Body Composition Challenge: Swimsuit Edition (Page 5)

Missed Monday's weigh in - Weighed in today at 157.8 - I have been trying to pay more attention to portion sizes. Seems to be helping this week.

I did have a little head start in the gym, so I wasn't going into it soft. The first few weeks of p90x did give me more definition though.

The spring in my step is back for soccer from plyos. Bouncing from one foot to the other is so much easier and it makes for quicker touches on the ball, and more accuracy because my form is good and strong.

I like the yoga, but have to admit, it's hard on the knees. Always has been, so I usually have to do the easier or modified version of a lot of moves. Speaking of knees, the plyos can do a number on them too. I have to be very careful. I can't go buck wild.

I'm happy with it so far!

Weigh in day and.....

the scale is broken. Anything you put on it weighs 150. Me, my husband, my cat.

So, I get a reprieve until I go buy a new one.

You might want to lower the cat's food ration.  Or start taking it with you on runs.

weigh in today..... 198.5 (down 1.5 from last week).  Making progress.  Maybe I can make a deal with myself to get a nice tri bike if I get down to 185-190...  got ~700 saved up for one right now... maybe losing that much will take long enough for me to save up enough to get something good (well, something more suited for tri's than the cross bike that I use now [with cross tires... extra resistance training???]).

Best of luck to everyone else in your weigh-ins.

I'm up a few ounces this week to 137. EEP! Not horrible, but I don't like gains. ARRGH.

Nice job, Tom on the 1.5! Woo hoo!

I was up on Friday, up MORE today .... partly bad food choices, partly hormones. 

Resetting again ... going to be hard with the PMS which makes me crave all SORTS of food, but going to do it anyway.  I'm kind of sick of the see-sawing I've been doing.

Congrats to everyone who's doing so well!  I love to see it - it's a great kick in the butt for me!

can I borrow this scale?  

Well, we had First Communion for my little girl on Sunday - which meant party party party.  I've been a huge slacker this last week - failing to exercise and eating poorly - so - it's no wonder I am wayyy up on the scale.  HM this Saturday - so - I'll be scaling back as the week goes on - and if I do it right, will be down 5 lbs or more by Sat.  (I wanted to be at 210 - but that is out of healthy reach)

I did ok last week.  Finally got back to swimming and feel like I am doing well for not having swam for quite awhile.  Same for running.  I missed my long bike.  I have plenty of excuses for why, but in the end, I didn't do it.  Hopefully this week I'll get it done!  Wearing my tri shorts inspires me to keep working out (if just for vanity reasons).

Best of luck to everyone this week!

Forgot to weigh in at the gym today   Had an awesome workout though

Next visit is Wednesday - will weigh in and post then.

I decided to skip the swim today as I can't see worth a **** without contacts and can't wear them yet.  (I despise glasses, forgot just how much until this!)

that means no weight today.....maybe Thursday.

When I want to feel better I pull out my measurements from the nine month point of my third pregnancy.  Yowser!!

Scale stayed the same this week - no loss - no gain.

No gain is okay.....hang in there!
