I totally feel off the boat for the past 5 days. Boo! I was doing well, and had lost another pound or two, and I think my 5 day hiatus from the diet and exersice made me gain it all back :-( grr! I am quite mad t myself. Oh well. Today I go back. I have an event I want to go to at the end of September, and I want to lost 4 pounds for it. 4 pounds, 2 weeks! I can do it!

Who's skinny and hot now?

I really really hope you're not the Chi O Michelle with her own website.

Because if you are I'm going to slap you for worrying about the 4 pounds.

She's not. That girl was the best ever.

She was crazy crazy hot is what she was.

If I had to bet, I imagine people told her to take her website out of her sig because it "reflects poorly on her org" and she got mad and left.

No, I never had a personal website. Who is this girl? I've never heard of her.

The only website I have ever made was for a class on parasites. You can view it
here . Not a fun thing to catch!

But, I wanted to bump the thread, as things are going well, and I've done a good job for the past 5 days on eating/ getting activity in. In total, since last May, I've lost about 10 pounds. :) I still have 5 to go!

How are things going for everyone else?

Come work for Hertz...you'll lose 10 pounds in 3 1/2 months...

Bump!


I've lost 7 lbs in the last 2 weeks from REALLY trying.

I have 3 more lbs to go to meet my goal. Whoo hoo.

I cheated tho and did it by taking aderall. I had NO appetite. It was GREAT.

I've lost 17 since July! I'm really happy with how I look now. I'd to loose 5 more so that I can indulge over the holidays and then get back down to this size for my wedding in May! :) I just found out my wedding dress will be in next week so hopefully all my hard work will have paid off.

I'm also doing Pilates 2x a week and it's definitely lengthening my muscles. I hope to have kick ass arms for the big day like my instructor does!

Go Kathy! :-)

My bf and I are starting the Atkins diet tonight! Gotta lose weight. I've been hitting the gym pretty regularly. Like 2-3 times a week. Gonna start going 3-5 times a week. Thanksgiving is going to be harsh.

I know I said I'd do most anything to lose some weight, but I don't recommend losing 15 lbs. by being sick for 2 weeks. Now I'm just going to try to keep it off.

I think she is an AXiD . . assuming her organization didn't boot her for being hot.

BUMP
 

So hows everyone doing? We need status reports.

I've lost another 5 lbs since the last update. Its probably more, but since I am doing a lot of strength training, I am adding muscle weight as I loose fat. So my 11 lbs lost total, probably equals 15-17 in pre-strength training lbs. My trainer and I changed my target weight. I now need to loose another 7-8 lbs to reach my new target weight. I can have that off in a month no problem. Then its about bulking up. If I ate better (read cut out beer and sweets, and took in more protein) then I'd see a faster increase in size. I'm ok with that tho. I've been working out with the trainer for a year next month and if it takes me another year to get where I should be, than thats cool. I should see faster progress this year because I am 1) doing serious cardio and 2) increased the amount of strength training I do by a third. I am not concerned with getting stronger, I want to get bigger. I will. It will just take time. Time is what I've got.
