I Wish I Knew How to LOSE You--The Weight Loss Thread (check first post)

[Lynne]

Work it, Lynne!

I'm still working on the Fat Smash diet......progress is slow at the mo.....but I'm still eating right and exercising.  5 pounds in 5 days.....can't complain.

I should have more drop off soon.

Thank you for the encouragement, Chuckie!  You're an inspiration all your own!

Avoid the cobble stone.  Watch where you step.   No sprinting.   Dress warmly.

I love you too, Ronny.  

As I mentioned, Paul called, probably to make sure I didn't over-do it and remembered to cool down.  You guys.  

Here's the route I took:

My First 5K Training Run

If you've got the right plug ins you can see the neighborhood.  I even took some pictures while walking/resting.  I was pleasantly surprised that I could walk about a block, jog (gently) about 2-3 blocks, then walk another block...for about 1 mile over 40 minutes.  I was expecting to have to start off at the 30 seconds walk/30 seconds jog level, so this is all good.

(Y'all get over there and register for the AIDS Walk/Run now!!)

Good going, Chuck! 

I put on only a pound over the holidays, but it's coming off ever so slowly.  Weight's a bitch.

You're welcome, Katherine!

I've downloaded a great FREE! app on to my android smart phone - I would think it will be available on the iphone too.

My fitness pal

It has a website too at www.myfitnesspal.com

You can record what you eat and how many calories it has and what exercise youve done and how many calaroies youve burnt (it works it all out for you) and then it tells you your aim of calories to lose (or remain steady or gain) x amount of lbs per week.

Its really good!

Scale says I lost two more pounds today!    Down to 217,  8 pounds in 8 days.

Only 1 pound, my first week on WW. I thought I was doing better than that. Maybe the new points system is TOO easy.

Katherine, I hope your body hasn't decided that there's a famine and it needs to conserve all its calories! You might try upping the exercise a notch to get your metabolism going. Although with all the snow shoveling you would think it would be on high already!

Way to go Chuck, you certainly have this fat smash thing covered!! You should be ready for Stage 2 pretty soon, right?
