Amen Corner(which IS my HUSBAND and not me, KantuckyII) and myself have been walking about 3 miles each evening. He wants me to run but that is not going to happen and he gets mad at me when I say that....Walking does make you feel better and I have been sleeping better as well....Weigh in tomorrow morning....let's hope I atleast dropped a pound.

after one week, I have lost 3 lbs. I weigh in at 317. Will report back in one week.

[Rhiannon]

After 1 week, I have lost 2 lbs.

Congrats 85inside on the loss......kind of sounds weird congratulating someone on a loss doesn't it?

[orange-n-brown 365]

Weight this week was down 3 lbs. Overall, down 79, since posting on this thread, down 2.5. I usually average about 4 lbs. a month, so that's a big loss for me. I had set a goal for myself to lose 15 lbs. between Labor Day and Christmas. I'm close, but, not there yet. I'll take it though! Congrats to all the losers.

shhhhhhhh don't tell my kids but we are getting a Wii for Christmas (my eldest bought it and changed her mind so mom is getting it from her)and I'm thinking about getting a Wii board or whatever its called to use to help with the weight loss...

CRAP , I read this and I guess I am in too. I think my current weight is around 360, but I will have to wait until tomorrow to go to the FEED STORE to get on the market scales LOLOL.... ANyway, before a lost a knee and fractured my neck I was a stout weight lifting 240 3 years ago, but due a neck injury I have grown to my current size.........SO I too will join to see what I can loose........
I would say my ultimate goal would to drop to 200.....Thats loosing around 160 pounds......So I am guessing that the normal is 10 pounds a month which is 2-3 pounds a week. 3 pounds a week X 52 weeks is 156 pounds so I am guessing by next Christmas I will reach my goal or close to it.
Are we posting monthly results or weekly results?????? When do we start, Jan. 1 ???

Merry Christmas.

DIET AND EXERCISE....DIET AND EXERCISE....DIET and EXERCISE!!!!!

I lost 70 lbs in 4 months. I lost all of that by very strictly eating breakfast (big part, gets your metabolism going for the day) eating a lunch and a dinner (of course), cut out the pop and drank stuff with slim to no calories in it, I never ate 6 hours before i went to bed (though 5 days out of the week it ended up being and i exercised for at least 1/2 an hour every day. I made it a point to lose weight so most days i did about an hour. I didnt kill myself and go out sprinting everyday, most days i simply got bored and would take an hour walk. Once you see yourself losing weight you get addicted to how you start to look and you'll find yourself taking a couple walks a day. Dont give up. Good luck to everyone in your weight loss! It CAN be done.

bought an eliptical 5 days ago. I have been on it every day so far. It has already made me feel better. Will weigh in on Sunday for first weigh in.

I have owned and ellipitcal for about 6 months, and use it 5 days week, it is tremendous, you can easily burn 750 caloreis+ in 30 minutes, if you work hard enough, also an excellent tool for pre weight lifting workouts ,to get that tone and definition.
