Tuesday Accountability
So how'd we do this week ladies?
I started out last week strong by eating right & working out, but it kinda fizzled throughout the week. Overall, I'm down 2.4lbs since last Tuesday, so I'm pleased with that.
Re: Tuesday Accountability
Nice loss CD! I forgot to weigh myself yesterday (my normal weigh in day) but I am up .4 pounds this week. Considering I spent the weekend eating and drinking nothing but beer and junk I'm content with that. I'm just glad I didn't gain back everything I lost last week. The small gain hasn't messed with my motivation since I know exactly why I gained.
Great job, CD!
I had a crappy week. I did some walking while in Ohio, but also had lots of bagels, pizza, cookies, bread, etc. I can feel some weight gain in my theighs, so I need to start doing some leg workouts like squats and lunges in addition to walking. I also want to up my time on the treadmill this week to 60 min/night rather than 30-40 because I am feeling pudgy in non-baby related places.
I forgot to weigh myself last week to get a starting point, but I did weigh myself yesterday, so I'll start from there. My official goal is to lose 20lb. In theory I'd like to lose 25, but I think my body shape/tone has changed from the last time I was that weight, and I think 20lb will get me to a happy point.
I also have a cholesterol goal, bec the last time I gave blood it was 190! Soooo I need to get it back down... I'm shooting for 175 or lower by the next time I can give blood, late May.
Great Job, CD!!!
I did pretty good this week. I met all of my workout goals & I think eating went pretty well. DH & I did indulge ourselves Sunday morning at the Metro Diner, but since I had just burned almost 1100 calories on my run that morning I told myself it was mostly ok.
My big excercise goal for this week is that I have another 18 mile training run this weekend and I'd really love to do it in 3hrs or less.
I hadn't weighed myself in over a month so I'll use the weight I got Saturday morning as my starting point. The ideal goal is 7-8 lbs...but I'd be really happy with 5. For my body & current weight I think it's going to be a long annoying process.
Nice loss! I'm the same way. I lose pretty consistently if I stick to my points so it's hard to motivate myself to work out. Then if I work out but don't eat that well, I still lose weight. I can only imagine how much I'd lose if I did both consistently!
My Ovulation Chart
Nice! I honestly think that one of the positives of WW is that you're aware of how much you should be eating, so even if you're sort of aware of your points you can lose weight. Especially when you first start!
I agree. It definitely takes some adjustment but when I stick to it, I absolutely lose.
According to the scale at my doctor's office, I gained 4.2 pounds in 2 weeks. I am pretty sure someone had their foot on the back of the scale. In my defense, I was wearing shorts and a tank top when I weighed on 3/25 and I was wearing jeans and a tee shirt when I weighed on 4/8. Obv. the jeans weighed 4 pounds. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
I did go to the gym on Sunday and stretched and walked a little more than a mile and a half on the treadmill. It's something, right?
How is it that my BABY is going to be 3?

Not on WW, but this is one of the reasons I've been loosely tracking. Some days I track, some days I don't. But I'm always aware of how much I'm eating. I feel like when I track, I'm always hungry & less apt to stop eating when I'm full.
