~DISappearing PEEPS~Vol. IV Come Play With Us!!!!!

I've been behind for most of the year and have missed all of you but haven't had enough time - at least partially for an "on topic" reason. At the beginning of April I started a 10 week "Biggest Loser" type program at my local gym. Eight of us started it and about 1/2 were still involved at the end. I lost 16.4 pounds & 15 inches. Still wearing a 20 so obviously a long way to go but really pleased with the program. A friend & I did it together which helped tremendously. She ended up winning ( a year's membership) so I have a workout partner at least for a year.

We worked out an hour a day six days a week for the ten weeks. We finished just as summer was really getting started and everyone seems to be out of their regular routines. We're hoping it will get easier to stay on track when everyone gets back to their regular routines.

Thursday, I did Pilates for 30 min & a "Body Shock" class for 30 minutes and I've been sore ever since, but I did cardio Friday & Sat and hope to do better with my eating next week. That's still my worst battle.

I obviously still need to be concentrating on both exercise & diet to continue my losing. Hope we all have a good week.
 
I started a DLRP trip report tonight. The link is in my siggie.
Warning - There will be a tiny bit of food porn.
 
Hey Peeps!

What happened to this thread it use to be one of the most active ones and now the emails are only here and there.

I know I am to blame as well I am so busy lately but I have been doing well with my dieting and eating. I am on the insanity program and I am loving it!

My mom and I just booked a Decemeber Disney Trip I am so looking forward to it. :banana::banana:
 

Danielle going to subscribe to your tr. i can't wait to see what disneyland paris looks like.

I have weighed myself for last friday and I forgot to come on and post - i'm a samer from re-comitting but i'm happy with that, AF came on Monday so I should be good for this friday.
 
See you there, Laura.

LMO - the email didn't seem to be working earlier today. But I know, this thread has slowed way down. I hope peeps are out enjoying their summers.
 
WOW! I didn't figure I'd be the first to check in this morning! Hope everyone is off having a good time.

I am a SAMER again this week. I am just glad I didn't gain. I've been home, sick all week with absolutely no energy. Went to the DR and they're doing blood tests to try to figure what's wrong. It's no biggie, just have no explanation for the symptoms (ruled out swine flu ;) ). Should get results tonight or tomorrow.

Hope you all have a great weekend! :thumbsup2
 
I am -1.2!! Whoo hoo! I just finally decided to keep more of an eye on my weekend splurges. I am doing Weight Watchers (no meetings, just following the plan) and I never use my extra points during the week, but I would cheat on the weekends. Well I decided to actually keep track and only use up to my extra points on the weekends so I did. Also, I didn't drink any soda this weekend like I usually do and I found some low cal adult beverage recipes at the Hungry Girl website, as well as some 0 calorie margarita mix (made with Splenda) from a company called Baja Bob. Got it at my local liquor store. Anyway, I feel good about the changes I am making and feel it will be the little extra I needed to actually start shedding a pound or so a week! Wish me luck!

LUCK! :goodvibes

Got a call from the DR and I am very anemic. Made a follow up appointment to discuss how to handle it. Glad it wasn't something more to worry about! :yay:
 
No weigh-in from me this week. I'm in SLC. Meeting the threadmama and Spongemommie tomrrow. Woo hoo!
 
It has been so long since I had checked in, that a new thead was started and you are so far along! :scared1: I am amazed!

Life has been keeping me very busy, as I am working a new job with the bank, Fraud Specialist, DD, SIL & GS have moved back home and she is pregnant again and DS is getting married next June! Life is full!

On the weight front, I have lost almost 20lbs since last I was here. Eating healthy has been the key and has helped DH & DS as well. We are all getting healthier. :thumbsup2

I will need to backtrack a little and catch up with everyone. I am back and will check in regularly.....I have missed you all and can't wait to "see" what you have been up to!
 
UGH! I sooo need to get back on track!
Went camping (camping FOOD, people!) and need to stop snackin'.

Meh. I hate excuses so after a weekend of yumminess, I'm putting my carcass back on track.

Dweeatl....so loved meeting you!:hug:

Gayle- GOOD for you! I'm down 17 since we started the smack down!

hi utah mama! this thread hasnt been the same since u have been gone! we need to pump this thread back to life.

what about it peeps lets all recommit monday! start posting more...myself included
 
I lost 3 pounds this week, but it is the 3 I gained on a little weekend trip last week, but I'm almost back to my highest loss (20 pounds - right now I'm back to 19). I'm trying to get into a regular routine. My gym offers a "body shock" class ( 30 minutes) that I try to get to three days a week and I've also picked up a 30 minute Pilates class that I really like two days a week.

I've decided if I do Body Shock & cardio Monday
Pilates, Body Shock & a little cardio Tues & Thur
and 30 minutes to an hour cardio (three other days a week)

I'll still be doing less that I was during the Biggest Loser competition I did, but I still should be able to continue losing weight - so that's my goal!

Hope everybody has a great week!
 
Didn't make it by here yesterday, but I'm +1 this week. DR said that he has a few more tests he wants to run before he can figure what the cause of my anemia is for sure, but we started with Iron supplements. I hate taking them because they make me feel horrible. Bloated, more nauseas than I normally get, and I feel like all the energy is zapped out of me. :confused3 Feels almost worse than being anemic! Anyway, he should have a better idea of things this next week, and we can go from there.

Eating-wise things have been fine, but without much energy, I have not been doing much in the way of exercising. Hoping that I am able to solve that problem here soon.

Hope you all are enjoying your weekend... have a great week!
 
Getting back on the health wagon again tomorrow! who is with me!!! I have been exercising and working out pretty consistently but I feel like Im giving into temptation to easily especially on the weekend

I'm sorry you're feeling so tired. It's frustrating to know what you want to do but not have the energy to do it. I know some days are just longer than others and I can tell I don't have the same energy to work as hard as I would like. I hope the doctor can help you feel better.
