Improvise

So Keith and I ran up to the store tonight to buy some fireworks and decided just to grab a freezer meal for dinner since it was getting quite late. We grabbed some orange chicken which I thought was a low fat meal but on further inspection (at home) realized I'd looked at the package wrong and that 1C of the prepared meal was 7 points. So deciding 7 points was a little high for dinner I grabbed a huge bag of frozen veggies and mixed it into the dinner to cut the points to 5. I can live with that.

week 1

Start weight 315
end of week 1 weight 309.8
5.2 weight loss.

weekly score 604.8

This week as far as the MOGO goes, was not too bad for me. Unfortunately I did not post a goal oriented good habit forming thing. . .so I missed out on an extra 60 points for that. . .My exercise is going good. . .my food is going good. . .I cant really stop talking shit (even to my own teammate!), so my communication is going good. I've really enjoyed my happy points. . .I miss playing my guitar. . .but hopefully that'll change soon. . . and my water is easy. . usually have it mostly done by 10 am.

My goal/ good habit thingy will be to get out into the field for atleast an hour or 2 to get to know my pumper runs better. . . .I've had a hard time to get out into the field lately, but that is my goal thingy. . .

Hope everyone is doing okay with thier game . . .and keep up the good work peeps.

Week 1

Heres my scores for the first week. Due to Cafe Rio's excellent chicken salad I might not make weigh-in next week. I have a feeling my butt just grew a foot and a half but we'll give it a shot.

Starting weight: 226.6
Ending weight: 224.2
Score: 605

Better late than never

Well here is my post a week late :( guess I dont get points for blogging on time this week..... My habit that I'm working on is to not yell at my kids (wish me luck haha). Starti ng weight for this round was 151.6. I will be posting again tomorrow :)

super late. . .for team chavez . . .

I am posting this to get everyone on the same page. I started this competition lower in weight than last GO. starting weight 315. im doing a fitness goal, where i am going to power lift weights atleast 3 times a week on top of my daily 30 mins of exercise. lifting weights generally doesn't promote weight loss .. . .especially while your gaining muscle , but im hopeful that with my diet and exercise i will lose some weight as well.

Progress

I stepped on the scale today and for the first time since the last game found i'd lost some weight. I love that feeling. Also, I love to look in the mirror and see that my clothes fit better, so awesome.
However, I found myself cooking eggplant for the first time in my life tonight and I don't know quite how I feel about it yet. There are ups and downs to everything in life but eggplant may just be one of those things I just can't handle. We shall see after dinner. Wish us luck that we don't die or turn purple.

better late than never..

My starting weight is 320.6

I'm up 4ish lbs from the last time we played.

Not as bad as I thought it would be.

My habit/goal whatever we are calling it now is for me to be in bed by 11. This will be a big change from 1 or 2 and will hopefully help me get up earlier and with more energy so I can get in my exercise.

Thats it. Sorry to my wife now for all of the lost points later.

Sucky

Starting weight: 226.6
Totally sucky that I've gained 6 lbs since last game but I'm going to try and make this game count. This cold is totally kicking my butt and i'm finding it hard to excercise and find motivation when I can't breathe and moving my head at all gives me a splitting headache but I'm hoping the better I get the better my score will get. Here's to hoping.

GO our way.

Starting weight - 275.4

Two perfect days so far. Not a whole lot to say tonight, except, BRING IT. Have a good week everyone. Night.

coo coo ca choo

Official weigh in 265.4, pretty lame considering thats up 15 lbs since the last game ended and damn near 30 from my super lowest.

Looking forward to getting some results.

My habit is going to be getting up earlier. I need to work on getting my ass outta bed a little more than 19 minutes before I have to be at work.

Pretty encouraging to start off the week with a 1.8 lb loss in the first day. But not really saying much for my food choices leading up to the start of the game.

Not a lot to say, freaking tired.
