Now that's what I'm talking about. That seems like a lot for one week but I have been doing extremely well the past week. Logging everything on MFP. I think one of my biggest hurdles is cutting down on the alcohol consumption. It's not just the alcohol but the food that would go along with it. If I want to get rid of these last 15lbs It's gotta go. Just need to decide where my priorities are.

I have decided to try and not to have a drink until my birthday (March 1st) which also happens to be the day of a 5 mile beer run. After that, nothing until after my first marathon (May 18th). We will see how it goes.

There are some new faces here. Is anyone else on MFP? Could always use more friends my name is jhall260 on there. Feel free to add me and let's shed these pounds together!

Also cutting out the fizzy drinks - I don't think I can cut them out 100% but going to limit them. I love my diet soda - but it's just no good for you either. This will be a challenge.

I just really, really want to get down to that <175 for the Marathon.

Not going to whoop and holler, because I have been here before. In fact, a few times.

Not going to whoop and holler, because I have been here before. In fact, a few times. Trying very hard to stay consistent with my meals. This weekend GF is coming and I fall pray to eating poorly. Not her fault, but I just like to eat when she is around. We have a plan for this weekend and she is on board. So hoping to stick with it and eat well. I changed gyms last month, and now I run to the gym. It is making a large impact, I feel. Also the new gym is closer and I am enjoying getting there more often.

First week is going ok, Looking forward to next week's weigh in.

Just had to come on and share some good news i'm down to 170.6 - yay! I've been really making an effort with my ibs tablets and things seem to have paid off. I've had nearly a week of feeling poorly and not being able to eat much (annoying) but i'm loving the differrence on the scale Just need to stick to sensible eating once i get better Good luck to other team skinny-ers!

Hey everyone! I'm back after a looooooong absence. I know its the middle of the month but I really need to support of the BT clan. I've gained about 30 lbs since I was here last. Dr said I need to lose 25 by my next appointment in May or else. I've started running again and a little strength training and will add swimming later. Current weight is 230. Goal for the month 225.

Should have been down from 183 to 181. Bummer, but I know it's partly due to some very bad eating this last weekend after I got some difficult news on Friday. I started my training program Monday though, and my eating has been great. Temptation seems to have disappeared, and I think the mental "switch" has flipped and my determination is back! Also, with the increase in training over the past 3 days, I'm hoping that some of the weight is due to the inevitable muscle damage and repair.

Looking forward to plowing forward with my new-found determination and weighing in next week!

Well, not the best week, but not bad either. Need to buckle down on the sweets and late night snacks!

But I would love to find some Girl Scout cookies... perhaps it's a blessing that I haven't seen a single girl scout this year!

After that big loss that week and a bad weekend for nutrition I am thrilled to have maintained. Back to eating well.
I've been doing great with no alcohol, normally I would have had a few drinks with the overeating I did this weekend. Didn't have a single one probably saved me 1,000 calories at least!

Been doing pretty good on the fizzy drinks too. I have not bought any to bring home or from the vending machine at work. I did have one when I went to Cousins for lunch one day and at a fish fry I went to Friday.




I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing lol. I have 6 boxes of girl scout cookies coming my way..... This will be the ultimate temptation challenge. Maybe I can just bring some into my lab, college students are always willing to eat free food!
