Good Luck ladies!!!!

Is this the last week of the challenge?

 

Is it? :shok: Good grief I hope not... I'm only down like 3? 4? lbs and have more to go and NEED/LOVE the support :blush:

 

I agree!! That'd be so fast!! I'm not ready for it to be over! Lovin' it so much!

 

Not the last week. The last day is 2/27.

However, I think we should do this contest quarterly. 4 times a year!

 

:good:

 

I am of those crazy people who weighs in on Mondays . I am down 2.5 to 164.

 

Anna, crazy indeed! :laughing: But :yahoo: on the 2.5 loss. :woohoo: That is great!!

 

Anna, :woo: on the great weight loss!!!

 

Oh, I waited a whole day to post because I obviously did not have a good week. Gained a pound!

 

:hug: We'll let you "grieve" today over the lb but starting tomorrow you are going to rock even harder and let this mini hump fuel you! :girl_devil:

 

+.8

 

Down 2.4

Sorry D!!!

 

:hug: I'm sorry... it's hard gaining and especially when you are (probably?) doing great eating wise but can't exercise. :hug:

VERY nice Brigette! :Clap: :Clap:

 

THat's the thing! I don't even dip into the 49 extra points a week. What the heck would happen if I did that? :faint:

Thanks Ladies! :faint: I'm so bummed about this injury, it's getting me down but I figure if I am lighter, there will be less pressure on my spine!! :hug: Thanks for the hugs girls!

OH, and NO FREAKIN' SCHOOL is not helping me!

 

Diane- :hug: sorry about the .8...it's hard to see that when you are doing all the right things :hug:
Brigette- :woo: on being down 2.4!

I'm down .5 this week. I'll take it after having AF this past week!

 

No loss (but no gain either ) this week. Bummer. I have been going to gym or working at home daily... but out of the past 7 days I've eaten out 4 of them so I was actually prepared to see a weight gain of at least 2 lbs... so I'm okay with no change. :good:

:Clap: Oh yeah!! Half a lb is half a lb!! :good:

 

Definitely!! Some weeks No change = :good:!!

At least you're going in the right direction!! Way to go, Nancy!!

3.4 lbs this week!! Loving this pace :woohoo: ...if I can just keep it up for about 20 more weeks. :wacko:

 

:yahoo: Nice job woman!! And you definitely can keep up this pace... we'll make sure of it. :girl_devil: :laughing:

 

Liz, staying the same is always better then a gain!
Jennifer, congratulations on being down again :woohoo:

 

Great Job Jen!

Liz, I love that! Thinking you'll gain and then staying even! :woo:

 

hi there... i don't think i checked in the last week or two. i think i stayed the same and then gained a little, but this past week i lost 2.8 (it's a total of 10lbs since i started--woo hoo!), but i'd already lost like 8lbs when our bl competition started, so it's only like 2lbs. if that makes sense! i'll try to go look up where i was when we started.

 

:yahoo: JL!!!

 

WTF? Up **AGAIN** 2.4 pounds. I have no friggin clue. I am always always always under (but not by much) on my points for the week, I'm either walking or doing the wiifit daily. And I don't feel good (healthy) eating this much protein on a daily basis. I think I might not make it to the end of March before switching to the old points program.

 

Bex I don't see what it would hurt switching to the old points program if the new one is not working for you. Hang in there. I am in the same boat. I'm going to weigh this morning but I'm fairly certain I haven't lost in 3 weeks and I have NOT been cheating and I've been exercising. We started at the same time. Maybe our bodies are just adjusting?

 

I think when you first start exercising, it does take time for your body to get on board with weight loss. You build muscle, your body is thrown for a loop, etc. It'll catch up.

 

Good morning ladies/ Congrats to all the losers and every else PLEASE STAY MOTIVATED!!!! Drink more water and zig zag your calories!! If your walking to into interval walking. Cardio cardio cardio when you want to lose. Ive been using JM 30 day shred but I think Im going to switch over to Biggest Losers Cardio Max. Also invest i a pedometer and try to walk 10k step a day. WE CAN ALL DO THIS!!!!

Starting weight was 290
last week 271
this week 266 (down 5)

I lost the weight I gained a a couple more. I still can not seem to hit my mini goal of 25lbs. Had my goal set to be met by this Friday (tomorrow) and I have been yo-yoing. I get to 1 pound away and then I gain. Hopefully tomorrow is the day

 

I will weigh in tomorrow....but I don't think it's looking good. I haven't had the best eating week (have my period, so wasn't TOO bad though) and I've hit the gym fierce....I guess I will see tomorrow.

 

Bad news for me. I gained .4 this week. I've totally been sticking with the program too, there is absolutely no reason why I should have gained.

I asked the leader about it b/c I was thinking maybe I should drop a few of my extra nursing points. I don't know if this is common knowledge, but I didn't know it so I thought I'd share. The way they determine if you are at a weight loss plateau and need to do something different is they take your total losses for the past 4 weeks and divide it by 4. If that number is .2 or less than you're at a plateau and need to change something. If the number is even .4 then that is not considered a plateau and you should just keep on the way you are. So Bex, I think if you divide your last 4 weeks by 4 you'd still be greater than .2 and I am as well. The leader said that it's probably just my body adjusting.

 

I just did the math .175. /le sigh.

 

Nikki-:woo: for a loss!
Aimee and Bex- Sorry about the gains...it's so disheartening when you are doing everything right and the stupid scale goes up :grr: Aimee, I am glad you got the explanation from your leader, I never knew that.

 

Nikki!! Looks like the flush worked!!! Maybe jump started something?!! :woo:

Girls, I'm with you on the frustration. I'm hitting all my points and have gone over one day by like 3 (but there's 49 to play with) and didn't lose, and gained that .8, so I am frustrated right with you!!

I have been REALLY good this week. I will probably :cry: if I gain again or stay the same!!!

 

Diane I ended up not doing the flush I drank the protein drinks all day day one and mid afternoon on day 2 i was feeling sick from all the fruit. Also Im normally very regular (tmi sorry) and I was not able to go so the flush had the opposite effect on me and a few other people in our group who tried it. I would not recommend it. I thank Jillian Michale's for this loss. 30 day shred is amazing!

 

170.5 which means I am down 5.5lbs! WOOOOHOOOO!!!!!! I have been in the gym for the past 12 days straight! I am 5lbs away from my original goal but I may shoot for 155 instead
