“Plateauded this week. Weight stayed stable all week, in the 204-203 range. Trend is still downwards, so all is good.”

x2, I seem to be stuck at 204, readjusting calorie intake for this week. I also did a long run (for me) yesterday and am a bit sore, so I might be a bit inflamed and retaining water.

In my discussed with myself last week I didn’t congratulate you. So, Congrats and Thank you for doing this.
After my mystery weight gain last week I am back on track.

Down to 170 lbs.

Hoping for a better week this week.

Last week 212 (I think)

Thanks

Darn it. Three weeks in a row at the same weight. I look leaner and my blue jeans are fitting a bit looser but the scales aren’t showing it. Oh well, we aren’t at the finishing line just yet.

I am back on track. I attended an awesome nutrition seminar, and I immediately started making changes to my diet.

This week: 131.4
Last week: 132.5
Goal: 125

I was away on a camping trip last week-so I had no computer access.
Current weight - 161 pounds
Target weight - 160 pounds

Last week - 163 pounds
Lost this week - 2 pounds

I can’t seem to dip below the 160 mark. Too many holidays and good food. I am hoping over the next 2 weeks to really pull it in!

I’m disgusted with myself - I was 205 this morning - actually up a pound from 7 weeks ago. I logged 10 hours of SBR (and a little lifting) last week, but completely blew it once again over the weekend. In addition to V-day which I knew would rain sweets down upon my house (and boy did it ever) I was unpleasantly surprised to come home from work last Fri and see my dining room stacked with boxes of Girl Scout cookies (in addition to the Thin Mints which were already in the freezer). Oy vei.

To add insult to injury, I was 197.5 on Friday morning and thinking I was heading for a break out week. This is just embarrassing. Since I clearly can’t help myself, I’m going to play the only card I have left – Ingrained Catholic guilt (thanks mom). Giving up sweets for Lent. 188 here I come.

12/29 - 201.3
1/5 - 197.9
1/12 - 195.6
1/19 - 196.8
1/26 - 195.2
2/2 - 194.5
2/9 - 190.4
2/16 - 188.7

Goal - 188

Goal is right around the corner!

Finally under 200, I was worried since we had a birthday celebration last ight anf the sushi was sooo good.

Current weight - 199 pounds
Target weight - 185 pounds
Initial weight - 210 pounds
Last week - 200 pounds
Lost this week - 1 pounds

Current weight - 223 pounds
Target weight - 205 pounds
Initial weight - 238 pounds
Last week - 225 pounds
Lost this week - 2 pounds

Start - 232
last week - 224
this week - 221
goal - 215

I was able to stay away from all of the sweets around here for valentines day somehow and I think it saved me.

Current weight - 140 pounds
Target weight - 132 pounds
Initial weight - 142 pounds
Last week - 140 pounds
Lost this week - 0 pounds
Pounds to go - 8

Hit all my workouts and calories everyday were right on target, yet no weight loss. Your guess is as good as mine.

Last week 197
This week 198

Same story with me, except I’m back up a pound. I’m leaner, but the muscle weight gain is countering the fat weight loss. Legs are bigger. Waist is smaller. All my pants have to be taken in. At a dance Friday, I had to get a ribbon from one of the decorations to tie two belt loops together. Still, when I look in the mirror, I see the pounds of fat that I want gone.

I guess I’ll hop in on this… even though it’s 7 weeks in. Never too late to focus on this, right?

I’ve been tracking my weight in the ST Training log here and there… so i’ve included that. Overall since last April (my last physical), I’ve lost 18 lbs.

Current weight: 192
Goal weight: 180 (by mid May - though I’ll take it whenever I get there)
