Weight: I gained 1 pound for an adjusted total of 55 pounds lost. I am really hoping that this gain is from muscle built now that I am strength training. It is disappointing to see a gain when you have had a good week.
Nutrition: I made healthy choices when I went out and allowed myself to have some popcorn (no butter) and a little bit of chocolate at the movie theater. I had some protein shakes, lots of salads and frozen yogurt when I was out (YUM!)
Exercise: I went to the gym three times this week and even went at night which is unheard of for me! It was actually kind of nice after a day home cleaning and cooking with a toddler to get out and get some me time. The gym was pretty empty and calm. I found an awesome weight training app and used it to do some free weights at home twice and used the weight machines once at the gym. I also continued on with the plank challenge. During the week I did tons of walking and kept my first place spot on my fitbit friends list. As soon as my runner friend took my first place spot I got motivated to go to the gym and get back to first place! :)
Last Weeks Goals:
Go to the gym or do an exercise DVD at least 3 times - GOAL MET
Weight Machines or Toning DVD 3 times - GOAL MET
Continue Plank Challenge - GOAL MET
Make healthy choices when eating out. - GOAL MET

You are so on-track and I'm sure that you are getting closer to your long-term goals. Congratulations on your most recent achievements. Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteGreat Job! you are motivation for me lol. I am pregnant with my second and I hope to do better with weight loss than I did after my first one. Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteGreat job! Sounds like you are hitting your goals easier and easier as you gain more energy. Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteNice job! You are such an awesome journey! Hitting the gym 3 times has been a challenge for me lately.. i need to get my head back on straight and go.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you have a great plan and are sticking to it. I have 3 kids and I know how hard it can be to lose that weight, congrats! :)
ReplyDeleteYou are doing a great job on your weight loss. It's ok to gain a few pounds every now and then as our body needs to normalize too.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't sweat the weight gain as long as your overall trend is down. You're doing a great job!
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome that you are meeting all your goals. Gaining one pound is really nothing if you are still losing over all. I have been working out a little more this week as well. Great job!
ReplyDeleteremember muscle weighs more than fat. Base it on how your clothes fit:)
ReplyDeleteWay to go! You probably are gaining muscle since you are strength training.
ReplyDeleteYou're definitely having a terrific week! Woohoo for getting some workout time in.
ReplyDeletegreat job, I really need to start exercising!
ReplyDeleteInterested in checking out your thoughts on yoga! It's excellent for your core!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on having a good week :)

Keep up the great work! We love hearing your progress!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. I am sure the small weight gain has to do with muscle vs fat since you are weight training. Since you are doing resistence and weights, maybe stop watching the scale and instead watch your inches.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your success! Doesn't it fell good?

I used to love going to the gym on off times. I felt more comfortable to "ugly sweat" without judging eyes :)
ReplyDeleteChasing a toddler some days can be more of a work out than getting it at the gym!
It is nice that you are able to stay on track. Good luck with your weight loss journey.
ReplyDeleteWow! It's nice that you're really consistent in keeping track of your weight loss goals. How about if you just stayed at home and do exercises instead of going to the gym? Would it make a difference, you think?
ReplyDeleteit's so good that you are keeping a track of all those things.. even I'm trying to lose weight and I take a selfie per day before leaving for workout, so I can look back and know how much difference did it actually make.. good luck..
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about the weight gain. You are sticking to the goals and you are feeling good that is what matters.
ReplyDeleteWay to go! You have some great healthy recipes too
ReplyDeleteGreat job! I started this week, I have been doing exercises with my Wii - Zumba and Fitness. Feels so good to exercise and eat well doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteWay to go!! I just finished a 10 week program myself so I know how much hard work goes into getting fit!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on achieving this goal. It is not easy and you may have ups and downs. Just keep going and you will get there.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!1 You may have ups and downs but eventually you will get there. It is not easy and it can be a struggle but take it one day at a time.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! You're doing really well!
ReplyDeleteYour post really inspires me to be healthier this week! Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteYou're doing awesome.. I can't make a lot of excuses not to go to the gym, as we have a gym in our spare building in the backyard. It has everything a normal gym does, it's nice to have an escape away from the kids a bit. I like to get in 1hr a day for 5 days a week. After I get that down, I'm doing 2hrs for 5 days a week.
ReplyDeleteCongrats, keep up the GREAT work!
ReplyDeletevery nice! congrats! it is indeed a "me time" when you go to the gym! that's when i notice too that i have neighbors and there are people living in our condo haha weird but true. good luck hope for the best!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have great goals for next week. Congrats on meeting all of this week's goals.
ReplyDeleteYou are doing great!! Keep up the hard work!
ReplyDeleteDon't freak out girl because of the 1 kilo weight gain. I think it's from the muscle gain since you're doing a strength training now. Keep it up and don't think of the gain as a big deal.
ReplyDeletecongrats on such amazing progress, and muscle weighs more than fat so dont stress!
