Mallory's Weigh In

I weighed this morning and I am down to 243.6 which isn't much better than yesterday but it seems better somehow. I weighed myself this morning and I am down 5 pounds in two weeks so that's ok.

Today's plan:

Stay within calorie goal of 1300
drink three bottles of water (96 oz)
do Zumba if Justin doesn't have a mtg.

I am so frustrated

So my last weigh in was two pounds lower than this morning's weight. Grrr. So now I am back up to 244.something. I didn't even look at the decimal because I was so upset. I thought I had been eating well, although I hadn't been tracking. So I guess that tracking is what I need to do. I weighed everything this morning and now I am drinking water. I did turn my body bugg back on so I am tracking on the bodybugg website which means putting all my foods in. At least the ones I had already put in are still there.

Carrie's Monday

I didn't weigh in this morning because after a week with my husband I know I'm up. So I'm starting over today. I do have to go in to my old job a couple of days this week so I hope that doesn't throw anything off. I'm hoping that stabilizing my diet will help Hanna sleep better. I think my breast milk has been making her unhappy. My goals this week are to get to the gym at least 3 times, drink 3 Nalgenes a day, and track my calories. Totally doable!

Monday Monday, dum dum, dum da dum dum

This morning I weighed in at 185.0. I'm super glad to see it continue to go down! Today I'm going back to kickboxing. It seriously kicked my butt on Thursday. I mean, I expected it to, but not as much as it did. At one point I started to get lightheaded and had to really slow down. Ah well. It'll get better... hopefully it'll start to get better today. :)

Mallory's Thursday

So, it's supposed to be beautiful today here. It looks great already and I am going to find the sling for the baby and take them to the park. I need to make a grocery list and do a million other things but I think mostly I need to be active. Lori asked me about my bodybugg and I think I am going to renew my subscription. If I do that I will not track on livestrong anymore which kind of makes me sad because I have a ton of foods put into it. I weighed myself this morning and I was down again to 242.0 which is better but reaffirms that salt is the devil.

Today's plan is to drink water
Track what I eat
find my bodybugg watch
walk to the park

Lori's Update

Sorry, I know my posting will be pretty erratic just b/c of my schedule and the demands, but I'm going to try to post once a week or once every two weeks.

I had more steroid injections into my spine on Monday and my back still isn't feeling great. I'm hoping that it'll continue to get better. I also had my 6 wk OB apt on Monday so now I am clear to exercise but was just told to take it easy with my back. Today I am going to go to kickboxing for the first time in probably 3 months.

My weight today was 186.4, so it's coming down, just slowly. I think that's 1.6 lbs down since this time last week. My dr also put me back on my glucophage (which he took me off of right after birth), so that'll help regulate my sugars and I'm hoping it'll help me lose weight faster. We'll see.

My eating has been pretty good, although I find it hard to track. I just need to not eat at my parents' house... they have girl scout cookies. At least I just had two on Tuesday - I could eat the whole box in a matter of minutes I'm sure. ;)

Carrie's Monday

Sorry, a little late! My weight was 267, so a 3 pound weight loss this last week. Actually, Im pretty surprised since I only got to the gym twice because Hanna had a little cold and I didn't want to take her to the kid's club. Hopefully, this next week will be ok, but my husband is off for the week and it is always hard to eat well when he's home.
