Been a really rough week...stuck in bed with a horrific cold/flu bug that's kicked me down hard. Couldn't even think of exercising. Had no appetite at all. Just starting to feel better so went out for a short run and pulled a muscle in my calf. That's what I get for not stretching! Think I'll ease back into it for now. Today....178.6 Down 6.6 from 1/5/11
1/5/2011: 175
1/12/2011: 171.4
1/19/2011: 171.0
1/26/2011: 169.2 (Weight loss for the month 5.8 pounds!!!)
Yeah!! This means I met my goal for January of getting down to 170. So eating right AND working out really DOES work well together. Hmm, who would have thought that the two work so well together :-)
So since this is the last weigh in of the month, its time to make a new goal for February. Lets try another 5 pounds so the goal is 164 by the end of February.
Yikes, 216.6 this morning. Going the wrong way! I think some is water weight, so I am not too worried. My legs are super sore from a workout earlier this week.
Not much weight lost from last week to this - but I didn't work out hardly at all over the last couple weeks due to illness and work stress, so I'm just happy that I 'maintained' and didn't gain back.
Nice work everyone! the thing is just to stay on top of it and track it! If you keep tracking it, you will start losing it. Of course I say this on a day when I have no weigh in to report. 2 Weds in a row I have not gone to the pool. Will have to weigh in tomorrow......
Good job to everyone who lost! And good job to those of you who didn't but are not giving up and keeping a positive attitude, those weeks are the tough ones.
Ultimate goal weight 145
Starting weight: 165.5 Jan 12: 163.5 Jan 18: 163.5 Jan 26: 159.5
Finally in the 150s again (Just barely-but it counts ). This is right around were I was before the holidays. Hopefully I can keep it up.
166 on Jan 5th 166 on Jan 12th 162 on Jan 19th Good high volume training week + controled eating = less me 163.5 on Jan 26 High volume training but a little tired and a little less controled eating.
Whew, Got in a morning ride for the first time in a while. Trying to get my head straight about health and eating. Have to have the diet working, the workouts are just the extra icing on the fitness cake.
Is it too late to sign up, following info from my training log - when I set up the log my weight was 175 and it defaults back to that unless I make a change every day. I am in the habit of weighing myself every morning after "you know" and before breakfast. Would be happy with the mid 160's - but to be 159 on April 16th would give me a great advantage for my May 1st 70.s in St Croix (also toying with doing the Inaugural San Juan 70.3 on Mar 19th - entry closes Mon 31st Jan ) Weight log as follows,
Jan 1st 174# Jan 8th 175# oops Jan 15th 173# Jan 22nd 172#
Work schedule is horrible (60 hr/week), got a banged up rib that is bugging me and some family health issues that are not looking realy good right now. WoW! Enough of my 'pity party'.
Hope everyone is well and feeling motivated. Enjoy your weekend.
Today...178.2 Down from start of 185.2 Total loss 7 lbs Haven't been able to train at all for the past 2 weeks. Terrible respiratory cold/flu that won't go away! So I'm pleased that I'm still holding pretty steady and not gaining!
Down .5 pounds this morning from last Wednesday, slow and steady from here on out. Down a total of 8 pounds since starting. Shooting for another pound this week coming!

No weigh in for me today. Club is closed and we have a few feet of snow to dig out!

Definitely very happy with my results thus far, I have had my moments where I just HAD to have something that was no good for me. But I have people supporting me at home and at work who have helped me along the way :-) Yeah!!!!
