Hair Growth and Weight Loss Challenge 2015

Since I haven't been able to do my normal exercise routine I've been doing slow walks on treadmill and depending on how my leg feels nothing at all. Still wearing my wigs. I did go ahead and hendigo my hair this morning and took a lc pic. My hair is slowly growing and my back rolls are slowly disappearing lol! The pic on left was taken in Feb and the other one today.

Didn't lose the 2, but I lost 1.6, which still puts me about 0.6 lbs ahead of the projections I made on the 15th since I lost more than 2 last week. Now, I am set up to meet goal at the end of October if I continue to lose 2 per week from this point on. I am going to try to eat a lot more raw food this week since that's what I have in my fridge, and I need to get rid of it before I head to China. I didn't get to this morning, but I will be making lots of green smoothies.

@ClassyJSP: Did you do any of the 10-minute workouts? How were they? 10 minutes sounds more up my alley. I can do hours of lifting but cardio and I are just not friends.

I did one 10 min Tae bo tape I found yesterday for a quick workout. I plan to do a quick 10 min Pilates dvd in the morning
 
Skipped Tae bo tonight to switch things up I did 30 day shred level 1. I plan on getting my hair blown out at the salon Thursday so I can do a length check. I hope my hair has grown since my trim a few months ago.

Between now and August I want to drop these last 11-12 lbs
 
:usa:Happy Independence Day!!! I hope all of you enjoy the holiday!!:usa:

I've been MIA, but I'm trying to make losing weight a priority. I haven't worked out hard in months:cry3:

7/3 workout: Zumba: (20min) and Cardio Fix
 
Hello, I've been M.I.A. after my episode in the shower scare and working a lot. I went to the doctor's this Wednesday and found out that my blood pressure is 138/90. weigh now 197, and that my uterus is englarged. So, please send prayers my way.

Losing weight is so hard for me... I'm hovering at 167lb.. Been exercising to try to drop 10 pounds by Labor Day... My hair has slow progress but it is about 2 inches longer compared to last July.
 
I'm feeling under the weather today and it sucks, because I have a full work week ahead of me and I am coming on this weekend :( It feels like the start of a respiratory infection...

I got in a quick 30 minute workout yesterday, but I'm sure it was no match for the pizza and wings I ate for lunch. On the brights side I am taking Alli again so at least 1/4 of the fat I eat is being blocked. If I just cut back calories slightly and get in more exercise I should be able to lose 1/2 to 1lb a week for the remainder of the year.
 
Sorry I've been Mia...I've been so down bc I'm not able to workout and I gained like 6lbs in two and half months :cry3::cry3::cry3: I feel like crap and my eating hasn't been as good as before. Anyway I went back to neurology Wednesday and they're referring me to Ortho for my leg to see if its my hip. Hope they get this figured out bc I really want to continue working out and loose this weight. Hubby and I are renewing our vowels in May so I gotta get more than half off of me. Were going to have a wedding bc we didn't have one before so this is exciting.
 
I'm back on FMD. It's the only think that has enabled me to consistently lose weight. I'm nearing then end of my second week and feeling strong in my commitment. I lose 3.5 last week. I was expecting a drop today but so far just holding steady. I have through Sunday so hope to drop at least 2 or 3 by then.

For the last two weeks have been water rinsing every other day and using emu oil almost every day. My growth is steady and I'm retaining better. Making progress but not sure how much or how fast. I need 4 inches for my sides to reach SL. My nape is SL and the area below my crown is just reaching NL.

Just going to keep doing what I'm doing and hope it pays off.

Congratulations @HairPleezeGrow - your weight loss progress is evident and inspiring.
 
Scale says I'm 151.4

Did a quick 10 min workout this morning. Plan to do yoga after work

@ClassyJSP - you still have one of those things^^^^ <lol>??? Mine met with a sudden death last year after reporting false numbers. :lachen:

Congratulations and good luck on your challenge. You all are going to motivate me to either get on this friggin' elliptical machine that keeps staring at me or use the fitness center membership card that flashes me when I open my wallet.:ohwell:
