I almost spit out my tea. Thanks for the good laugh!

Clarita, I didn't sweat much today, either, for the same reason. The gym was chilly! I'm still counting it, though

. I did 60 minutes on the treadmill. Happy, happy. I have a challenging weekend coming up. Two concerts, eating out, I'm sure. Going to try very hard to keep it healthy but still satisfying.

I'm making the mistake of thinking if I eat tons of fruits and vegetables, I can also eat unlimited other stuff and they will cancel each other out. Not working

 

[dormouse]

I went to the gym three times this week, exactly as I intended. I lost a pound and a half since Monday. I'm at 138.5 from my original unhappy 142ish.

This exercise and eating well stuff really works! Whouda thunk it?

 

[Envy]

I'm going to the gym tomorrow.

I went to my mum's and ate all the food and now I have a tub of fudge in my bag

 

[clarita osita]

^^

Maybe try only allowing yourself a pre-determined amount of fudge every day until it runs out, or, if you don't trust yourself to do that, give it to somebody!

I didn't do wonderfully this month - it's always something with me, haha. Colds, coughs, bruised ribs... my lungs are really struggling living at high altitude. But I know eventually I'll get used to it, so I'm prepping a plan for when this cold I got in the last day or two goes away. Already making my February goals, actually.

I think I'm getting back to my normal weights.

The ones I lift.

 

[Pixie]

I have been eating healthier and having a lot more fresh fruit and veg although it hasn't made any difference on the scales. I used my exercise bike for about 10 minutes three times today. I might go and do another 10 mins and maybe use my kettlebells (if I am able to lift them!

)

 

[AddieB]

I've FINALLY been seeing some movement (in the right direction) on the scale. Makes me more excited about the efforts I've been putting in

 

[AddieB]

Well today is the last day for this month's challenge. I didn't make my goal of 6lbs, but I did lose 4lbs and I'm happy with that considering I had a pretty poor start to the month.

 

[PTree15]

Hey, AddieB, I lost 4 as well, and I'm pretty psyched, even though I didn't hit my goal of 7, but hey, there's always next month

. I met my exercise goals, but I'm still falling short on the water. I will work harder on that next month.

 

[yally]

I'm pretty sure I gained weight but it's hard to tell because, as if I haven't mentioned it enough across the boards, PERIOD.

Yeah that kills me too. I had a major stall last week, and as soon as mine ended the weight just went away. I retain water something crazy I guess.

Way to go! 4lbs definitely feels good, huh?

I have major problems with water too...

Thanks! It sure does feel good. After months of the weight slowly creeping up, it's nice to see it go the other way around! I did wicked awesome on water today: 56 ounces!

I might be up at 140 again. Hard to say. I ate a big breakfast and lunch before going to the gym on Monday, so that could easily account for a higher reading than normal.

 

[peacefulveglady]

I didn't do to much in Jan hopeing the next few months will be better.

Yeah, I'm still at 140, but I'm getting pretty muscle-y. Not sure how to measure that, but I'm betting my body fat percentage has gone down quite a bit in the last month.
