1 day to LIW Biggest loser

Ok girls...one day to go.....I have been thinking about how this could work. I think it is soooo AWESOME that it looks like there is going to be a lot of girls participating....which is FANTANSTIC.....but it might be hard for me to follow everyone and keep all the info in one post......so what do you girls think this.

Everyone post what they want to post on week 1. IE what their plans are for a healthier new year or their actual weight...whatever you feel comfortable with. Then on Week 2 just edit that post with your updated info. Then just keep editing that post each week.

For example,

Week 1...127.6 lbs
Week 2...125.4 lbs

or

Week 1. Weighed myself and now have a base line for what I need to do.
Week 2. Last week I went to the gym and didn't eat garbage...looking for to doing the same next week.
Week 3. What a horrible week...had b-day parties, ate and drank too much. Need to get back on track.

Etc..

Just make sure you balance Cat-fruit is actually very high in sugar so if its all you're eating, not the best for you and the citric acid messes with your stomach lining if nothign else is in there. Try eating a few egg whites with spinach, garlic and onions in it. Gives some flavor and the protein will do you well. I like throwing hot sauce on mine.

Re: 1 day to LIW Biggest loser

I'm excited about this. My team at my old company was all on WW so it was easy to stay on track. We ate healthy all week and then ordered out once a week but made sure we all ordered healthy food. We supported one another. At my new company, we order out everyday and someone's always bringing junk in. And we have cake for every darn bday. I lost 30 lbs before the wedding in 6 months so I hope I can do it again. I think this will help. We should also (either in the thread we're starting or a separate thread) post yummy healthy recipes so we can help one another cook better. I do WW online so I get tons of recipes on there.

Seriously this why I'm fat the food that is good is somehow bad I get so confused so i just go to the drive thru. i am the pickiest eater ever and don't eat eggs. I am going shopping tonight to pick up some porridge I love that it lines the stomach for the day.

I shouldn't even start this weight loss goal until 3 weeks from now anyway. I am going on vacation in less than a week and honestly I am going to eat my face off and drink my legs off

LOL i have to agree with you--on vacation its hard to stay on track simply because you're not in your home so cant control food as well.

Porridge is good I like crap whats the name of the brand..somethign irish oatmeal? its really good. You can slice up a small banana and toss it in or a handful of bluberries. Fruit is good for you, but you need balance. Too many people think eating flavored yogurt and then a bowlful of fruit is great and its not. Its ok, but a lot of meaningless sugar carbs in there. better to ahve small servings of fruit and then a balance of protein and carbs.

I have some really good lower carb recipes (I dont believe in NO carbs-thats just crap. You need a lil bit of everything) and low fat ones. I like the idea Jenn had of postin recipes. Maybe we can have a Spinnoff thread for recipes and another for just plain old support and excercise regimines.

Re: 1 day to LIW Biggest loser

This sounds great!! A co-worker and I just agreed that starting Monday we are starting hard-core again! I too lost a lot of weight before the wedding and I don't want to get back up to that weight ever again!!

Re: 1 day to LIW Biggest loser

It is a great idea. I like the second option better of saying got my baseline weight and then the second week saying what we did and if any weight was lost.

Each person is going to have one posting that they will update on a weekly basis....

HTH.

Thanks!
