Weight Loss Check-In

huzzahuzza

Good Morning Ladies!!!! It's flippin' cold here (-24 without the windchill) so let's heat it up with some steamy weight loss (okay that's a little far reaching but I wanted to bitch about the cold).  

How much did you lose this week? 

Any changes in your routine? 

What was this week's biggest hurdle? Did you figure out a way to overcome it? 

Last week we talked about our motivation for weight loss... Do you have anything that inspires you? 

Someone posted last week about doing a squat and abs challenge- I found this one via pinterest for a squat challenge for those that are interested (ironically the link is for a May challenge ) https://shrinkingjeans.net/2013/04/squatchallenge/

How much lost this week: 2

Changes in routine: starting to try a clean eating diet. No artificial or added sugars or preservatives. Not doing 100% because we need to do grocery shopping and get rid of bad food in our house.

Biggest hurdle: I got miserably sick so DH was in charge of food shopping

Overcoming: basically making him sit down today and we're meal planning for all next week.

Motivation: I have an adorable dress I want to wear for R's 1st birthday Memorial Day weekend.

How much did you lose this week?

.5 lb 

Any changes in your routine? 

I figured out that if I'm going to be successful, I have to get up at 5:00 and do it before work. It's a challenge for me but I'm more successful this way than I was trying to do it after school.  

What was this week's biggest hurdle? Did you figure out a way to overcome it? 

Visiting my family.  For years they lived far away and we only saw each other once a year so when we got together it was a big celebration and we ate as such. Now that they live closer, I need to get out of the mindset that it's a celebration every time I see them now because it's now like twice a month! I'll ruin all my progress that way!

I once did a vision board and that really helped but I took it down when I got pregnant and we moved rooms around.  I should probably re-do that.

I didn't get to participate in the original post bc I been so busy...but I  made it here.

How much did you lose this week? Negative I actually gained .8.  THANKS AF!

 

Any changes in your routine? Just following weight watchers...its been so cold and icy can't get out to walk.  

 

What was this week's biggest hurdle? Did you figure out a way to overcome it?  My biggest hurdle is I eat when I am bored.  With this snowy/icy weather I am always in the house being bored!! 

 

Last week we talked about our motivation for weight loss... Do you have anything that inspires you?  I lost 60 pounds on weight watchers before so I know it can be done...so thats kind of my motivation and my inspiration is my family.  I need to set an example and be healthy.

I didn't lose any this week, I came down with a horrible head cold so I only did Jillian Michaels 2 times this weeks hopefully the pain in my sinuses goes away soon so I can get back on track.

How much did you lose this week?
  haven't stepped on the scale this week
Any changes in your routine?
  I've done really well about cutting back on the sweets, just need to continue that

What was this week's biggest hurdle?
  went out for lunch with DH one time this week was tempted to get something very unhealthy
 Did you figure out a way to overcome it?
  opted for the salad bar.

Last week we talked about our motivation for weight loss... Do you have anything that inspires you? I have a closet full of clothes that don't fit and I would really like to get back into them, I really just need to get something out that I really want to wear and hang it so I can see it to remind myself that is what I want to wear again someday soon.

How much did you lose this week? I lost 2lbs which is great because I was supposed to slow my weightloss. (So hopefully nursing won't be affected) Edit I am still at Weight Watchers and I love it.

Any changes in your routine? I am slightly more active. We have left the house every day, even in the very cold. It isn't always for long but we go.

What was this week's biggest hurdle? Did you figure out a way to overcome it? My biggest hurdle was emotional eating this week. I am a big emotional eater and this was a rough week.

I kind of overcame it. I did not overeat but I did end up eating a few more treats than usual.

Last week we talked about our motivation for weight loss... Do you have anything that inspires you? Reading the stories of other people who have made positive life changes can inspire me sometimes. Losing weight makes me want to get more in shape.

I really like the marble idea, I am going to start that.

Did you figure out a way to overcome it? Snacking and not getting up to workout, it was just a BAD week for me. I eat when Im bored and we bgre pretty slow at work... Last week we talked about our motivation for weight loss... Do you have anything that inspires you? I follow a couple of blogs that inspire me. A few are moms who blog and are getting in shape so I feel like I can relate to them.
