Re: 5 lb challenge - Friday
I did horrible, lets just leave it at that.
I'm not doing well at this at all.
Food - 1
Activity - 2
Motivation - 4
Yeah, I didn't track yesterday afternoon. Two pieces of pizza and then cereal before bed. Good news is I didn't like falling of the wagon. I weighed in yesterday at WW and it's been two weeks so I've lost 2lbs. Was anyone else at yesterdays lunch time meeting?
Current goal lost: 2 out of 5
Total weight lost: 2 out of ?
Food: 3 out of 5. I stayed within my points range for yesterday but I have been trying to not use any of my weekly points in an effort to lose more weight. Yesterday I dipped into 3 of my weekly points.
Activity: 0 out of 5. I took a day off yesterday since I had already worked out M, T, W. My body was tired and needed a night off. I plan on working out tonight and tomorrow, and then taking Sunday off.
Motivation: 4 out of 5. Still feeling on track!
I made up a batch of fly's chicken salad and it is YUMMY. I have been having that for lunches. 1/2 a cup of it is only 3 PTS (I modified the recipe slightly to be 1.5 c chicken, 3T greek yogurt and 1T lowfat mayo) and then the sandwich rolls I use (the flat kind) are only 1PT. I am going to be trying a few new WW and Cooking Light recipes this weekend so I'll update if I find anything that's good.
It's time for the weekend so I'm hoping I can stay on track!
Current goal lost: 5.5 out of 5 (I weighed myself this am although my weigh-in day is Sunday)
Total weight lost: 5.5 out of 40

Food - 2
Activity - 2
Motivation - Meh
Commentary - I'm still sitting at the same amount of weight loss but I feel like my clothes fit differently, so who knows. I usually weigh in at WW meetings but this week (Tues.) I weighed in at home. I'm going to a morning tomorrow morning, so I'll be curious to see what the scale says there. I'm taking the higher of the two numbers though! LOL
Current weight loss: 4.3/5
Total weight loss: 4.3/35

Wow! Congrats to all the ladies who are so close (or OVER - Balihai!!!)!
Angelaggie - don't give up -- even coming here to check in is a major step - you know you are at least maintaining a focus!
As for me...I was bad and didn't track yesterday. I got a fever yesterday evening, ate a bunch of stuff and then went to the dr. this morning and got diagnosed with tonsilities (at first i thought i might have mastitis, so i'm really glad that isn't the case).
Good luck for the weekend!

So, I've been wanting to lose a little bit of weight for a while and have been using school as an excuse forever. Well, I'll be finishing up on Monday, so no more excuses, not to mention some clothes I just bought a couple of months ago are getting a bit snug already
I signed up on sparkpeople today and am actually pretty excited.

I love this idea!
Food: 3 of 5. I'm trying to do better, but I bought a box of chocolate chocolate chunk cookies from Randall's for a playgroup on Tuesday and then no one came, so someone had to eat all those cookies and Leo isn't old enough to appreciated the nuances of double chocolate chunk and...well you get the picture.
Activity: 3 of 5. We took walks every day that it was not raining. Yesterday I attempted to go to the gym, but was unable to because the universe hates me. I'm going to go tonight though
Motivation: 4 of 5. I was paying for Weight Watchers Online but I've stopped. My motivation is down slightly, but I need to get back into it.
Current goal lost: 1 out of 5
Total weight lost: 37 out of 71
