I've been following your blog, or at least I THOUGHT I had been. I check in regularly, and I kept thinking, she must be really busy because this thing is NEVER updated! I want to know about the goats! Come to figure out after Veronica hinted about updates that I had not seen that my bookmark was to the Task Complete post--from JUNE--yeah, I'm not the brightest match in the box. So I have alot of catching up to do.
back to your regular programming...
Hey,
Sorry I missed weigh in last week...just a bad week and I think I just ignored the scale.
I forgot to weigh this AM as I will be out of town starting tonight and will miss Friday weigh.
Hey maybe I'll weigh in on Monday after a weekend of eating and drinking and just see how bad I really was.
Hopefully I'll make the weigh in for the last week.
Starting Monday (yes, Monday--post weekend of family parties and all that stuff) I plan to tape my wine refrigerator door closed...maybe w/ that yellow police tape..."Don't Cross this Line"; get more sleep rest (last month of 1/2 marathon training) and eat BETTER. If I eat balanced I won't have to worry about carbs and w/ the running I NEED the carbs. Just good carbs...more lean protein and FRUIT! (And no candy corn!)
I'll report back and hopefully I can stick to what I say!
:D
151....sigh
Thanks a bunch for doing this!
Oops, missed last weeks weigh in. Not making too much progress, holding at 137.5 this week.
Down to 204- a half pound! I'll take it!
Congratulations!Quote:

I weighed last night, close enough right? 154.5
Hmmm.... After last Sunday's run I did nothing but some minor yard work so that is good enough for me. I seem to be losing slow and 149 is looking possible but not completely probable with only 3 weeks left. That is okay the ultimate goal is what I really care about. If it is slow then it will just annoy impatient me, I know it is healthier.
Keep riding, running, eating well and I will get there.
urgh again!
I'm at the same weight today, but last week on Sat until yesterday I was back down to 139. I'm wondering how much a Wednesday evening swim for an hour and a Thursday morning hour spin class would affect this. Am I retaining water, are my muscles just repairing?
Sigh. I guess I need to start counting calories.
226 here. Seems the more I bike, the more weight I gain:mad::mad: I'm drinking only water, and if I have a small snack when I get home, it's less than 200 calories. I'll assume it's muscle, but it's frustrating!

A little self horn tooting: I'm wearing low rise jeans today and my honey informed me that I have no muffin top. :p

I missed last week's weigh-in because of some work insanity (so it slipped my mind). I weighed on Monday and noticed that with all of my travel and grabbing food at restaurants, I was holding water like a freak (I had bloated up to about 237). The water is starting to come off finally.
This morning: 231.
Still up from my last weigh-in, but I know it's just water. It should make an exit by the end of the weekend.
Oh, and re: weight loss and biking. I *gained* weight when I started biking. And then I injured myself and gained more weight. Unless I'm lifting (fairly heavy) weights, I don't lose. If I don't manage to get into the gym to lift 2-3 times a week, my weight (and measurements) stays the same, or starts to climb. Cardio alone just doesn't do it for me when it comes to controlling or losing weight.
139.4 for me this morning. If I can just keep going in this direction!
118.5 down half a pound. happy i didn't gain after 2 family celebrations and being on the mend.
151 lbs this morning... slowly but hopefully getting close to steady 149lbs. I did see 149 on two of this weeks mornings but did not keep it there. It is a slow process ...
Thanks for keeping up the chart,
Martina
141.4 - wrong direction again!! :mad:
I have finally moved to Colorado and getting settled in and so seems the cold weather too....Brrrrr
Really need to get myself under control, been spinning out for some time, and it's catching up with me-Big time! Stress certainly plays a factor in weight gain and when I combine that with eating to calm myself it caused me to go up a size in pants and cry (a lot). I have been searching for work, we just bought our first home in end of July, and still no find. My husband travels so I play single mom often. Meaning I have to be somewhat close and have bankers hours.
Stress.....I am now at 186 (@ 5'8" tall). Please include me?! Thanks!
184 lbs. - My first healthy short term goal is 164. Once obtained I will make new goal 154, and then long term goal is 145.
In the right direction, yet again! 169.5
Back up to 140. I needed to bulk up for a long ride this weekend? Trying harder starting tomorrow!
