View Full Version : Weight loss chalenge:Successes
MANDERS 05-30-2002, 11:27 PM Ok so we've posted our goals and all now its time to post our Successes.
Today I made fried pork chops,mac and cheese and green beans and only ate about 1/2 cup of the green beans and made myself some low fat walfuls,with promise butter(at only 5 calories per serving)and 1tbs light syrup with strawberries on tops.It was yummy and I made dh pack the rest of the pork chops for lunch tomorrow.I btw I love pork chops so this was hard for me,but it feels better in the long run.
CAGmomof2 06-02-2002, 02:54 PM Today I had one Fajata Quesadila!! I splurged on the Dr. Pepper!! :) So far I have lost a total of 1 lb this week!! :)
aylasmommy 06-03-2002, 03:18 PM For breakfast I had some thinnly sliced homemade wheat berry bread with lettuce tomatoe and sprouts..and skipped the mayo even though it was light..whoo hoo! (i had heard that jennifer anniston lost weight by cutting out mayo and butter don't know if it's true...but I'm going to try cutting it out more at least!)
I have lost two pounds since I last weighed myself :)
At first I thought the scale had broke :D
I just finished a 53 minute high intensity sweat inducing workout..I feel toner already :D
I drank water this morning..I've cut back a lot on soda's..and I bought the fixings to make homemade english muffin pizza's to keep from from eating the fatty round table ones!
My fridge is also litterally packed with healthy foods!
CAGmomof2 06-03-2002, 03:24 PM I had a Doctor's appoinment today and I have lost weight according to there scales I have lost about 6 lbs!!
I thought for sure I would weigh alot more than what I did but I didn't!! :)
Today I had dry cereal for breakfast!!
For Lunch I had a little bit of Shepherd's Pie!!
For Dinner I am not sure yet!!
For a Snack I am having one soda and the Remainder of Reese's Pieces!! :)
aylasmommy 06-12-2002, 12:07 PM Well today I'm back on track (I got sick but am fighting it with Nyquil)
I had some whole wheat bread with reduced fat Peanut Butter, honey and sliced apricots
Then I did a 38 minute workout with Denise Austin's show that comes on in the morning :) (It was stretching, and intraval training)
The only negative was that one of the things we had to do was these leg/butt raises with a weight stuck in the bend of our knee and mine fell right on my calf! OUCH! But i finally figured it out:bang:
crdurham 06-12-2002, 02:31 PM I have been doing really good....me and dh are eating more healthfully....I need to get to the gym more, but I have been pretty active around the house....gardening and trying to get ready for a yard sale.....I will go to the gym today!!!
So far today:
breakfast : bowl of mini wheat cereal with fat free milk
lunch: tomato and fat free mayo sandwich
snack: cupcake....yummy...lol
I'm on the right track!!!
doodlebug 06-13-2002, 08:59 PM :wave: Hi, I'm a newbie! I'd love to join your group if that's ok?
I've lost 6 pounds since June 1. My goals are:
to go from 228 lbs to 150 lbs.
to exercise on a regular basis.
to eat what's right for my body so I feel good, to be careful of carbs and cut out all junk foods, to drink plenty of water.
Breakfast was a spoon of natural peanut butter and a cup of milk.
Lunch was a crustless pizza and a sugar-free popsicle.
Dinner was 3 pieces of lean bacon, green beans and tomato slices.
Snack was some cashews.

MANDERS 07-12-2002, 03:12 PM Woohoo!!!As I posted in the pick me up thread I am down to 138 from 204 when ds was born.Also we went swim suit shopping this past weekend and I got a 2 piece.It took a while to try them on and find the right one(stretch mark problems and I'm not tan all over.)but I got into a 9 on the bottoms and since I was blessed by the age of 10 a xl on top!!
CAGmomof2 07-12-2002, 03:29 PM Way to go Amanda !! You have given me inspiration!! :)
aylasmommy 07-12-2002, 03:39 PM congrats amanda! I'd love to be xl on top too :D
I never blossomed until like my junior year! :(
Guess I'll mention that I'm now almost at my ideal weight...thanks to sticking to working out at least 50 minutes 3 times a week, instead of 30 like I used to!
(ok that and not pigging out as much)
I can't remember what I started out weighing when this thread started..BUT I do know that there was a point not too long ago (2 months ago?) where I gained and was getting close to 121..
But I just weighed in this morning, and I'm at 111! So 10 pounds lost is a great thing!! I feel so much better, and TONS more energectic than before! I used to sit at the computer as long as possible but NOW I can't stay on more than 10 minutes at a time!
woo hooo..that and my husband seems a lot happier about how I look too :D
Ok now my goal is to get those dimpled toned arms all those actresses/models have :D
CAGmomof2 07-12-2002, 03:42 PM Way to Go Heather and good luck on the rest of your challenge!! :)
CAGmomof2 07-12-2002, 03:46 PM Well I have lost about a total of 5lbs and I am keeping it off so that is a good start for me!!
My Long-Time Goal is to be 132 lbs !!
I still have a long way to go but I am not giving up on my goal!! :)
MANDERS 07-16-2002, 12:46 PM The dimple toned arms like Jennifer Aniston and Heather Locklear,yep that's what I'm shooting for too.And to get the dimples out of my butt.lolGreat job guys!It does help to have people going through the same thing you are going through.I have bumped up my workout by going to the park and walking for an hour while pushing ds in the stroller and dd riding her bike beside us.And at night after dinner I take ds out around the neighborhood which is 1.25 miles threw the whole thin and then push dd in the stroller one time too so she won't feel left out,which is great cause she weighs 42lbs and pushing her up hill is a great workout for my whole lower body.
