Well.I'm not sure how this happened.
I'm, ummm....
- remember to make sure my stomach growls at least twice a day
llllllllll (of 14) - complete week 3 of the 100/200/200 challenge (done)
- at least 3 walks or 30-minute workouts lll (all walks again)
The previous week, I got in twice as many walks as my goal because hubby was home all week. This week, I barely got in my goal number because not only was hubby gone basically the entire time, but I had my oldest daughter home all week due to illness, so I couldn't even go on kindergarten days. :(
My biggest victory this week ~ by FAR ~ was in the snacking department, though portion control at mealtimes was a close second. I binged last Tuesday night, but other than that, I snacked only ONCE this past week! And all I had that night was a peanut butter & honey tortilla roll-up (made w/a large whole wheat tortilla). That's IT!! The ONLY evening snack in the last SEVEN days!!!! Needless to say, I'm pretty happy with the results. So happy, in fact, I may be tempted to try that strategy again! ;)
Unfortunately, I realized this morning was the final weigh-in for this challenge and while 3 lbs in one week is almost HALF my entire goal this time 'round, I actually lost just under half my 8-lb goal. Not too happy about that, but at least I'm still headed in the right direction ~ and finally workin' up some steam, too!!

excellent!! :) you did good at meeting your 3 goals (despite challenges). hopefully this loss will give you the motivation to keep up the hard work!
Tammi, I say take each victory as they come. You're doing a good job. Hugs.
You are making great progress! 3 pounds in one week is amazing and lucky for us a new challenge is starting next week!
Doesn't it feel great to be back on track. Keep that feeling in mind when you start to feel tempted by the snackies! Great job!
Awesome job!! Love your cartoon!! I may steal it and post it on my fridge and pantry and snack cabinet!!
I know how you lost 3 lbs - the no snacking and good portion control! Way to go!!
yes, you should be proud! and obviously something is working! i'd also call that late night snack a snack worth having if you're gonna have one! that's one of our staples in our house, pb, honey on a whole wheat waffle! yum! the kids love that! anyhoo, can't wait to see you at the next challenge, hope you're stickin around girl, we gotta stick together here!
Love the cartoon! I may have to steal that :) Great job on the loss this week. One of the gals said last week that our bodies really are in charge. We don't know how they are going to react to what we are changing, but something is definitely working for you. Keep up the good work!
Tammi, you did an amazing job!! Way to go on the 3 pound loss! WOOT!
It's awesome to look back and figure out what worked! By not snacking you were able to lose a great deal, so it just goes to show you that all that snacking was adding up to a lot of extra calories. Keep up the amazing work and get ready for the next challenge at the Sisterhood! It's going to be SO FUN!!!
You are making huge strides...keep it up!
Three pounds is great! I'm proud of you!
Right on, Tammi!! That evening snacking is a killer, which is why I try to avoid it at all costs. You achieved a HUGE accomplishment this week, and I hope you continue seeing these good results!
