K well tiem for me to get motivated. I want at least 10 lbs down. Got just over 5 weeks to do it. The diet restarts tommorow.
me too!! back on the band wagon come Monday for me..I have been very slack since the middle of June.. I mostly end up maintaining over the summer but have been indulging way to much.. I have gained over half of what i lost ;(
It's ok, thought maybe you had misread it, cause after I typed that I reread my post and was like what? LOL. It's ok, it's Sunday night, so no biggie, but trust me you guys will get there! It certainly has not been easy for me, quite the change in mind set, but I'm getting there. I found a great start up workout that is only 4 minutes and a certain guy got me doing flutterkicks and mason twists. A change was what I needed, down 2 pounds these past two weeks! Now I want a pizza though! (deleted mine for you too!)
yep ill get there!.. I always get there, its staying there that is the hard part for me ..I am already in the healthy weight for my height.. but I am not comfortable at this weight and fight it constantly.. lol with saying that though being 10 lbs less I am not a bag of bones...hahah!!
Nice! I'm so short that I'm just now back in the healthy weight depending on which bmi calculator you look at. I swear they are all different, so as long as I feel great that is all that matters and since I can start to feel my muscles in places that I know there was only chub before, I'm feeling great! I haven't had an alcohol since May though, so I might need to start putting that back into my diet to get ready for Labor Day!
Good for you! Congrats on realizing those BMI calculators are highly inaccurate and misleading. Hydrostatic weighing is very accurate and sometimes offered at bargain prices or available at some colleges & university's. Skin fold calipers of a good quality and done by an experienced person (can learn tips from internet searches) are also very good. I agree with you on going by how u feel and how u like what u see... which,, we are our own harshest critics, so, I'm sure you are doing great!
Thanks! I do feel great now! And yeah, I looked at a bunch of different bmi calculators last night, they all were different and it is ridiculous!
