Weigh-in Week of April 1

[mountainchick]

I'd like to join in on this thread....what do I need to do each 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.

Despite 230+ miles last week, Mother-in-law cooking did me in. I gained 3.5 pounds, but I'm back on track the last two days.

It sounds as though everyone is doing well, either losing, maintaining, or back on track.

After not much last week, this week did show a loss off my hips (yay), BF%, and scale weight. My capris are loose-which is great!

Now to eat the Easter candy in moderation. Oh I do so love chocolately carmel/marshmallowy goodness....

I lost TWO!

In the last 7 days I have spent 5-6 hours of most of them doing one or two very vigorous things. One day of hiking and camping, and the rest working in the garden. The gardening was the heavy duty kind, lots of sod-breaking and shoveling and lifting and transplanting, hauling bags of mulch and containers for the patio. NOT for the weak of heart. Those were all 3000 calories days!

Yesterday I had to put down our dog who was 20 years old, so two days I haven't felt much like eating. I'm sure that had something to do with it.

I don't think I'll meet the 10 before the Trip goal, but as long as I'm losing, I don't care. I don't want to have to buy new jeans before I go on my trip in two weeks, but it may be necessary!
