Weigh-In Wednesday-Shrink Into Summer Week # 5

[ 98 ] 04/29/2009 |

shrinkintosummer-11

Hello, Sisters and Brothers!! You read that right, we are in Week 5 of the Shrink Into Summer challenge!  Only 3 weeks left!  And can you believe that it’s almost May?  Where did April go?  How are you doing this challenge?  We want to hear from you!

Here are the rules:  First, go weigh-in.  You are not allowed to throw your scales if you had a bad week.  I know you’d like to, but it happens to all of us!  I promise.  If you had a good week, you are allowed to kiss your scales if you choose.   Or maybe do a happy dance!  Next, go blog.  We want to know how your week went, so we can leave you some comment love!  Finally, leave us your link!  Simple, right?

And do you know what simple gives you?  A chance to win this week‘s weigh-in giveaway!  The sponsor of this week’s fabulous prize is Steph!  A randomly selected winner will be chosen from those who weigh-in and leave a comment by 11:59pm Pacific time!  Good luck to all!

Also, have you seen our new mini-challenge?  Dairy is so important to having good nutrition.  Did you read all of the healthy benefits from making sure you get enough dairy everyday?  Three servings are recommended each day, so are you getting enough?

One last thing, are you still shredding?  We’re onto Level 3 of the 30 Day Shred!  Are you on Level 3 with us?  If not, where are you?  Does anyone else hate the Superman move as much as I do? (I know you like the Superman move, Lisa!)  Have you fallen off the Shred wagon?  No worries, just hop back on it!

Okay, that is all.  Have a fabulous Weigh-In Wednesday, everyone!!

About april: I'm a brand new cyclist! In just a few short months, the sport has reminded me that it's all about the journey, and I need to enjoy the ride. I live with my two dogs and two birds, and love to spoil my nephew. Oh yeah, and I'm 32. View author profile.

    I lost 5lbs…woohoo! I haven't blogged it yet because my hubby just got back from England; will try to tomorrow, but had to share really quickly. Maybe he should go out of town more often(just kidding!)

  • Kelly

    I do weigh in Mondays… might have to switch to Wednesdays – but I took off 8 lbs last week! It's amazing how it feels to be 8 lbs lighter! I'm doing a lot of unconventional exercise – dancing it off, hiking it off, classes at work, walking instead of driving for errands… there are so many things to do other than the dreaded treadmill :)

    Started 4/1 at 183
    Last week 179
    this week 178

    Going down, which is good, not as much as I would like especially after watching Biggest Loser last night, 11 lbs in a week people, my god.

    Anyway, wrote a blog about how work is killing me, Check it out, may be someone out there who has the same schedule as me and still gets in the workouts, help!!!

    Jen – I am sure it's got to be tough with the deadlines and long work days! The weight is coming off though – so you've got to be doing something right! Good job, girl!

  • Lissa_ShrinkingJeans

    We will have something wonderful in store after this challenge, but feel free to join in any time! Everyone is at different spots, I haven't Shredded the last 5 days myself due to injury-type stuff, but I may just do it all again after this 30 days! Just shoot me an email if you would like to join us – melissa@shrinkingjeans.net

  • http://mylifeatthirty.blogspot.com April

    That's a great loss! Don't forget those folks on BL are working out at least 8 hours a day! It's their job! We all could lose that much in a week if we worked out that much!

    Keep up the great work!

  • http://mylifeatthirty.blogspot.com April

    Great job!

    I know, right? Level 3 = hard!

    Oh no, I missed Wed Weigh in! Oh well. I will still post it.

    I was down 3.4 lbs my first week of shredding. I actually only shredded 5 of 7 days though. This week I haven't been able to be so committed so I fear my next weigh. Stayin postive though!

    I don't blog about it just yet because I do better when my family doesn't know I'm trying to lose! lol

  • http://swanvalleytammi.blogspot.com ValleyGirl

    Careful! Relationships like that are dangerous!! ;)

    You maybe didn't work “hard enough” for a loss this week, but I'm sure there have been weeks when you worked a lot harder and were disappointed that the results weren't better ~ you're just getting your dues on a delay!! Keep up the great work.

    Now, step awa-a-y from the Cheetos…

  • http://swanvalleytammi.blogspot.com ValleyGirl

    That's INCREDIBLE results in a short time!! Keep up the great work!

  • http://swanvalleytammi.blogspot.com ValleyGirl

    Woo-hoo!!! Not much feels better than an inch off the waist!! AWESOME! Keep up the great work!

  • Sittaholic

    Sorry I didn't get over here to comment, but I did weigh it — I was up this week (which, hello the 10K made me gain???) but I started my period today so I'm thinking I'll blame Aunt Flo. Just keep on keepin on!

    Ok here's my dilemma…maybe someone can help me out. I'm a medical student, which equates to the fact that i sit inside my room ALL day and study seven days a week. I'm too tired to cook and I don't have the time either… I'm broke from all my medical school loans so I can't exactly “hire” someone to make me healthy meals or go to fancy places like Panera everyday. I'm only able to go grocery shopping once every two weeks because i have classes six days a week and tons to study on the seventh day too. And i get hungry frequently since I cannot stress how much studying i do and that makes me hungry. I have a long family history of diabetes so i'm afraid if I don't start eating healthier I have a very high chance of getting it. Please help.
