    party at my blog!! full of calorie/point free foods!

    i'd like to take this moment to thank the academy for all your support. i could have never made it here without you! *sniffle* i'd also like to thank my mother, for letting me exercise without her so that she would quit holding me back.

    to the makers for fiber one bars, for making such a delicious snack

    *hears music*

    but i'm not done yet…

  • AngelaCPA

    I gained last week and so was ashamed to check in (was injured and could not exercise). I started exercising again on Monday and have lost all I gained last week (2 lbs up and 2 lbs down)! So I'm back to 234 where I was at your first weigh in. Thanks for the inspiration!

  • Karissasmom

    I missed last week because of a vacation so my result is based on 2 weeks….down 3 lbs!!!! Yea!!!!

    No change since last week for me. I have a feeling these last 5 pounds are not going to come off so easily…

    I am down 1 pound this week, but I am on my third week of c25k and I can't believe I am running for 3 minutes straight. I know that doesn't sound like alot, and my son laughed at me and said – 3 minutes – anyone can run for 3 minutes…so i told him to get on the treadmill and let me see him do it – well, he went and hid in his roo,…So there

    Oh, *much* better this week. Down 1.8, so knocked off a little over half of the 3 lb gain from last week.

    Way to go on the challenge and on your C25K!

  • http://oppositelife.blogspot.com/ Pubsgal

    Girlfriend! You just did a duathlon! It'll be gone by next week, I'm sure of it.

  • http://oppositelife.blogspot.com/ Pubsgal

    Congrats!

  • http://oppositelife.blogspot.com/ Pubsgal

    No worries! We still have many weeks to go, and great job getting back on track!

  • lucidb

    This week? Better than last week, for sure!

  • BrookeF

    you're doing incredibly!! :) and i'd say most of us who run remember back in the “woohoo 3 minutes day” pretty soon you're gonna be running circles around him on your way to your first 5K

    The bad news is I totally skipped out on reporting my weight (or blogging) last week. The good news is I am down since I first weighed-in to join this challenge. I started at 153.5 and I’m currently at 152. That means 24 oz of food toward my “stash” for a local food bank at the end of the challenge. Not too shabby. Here's my post:

  • http://kcrules.wordpress.com/ Jennie

    I agree! Running is hard and it feels good when you reach those goals. Even if they seem small at first. Before you know it, you'll be running for 5 min, then 10 and on up! Way to go :-)

  • CRockwell

    I would LOVE to join your challenge! 2 months ago my start weight was 201 lbs (YIKES!) and after some health issues I started eating healthier and in those 2 months I've lost 21 pounds, I'm currently 180! In keeping with the timeline of the challenge, I was about 190 three weeks ago.

    I just started working out (the gym wasn't open yet) so I'm looking forward to continuing to see progress! My post is up already at http://myplaceinthecalisun.blogspot.com thank you!!!

  • Christy_TheSisterhood
  • http://thesassymama.blogspot.com Heather

    Sounds like you're back on the right track! Hang in there, you'll do great!

  • http://thesassymama.blogspot.com Heather

    Great work! I love it!

  • http://thesassymama.blogspot.com Heather

    c25k is amazing! Great job, you'll be running 30 minutes straight in no time (well, about 7 weeks :)

    I'm down .4 this week. I guess anything is better than a gain.

  • http://www.crazyadventuresinparenting.com/ LisaCrazyAdventuresinParenting

    Woo-fricken-hoo! Down .9 to 141.1!! Knockin on the door to the 130's, babay! HOLY CRAP!

  • thedailymel

    Well, I have definitely fallen behind in my EA Sports Active challenge. I ended up with a VERY nasty flu last week, so I wasn't able to work out. This week I'm finally feeling better, but have to work some very long hours (11-12 hour days), and I've just been too tired to workout.

    On the good news front, I was down 2.4 pounds at weigh-in this week. WOO HOO!!!!

  • marie_v

    I was out of town with no internet access last week, but am back in full force this week! I am up 2 lbs (158lbs), but that's ok. I didn't really exercise last week, and ate what I wanted with my family. Totally worth it. ;) I did convince my mom to join us!

  • marie_v

    You are adorable. :)

  • marie_v

    I'm around the same where I started to. It happens! Nice job losing it. Woohoo!

  • marie_v

    Nice job!

  • marie_v

    Every little bit helps!

  • marie_v

    You are kicking some serious ass, lady!

  • marie_v

    That's awesome! Building up your running stamina is haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard.

  • marie_v

    I'll double that WOO HOO!

  • SJs_April
  • Lisa_MellowCat

    down 4 pounds again, but seem to be stuck on a see-saw. excersising and not eating as much junk.

  • spbray

    I can't get my $#!& together to post when I'm supposed to! Sorry. Lost a pound this week. I'm at an even 180.

    http://ann-shesgonnablow.blogspot.com/2009/09/w

    I didn't get to do weigh in yesterday but I went today and found that I had lost what I had gained last week…so back to 199.9! 3 pounds lost this week!! Yay!!

  • http://www.alberts-family.blogspot.com/ danielle

    I stayed the same this week!!! and no matter how many times I have jumped on that scale first thing Wednesday mornings and have told myself… okay not blog about it before your son wakes up… it never seems to work out! I'm not sure what time it is where you live but it is 6:08a.m. here and I am just now getting a chance to update my results…. hubby and baby are both still sleeping before our crazy work day starts!!! Anyway, I am here and I will keep reporting…. but it may not be right on Wednesday… even though I think about it every Wednesday :)

    Good luck this week everyone :)

  • Bari_F

    Yah-it's Friday and I'm just getting around to posting. No blogging for a couple weeks-the first two weeks of school in my new job have been beyond crazy busy. My weight from Wednesday was 162.8, which I think is up 2.2 from a couple weeks ago. It sucks, but I'm trying not to beat myself up over it. I'm injured and can't run right now (or do any real cardio for that matter), and with my schedule I've only managed to do some strength training with youtube a couple times. Definitely not the level of workout I'm used to. I have to get back on track!

  • http://www.grayandbecca.com Becca Sanborn

    So I am SUPER late with this, but I stayed the same this week… which is not great, but not bad either!

  • http://www.alberts-family.blogspot.com/ danielle

    2 pound gain for me :(

    I am retaining water at the momment!!! Those pounds will be gone next week for sure!!!
