Two-Month Ten-Pounds Challenge

[SuperGabers]

Down two pounds.

Awesome, RC! What about the rest of you? It is easy to get back on the wagon if you fell off this week.

Down by 2.5.

293.6, I got 11 in January so 10 in February would be awesome.

290.2, after a weekend of gorging in Utahr. I'm pretty happy with that. On pace for 10.

Weight myself this weekend. Damn needle wouldn't hold still, but it was bouncing just north of 200. About 201 or 202. So I guess I'm shooting for low 190s.

184 this morning. All diet, as I haven't even found time to go running since we started this. I have been trying to do 50 pushups, 50 tricep dips, and 50 crunches every night, but so far I've only managed every other night.

The diet part is what I always struggle with. I don't have problems getting motivated to work out, but I have a hell of a time trying to control my food intake. And really, above all, sweets.

down two after not a great week in terms of caloric intake.

[Eddie]

Down 1.3 lbs.

9 more to hit the 10 lb challenge - which will also get me down to 200.

And really, above all, sweets.

The sweets are always my problem too. I find that if I can go around two weeks without them, it's easier, but those two weeks are usually pretty hard for me. I started cutting out pretty much all sugar on January 15, and since then, I'm down five pounds. Once I start seeing results, it's easier for me to say no when I'm offered something sweet.

Well, I'm down 3 since the beginning of the month (this morning - 196) I want to get to 170 before I go see the Doc again.

As far a diet goes - if I don't write EVERYTHING down, I lose track of what I am eating and ...

I really don't have a problem with sweets any more (unless there are home made carmels around), but I do have a problem with munching on nuts.

Amen to that. Once I get momentum, I am unstoppable. Boxes of girl scout cookies are outside my office, half open and free to all takers, and have been there all week. And I have not even eaten one.

Wow. Nice work Coach. What are you doing, I must have missed if you explained in other threads.

Killing it.
