Does this.mean I can't email everyone a million times a day??

Weigh In

kill me now.

146


My goal is to get back to 140, where I was when I finished the last contest from work.  I don't expect to do much more unless things ease up around here and that doesn't appear to be in the very near future.  I'll take the 6 lbs for 20 bucks. And my true focus will come once things are settled.  As far as the rest of you, GIVE IT HELL!!!!   :-)

Sarah, I sent my 'entry fee' yesterday. And thanks for doing stats. 

The Winner is Nick

Nick won!! Losing a total of 15 lbs. I'll post the numbers when I get to work.

His 'winnings' can be sent to my house. He knows where to find me. ;-)

Hi Guys!!

Can everyone please post their weights? Nick lost 15 pounds and he's really excited. He's hoping he's ''the winner'' but more importantly, he's really happy with what he's started!!!!

Jake

142 :-O ... and I have 'my friend' which means I could weigh more next week. Yeah, my body does exactly the friggin' opposite of what it's supposed to.

Ugh.

Jake's Weigh In

140 and I just don't give a crap.

Jake

140 :-/ I'd say "WTF???", but I really can't worry too much. I was very active this week. Dakota and I walked nearly every morning this week and at night we would go out on the tennis court and hit some tennis balls.(me and the kids, not Dakota) The fact that my weight hasn't changed is a little upsetting. However, I showed both Michelle and Annie yesterday, that I could easily pull down my jeans without unzipping them. (I'm trying to figure out why michelle nearly went into shock and annie barely blinked an eye)

I know it's just a number and I know I'm clearly getting in better shape but being stuck at 140 when I know I should easily be less is a little discouraging. The fact that I can walk/jog with Dakota about 2 miles in the AM and still go out on the tennis court for an hour an a half in the PM is pretty encouraging. It sure beats sitting.

I told Annie, I'm not going to stop what I'm doing. Sooner or later, it's all just going to 'melt' off. I truly believe that. I just wish it was melting....even slowly. I hate 'stuck'

Jake's Weigh In

140.

Wrong direction.... grrrrr.... but really I'm ok with it. It's not where I want to be nor was I intending to gain weight but it's all good. My sleep is screwed up (last night was purely my own fault) and I know until I get back on track with that, I'm not going to be too motivated otherwise. Heck, we've used our tennis rackets a couple of times this week and also the jump rope. The weight may not be coming off, but my heart & lungs are getting stronger and my legs & arms are moving more. AND I got to be with my kids alot this week because of it. I'll take the additional pound if it means I get to spend hours with my kids having fun. I'm pretty sure all the laughing we do is tightening up my ab muscles anyway. :-)

I do however have my suspicions about Annie. I think she keeps plying me with food so she can beat me but more so I can't borrow (steal) her dresses any more. LMAO

Great job everyone.

Thank you Sarah

"But if we get on the treadmill together, there's two things: Either you're getting off first, or I'm gonna die. It's really that simple."......Will Smith

Oh dear, you should ask my kids what their mother is like. LMAO

Anyway, I had a horrible day yesterday (not with food but emotionally) and when I read this, I grabbed my kids and daughter's b/f and I bought us all (cheap) tennis rackets and balls, then went to volley some balls. I don't care if we can't play tennis, what I care about is that we moved our butts for well over an hour... then came home and we all jumped rope.

Thanks Sarah for finding things that constantly motivate me.

Jake's 1st Weigh In

138

I would have preferred more but I lost focus after Tuesday morning. I'm not sure why but my sleep pattern suddenly got all screwed up. I need to fix that. It's key for me in order to make this work. Here's hoping for a better week 2!!!

Monday/Tuesday AM

Monday was ok for me. I had soup instead of lunch that the guys had. I still ate with them, which is the best part anyway. Split Pea for me. That's the first change I'll be making. Lunch choices. For now, it will probably be soup that's high in fiber and veggie servings and a yogurt for an afternoon snack. I think my eating has always been pretty moderate anyway so it's once again getting my body moving and keeping it moving.

Tuesday AM - Ms. Dakota and I went for our 2 mile walk.

My lungs have been feeling better. Maybe I'm opening them up?? Anyway, I'm curious to see what happens after I work downtown all day today. I haven't been there in a week and this is the best my lungs have felt in a long time.

Day 1

Ok.... I know I'm committed to this thing when:

• Goober disturbs my Saturday morning sleep at 5:20 AM
• I don't flip out
• I put on my sweat pants and my sneakers (instead of punting Goober)
• I grab Ms. Dakota and take her for a 2 mile walk at 5:45 am on my day off (instead of punting Goober)
