Weigh-in Week of April 1

[kelownagirl]

Well I sort of made my goal of 121 for March 30 (121.2) I figure that's close enough. I was actually down to 120 before the wedding but content to be here for now. My goal for April 30 is 119. Hopefully I'll lose an extra pound because I'll be biking tons.

Welcome to Deedolce and the others who have joined this thread. Keep at it ladies whether you're trying to lose 10 lbs or 100 lbs!

Hi all:
Missed last weeks weigh in- hmm that seems to have been a mistake because I was up again 2 lbs! The major difference was the lack of exercise- my body loves 141 without exercise 139 with exercise- guess the writing is on the wall.... good thing my brain likes exercise too!
BTW Did anyone see this months' Runner's world? interesting articles on nutrition... confirmed what I knew but didn't want to admit..
many people (myself included) overestimate the calories burned while running while at the same time underestimate calories consumed- they had lots of interesting examples.. was a good read.
hopefully will be back down the 2 lbs next week

Thanks!

Considering how little exercise I've been doing, this week's weigh in was quite successful.

131 pounds (down 1 pound since last week, 5.4 pounds since Jan 1, and close enough to the March objective of 130.7 for me).
Fat %age at 28.7% down from 28.8% last week and from 29.1% Jan 1.
Muscle mass down again, to 88.6 pounds. darn. Last week was 89.2 and Jan 1 was 90.2.
I'm still liking the metabolic age - 30 is still 9 years younger than I really am, so, yay!!

I'm crossing my fingers for good energy this week, and hope to actually do some real exercise.

Well done to all of you working on your goals.

Hugs & Butterflies,

I haven't posted a weigh-in in 2 weeks! This is partly because I haven't lost anything...and partly because due to my schedule, my normal weigh day's have been all messed up.

Anyway, I'm still sitting right at 153 and time is quickly running out. I'm trying to not stress about it, and just focus on what I can change in the next 5 weeks. My plan...very simple: Keep the food REAL and keep portions under control...and ramp up the activity.

I'll be almost doubling my bike time from this week going forward, and I'm going to work extra hard to eat smart and not use the extra activity as an excuse to eat crap.

I lost 3.5 pounds this week. A bit surprised. I was sick, so I barely got in any exercise, but also from being sick I didn't eat too much. Hopefully I can keep it off next week.

Crud. I've gone up 2 My own fault, if it's not nailed down I'm eating it. Add to this joy my cholesterol results are in. Not good.

Back on track, back on the horse, the cholestrol numbers really give me an incentive to do this. I do not want to end up on medication!

So I'm still 141. Nothing's changed. OK I guess since it was rest week last week and I still ate like a horse. I went between 140.8 and 142.2 this week, with the most frequent numbers showing being 141.

Hmmmmm. Wonder what will happen this week. I'm taking Bikingmom's suggestion and eating a bit more. I like eating more but nothing's changing yet.
