October weight loss challenge...


Jenn

Recommended Posts

Yesterday was very hard - but I was good. I stuck to my calorie range and didn't have any diet coke (even though I really wanted it.) I've actually been good all week. But then this morning, I got on the scale and it's NOT MOVING AT ALL!!!! What's the problemhuh.gif

 

My new treadmill came yesterday and Brendan set it up last night. It looks good, but I didn't get home until very late last night so I haven't had a chance to use it yet. I'm not going to get home until very late tonight as well. So I probably won't be able to use it until tomorrow morning. After I use it, I'll let you know then what I think of it.

Okay ladies... if I can get off the crack, you can too. Hello, my name is Jenn, and I am a Diet Coke addict. That being said, I've been clean for 10 days.

 

Jen - the scale will start moving. Have faith and stick with it. Let us know how the new treadmill is going!

 

I'm going to make a suggestion - do you guys want to move the challenge exclusively onto BDW? I'm still using spark for the trackers, but I'm with Kash - the double posting is starting to hurt.

DEFINITELY!!!! I'm in the same boat. I don't smoke, I don't drink (VERY occasional glass of wine) but I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my diet coke. Quitting diet coke is VERY hard. I decided to just do it "cold turkey" - it's the only way, or I'll NEVER give it up. I used to drink a 20oz bottle of diet coke everyday at lunch and then still have 1 or 2 more cans at night with dinner. Today is my 3rd day without diet coke. I feel like a junkie coming off a high right now.

Wow - 10 days clean, that's AWESOME!!!

Yes, I would love to keep the challenge here. As it is, I can't get any work done because of being on 1 forum, I don't think I can handle 2 forums. Thanks!

Of course! I'd love to lose more than 5 this month, but figured that 5 is probably more realistic.

So Kash had suggested doing small daily challenges to keep ourselves motivated. Things like drink 8 glasses of water today, or do 50 crunches. What do you ladies think?

BTW - I just got back from the gym, did 40 min on the elliptical/stepper from hell and strength training. My FI is really kicking my butt with the weights, but its good. Now, if I can just eat healthy for the weekend and go back to the gym...

I'm with Robin... Silly Shelley!

Great job Mrs.Butler (sorry - don't know your name)! Keep it up.

I did ok today - only did 20 min of cardio but I did 40 minutes of weights first, and abs. Will try to make it tomorrow, but I have a long work day. Weigh in for me is Wednesday, so we'll see how I did...

Hey All!

 

How are you guys doing it? What is your motivation? I am on sparkpeople too and I find it easy to track my food intake but I cant seem to exercise. I work from 9 to 6 and have a hour and a half commute each way and feel so tired when i get home. What do you guys recommend to get my butt into gear? Other than thinking of myself in that white dress of course!

 

ill probably join the sparkpeople group also.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
