September/October weight loss challenge

**goldfinch** · 10-28-2011, 03:51 AM

Friday again and I am the early bird.

112 pounds

This is down 2.5, which is probably a blip. I worked with a personal trainer twice this week and she worked me hard. But I barely rode my bikes. Averaged 1369 calories a day, not close to low enough to burn off 2.5 pounds. But I have learned that weight loss is not entirely linear.

I fail. This week was one of those weeks that I just didn't care. I didn't log my food and didn't do any exercise.

Weight: 234.2.

Fail!

But never fear. I will pick myself back up and start fresh today. I'll log my food and NOT go out to eat, even though it's easy when hubby calls and wants to go to lunch. AND I will lace up my running shoes bright and early tomorrow morning and run 4 miles.

119.2. Maybe's it's time to admit that I might be this size for a while, and go buy a pair of pants that will stay up without a belt. Most of the stores that stock 0s are out of my price range, though...

157.8

Eh, up a pound, but I'm still at my goal so I'm content for now.

**maillotpois** · 10-28-2011, 08:08 AM

171.

Didn't make my goal, but 10 pounds in one month was probably over optimistic. I'm happy with the slow steady loss that I am seeing.

Sorry I'm lame and have not been on TE since Oct 12?? I'm at 183 did not meet my goal but I'm also not riding right now. The good news is I will meet my BMI for my health insurance this year so I get a discount and a rebate for last year. Thanx Posse for doing this I'm off to do some retail therapy with that rebate money

. Congrats to everyone who met their goal!

Hurray - I did not get to my goal but I am back to 117.6 this morning.

**ny biker** · 10-28-2011, 09:54 AM

144.4.

**Ambikes** · 10-28-2011, 10:08 AM

Oops...I haven't been around here recently either.

Either way, nothing new to report. I am still at 142 lbs, which is 2 lbs higher than my start weight

**channlluv** · 10-28-2011, 05:44 PM

233.4

MillieNZ finally moved to San Diego and she and I have been cycling twice this week and plan a ride next Tuesday, too, if any other TErs in San Diego want to join us at Lake Miramar, 10am.

Stayed at 148. I really had a lot of fatigue after racing last Sunday and did nothing active this week plus ate a little too much ice cream. I will call maintaining a win.

Don't think I will be 135 for my first mountain bike marathon on the 19th of November but hoping to drop a few more pounds.

**Catrin** · 10-29-2011, 12:38 PM

Back to 138...grumble, grumble, grumble...

**Possegal** · 10-30-2011, 02:17 PM

I'll put a post up later tonight for the next 2-month challenge. Still trying to figure out where September and October went.

Had an MRI on Friday and some tests scheduled for the 7th. Can't do much due to some lower back/leg thing going on. Hopefully will find out what this is, go to PT and get put back together.

That's my plan for now, at least. Of course when the doctor says - no working out, I hear - eat all kinds of junk food. Maybe I need to get my ears checked too.

**tprevost** · 10-30-2011, 06:45 PM

I was going to wait until the official last day... 164.8... Almost got there...

**ny biker** · 10-31-2011, 07:39 AM

I was 142.8 this morning. Taking into account water weight fluctuations, I was pretty much around 143 for the last week of October.
