Team Skinny...Oct. 2011- The Pounds are "Falling" off! (Page 5)

@philipray

that is a nice downward trend. you working out hard or watching what you eat or both?

not a good weigh in for me

oct-19- 200lbs

but my own fault, did not make great food choices

on to another week and hopefully a better result next week

Oct 5 - 141.5

Oct 12 - 138.5

Oct 19 - 140

Oct 26 -

10/7-   236

10/12-   235.5

10-19-    235

Very slow progress, but progress just the same. Now if I can only get rid of this cold completely and have a little more time I can get back to some good long runs.

9/29/11: 229.2

10/6: 225.6

10/13: 223.6

10/20: 222.4

10:27:

10/5: 173.5
10/12: (vacay #1): 175.4
10/19: (vacay #2): didn't even weigh in, but feel extremely poofy.

10/20: coming crawling back...yet again...I can get the motivation, I just can't get it to stick.  Here I am, recommitting myself for the 3rd time this month.  I just saw pictures from the girl's cruise I was on last weekend.  If that's not enough for me to want to lose weight, nothing will be!

I hate setting date goals, but I'm thinking they might help me right now, so..

Thanksgiving: (5 weeks from today) 165...if I'm perfect on diet/exercise, this is do-able...maybe, aggressive, but possible

Christmas Eve (seeing MIL for the first time in 8 months - 4 weeks from Thanksgiving): 159...slightly less aggressive than my first goal, but will still take work.

2011-10-7     218

2011-10-14   215

2011-10-21   215........hmmm  seemed like a good week

2011-10-28

@ Chris M Very nice downward trend! Must be working at it much harder than I.

@ rbtrumpet      As long as you never quit trying to reach your goals you can never fail.

@ PhillipRay     5lbs this month is great, a little plateau is to be expected.

Oct 2   - 187.2

Oct 8   - 185.6

Oct 16 -184.2

Oct 23 -183.4

Oct 30 -

Goal 180.

9/29- 168

10/6- 164.8

10/12- ?? I totally missed a week

10/19- 164.2

10/26-

Mine if I join in.  I know it is late into Oct., but need motivation, reporting and accountability.  I am now back to Weightwatchers after reaching lifetime about a 1.5 yrs ago.  Managed to put on 23 or so lbs. while continuing to train and race Tris.  Would like to get down to 190 again or 185 for next season.

10/22/11 - 213 1bs. - Down 1.6 from previous week

Upcoming races:

1/2 Mary in January
1st Marathon in April 2011;  Eugene, OR Marathon -Tracktown USA.
Half-Iron Distance in August or Sept. of 2011
Planned Iron Distance Race in two Years

Welcome to the group!

10/5: 173.5
10/12: (vacay #1): 175.4
10/19: (vacay #2): didn't even weigh in, but felt extremely poofy.
10/26: 176.1 - at least I got back on the scale.

Baby steps...apparently jumping in and saying "I'm going to eat perfect and go to the gym like crazy like I used to" is not the best plan...so now it's baby steps.

Paleo: I've got the little to no dairy down (have a little in my coffee this AM), so now for grains.  I'm not gonna worry about anything else this week, just focus on reducing/eliminating my grains

Workout: last week I went once (first time in a month!), so this week's goal is...twice!

I think I can do that... :-D

not sure,

why the double post.

Atlantia,

 congrats on the downward trend. every little bit helps.

I am stuck at 188 it seems. I can not consistently get below and progress lower.

I do not think that I will make my goal this month as well.

10/7-   236

10/12-   235.5

10-19-    235

10/26-    235.5

I guess my eating wasn't very good this week? however I did manage to run the last 3 days and do some weights 2 days this week. Slowly getting back into a routine.

10/6: 225.6

10/13: 223.6

10/20: 222.4

10/27: 219.6

Quite happy.  I've even been able to drop one of my two BP medications with the weight loss.
