Guest guest Posted August 24, 2008 Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 Liza, that is awesome! We are way too similar Your weight loss has been about like mine -- just a few pounds each challenge. I am on C3 -- probably 8 weeks into it. I have essentially just maintained. I don't think I've really changed my eating plan and I've been exercising as usual. In fact, exercising a little more since I am biking to work at least three days a week, if not 5, along with the regular mix of 5 AM cardio and weight workouts. We have had two weekend getaways in the last month or so and during these I have not done the best on food so that is likely my problem. Plus, this weekend I have been HORRIBLE. Did great all day Friday, but it was my stepson's bday and we went out to eat at a Tex-Mex restaurant. I ordered the fish tacos. They served three and I ate three (should have stopped at two -- or even one!), and I also had chips plus there was the obligatory piece of cake once we got home (but I don't really like the cake, so I had a small slice and won't have any more of it). Yesterday I helped put on a Century (100 mile) bike ride. I don't even want to think about all the junk I ate -- it is embarrassing. Friday was supposed to be free day since we did the bday thing, but that spilled over into yesterday. Yikes! Well, today is a new day. I have a hike planned for this morning, and it's time to get back on track with the food!

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Good job ! I'm glad to see somebody with slow weight loss. I just started my week8 of Challenge 1 and I have lost NO lbs, BUT I have lost ton of inches all over my body (7 inches) and my body shape is changing. I'm sticking to BFL 100%, workouts, food and all, and I'm not as frustrated by the scale not moving since I know I'm doing all I can. My goal weight is 115 lbs, I'm at 134.8 now ( and have been for 2 months since starting BFL). I'm planning on doing as many challenges as is takes to get to my goal. good luck to all, Ivona Re: Finished C2 - YAY! That is fabulous! You are heading toward your goal and you have almost made it! s On Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 7:32 AM, Liza Wood <lizawd3yahoo (DOT) com> wrote: > > Starting weight after C1 was 118.8 down to 115 - lost 3.8 lb. > Neck - 12.5 to 12.0 > Chest - 33.0 > Waist - 28.75 to 28.5 > Waist at the navel 32.75 stayed about the same. > Hips widest point - 35.5 to 35 > Thighs - 20.25 to 20 > Calf - 12.75 to 12.5 > Biceps - 11.25 to 11.0 > > My goal is 110 lb. only 5 lb left!
