Mid Year Body Transformation Challenge Last Week!!!!

[sas85]

I HUUUURRRT getting out of bed this morning - it may have been a mistake to do another hard DVD on top of already sore muscles the next day. Takes me a few minutes to be able to walk straight, on my calves as they freeze up all sore whenever I am still for a while

On the bright side I jumped on the scales before brekky this morn and was 0.5kg down for this week. Anyone else too cold to take their measurements? It's bad enough stripping down to jump on the scales quickly, I am too much of a cold wimp to stay that way to tape measure it up Eh, I can tell by my clothes anyway.

It's been quiet in here of late. What's everyone doing to stay motivated?

OMG I think you got the answer Sas... I don't think everyone IS motivated! It's been sooo quiet! WEll I was .4kg up at the start of the week. Then back to status quo on Tues. Then .3kg down today! Woo hoo I'm so excited. Just deciding whether to walk or Wii Fit today (I cycled 40 mins yesterday and my legs are dead). I really want to make my mini-milestone for next week (yeah, the same one I was hoping to get a fortnight ago better late than never huh).

And all I can say to everyone else is... COME BACK! It doesn't matter what you did or didn't do yesterday or last week... it only matters what you do TODAY!!!

I'm still here and still plugging away! I haven't got much to report as I have been pretty busy just running around and trying to get my kids to sleep through the night *sigh*

Hi guys. Sorry I have been away in Brisbane at a workshop. Just an average week for me - some good times and some bad. Am hoping for just any loss this week. Even 0.1kg would be great.
Am feeling pretty motivated at the moment. Starting a new project at work and want to keep plugging on with the weight loss.
Here's where I am now:
Starting weight: 86kg
Current weight: 73.8kg (12.2kg lost so far)
Upper range healthy weight: 71kg (2.8 to go)
Weight I was in high school: 68kg (5.8 to go)
Weight I want to be at Xmas: 65kg (8.8kg to go)
Weight I want to be next March/30th BDay: 60kg (13.8kg)

My ultimate goal is 60kg. I have 8 months to lose it in (1.72kg per month).

Hope everyone is going well too!

wow Krysaluss - you are well on your way to your goals!! It helps to have mini goals doesn't it.

Well I seem to have 'plateaud', which is bummer as have been working soooo hard. Will jump on scales see if any better tomorrow as I weighed in Wed instead of Tues last week. Ah well, at least I held last weeks loss . . for me its never a loss unless it's held for a week so I guess thats something.

Krysalyss - you are doing fantastically!

Well I am 1.25kg down this week so 6.25 in total - the same as my 5 month old baby

Here's where I am now:
Starting weight: 80kg
Current weight: 73.75kg (6.25kg lost so far)
Weight pre-pregnancy: 68kg (5.75 to go)
Upper range healthy weight: 65kg (8.75 to go)
Weight I want to be at Xmas: 62kg (11.75kg to go)


My ultimate goal is 60kg too but probably by the time I go back to work in Feb next year.

wow, you guys are going great. It's really interesting to see goals... I'm gonna write mine too. I was feeling determined last week, but have lost nothing so have re-started WW online, and DH now joining in too yaaay so hopefully that will help. Really have slowed down more than I want in terms of weight loss. How do you guys keep motivated?

Highest weight: 71kg (or according to WW scales, 71.6kg - can't decide which to use) Feb 09
Lowest weight: 49kg (2002) - was a bit too skinny but I'd been sick.
When got married 10 years ago: 64kg
Current weight: 64.5 (lost 6.5kg so far)
Healthy BMI weight: 62.5 (2kg to go)
Goal weight: 57kg (about 22/23 BMI & waist of about 80cm - I'm apple shaped) (7.5kg to go)

And I hope to do this before getting PG again (hopefully later this year)... but am BF'ing (well expressing actually) so can only lose .5kg a week. I'm back at work in about 10 weeks... so could hope to lose 5kg by then... would be awesome to be under 60!!

Recently got some "gee you've lost some weight" comments which was lovely. And this arvo I'm going for a cycle on the exercise bike
Hope everyone else is going well.
