Welcome to the week 6 weigh-in for the 2009 Slowtwitch weight loss challenge. We had a tough weigh-in last week, we lost a lot of participants, but did not lose a lot of weight. Hopefully this week’s progress will be a little more advanced without superbowl in the mix.
Put your results/stats here. If you are just joining us - put your initial weight (current), and your goal weight on the 1st day of spring. If you are rejoining us, do the same please, plus your current weight. You may weigh in today and tuesday, results will be tallied and posted on Wednesday. Here’s a link to last week’s spreadsheet; http://spreadsheets.google.com/...jV7z8VO4Rg&hl=en
Me:
Current weight - 132 pounds
Target weight - 133 pounds (WOOHOO I made it!)
Initial weight - 143 pounds
Last week - 135.5 pounds
Lost this week - 3.5 pounds
I’m done but will of course still keep track of everyone’s results.
I’m not sure WHF happened. I thought I was doing pretty good although my weight bounced all over the place during the week.
This morning I weighed in at 174. A 3 lb gain.
Damn, I hate when that happens.
I’m hoping for a better week next week.
Great job on reaching your goal schwingding! Here are my numbers.
Started - 232
Last week - 226
This week - 224
Goal - 215
I wasn’t able to exercise thursday thru sunday because I felt like crap, but I also didn’t really feel like eating either, so I guess it all worked out in the end.
Big week! I started biking to work the last two weeks of January and that is starting to pay off. I also finally had a week where there wasn’t something going on like my brother being in town, super bowl, etc…
Out of curiosity, how is everyone weighing? I suppose it doesn’t matter, so long as one is consistent. I was 195 when I awoke. I was 197 after breakfast. I was 195 again after working out. For this challenge, I’ve been emailing my highest Monday morning weight.
Starting 200lbs.
Last week 198lbs.
This week 197lbs.
Goal 190lbs.

Hmm. I get out of bed, strip down to nothing if I wasn’t already there, pee, then jump on the scale. I weigh myself in no other manner and at no other time of day.
One thing I’m noticing, is that the last time I was at this weight I was much more “ripped” than I am now, more veins and muscle striations showing. I was training about the same, maybe a little more. I’m wondering if I’ve lost more muscle than last time and still have body fat, but my body fat tester is showing me as around 8%. Or, perhaps my memory is faulty.
