WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE - 7 Weeks-10#'s

[Veronica]

My cat eats whipped cream. She's really skinny. She's really old too, but she kept me awake half the night last night. We're putting in wood floors and she can't freely roam when the glue is drying. She was not a happy cat about the doors being closed.

No workout for me this AM. I'd like to just go back to bed.

This is where I get discouraged. I've been really strict for 3 days. No sweets, healthy eating, exercised every day. The scales say 154.5. Same as when I started. I think they are stuck.

Keep at Sandra! Rome wasn't built in a day. And neither were our thighs, bellies, butts, boobs, etc. Stick with it and change will come.

Okay - I guess I'll tell you...


I'm down two pounds from Monday. Of course Monday I weighed in heavy. So it's probably really only one.

Ok, I have a confession to make.

Yesterday I had a good breakfast but it was later than ususal. When lunch came around, I worked right through it because I wasn't hungry yet (I didn't even noticed I'd done it). At 1:25, a coworker asked about a meeting we had at 1:30 and I realized that I hadn't eaten yet. I grabbed my HUGE bag of raw veggies (yay, me!) and ate it during the meeting. Unfortunately, that meeting was only 30 minutes because of a big all-hands meeting that lasted the rest of the afternoon. By the time I got home at 6, I was ravenous. I'd also forgotten to take out something for dinner, so we went out for Mexican.

Can you guess what happened? Starving me + big bowl of chips and kick-butt salsa = too much food! I had a healthy dinner entree (no drippy cheese or cream sauce or anything)....but I ate too many chips and was STUFFED. Blech.

Overall, my calories were fine yesterday, but that is NOT the way to do it. I'm back on track today, but I'm bloated and puffy feeling. Ick.

Confession over. I'm going to work extra hard to not let this huge meal set me up for over-eating all weekend. I WILL post a loss on Monday. I WILL.

I haven't been posting but I've been checking in on this thread once or twice a day and it is really helping me stay motivated!!! I've had a couple of very good days after a week of slipping, not badly, but enough to stall the loss.

thanks guys!!!

Still keeping on. I've been very very active this week. Have friends coming over for the weekend, and since I haven't had anyone over in a long while, there was A LOT of cleaning to do. I'll be cleaning up until they arrive, probably. (having folks over is a great motivator--I've even rearranged furniture and everything.) We're going to make hypertufa planters for my front porch all day tomorrow.

I haven't been on the scale since about Tuesday--but I have been getting up at 4-4:30 every morning so I forget to weigh. (Body clock just waking me up, so I get up.)

Because of all the work I've been doing, I'm uber-sore. Today at fitness boot camp we did all weight/strength training and we were SUPPOSED to leave sore. Well, I was sore when I got there, so mission accomplished!

I've been keeping up with my food intake, so I expect all this work to pay off. I'm going to weigh on Monday.
