yeah exactly.... now people are starting to develop muscle which is awesome, but doesnt look so great in the numbers. AND your going to kill yourself if you dont cheat every once in a while.... OR you can pretend your allergic to bread like I am and waalaa problems solved ;o)

I also haven't managed to drag myself any farther than the distance from the couch to the bed! Let's cross our fingers for next week! Why couldn't it have been a stomach flu?

Oh no, I hope you feel better soon!

Whoa Sarah that is great....sorry you are sick though that really isnt fun!!

 

I didnt do so well again...lost but not even a whole pound. I am really going to focus this week on my food and go from there. I did 5 days at the gym last week again so I just need to watch my calories.

 

Keep up the good work ladies!!

Thank you, I just hope I can lose next week with a big weight loss this week.
5 days at the gym is awesome!! Hell of a lot more than I even thought of doing!

Ok so I'm not a biggest loser contestant. I complained about not losing weight well and my FI said "just poop more. That makes you lose weight." haha just wanted to share his oh so insightful tip.

I joined a gym (finally!) and have a workout partner from work. She's another weekend night RN so we've joined a class that meets Saturday mornings (we'll go after work) and Mon/Wed afternoons. It's a cardio weights class and absolutely kicked my butt last week. I've also gone to the gym 2 other days this week besides my classes, and will go to class before I go to work tonight. I'm officially working out now and it feels great. I was in such good shape before my wedding last year and I'm finally feeling like I could actually get back to that! lol Anyway, I'll update my weight later today, just thought I'd let you girls know what I've been up to...

You're doing great Sarah, I'm so proud of you for joining the gym and sticking to it! My goal this week is to find a class that I can take a couple times a week on top of my workouts at home. That way I will have something that I'm committed to.

Alyssa xoxox

I'm with you! I definetly thought my numbers on the scale would be going in the wrong direction today, but they didn't! I think it totally made my day and got me back on track! Good job on the pound!

Originally Posted by Yari Wow Sarah! You kicked butt! Congrats on the loss!!! I lost 1 pound, I am so bummed...but I know that it is better than nothing. I am working out hard and eating right, not sure what is going on. I am going to continue at it and won't give up. I really expected to lose a lot more, at least five pounds. Sigh. I do feel a lot better and have more energy, so that is good news.

Don't be bummed. You're working out and you're feeling more energized and I bet healthier, a pound is a pound, it's better than gaining. And if you keep up like you are, I bet one of these weeks you're all of a sudden going to see a huge loss, once your body just kicks in to all of the muscle you've been building, etc...

Are you following any type of eating plan? Oh, I think I remember you're following WW too, right? What I did my first week was I followed my points allowance exactly and didn't use any exercise points or any of my 35 weekly points. Obviously not every week can be like that, but I think if you try not to use the extra points unless you really need them, that might help you out.

Also, I follow the normal points plan, but one week when I did the core plan I lost 5 lbs. that week. I don't know which one you normally follow, but maybe you should mix it up a little. I was thinking of following core this week, to see if I could lose more.

I am no longer doing WW. I went to a nutritionist and he put me on a plan that requires me to eat six times a day...only chicken, steak or fish. I can have one starch in the morning and afternoon, but none at night.

 

This plan is a lot harder than WW, but I am determined to stick with it for at least two months. If at two months I don't see a significant drop, then I will switch back to WW.

Thats aweseom Yari, with a strict plan like that I am sure you will see results. That sounds like a great diet and very healthy... good luck, you can do it!
