Perfect Dark Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 20 pounds lost. I couldn't get to the gym today because of work. *sigh* Link to comment
redrose85 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I would like to lose 24 pounds...somewhere around there. I have been very on-again, off-again and I tend to burn myself out because I go through phases of being super motivated and energized...and wind up injuring myself. I've been working out steadily since May with no weight loss, but have definitely built more muscle and have toned up quite a bit. I was jogging daily, but I've since determined that it does me more harm than good. Now I am fast walking everyday and 2 days a week I lift weights in the gym. I'm planning on getting a tennis racket so I can use the practice wall as another form of cardio. I am now also tracking my food intake. Link to comment
g84 Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 So far, things have been a lot better compared to how they were before; i am feeling more of a difference - i hope i'm not just imagining it lol image removed Link to comment
DaBladeRoden Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Do I dare weigh myself? No, better not Link to comment
CallingAllAngels Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I am psyched....I lost 3 pounds over the weekend. How is that possible? 2 pounds away from my 10 pound goal....... Link to comment
redrose85 Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I'm seeing my doc on Weds to see if there is any advice he can give me. I also want accurate measurements and to be weighed so I can really keep track. Link to comment
Applewhite Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I am psyched....I lost 3 pounds over the weekend. How is that possible? 2 pounds away from my 10 pound goal....... Congrads! Keep drinking water too. Don't let it go. I always let myself go when I am really close to target. Link to comment
CallingAllAngels Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Congrads! Keep drinking water too. Don't let it go. I always let myself go when I am really close to target. Oh...I won't girl. I think most of my weight loss is due to stress though... Link to comment
Johnty Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Had to go to the Doctor today to get weighed. I knew i'd lost inches around my thighs and stomach, but stepping on to those scales I was petrified I hadn't lost pounds... Anyway, I lost 11kg, which is roughly 24 pounds. Link to comment

You just have to force your self to do it, if you don't go then you will never do it. Once you get there it's awesome and you will feel great after! Trust me; this is coming from some who used to be the epitome of lazy!!! Link to comment
NowandZen Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I walked 1.5 miles after work. It's a start. Link to comment
Perfect Dark Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I walked 1.5 miles after work. It's a start. Yay I am proud of you! ((hugs)) You're on the right path now. Link to comment
Johnty Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 good for you! that is quite an accomplishment! Thanks, it gave me the extra motivation to keep on. Nice to see about 3 inches off my waist and 2 or so inches off the thighs. Then the 7% drop in body fat, the increase on balance, stamina and strength. All round its great. Nice incentive to keep going. Obviously not every month will be like that as the first month of a good balanced diet and exercise plan is a shock to the body, and after a while the body will get used to it and will slow up. But still, 30-45 minutes hard cardio 7 days a week and a healthy diet...no weight training yet a strength increase... Link to comment

You shouldn't strive to be underweight, you should strive to be healthy. (plus, you'll look hot when you're healthy) Link to comment
