Hello all,

Well I went back to where I started. I am so excited. I started a good walk today and ended it by going up the stairs, instead of taking the elevator. I have been walking up the stiars, even when I want to take the elevator. I was tired and sweaty, but decided today I am going to finish this walk the right way and took the stairs up to my apartment, its three sets of stairs and goes up to the second floor ... its a bit building, so climbing to the second floor is a feat unto itself, especially after speed walking across town. .. I am so excited I killed two pounds off, now the next two for next weeks weigh in ..


How is everyone else doing so far?

Congrats on everyone who weighed in today, even if you gained. I posted my gain last week, because I decided I need to really look at the number and decide what I was going to do about it and it really woke me up. I really want a good loss for the Vday challenge and I want to lose another eight pounds by the fourteenth of February ... hoping more for ten pounds ..we will see... I am going strong now! yessa!!!

My week has gone really well. I've started keeping my food log again after letting it slip for a few weeks. And I've been cooking more this week. I really feel like I'm totally back on track now.

Good for you!! I am back on track as well! Isnt it excited to have new energy and thrive .. sorry .. lol over happy ...or can that happen ...

well congrats
I am starting to track what I eat on fitday.com ..seems to work .. I love entering my activites and seeing my calorie deficit ..the more I do .. the higher the deficit ...

ttylater

natalie jo

congrats .. :)
 
I just can't bring myself to track my calories that closely every day. I've run a few average days through fitday just to get an idea where I'm at. But when I'm actually conscious of trying to eat healthy it's not a problem. Where I run into problems is just completely falling off the wagon and eating a large pizza and washing it down with a 2 liter Coke.

Hiya .. dont get too down. I go through the same thing, but less.

it takes time to make a lifestyle change. It doesnt happen instantly ... you will lose .. keeping tracks of calories is probably a good way to go ... not like your life depended on it... but just seeing where your at ...


when I put my stuff into fitday last week I found I was eating over 3000 calories when I binged and under 1000 when I was starving .. and not feeling hungry means starving .. I now have scheduled eating and everything .. lifestyle changes are hard , but stick with all of us and the support you get on here and you will end up just fine ..
as long as you check where your at on calories sometimes .. should give you an idea about the deficit you need and what not ...

because before I had fitday .. I was gaining and I was out of control ..bless the site ...


and this site is great ..it kicks but .. Your awesome for writing when you gain ... I did the same thing ..
but guess what .. I lost anouther two pounds this week .. I am now 282 when I started at 284 ..went up to 286 and reported it, but I almost gave up and than wham .. I kept seeing it on there, and psyched myself up... I am going to go below my starting weight by the next following week and I already am ...

keep up the good work ... even checking into fitday sometimes is something ... Sometimes I forget to check into fitday.. like yesterday ... I wish I had checked in, but by the time I remember I was going to bed, and I didnt feel like remembering and going through it .. I just promised myself once I ate something in the morning I was going to write it down... weighed myself today and found a big surprise in weight loss on the scale ..

keep trecking hun
you can do this
we are all in it together

(big smiles) :):cheers2:
 
I want to congratulate everyone for their losses so far ..and say awesome .. to peeps who write down even when they gain. It takes a lot of courage to put down what you have gained ...

but rememeber you will lose it again, regardless if it goes back to your starting weight, or it ends up higher than your starting weight, keep with us all here, keep checking in and before you know it ..we will all be losing .. I have faith ..everyone has faith in each other ..we can do this .. keep it up everyone ..

happy trecking and I will check into the pages tomorrow to everyone that checks in tomorrow ...

ttylater everyone
always

Hey all,

I'm not going to weigh-in tomorrow as I know I'm carrying a lot of water weight at the mo and don't want to scare myself seeing that on the scales :willy_nilly:, I plan to weigh myself on Weds though so I will post my weight then and carry on properly from next Sunday...!

Good luck to everybody checking in in the morning! :D x
