Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Hey everyone,

I'm still in the challenge, just trying not to weigh-in as much...will be posting weigh-ins and measurements alternately though. Have a great Sunday!

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Still hanging in at the same weight, but I plan on upping exercise dramatically this week--will see if that starts moving the weight out of here.

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

yippie there was a change finally. I weighed in at 155.6 this morning making me 6.6/12.

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

I have crashed and burned the past week, BUT I am back on this morning and I WILL SHOW RESULTS this week. Guess I have to stick around here if I want to succeed!

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

YES YOU DO!!!

this challenge is helping to keep me on serious track, otherwise i'd of stayed in that rut i'd been in for the last 2 months

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Another one gone. That makes 2/10 for me

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

I started exercising again today. I've been doing my abs per the ab challenge which is good but I need to get back to my daily elliptical!

I also tried brussel sprouts today (didn't like em when I was a kid) and I found out they were kind of tasty. Of course I didn't prep em myself (used some frozen ones in a butter sauce) but at 7 carbs for 1/2 package I found them very tasty. Hubby said they weren't firm enough for his taste.

What else... oh I don't know, I'm still struggling around losing my weight to the goal. 2 weeks til my cruise/belated honeymoon. Part of me just wants to induction my way down...part of me wants to cheat around these 5 lbs... and part of me, the smart part, knows that I gain back several pounds with any cheat day (even when the cheats are things like whole grain bread or jelly with my peanut butter) and that the only way to MAINTAIN at goal is to learn how to eat on premaintenance. It's just hard to be so close, and yet so far away...

Why does our society revolve around white sugar and flour and all the crap that is so anti-atkins??? And why don't people see how the carbs are affecting them??

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

UGH. Back on plan today...I got really lazy and pretty much bombed it. LOL

But I'm here, I'm staying, and I will get this. I always do this, hit 160 and lose myself...so I am getting control of this... I just hope this damn weight goes back down at fast as it went up! I went from 160.8 to 168.6! TOM also but STILL.

Here's to a new day....Juekjian, you are not alone today =]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

I had a GREAT Thanksgiving. I was cheat free and feel awesome. I lost 2 more pounds over the week. When I restarted this challenge on Nov. 7th I was at 184. However, I was at 176 when I first started. So not sure which weight to use. If it is the 1st...then it 4/15. But I would think I need to go with my restart weight. So I guess it would be 12/15. Not sure which one to go with. Probably the last start weight at 184. Let me know.

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Hi Everyone,

Just checking in. As of last night, I'm down to 281lbs. So that puts me at 20/26. Only 6 lbs to go for the challenge. Hopefully, everyone celebrating Thanksgiving had a wonderful holiday and congrats to everyone on their losses.

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

I'm still here, weight still fluctuating. I'm losing inches, but no pounds. I'm wondering if 170 might turn out to be my "GOAL" weight instead of 160, as I keep getting smaller but the scale is staying the same...

[*Emma*]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

No probs Julie, i remember you popping in which is why you werent on my list, thanks for keeping us updated!!

I think you look like a darn near goalie for sure, and i never think anyone should have a goal weight, more a goal size, have you had the tank thing done yet? I think you'll be surprised!

[julirama723]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

I haven't done the dunk tank test--nobody around here does it! I REALLY need to find a place that can give me an accurate body fat test.

[*Emma*]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Nobody around here does it either!

what about skinfold measurements? thats the next most accurate isnt it?

Thats what my doc wants me to get done, he says because of my build i'll never be on the charts, lol, its nice to be a freak!
