Weight-Loss Heroic Mode 90 Day Challenge! The Competitive Weight Loss RPG!

Weight-Loss
Now that that's all sorted out, PETOPIA, and I commented on four of them :)!
 
I confused! Do we just say PETOPIA?! If so.. PETOPIA! I thought I had to buy a pet with gold that I somehow earned through achievements :)
 
Hey again everyone, just a couple more clarifications:

- you do not need to track your achievements (unless you just want to) since I'm usually checking the boards everyday. In regards to [Symp Res]...you don't have to necessarily respond to a fellow challenger's diary but that's cool if you do :) we definitely should be supporting each other. The only things you really need to track yourself are [Wired and Fired Up] and your quests.

-In regards to the pets, Christen you did it right :D And, technically the pets won't be available to purchase until after this weigh in, since only a handful of people have gold right now.

-In re: [I Wanna Hold Your Hand]...You can do this ANYTIME before V-Day. You then tell me who you want to "hold hands" with for the V-Day weigh in. (First come, first serve) But the person you hold hands with can also choose to hold hands with someone else.

Example:
Christen holds hands with Anton
Anton holds hands with Anna

Result:
Christen shares 100% of Anton's EXP for the Week
Anton shares 100% of Anna's EXP for the Week

The [All You Need is Love] and [Caught In A Bad Romance] achievements work similarly.
Example:

Christen and Anton both end up in Tier One during the weigh in.
Anna ends up on the bottom tier.

Result:
Christen earns [All You Need is Love] achievement
Anton earns [Caught in A Bad Romance....] achievement.

I hope that's not too confusing. >_<

Here are the achievements so you dont have to flip back to page one:
[I Wanna Hold Your Hand]: wish three or more forum members a Happy Valentines day. You and whomever you choose will then share 100% of each others EXP gains for the week.
|
v
[All You Need is Love]: if you and whomever you held hands with both end up during the same tier for the V-Day weigh in, you are both granted a one pound advantage at the next weigh in and unlock the title < the Lovefool >
|
v
[Caught in A Bad Romance...]: you and your V-Day partner end up on opposite tiers during the V-Day weigh in.

Im eating a bowl of oatmeal and a banana, then off to the gym. Didnt do so hot last week so Im kicking my own ass this week as punishment, lol.

Previous Weight - 282.2 lbs
Current Weight - 284.4 lbs

So thats a 2.2 lb gain for last week. I am almost embarrased after an 8 lb loss the week before.
 
Smaller loss this week, but I didn't put as much effort in this week so I'm hardly surprised.

Previous weight: 190lbs
Today's weigh-in: 188.3
Loss: 1.7lbs

I'm both a little disappointed that I didn't lose more, but also quite relieved that I didn't put any back on after my mid-week shenanigans. I'll try not to lose my focus at all this week. Having a rest day today, as my legs are aching like mad after my weekend treadmill sessions, then gonna get straight back to it tomorrow.

Mr Love, keep at it mate and don't lose heart that you've had a bad time this week, I'm pretty sure you've got it in you to motivate yourself, I mean look how much you've lost already. Good luck!!!

Last week: 191.2
This week 190.4

Nearly a pound. Gotta kick my exercise game up. I've been slightly lazy :blush5:.
 
Mr. Love that can happen to any of us. It happen to me last weigh in, I had a gain.:svengo: But I posted it proud because I know I have been working hard to lose and to stay healthy.:hug2:

Davey you are doing good, don't be so hard on yourself. Its a heavy load for you with me holding your hand and all for V day.:beating: But I still have faith in you. You can do this man!!!!

What I found helpful for me when I jogged on the treadmill is to do stretches before and after I get on the treadmill. Same thing if you are running tract or just taking a country run. Its all about eating healthy and portion size to keep our weight down. Switch your exercises around. If your legs are hurting bad try switching to the S bike for a change. That helps a little, then go back to the treadmill when your legs are not hurting as bad. When I used to jog on the treadmill that is what I would do. Since I am holding your hand and all I thought I would give you a little pep talk, :beating: :rotflmao:
 
Davy, my son just told me it was best when running or jogging to run on the balls of your feet and not with your heels. He said running with your heels hitting the ground will strain the back of your knees. My son ran track in school and he enters local races each year. But you can check it out and make sure before you try this, but he said you should always stretch before & after a run. Running on the balls of your feet may slow you down a little until you learn, but would actually help you to lose more weight in the long run. Because you would be working different muscles. I sure hope your legs quits hurting you.
 
Last week: 154.0 lbs
This week: 151.8 lbs

Oh... and:
[x] I have completed [Truffles Must Die!] - I don't normally keep pork in my house anyway and I love salad so it was ok! :D
 
Hey AnnaGail, Cheers for the pep talk :hurray: and the advice regarding running. I tend to have a little warm up before running, and 10 mins stretching when I finish. I think the aches and tiredness, and just general need for a rest day came from doing 28 miles since friday :svengo:

Anyway, your posts have got me right back in the mood to get running again as soon as I wake up tomorrow :hurray:, so I'll be holding your hand all the way up to v-day, and maybe a little longer if you keep putting me in high spirits like you just have ;)

:hurray: for us........I will keep up the pep talks!!:seeya:
 
I'd like to hold hands with Lochmond since we are in the same place BMI wise.. I think it would be good to push each other since we have similar goals :)
 
Todays weight: 156
last week: 156
lost: none!

I'm a little disappointed, but not greatly. Last week I lost 8 lbs so i'm fine with staying here for one week to make up :) but hopefully I'll get a good weight next week! We'll see ;D

also,
[o] I have started [One For My Piggy]

I used to hate hate hate seafood, untl once when my friends took me to this all-you-can-eat-seafood place and now I can't get enough of it. I also bought a new Iron Man (rockon) water bottle that holds 32 oz, so this shouldnt be too hard! :D /veryexcited
 
[o] I have started [One For My Piggy] :puke:

I guess I will have to have my DH cut me a piece of plywood so I can lay it on my coffeetable and do my incline walk while doing L. Sansone's walk at home DVD:ack2:
 
hard week so far for all! but its ok :)

few announcements:

- Anthony is still out and wont be back until later tonight :( sorry!
- You weigh in HERE, not Hero's Enclave! I need to tell him to be more clear about it and fix that message!
 
Logged in 4 hrs worth of excersise today. An hour at the gym this morning and then 3 hrs worth of basketball tonight. Back to the gym tomorrow morning.

I was pretty proud of myself this morning. I can usually only run for a few minutes at a time on the treadmill but this morning I pushed myself to keep going and did 7 minutes at 6.5 mph. Im going to try and keep do that everyday this week and then next week shoot for 8-9 mins. Just keep adding a minute or so every week.
