Sunday night.....just got off the gazelle.....that makes 5 days of exercise this week

Woo hoooo - end of January challenge!

... and here's how I did:


My challenge goals:
Goal weight: 195
Start weight: 203
2 week induction
Exercise Goals: 7x/wk, yoga, pilates, gym session, weight training, walking daily
100 oz water daily.

My challenge stats:

Week 1:
- didn't take part due to illness

Week 2:
- 7lbs loss
- 1st week of induction
- Exercise 7 of 7
- 7 of 100+ oz water

Week 3:
- 3lbs loss
- 2nd week of induction
- Exercise 10 of 7 - doubled up on several days
- 7 of 100+ oz water

Week 4:
- weight stayed the same
- Exercise 9 of 7 - doubled up on several days
- 7 of 100+ oz water


So, I lost 10lbs, which takes me to 193 and means that I made my weight goal, plus an extra 2lbs (a bit disappointed though that I didn't lose anything this week ).



... definitely include me in the next challenge This one has really helped to keep me on the straight and narrow

[QUOTE]Anyone want to join me for a February challenge??[/QUOTE]
Hey! I was hoping you'd say that! count me in!

Well, I managed to get the two pounds off that I'd gained and I think it was due to the fact, I finally started aerobic exercise/dancing in the evening as well as my morning toning/stretching.

I didn't lose 15 but I did incorporate some good habits for a change!

I have no problem drinking my water 80 to 96 oz. per day.

My birthday is March 5th so I really need this challenge!

I'm only doing a few things differently.

1. I will continue to do my morning toning/stretching daily, and aerobic/dancing 4x's weekly.

2. I will continue to not eat after 6.

3. I will weigh myself on Monday mornings.

4. On the weekend, I will allow myself to have one treat if I've been a good girl all week.

5. I will try and keep my carbs around 30 and calories around 1400.

Ok, it's 5 am here and I'm off to work.
Everyone have a great day and congrats to all who've reached their goals!

Well, I slacked this weekend and did nothing. I did manage to eat healthy though. I did do yoga this morning to end out my challenge on a good note. I still weight 172 and I'm very happy about my loss this month.

Up and down, up and down here

I was having a REALLY good week eating wise then comes my best friend with PIZZA, my favorite from Pizza hut and it was calling my name! Screwed me up royally for the weekend! I only cheated the one night but I am up 2lbs and am HATING myself for cracking!!!

Not so hot on the exercise either...in fact I did HORRIBLE this past week other than the eating and I still managed to gain 2 lbs and did even have a good time like Becki did!!!!

Ugggggg........

Me too -- me too. I tried to make sure I got an hour of exercise nearly every day on vacation -- and really DID NOT cheat (much!) -- a nibble of a hush puppy here, a few crackers there -- but I didn't lose anything in January. Back in the Saddle -- for real. Start me again: 178 this morning. UGH.

Leaving again for vacation on 2/17...

Started the new challenge, look forward to seeing you all there! Starts tomorrow, be there or be square!

Fabulous February Challenge!

Oh, can I add one more thing to my challenge? I will try to lose 10lbs. this month.

And my starting weight today is 230. Had went up to 232. I'm getting addicted to exercise, so that's a good thing!

did my exercises this morning. I ate a little heavily at dinner but I'm going to dance it off.

I wasn't able to get all my water in today either. (only did 48oz so far).
