I guess that is not too bad since it was Thanksgiving.

Interesting when you google your weight loss... so besides other people that lost 27.6 pounds here is what came up.

At least I am going down now.

Well it is good to see someone else winning the struggle to make this lifestyle change work... Read the whole thread.. Way to keep it up Rachael!! I fell off the face of the planet for awhile because I was struggling too, and weight went up. Your perseverence is a motivation to me!

okay... I am back... Tomorrow I am going to do 45 minutes on the treadmill. Need to get back on the wagon.

WAY COOL!!!! Awesome Job!!



You look great!! And again your achievements keep me motivated, that I too can compete in my first tri next season!!!

Well at least I did not gain, and I have been weight training so there could be body fat loss, that I am not tracking.



But Rachael what is your BF? And when in doubt blame the gain on water .

Only a half a pound. I think I know why, and I think I will be down next week. Okay how 'bout I KNOW I will be down next week. I am sick of playing around here at 216-219!!!!!

Good Job everyone.

I missed posting my weight here last week, but here are the stats for this week.



LW: 219

At least I am going in the right direction now.

I have found that if you plan meals it makes it easier to stay on track. (a secondary benefit is it tends to save money -- you go to the grocery store with a plan and don't buy any extra stuff you don't need)

We have a 25 Yard pool, not bad, but different than swimming in a meter pool. The place I used to go had a 25 meter pool.



Positive for today. Although I did not make it to the Gym today (watching swimming kept me up late, and actual swimming wore me out good) I did eat very well. Kept my calorie intake with in a reasonable range, and ate my fruits and veggies for the day.

oops did not make it to the gym this morning... I think I over did swimming and then staying up late watching it... I could not get out of bed in time to work out. But I will get there tomorrow, and do my weight training. This just means Saturday will be a combined day of cardio and weights.

Today I swam 1500 yards. Tomorrow is weight training.

(5 days of working out last week and moving toward a second week of 5 days.



I hope things settle down for you Glovia, and may you rock the AFC half marathon!!!

WTG Rachael!!! I was in the pool this morning and made 1500 yards!!!! 250 more and I will make a mile. (just need to be able to do it in 40-45 minutes -- that is my scheduled time in the morning) It felt great to push to make that 1500 yards.



Keep up the good work. I am still working toward my goal of completeing a Tri next year. I just have to schedule another 5K to keep myself pumped up.

Saturday I biked 8 miles.



Tomorrow I will swim, hopefully at least 1250 yards. That is what I have been averaging.

Me too!!! That was an AMAZING race!!! I was totally drawn in.



The Swimming would be the event I would like. Since I love spending time in the pool. In fact going tomorrow morning to put in my short 45 minutes. (I wish I had 3-4 hours to spend just swimming)

Good job everyone. I missed posting my disappointing gain, but I will be back next week.

Wow! some great losses posted... Unfortunately I am not looking at a loss tomorrow, but we shall see. Way to go everyone who has posted a loss so far.

Arg! that is moving slow. I always seem to get stuck around this point. Need to push forward!!!

LW:220

TW:217.2



Woo woo!!! Almost back to where I was before I ate too much on vacation.

Me too!!!!



I did exactly that this morning. I got up got clothes to go to the gym and then made up some excuses in my mind not to go. Well, that is that!! I am going to exercise this evening!!! Thanks for the positive message Dean. It is exactly what I needed to hear as well.

Tomorrow is cardio. Either riding my bike on the bike trail or at the gym if the weather does not cooperate.



Today was weight training.

(BTW -- tomorrow makes 5 days in a row of exercising )excited about meeting that goal

Thanks Ivie!!



Congrates everyone. Hopefully next week I will be back with a loss to post!!!

Okay -- I know I am going to be doing better next week... I have already made it to the gym 3 days in a row, so I am getting back on track, now I just need to get my eating habits back in line.(I have restarted tracking my food so I can see where I need to fix)

Today I ran on the treadmill 30 minutes 10 minute running segments.



Tomorrow is weight training.

WTG Cardio!!!! I too feel good today.(And it is not because I am doing great on the weight loss)-- but I have made it to the Gym 3 days in a row this week so far!!!!! I am on my way to a 5 workout week!!! I am back. (now I just need to get back on the wagon with my eating)-- one step at a time.

wtg Joanne!!! It is hard when the scale stops moving.. I have been having that issue as well. Clothes fit better, but scale has been teetering at the same place for the last few weeks. Just keep going!! We can do this!!!
