The Weekly Weigh-In

Today my team weighed in and our week 5 results were awesome. My team had a combined weight loss of 14.9 lbs this week. That is the most that we have lost since the first week. All together my team has lost 54.3 lbs since the beginning of the competition. I had a big loss this week too. I lost almost 4lbs. That brings me to a 5.84% total weight loss. I'm just a little over 1/3 of the way to my goal of losing 15% during the competition.

My boyfriend also had a big weight loss this week. He lost 4.1 lbs for a total weight loss of 4.45% of his starting weight. Since I'm at 5.84% I'm still beating him. Yay!

As for how well the co-worker I'm competing with is doing, I'll have to wait until the end of the week when everyone's results are posted. However I'm guess that I'm slightly ahead of her.

Daily Journal:

Today I made some progress towards my weekly goals of eating vegetables for 8 means. I ate a salad for lunch and had spinach and mushrooms with my dinner. I've also greatly reduced the amount of carbs I consume. I ate about 1600 calories. I didn't go to the gym today because my car is in the autoshop.
