Team Skinny Aug. 2012- Losing it before Summer fades away... (Page 2)

15/08 - 210.5lbs this week  1.7 down - had a boozy friday on a work function also! Damaged rib though is limiting training. 

Just finished my 2nd jog of the week, though I'd check in before heading out to work with my smoothie in hand!  Let's have a great day everyone. 

I weigh in on Mondays (to keep myself accountable for the weekend) so here is where I was on Monday.

(As of July 4th SW:243) LW:229 CW:226

214.0 and 23.5% this morning, good start, lot left to do....  (time to go ride)

I'm down a pound today - I think perhaps all the sodium has washed out of my system from travel & family events last week.

enders_shadow, must say I love your moniker. Been reading Orson Scott Card for many years!

Catching up/....  was on vacation 8/1, but stats are

7/27 left for vacation at 206

8/13 returned at 214

as of today, 210.4.

Another week, another loss!

Now  193

Ack!   I know it's not weigh in day, but I need focus!!!!   this morning was 216.4, backsliding.  Yesterday was a race, and I am much looser on race days, but I need to get this in check as I am afraid of going back to where I started...  235 last year, 270 a few years back...   just venting a little frustration, since I know this is the result of bad choices I've made.

My youngest is 13 months - I'm at 193 right now which is below my pre-preg weight but I have a long ways to go!  It's much better to do it with support - virtual or otherwise.  Welcome!

Wow, this is getting just scary, we mirror each other horribly.  I have been in the same boat again. Got down to within ounces of cracking 200 earlier this year and now am back in the mid 220's. Get in a good rut and then blow it all up again. In my head I know I can lose it easy with just solid training and discpline but the amount of time I have spent over 200 pounds vs when I was last under is getting longer and longer. NEED FOCUS!!!

You both sound really similar to my roller coaster ride over the last couple of years!!!  Read/calculated that my "ideal" weight would be about 193 but I have not seen that since the early 90's (but it is my new goal) and only spent a couple of dozen days below 200 this century.

OK, hopefully it was just the two salty meals I had Sat and Sund (MX and IT).  I've been pretty focused this week and am intent on making choices consistent with my goals.  Currently that means no soda at all.  just water.  That was one of the things I did when I first started losing

8/23:  209.8

Hi All,

Hope everyone had a good week.  I stayed on nutrition plan, ran 3X, and went on a 5 mile walk last Sat.  I weigh in on Mondays (to keep myself accountable for the weekend) so here is where I was on Monday.  (As of July 4th SW:243) LW:226 CW:224  Have a great weekend everyone!

Keep forgetting to post my weight, I think it's a subconscious thing since I am pretty much maintaining.

217.5 on 8-22 my first and probably my only race this year is Sunday an Oly. Excited, but then an after race party will probably blow things up. Sad, but I am looking forward to winter, my work schedule slows down and I can work out more consistently!
