**OFFICIAL** Jan 1st - April 1st [2013] Weight Loss Thread/Competition

[cnh57811]

Who gives a sheet about water weight?Seriously, we are not on the biggest loser and nobody is falling below the yellow line. Just execute whatever workout routine and diet you are on to the best of your ability and let things work themselves out. *

That is all....

(no hate....just sayin)

[caldave28]

Anyone have tips for the weight in? I'm drinking soo much water and dont want it to show on my weigh in

Get in the sauna ASAP - like friday afternoon. Get out Sunday morning, dry off, weigh in.

[caldave28]

Ya, I agree. There is absolutely no reason to push the number down as much as possible, it is the first weigh - in out of many MANY more to come. That being said, there is something to say for pushing the number down to increase motivation, thus making it easier to stick to your diet.

14 total weigh-ins if you include the 1st of January.

[Bluesmoker]

Anyone anxious for upcoming events during the competition that you know is gonna fuark your numbers? My bday is the 18th and we are going out to a club in SF. Going to be hard to not consume 1 billion drinks.

my Bday is on the 20th dude i know how you feel, saying that 22 isnt really a big birthday and i have a habit of destroying my momentum if i decide to cheat so i think if i go easy especially on my birthday i can look back and think "you sacrificed a guaranteed good night and enough free drinks to flood a small welsh village for this dont stop now" and i suppose it will be good not to throw up in the washing basket again like on my 21st....


had a great leg workout today i have a feeling tommorow is going to hurt as i havent done legs properly in a while.

Day 4 already. Don't let it go to waste!

Some words of encouragement from a legend.

Wow that is awesome I watched it like 10x's

[caldave28]

Missed lunch today - Have one dinner? Have two dinners? or Have one dinner and desert?

[mikegt87]

Same here. I've been doing keto since 10/1/2012 and I love it. I took a short break around Christmas and couldn't wait to start up again.

- Appetite control
- No cravings
- Low water weight
- More alert and awake
- Bacon

ya exactly. I do eat enough carbs to keep me goin in the gym.. usually 40-60 per day and do a refeed once every two weeks so it works out for me. Maybe I'm over complicating things I dont know but its working.

You missed a meal? I try to do that on the daily. Less calories one day is not going to harm you. You're trying to lose weight, right? It will only help.

[triddle2]

When do we REFEED!!!

[Vaylor]

When do we REFEED!!!

When you want to.

Any 'tricks' to drop weight for a weigh in will only work for one week's weigh in anyway. Drop all the water weight you want on Saturday for your Sunday weigh in...if you lose 5 lbs because of it then that's great (I guess) if it helps motivate you. But you won't be able to pull that same trick each week.

Just weigh yourself at the same time weekly. Like others have already said, do it when you wake up, right after using the bathroom. There may not be a 'best' time to weigh in, but that way you'll be consistent each week.

Lol everyone pulling out all the stops to get a low weight... ON THE 1ST WEIGH-IN lol

It's a marathon not a sprint people!

Do what works mang!

[Kelekin]

So to those that use MyFitnessPal - perhaps we should have a group share of usernames and add each other to hold everyone accountable. Oh what, your calorie goal was 2200 but you ate 3500? There's someone to support you and slap you on the wrist. You stopped logging info and look like you're going to give up? Nope.

One of the most helpful tools on weight loss is having people hold you accountable. So for the fatties here, maybe it makes sense to do it.

Feel free to add me, anyway - my username is Kelekin.

I'm about to head to the gym, but I created a group on there for the competition. I sent invites to those that posted their usernames here already.

love the dog!

Ha! Thanks....kind of a sad story...had to give him to a relative. He was not doing well with our 9mo old twins now that they are crawling around. He showed my son his teeth. Luckily, I was right there and that f'n dog had no idea what **** storm hit him in about .0001 seconds. Anyway, he's doing great with my sister-in-law. Great dog, but just not great with little ones

that's a bummer, still sry to bring up the sore subject.

[mikegt87]

Well today I had a kick arse leg and core workout. Woke up with a slight touch of the flu though.. So far it hasn't affected me too much other than a sore throat. Really hopin it stays that way.

No, no. It's all good. In the end, it worked out for the better. The dog is doing great (he gets away with everything with my sister-in-law) and our little ones are safe.

If you see me not logging food...it's because I'm cheating and if I don't enter the food into mfp then the cals don't really count!

[lucksterx]

Damn, I must be the only FatSecret user. I really don't like the MFP interface for some reason.
