Re: 2016 Weight Loss Challenge
Posted by luvmykids8
I'm starting my diet tomorrow. My goal is to lose 25 lbs by May 1st. Anyone in? Would love to have some motivation! We could post our progress here!
I'm trying to lose almost 15 lbs by May 1st!!!
ETA: I just caught up on all the posts and I am in!
My method is counting calories on my fitness pal. I aim for under 1200 every day. I should really be at about 1000 to lose.
and to exercise at least 20 min every day.
But it is so hard.
I actually started my diet in October.
I lost 8 pounds before the holidays but the holidays, I gained a lot back and am already having trouble trying to lose it. I feel and look thicker than a few weeks ago too. I am about down 6 pounds now, but still have to lose at least 2 more to get back to where I was. and I'd like to lose like 12 lbs after that!!

Re: 2016 Weight Loss Challenge
Thurs. 1/7
Breakfast: SB Cheesy Frittata, tea with Aloe
Lunch: salad - romaine lettuce, boiled egg,Tuna salad, tomatoes,'French dressing Lite,
Dinner: thin sirloin steak with peppers & onions, SB cauliflower mash, green beans
Dessert: SB Mocha Ricotta Creme
Snacks: 1 cup of Decaf Apple Cinnamon tea with truvia, 1 chocolate rice cake

No challenge today, have to catch up tomorrow. Went to doctors and they put me on antibiotics and Steroids for my Asthma... Sucks because the steroids increase appetite and bloat. But hopefully this will finally kick out whatever I have so I can exercise next week.

I'm down 2 pounds, but my stomach was upset yesterday (and today) so I barely ate anything. I'll take it! But I also need to have enough willpower not to eat everything in sight when I'm feeling better!

Re: 2016 Weight Loss Challenge
As the weekend approaches, I'm stressing a bit. I know DH is gonna be upset that I won't want to go out to eat. His answer I always "just order something healthy"
It's not that simple. I have zero willpower. Plus eating out, there's no way I'll keep whatever I'm eating, healthy or not, to one serving
Ughhhhh when the rest of the world is waiting for the weekend, I can't wait for Monday

Yep, I have no willpower and its a slippery slope. I know I am not ready to go out to eat. My DH, although, he is dieting too, wants to go watch the games. I was like no.. impossible for me to not have a drink or steal a fry!
Check this out, I was dying!

Re: 2016 Weight Loss Challenge
Forgot to add my w/i from yesterday morning- down 1.2 pounds. :)
I don't write out my food diary here because I already track it on the WW app and it just seems redundant to do it twice.
Plan for the weekend - Belly, Butt and Thighs Bootcamp and Cardio Tai Boxing classes tomorrow...possibly some classes on Sunday, not totally sure if I can make it to the gym Sunday.

I'm measuring and weighing
I keep measuring cups and scale out on counter in kitchen so it takes 2 seconds to do
Just doing this for the main weight loss. Once I'm maintaining, I'll just eyeball. I'm so tired of being this heavy, it's worth the extra steps right now

you go girl, and let this one go. Clearly you needed carbs today and tomorrow will be better, let it go. Twice this week I had grilled cheese for dinner, that's not great, but I really dont know what else to eat, and I needed that comfort, so I'll let it go.

Re: 2016 Weight Loss Challenge
Fridays 1/8
Breakfast: Herbalife shake, tea with Aloe
Lunch: mish mosh of left overs lol: cauliflower mash, roasted veggies, cold cuts, green beans,
Dinner: grilled chicken, boiled sweet potatoe
late night craving : Bertoli sausage and rotini
Water: 56oz
Cheated with the Bertoli but my husband and I wee over the diet food and barely are the dinner, we were about to cheat and order Chinese but made the Bertoli instead. I was still under calories but the carbs and all the other stuff wasn't good.
I broke and weighed myself this morning and I am minus some lbs but I want to see if it sticks after the weekend. Then I will post! I am going out tonight and have to take my son to movies tomorrow.. Wish me luck!
