I know exactly how you feel. I considered not reporting my weight this week because I gained too. So give yourself credit for being accountable and sticking to it. Sounds like you know exactly where you went wrong, so no doubt you will be right back on track this week.
Stay the course, looks like you've been doing great so far.


Thanks Jackie, I'm still so far away from my goal so I think I was letting myself getting discouraged - but I can't think that way.  I know I've come really far in the past 5 months and that is what I need to focus on.  I did eat properly today and I got in my exercise first thing this morning which is important in this ridiculous heat.  I absolutely abhor heat and humidity.  Good luck to you this week - BTW, you looked great in your before and after pictures - nice job.

neilcarter - 2010-06-22 8:36 PM I think i will be disappointed also Gus, England beating the aussies led me to drink a few on Saturday night (in celebration) and also damn free work drinks every friday, lol.



June 2 2010 211.6lbs
June 9 - 210.5lbs
June 16 - 210.1lbs 
June 23 - 214.9lbs
June 30 205lbs

that is almost 5lbs not sure that is all weight i did have a few more beers over the weekend but trained harder to make up for it... cant tell if is water. But shouldnt be 5lbs of weight gain.

going to be a lot more strict and would like to have some suggestions for meal plans

I am 6ft tall and train all days with 3 double trains from this week !


This is a bit more like reweighed today June 24 and 210.1lbs not weight on or off. Pretty pleased.

n.k - 2010-06-23 3:38 PM I had all peach last month but have a few non-peach this month as I am tapering for my first triathlon (Olympic distance) that is coming up this Sunday.  Its been hard for me not to workout, but I want to do well in my race, so I'm sticking to the plan. 

Anyways, keep at it everyone!

Here's my month thus far:

End of May: 214
June 2nd: 212
June 9th: 208
June 16th: 205
June 23rd: 202
June 30th:

My goal was 204, so I'm now hoping to be at an even 200 at the end of the month!


Great Job!!

Training is going really good, eating is work which is why the pounds are lingering longer than I would desire

Woo-hoo! 148 this morning! I FINALLY broke through the 150 barrier! The hotter weather helps me, I think -- I just don't feel like eating as much when it's as hot as it is now. I also think that since I'm getting closer to my ideal weight, the scale is probably probably going to be moving a little slower now - but I'll keep plugging away until I get there!

As embarrassing as this may be after almost a year since my last tri I have been lazy and weight is out of control at 240.  So Back to the gym to start training all over again.

Glad I came back to "Team Skinny." I GAINED 2 lbs! LOL Well if history is any indication I shuld have another move down soon. It seems I always shoot up a few pounds before a move down. Don't ask me why.

You're rockin it Heather -- nice job!!!

eta: lots of peeps are losing weight -- congrats!!

Me, however, not.  Sunday's ride: 80 miles, 3 mtn passes; yesterday's ride: 70 miles, same mtn pass twice; weight loss: 0#  Yell  How is that possible?  nm, rhetorical question.  I'll focus on weightloss after the Triple Bypass in 2 weeks, I s'pose.  May have to give up the Nutella, again.

Peachy is when your log turns the color peach.  For every time you enter a swim, bike, run, strength, & physical activity, your log on the calendar (upper left side of your log) turns the color peach.

Darn...I gained a couple pounds somewhere. I'm fluctuating a little this week...it's weird. I'm at 205. Two pounds to go to meet goal (again) for the month. I start with a personal trainer on Monday so I'm pumped!

I don't think I would be able to tell that since I am color blind.  Once I get back to real training, I will start to use the logs again.  Right now, I am swimming 3 days and running 3 days but no biking yet.  Still afraid to get on the bike with my back issues.  My dad is coming down though in a few weeks and has a new bike.  I may try to get back on so we can ride together.

Thanks I am losing but I was at 174 at the end of May before I crashed my bike so I actually only lost about 3-4 pounds this month not the 8 that is looks like.

LOL... I was just at Costco today staring longingly at the double pack of Nutella. When my daughters saw what I was staring at they said 'oh, can we get some?'. In my mind I could see myself sneaking spoonfuls of it daily. I told the girls there is just too much sugar in it & we kept on walkin'!

Good for you!! Its hard to pass up sometimes but if I have stuff like that in the house I will eat it and usually more then I should at any given time.

x2. I totally caved last week and let my kids get some Little Debbie snack cakes. Guess who ate half the box? I need to remind myself that I control 100% what food comes into my house. Good for you!

Yeah, passing that stuff up is hard, but better in the long run.  If it's in the house, it's dangerous-and the kids don't need the junk food either!  They're constantly amazed at their friend's pantries--licorice, chips, candy candy candy.  Our pantry...almonds, rice cakes, Cliff Bars, gels, and occassionally some Baked Lays!

Be amazed at your childrens attention span and their relative calmness with your pantry compared to the friends.

Hey all, I peeked at my weight on Friday because I was so bummed about the weight gain that I didn't think should be there.  Must have just been water weight because by Friday I was under where I had been the week before.  I'm on track to hit goal so I'm very excited.  I did kick it up a notch this week too.  Yesterday I ran/walked (mostly walked) 7 miles through the trails which have tons of hill, and I gardened for a long time too.  I got in some bike riding on Friday, not too far, but it felt good.

I have a question about flexibility for anyone who can help.  I've never been the most flexible person in the world but lately I seem to be tightening up even more.  I actually enjoy stretching after working out, but I assume I'm not doing it right because I've been feeling so stiff.  Any advice?  BTW, I was the only cheerleader in 8th grade who couldn't do a split - that still bugs me.  Is it too late to learn?  Are there some people who are incapable of doing a split?

Sorry to those of you that gained this week.    Water weight maybe?  Seems hard to believe we can actually gain when couch potatoes can maintain their weight! 

June 14:  147.0
June 21:  146.6
June 28:  145.6

I didn't work out much last week (bad sinus infection) so I cut back my intake a bit, which further proves that my body doesn't like to lose weight when I'm training.  I guess my plan for the off-season is to diet down to <135 so that I can afford to gain a few lbs training since it seems nearly impossible to lose weight at the same time.
