Re: TTC Weightloss challenge

Last week went well. I'm down 3.5 pounds. (16.5 to go!!)

I stuck to WW (with flex points) and I did something active for at least 20 minutes each day. Walked the dog, did the elliptical, yesterday I cleaned like a crazy person.

My question for the TTC girls, though. Usually when I'm trying to lose weight I significantly increase my water intake. However, with OPKs you need to "hold it" for at least 4 hours and NOT intake too much H20.

How are you handling that? TIA.

Re: TTC Weightloss challenge

Count me in too. I have been on WW since february and have lost 29 pounds so far... it is so hard to do, I want to lose a total of 50 pounds, but I need the support of all of you.
My goal this week is not to snack too much and to start walking daily.Chat Icon

Can I join too? I have gained 30-40 pounds since my wedding last May. Some of it is from taking fertility drugs, and the rest is from shoving food in my mouth to ease my frustration each month I'm not pregnant! Need to do something quick before I bust!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: TTC Weightloss challenge

So.....it's been a while since we all checked in.

How's it going?

I fell off the wagon this past weekend (major TTC blues made me eat many brownies)!

But so far this week I'm doing good. Went hiking on Monday, walked the dog Tuesday, going to do the elliptical tonight.

Everyone else doing okay?

Re: TTC Weightloss challenge

Lauren, Christine and Deb - CONGRATS!! Chat Icon you are all doing so well!

Me, on the other hand.. well I am good during the week but the weekends have killed me. AND I fully admit that I haven't been dedicated to this at ALL so I only have my laziness to blame

But since Monday I have really been good and am feeling very confident about sticking to my diet.. I even went to a BBQ on Monday and didn't pig out (no small feat for me!)

DH and I have been pretty good about going to the gym so that isn't my problem, my problem is EATING

my goal is to try to lose at least 10-15 pounds by my anniversary on July 25 (which would only be half of what I gained, but hey its a start)

I hope I can do it Chat Icon

Re: TTC Weightloss challenge

COUNT ME IN!!!

OK I lost 12 lbs., then got pregnant so I went off WW...gained about 2 lbs. This past week I expected a HUGE gain after N'awlins (oh those hurricanes and pecan pie!!) but I guess between the walking, dancing and bding I didn't do any damage.

I have about ...oh 80 lbs to go to be at an ideal weight!! But I have to just keep on working on the small goals.

Congrats to all who have lost!! I promise to stay on program this week!!

Re: TTC Weightloss challenge

Thought I'd resurrect this thread.

I've been following WW religiously for the past 2 weeks.

Down 3 pounds. I know I could do better if I would also workout and diet, but my energy level is non-existant and the Clomid hot flashes make it even less fun.

I wish they had sex listed as an exercise!! The amount of BDing we do has to count for something!!! Chat Icon

How's everyone else doing???

Is it too late to get in. I got PG after I lost 50 pounds before my first PG and then gained it all back during my pregnancy. 2 1/2 years later I have lost only 20 of those "baby pounds". Now TTC again and having trouble. My mini goal right now is 20 pounds, but I really would like to lose about 50, even though weight charts for me say I should lose about 70.

DH and I started South beath Saturday. So far so good, I am down about 6 pounds and DH about 8. This is the first time he has done it with me, which is making it sooooo much easier for me.

Boosh you are soo lucky Captain jumped right in there with you. Captain- you are one helluva guy!

Re: TTC Weightloss challenge

HaHa...I am pathetic. I lost some, gained some and am now trying to lose some again. I still need to lose at least 15 pounds! I am not at my max anymore, but not at a great weight for me yet either. I am back on the bandwagon this week and have been doing pretty good.

I have been thinking about bumping this thread, so here it is.

My goal for this week is to continue my current plan for eating-
Breakfast-
Fiber One with skim milk and a banana

Lunch-
Turkey sandwich and side salad

Dinner- some kind of lean protein, salad and small serving of carbs.

Snacks- grapes, Power Bar Pria, pineapple chunks and grapefruit.

Thankfully I love fruit. For the last week it's been about all I snack on.

Re: TTC Weightloss challenge

I really need to loose weight. But I have this huge problem of drinking way to much dr. pepper. I love it soooo much. But I'm going to do what my mom is doing. She is on the subway diet. But she makes her own at home. And in the past week and a half she has lost 5 punds. She hasn't even been exercising really. And it's really filling you don't feel hungry. Plus you get a lot of vitamins because you put tons of veggies on them. I'm gonna give it a go. And hope for the best.
