  • Re: No Tricks, Only Treats Challenge: Look BOO-tiful by Halloween!!!

    Congratulations Elsy, you are doing great. Good job on losing those two pounds and breaking the stall! Keep up the good work!

    Mitzi, you are doing awesome! And here you were worried about this challenge. You are tearing it up! You go girl!!! You have really poured it on, or is that poured it off? LOL

    Tomorrow is weigh in for me, so here is the routine.
    No beef today! For some reason, I feel heavier the day after I've had it.
    Calories will be a couple of hundred below normal today. Seems like I have been above all week, and this will help average it out some.
    Tonight is a light meal of leftover chicken salad and some cauliflower and I need to eat it early.
    Today, water, water, water, and more water. Tonight, bathroom, bathroom, and more bathroom!
    Go for a 1 hour 4 mile walk after dinner.
    Think thin thoughts before climbing into bed and put on my superhero underwear set! The one with the big "G" on the front. Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No it's GONNABSKINNY!!!
    In the morning, back to the bathroom.
    Then strip off the superhero underwear set (lol) as well as anything else that I have on and sneak up on the scale.
    With both eyes closed, placing both hands firmly on top of the bathroom countertop, I will then gently release my weight onto the scale first with the left foot on the scale, and then gently ease my right foot on. Then opening my left eye and then the right one. If I see the desired results I will then get off the scale and jump up and down for joy. If I don't get the desired result, then I say and repeat the morning ritual, because it just HAD to be a faulty reading! LOL

    Come on, I know most of you probably have some type of similar routine. OK, maybe without the superhero outfit! LOL

        Don, good luck tomorrow--amd yes, I'm sure we all have our weighing rituals down pat. I haven't thought of a superhero outfit, maybe that would help.

        Congrats to all who are doing so well. I think I'm up 5 pounds for the challenge because of the steroids, but I'm still cheering for you guys. Hoping it will all be gone and take friends for Thanksgiving and Christmas!

              I'm down another 2.5 pounds from my goal of 218. I don't know if you're still counting that?

              so I'd be 12.5/10 for the challenge as of today.

                          Thanks, Meena....I keep thinking what people have said about ab work outs...they either don't make a difference or they do. I'm thinking they do to a point....and then we have to keep our body guessing. I hope my body keeps guessing and lose the weight like you have! You, my friend, are melting away the pounds! WOo hooo!

                            lol--have you seen my muffin pics???? :::runs in horror!!::: (they're in my stats page) I won't be able to post new pics until well after the challenge because hubby is taking the digital camera on an overseas trip---so I'm going to post my updated one this Thursday or Friday, but even though I've been exercising--my abs are no where as good as yours. I'm keeping at it though. You've inspired me that it can be done!!
