Idea
I think we should start a section where we can share healthy recipes. I have several that I like, and I definitely want some of the ones Ryan's been cooking up lately.
How do we make that happen, Superman?
MKIA Week 7
Previous Weight: 175
Current Weight: 175
Lost this week: 0 lbs
Total: 4 lbs
No weight loss, but again--a very long and junk-food-filled weekend.
It probably would've been worse, but I worked out TWICE since then. Yep, that's right--two times. Sunday morning after whooping it up with my baby brother and sis, and again last night, when I joined the local gym. There's a Snap Fitness in town, plus one right across from where I work. It's a month-to-month contract, and with health insurance kicking in, it will only cost us about $14 a month. I have no reason not to give it a shot.
Counting this week's workouts, that's a whole two for the month of October so far. Hey, it's a start. :)

A couple more things...
Just a few things to put in the "win" column:
- Let's hear it for Ms Know-it-All, who I know not only made time to work out this week, but did it after a very late night.
- Between the two of us, we've apparently guilt-tripped Mel into going back to the gym.
Yay! I'm a force for good in the world!
Ryan - Week 41
Current Weight: 221 lbs
Change: 0 lbs lost
Total: 139 lbs lost
I went down to Balaton this weekend, see my folks and sisters. I had a lot of fun, but I also did a lot more snacking than I have in a while. Consequently, I'm holding steady at 221 this week. No loss, but at least no gain either.
I figured this would happen eventually, but it's still a wee bit disappointing. Oh well, the important thing is, I got back onto my diet first thing Monday morning.
And no, Mom, I don't blame you for it. Nobody forced me to eat the brownie (or the cookies, or the muffin). I chose to.
And my picture looks really goofy this week, for some reason.

Ms Know-It-All Week 6
Previous Weight: 175.5
Current Weight: 175
Lost this week: .5 lbs
Total: 4 lbs
Yeah, yeah. I forgot to weigh in. My brother the expert's going to be spending the weekend with me, so maybe his discipline and healthy habits will inspire me--or otherwise he'll just be kicking my butt all weekend.

Ryan - Week 40
Current Weight: 221 lbs
Change: 3 lbs lost
Total: 139 lbs lost
Melissa asked last week what I'm going to do once I reach my goal weight. I'm really not sure. As I approach 200lbs, my trainer has said he's going to switch the workouts to focus more on muscle building than weight loss, and he's already starting to do that a little. I also remember talking with someone, way back in February, who said I should find an activity to keep me, well, active once I hit my goal. I'm open to suggestions, people.

Ms. Know-It-All's Week Five
Previous Weight: 175.5
Current Weight: 175.5
Lost this week: 0 lbs
Total: 3.5 lbs
Can't say that I'm all that surprised--I had a busy social weekend, lots of bad food and alcohol. At least I didn't gain any weight. I'll try harder for next week.

Ryan - Week 39
Current Weight: 224 lbs
Change: 2 lbs lost
Total: 136 lbs lost
I'm beginning to see these pictures, and I guess myself, differently. Instead of looking at the picture and seeing a thinner Ryan, I'm starting to see just a thin Ryan. I'm not sure when I made that transition, but I like it.

Is there a bloating allowance on this blog?
Cripes, I was more active this week than usual--went walking around St. John's (carrying a 23-lb child part of the way), spent 20 minutes crawling around playground tunnels at McDonald's trying to find my 23-lb child, and went for a walk/jog (I really did jog!) to the park while pushing two kids in a stroller. And all to no avail.
Grrr...to use the words of Lilliana, "I'm fwustrated."
