TEAM SKINNY - June a marriage of weight and goal (June2010) (Page 2)

Sorry to hear about your crash!! Heal up, hope you're feeling better soon!!!

Hi all, I'd like to join the party. 

I was doing well all winter, then I guess I decided to bulk up for race season and put on 15# in 3 months.  Lost 5# last month and want to be down to 140# by the end of June.  I'll start with whatever the scale says tomorrow morning.

Looking forward to getting skinny with you!

Glad to hear the bike is Okay...That was a close one.

I always do Saph.

Hey guys, can I be in?  I'm always looking for another way to be informed and stay motivated.  Hopefully this thread will help!

Current weight: 214
End of month goal: 204

Been steadily losing weight for 8 weeks now and want to keep on the straight and narrow.  I had been doing awesome, but this long weekend killed me a bit.  I gained back 3 lbs that I had lost by eating out and drinking a grip of beer.  But I'm back on the wagon and looking to kill it this month. 

I would love to join too.  After having 4 kids in 45 months I have been working really hard to get my body back.  I am 144 and would love to end June in the 130s, even if that is 139.

GOOD IDEA.

I have a winter maintenance log in for the moment being winter here in australia. I look at it for the workout but really dont log my actuals. I think i change to the oly plan in August for the Noosa tri!

iv been trying to lose wieght for about 3 months ... i started at 164 and today im 158.5.... my goal wieght is 145ibs...

im also training formy first 70.3 in oct
can i join in?!!!

I'd like to jump in too.  I'm at 165.6 at would like to get down to 155 by the end of the month.  

I am evidently a dope and don't understand how to log the weight to get this PEACH thing going? Any help on that would be great.

At the top of the page you will see a block "Training Log"....click it.

Once that opens: Down the center of the page you will see:

Wed, Jun 2 2010 Training - Nutrition - Copy/Move/Delete Inspire me [0

Click on Training. There are different sections to post to and you are on your way. Also weight will give you a blue square some type of training even if it is pulling weeds will give you a peach.

Welcome to all the new Skinnies. You are logged in and ready to rumble.

My original goal for May 31st was 255. I changed it to 253.5.......weighed in this morning at 253! So both goals made.

However I have lost a bit of my workout mojo lately. I have been traveling and family is up from out of state. But I have stayed pretty strong on my diet. I did have some strawberry shortcake the past two days. But as far as desserts I could hvae went way worse. It was the first dessert I have had since mid feb.

6-2 = 253.0
6-9 =
6-17 =
6-24 =
6-31 =

Goal 244.0  which will be a 60lb weight loss since I began in mid feb. 

Ok I know I was whining a lot about no loss. Heck I weighed in on the weekend, ate like complete crap one day and felt horrible for it both physically and mentally, more physically then anything. I am wondering if eating that way triggered my metabolism again or something. Right after I went back into 1800 ish calories a day and lots of veg to keep me full.

I am on a lower carb menu plan for myself 125-185g of carbs a day.

anyways I was in shock yesterday and this morning.

May end = 248
Jun 2 = 246

Down two more pounds.  I can't wait to see myself under 240, I have not been there since college. Down 20 lbs from when I started now, my wife is down 11lbs. Very proud of her... still trying to convince her to come on here and use this site even though she is not into tri.

Thanks everyone for insperation and accountability. Feeling GREAT today.

Hello all, Happy June.  Saling, thanks for explaining the peach thing to me.  I record all my food and activities in Fitday and since it's working for me I'm not looking to change right now.  However, when I enter an activity in Fitday my pie chart gets a purple piece; so I'll take the purple challenge while you take the peach challange.

Emily, congrats on the engagement.  Best wishes to you both.

Heather, I'm so sorry to hear about your accident, I hope you are back on your feet soon.

on to my stats....

5/26 - 195.5
6/2 - 193.5

June Goal 186

I was 235 on February 2nd so I'm down 41.5 pounds now.  I love all my new energy.

 

Egads, over the weekend I put on 4 of the 5 pounds I lost during my mom's visit the weekend before! 

6/2/10: 149
goal:     140

I've got my work cut out for me now.

May - 30 295
June - 02 294
June - 09
June - 16
June - 23
June - 30

Its a start. After a long rainy weekend with the family and no workouts since last Thursday I'm very happy with -1 pound. Now 9 to go.

I think I would like to be in on this as well...still pretty new to BT and a bit bashful, but I guess you gotta start somewhere.

I've been working out and losing weight for a while now, down 65 lb to 204. Today's weight was 205.2, though, so perhaps I should start there. Goal for end of June is 195.

I, too, track my exercise elsewhere, though I think I'll explore the training log here as well to see if I will find it useful.

I weighted in today, as it is wednesday, and was 174.5, down from 176. Hopefully I can get myself into the mid 160s by the end of the month.

Took my first Masters class last night and my arms are ready to fall off my body. Thinking today I might just do a easy 2-3 mile jog to try and loosen up.

Ok so I'm here we went swimming last night and my leg was sore but at least I did something.

June 2nd- 179

Goal is 170 because I know I'm holding on to at least 4 pounds of water weight this week.

haha I just started swimming and had only two classes so far... my arms hurt  worse the second day after my first class... just a warning... it felt great but man they were stiff and sore...

It was great... I need to swim more....

Hello!  If there is ever a team I'd like to join it's Team Skinny!  A little background:  I turned 40 on May 10th.  Back on Jan. 1 I vowed to change my life and hit 40 feeling fabulous and I did.  I went from 168 to 132 (I'm 5'1") and I finally got into a size 6.  Since then I've been struggling a bit to find my mojo and keep it.  I haven't weighed myself for weeks but I know I'm up a bit as some of my new clothes are getting tiiiiight.  I think Team Skinny will be great for me to help with accountability as I head into summer.  I have trouble not being on a schedule and come Saturday morning, I am schedule free!  My first triathlon is August 21st--I am so looking forward to starting serious training!  The only other training I've done before is for half marathons and marathons so this will all be new.

I will face the scale tomorrow and weigh in a day late and get with the Wednesday weigh ins next week and learn as I go--I have a lot to figure out on this site as far as training logs, etc. Two more days of school and then I'm free as a bird!!!

209 this morning and I logged it in. Hoping for 203 by month's end.

Is there anything else we should be doing besides updating out training log with our weigh-ins and such? I'm still trying to figure out this whole Team Skinny thing out.
