WW Fit - Check in

My dress fits perfectly right now so I'm kind of eating just whatever. I'm not going to gain weight in 2 weeks. I mean I'm not eating entire pizzas or anything, but if I want a Philly soft pretzel at lunch, I'm going to eat one. I've been doing some arm workouts but really, not much is going to change in 2 weeks. I'm really more concerned with my tan lines lol. Oops

That seems like a good place to be in! Arm workouts are my second favorite type of workout, lol

I work in an office full of women who bake things constantly - today it was cherry pie, the other day it was bear claw donuts. I mean I only eat about 1200 calories a day but the added sugar and fat is not good.

I went home last week and blew my diet but hey thats what vacation is for. I've been back on weight watchers and doing well for two days now so hopefully it will reverse whatever damage I did for those 3 days at home.

GrayCatVintage - that sounds terrible, but awesome at the same time, lol

Allysia - way to get back on track!

This summer has been horrible for my weight lol! I gained back 7 of the 20lbs that I lost. But I had a fantastic summer of cocktails and lake living.

I've started back to the gym though and am walking during lunches now! I'm going to start participating in these check ins because I have a month to the wedding, and I really want to try to get back to where I was in June (even though the seamstress said not to lose any.... hmmmm).

Ugh, going dress shopping this weekend. I typically workout 2-3 times a week. This week, I've fallen off the wagon . Next week is a new week, right?

I've been doing okay - could have done better this weekend but still didn't do too horrible. Except for the 1,450 calorie Big Red Sandwich I had at Ale House this weekend - along with a few beers.

Also - Thanks a ton, Val! I thought of you and your M&M obsession earlier this week - I had a horrible craving and I was blaming you and your Pumpkin Spice Latte M&M post!

Hey All - So far, so good! I've been sticking to the Couch to 5K program, and it has been great! I am almost up to 2 miles, and I think I will be there by Friday! I've been feeling my body get stronger, but I am frusturated that I haven't been losing weight, but my ring has been easier to get on/off for the last few days, so I think I'm starting to lose inches .

@VMDIZZLE same goes for oreos. Who decides a serving size? What kind of monster can eat 2 oreos and walk away.

I had my shower and fantasy draft this weekend. We ate and drank like crazy but Monday my daughter and I had the stomach bug that's going around. I broke even, didn't lose, didn't gain, I'll take it!

I feel ya! I bought my dress at the end of my training for a half marathon so I was at my thinnest. Now I'm trying to keep up with that even though I normally weigh about 5lbs more. Guess I'll have to sign up for another!

LMac - it's just a general thread for us to share our successes/frustrations with our fitness and nutrition goals and try to keep each other accountable We're happy to have you!

VM - step away from the M&Ms lol!

@Jennifer - Totally get you there. I cannot just eat one or two of ANYTHING lol

I just got that notification on my WW checklist to start my fitness and eating routines (I know that means I'm not really checking in since I haven't started...). I have to say I've struggled with this kind of thing a lot over the years, but I am really determined to lose at least 10 pounds. I'm really short, 5'0'', and MFP tells me I can only healthily lose about 0.5 lb a week. And that's if I eat only 1200 calories. Bleh.

I wouldn't worry about ice cream on occasion. Not saying really from my own experience, but, by numbers, as long as you didn't eat 3,500 calories in ice cream over your daily limit it won't matter (that'd be a lot of ice cream lol). You'll get it all together, but I am sure your FH will think you look amazing in your boudoir photos either way.

I've totally fallen off the food/nutrition wagon. Even though I've been eating salads and such, eating them at restaurants is almost as bad as getting a burger. Ugh, why is it so hard to stick to a weight loss plan? I know what I need to do, but somehow I just can't do it. /frustrated

Yeah...I was doing so well in the spring when I had my shower, boudoir shoot and dress fitting all in the same weekend. Since then though I've been eating a lot of junk (delicious, delicious junk).

@Nicki - Thank you It is definitely an ongoing struggle for me as well. I would definitely say 10 pounds is doable by next August!

@Rachael - Right there with ya. All weekend when I was eating junk, I kept thinking about how I shouldn't be doing that if I want to reach my goals...I still worked out, but I would get there a lot faster if I would stop eating junk!

I did terribly this past weekend even though I worked out every day. This weekend will be just as bad without the ability to work out since I'm out of town for my mom's 60th. At least I'll have 4 days back on track in between..

I realized I was under eating so I had to step up and try and eat more. The only problem is I get full easily since I started this diet and excersize program.

To help, I bought women's one a day pills and am trying to stay under my colorie budget, but not too far under.

I'll weight myself in 3 weeks and see how things are progressing. It's only been 2 weeks so far.

I bought ice cream bon-bons from Trader Joe's last week and was eating them like a piggy on the couch. I ate 6 servings in one sitting, and the sad part is, I wanted more!
