SDtS Mission 101: Week 6

Sorry for my extremely slacking nature this weekend! Cookie baking tried to kill me! So I am getting this out a little late!

Week six was a bit of a victory as far as I am concerned. Of those that sent in their updates - many people were able to lose weight (over the holiday week!!), and those that gained kept it very in check! HUGE WIN for Mission 101!! You guys rock.

We are heading into our last month of the mission! Let's kick some ass!!

I do have one new participant to introduce! Mission 101 has gone International!!

Amazingly I’m down 0.5 pounds and I did manage 4 nights of 7 hours of sleep. (And I’ve got the Experience Life magazine open so I can read about how important it is that I sleep.)

Bry-Guy

MCS

•  Gained 3 pounds

Linda Lou

Molly

• Pretty good week. Good on not bingeing and limiting pop. However really enjoyed my thanksgiving 

Carrot Top

• Exercised twice this week.  Working a lot and sitting a lot, but the exercise made me feel so good!  Food...eh, still having trouble being totally healthy.  I get tired and really hungry and eat what I want. I know the key is exercise 5 days a week min.  I will focus on the health aspect and not think of it as a way to lose pounds. 

Sarah

• Lost 1.5 pounds
• SHARE: 1.5 lbs lost this week so great week for me. I do have a family get together today where there will be a lot of food so hopefully I can hang on! Still haven't found a way to switch my workouts to mornings instead of late evenings. Other than that I feel more on track lately!  

Stephanie D

• Maintained weight for a total loss of 7 pounds
• SHARE: Im late, but down NOTHING....Yep 2nd week, wait 3rd week in a row.....better than going up, but not going to meet the goal unless I get in gear.  Life is seems to be getting some order now so I NEED to get back to the gym and eating better!!

Stephanie K (aka: Steaming Myself to Hotness)

• Gained 2ish pounds for a total loss of 2.4 pounds
• SHARE: 17 is looking real hard to achieve! 

Camille

• Gained 1 pound for a total loss of 4 pounds
• SHARE: I almost missed my chance to report my weight gain BUT it is only 1lb. from last week so I'll gladly take it.  I am still eating left overs but I can report only 1 dessert which was a luscious bar that Stephie made.  My biggest downfall was the appetizers so I will need to work on a plan as to how to avoid those at Christmas but anyway, I still consider this a prettty darn good week.

Kateo

• Maintained weight
• SHARE: I was able to maintain through Thanksgiving! Whoo Hoo!
