Chris B's Weekly Weigh-in

Thanks NL, I really appreciate the support! :D

I was good yesterday! I was CRAVING fast-food last night -- **BAD**. We ate kinda early, so I was dying by 9:30. I faught the urge though, and I felt proud this morning. I've been giving in to those cravings as of late, so I'm just glad I survived. ;)

I may have to stay late at work tonight, so I'm not sure if I'll make it to the gym. I will try though. :)
 
I've been doing well for these past few days :)

I made it to the gym last night, and I had a really nice workout. 20 minutes on the elliptical, 20 minutes of weights, and then did some crunches on the ball. I was really fired up about going, so I had a ton of energy -- which felt GREAT, because I've been really sluggish lately.

This weightloss challenge at work is really helping to get me re-motivated! I'm just gonna be thrilled when I get below 200 lbs! I'm SO CLOSE! Its been at least 7 years since I've been below 200 lbs. :eek:

Almost there!! :D
 
Well, I guess I can consider last week a success. I slipped up a few times, and only made it to the gym once. But I lost 4.5 pounds! :D

I'm now down to 201 -- so close to under 200! :) Hopefully I can get there by this time next week.

I also plan on making more trips to the gym this week.

Yesterday was pretty tough because we went to my mother's for Easter lunch, then my mother-in-law's for Easter dinner. I was afraid I was going to ruin a week's worth of work the day before weigh-in. :eek:

But, it all worked out! :) Talk to ya'll later.
 
Hey there Tempest!
Looks like this challenge is just what you needed! 4.5 lbs is wonderful! You are soooo close to being under 200! How cool is that?!?:p

You have some awsome determination! Keep up the good work!.....Cabana:p
 
Wow, sorry I haven't posted in forever! I've been super busy with the new job. :) Thats a good thing though!

I'm down another 4 pounds this week! :D That puts me at 197! I'm FINALLY under 200 pounds! Wow. I just stopped and stared at the scale this morning. I haven't been under 200 in a LONG time.

I don't think I'm going to hit 185 by May 15th, but I'm okay with that. I've still come a long way, and I'll get to 185 eventually. :)
 
Congratulations!!! 12lbs to your goal. I am so impressed!! :) Way to go!!! You are doing great. I imagine its wonderful to be under 200! You should post some updated pics! :D
 
Thank NL! :)

I'll have some pictures taken so I can post them.

I found out that I'm winning the weight-loss challege at work, so that gave me a nice boost of confidence!

I haven't been going to the gym as much as I once was, but I'm still going about twice a week. But, now, more than ever, I need to really start going to the gym. That way I can tone up. I've lost weight, but I'm still flabby. :p
 
I haven't been putting much in my diary these days, especially since I got the new job. But I'm still sticking to my diet! :)

I lost another pound and a half this week!

I was going for 2 to 3 pounds, but at least I'm headed in the right direction!

I lost 10 and a half pounds in the April Challenge, just a half pound shy of my goal. I only made it to the gym once last week, and worked out once at home.

This week I *will* go to the gym at least THREE TIMES. :D
 
Oh yeah, I'm starting to notice one more thing..

When I got my new job, I had to go out and buy pants, and I was able to fit into size 36 pants! Which I hadn't fit into in a *while*.

Well now, the 36's are getting too loose! :eek: I can't believe it. I might go try on some 34's this weekend. :D

I've still got a bit of a gut, but thats only going to go away with a few million situps. :p
 
Hey there Tempest,
I haven't posted here in a while. :eek:
But things look like they are going well with you. That's great.:D

I know exactly how you are feeling about buying new cloths! CONGRATS! Isnt that great! :)
It is such an amazing feeling. I too-am in need of a smaller size now-AGAIN. Now if I can only find jeans in the store, all those capri thingys are in season. (and I cant wear them to work) ya' know/dress code.

Its great that you are sticking to your diet, even though your not hitting the diary as much any more, just remember--we're still here for ya. .....Keep it up................Cabana:p
 
Thanks Cabana! I'm kind of afraid to go buy cloths that are even smaller, because I don't want to gain the weight back and not fit into them any more! :p I just can't let that happen, right!? :)

I made it to the gym last night and had a really nice workout. 15 minutes on the elliptical, 20 minutes of weights, and 10 minutes on the ball.

My arms are kinda sore this morning, but thats a good thing! Makes me feel like a had a solid workout last night.

The Big Money Challenge has been extended until May 14th, so I'm trying to lose another 5 pounds or so before then.

Laters
 
Ugh. I've struggled through the past two weeks. I have my good days here and there, but mostly I'm still just eating way too much of the wrong thing for dinner. :p I did make it to the gym twice, but my diet's been all out of whack.

I'm back up to 199 right now -- and feelin' bloated! :(

For my own sake, I'm going to repeat a great quote that I found on these forums a few months back:

"Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels."

I've just gotta keep that in mind! :)
