Kristen's Weigh in for 29 January

Weigh in: 240.2
Lbs. lost: 1
Percent lost: .4 %
Total Percetn lost: 1.6 %

Sorry that I didn't post yesterday, the computer at home wasn't working. So, this week, I exercised almost every day. I traded off doing eliptical, cycling, and treadmil. I also added weight lifting to my routine. I didn't do so hot with the food this week. Though I am eating more yogurt and more veggies, I still did overeat a few times at dinner time. I am working on that (and am improving because I didn't overeat as much as I used to, and usually at dinner, if I get too much food, I will give the rest of it to my friend who is in my dinner group). I also am trying not to just sit as often. If I watch TV, instead of sitting on my couch, I will bounce or roll on my exercise ball. Though I didn't lose much this week, I sure did feel a lot better and had more energy.

Nathan Finally Figured this out.

Hey there every body. Sorry that I didn't post last week, but I am kinda slow when it comes to figuring out technology. This week I, though I want to let you all know what I am up to (or down to).

Beginning Weight: 257
Weight as of 29 January: 244
Weight loss this week: 13 (Two week loss)
% of loss this week: 5
Total % of loss: 5

This I have done with alterations in my diet (cut out carbonation, smaller portions, much much much less junk food, increase intake of fruits and vegetables) and moderate amounts of exercise (walking around the block as I go to catch the bus, taking the stairs instead of elevator/escalator, etc, etc). I know that it isn't much and with this little effort I won't be able to meet target weight and so I need to step up my exercise a lot. Let you know next week.

Weigh in for last week and for this week

So I built an excel spreadsheet to help us all with our weight loss stuff. Here is the link for it.

I hope that it works ok for everyone. I tried to send an email with the info too but didn't have everyone's emails addresses. It looks like everyone is losing weight, way to go!!! I am happy because I actually started at 220 about a week before we started the contest. Good luck.

Melanie's check in

I am stationary....well not completely but I didn't lose any weight this week...This next week will be a lot better now that the bathroom is almost finished and I can get into a regular exercise schedule. Good job everyone this week.

Amy's Weigh in for 1/29/08

Beginning Weight: 173 lbs
Current Weight: 166.8 lbs
Weight lost this week: 3.6 lbs
Total Weight Lost: 6.2 lbs
Total Percentage Lost: 3.58%
I had lost another lb on top of this, but unfortunately gained that back. It looks like the second week and upcoming weeks are going to be a little harder than the first. We just really need to stick to it guys! Good luck!
WEIGH IN WEIGHT JANUARY 29TH -
212 pounds 1.8 percent loss - I gained this week - guess that's what I get for losing so much in the first week. When Dann calls me while picking Jason up at 9:00 at night and wants to know if I want chinese food doesn't help. We hadn't had dinner yet and I wasn't going to eat because I wasn't really hungry, but then the temptation sets in!

Hopefully I can do better in the exercising category. Man Amy is a strict lady, if you keep up all that exercise you are going kill all of us! I will try to find some fun articles this week.
