how are yours working out?
oh, not that it matters, but I don't want to steal her identify or take credit for her 7 children...my last post was laid out a little poorly. Jem is the person I was quoting after the video insert.

bty, weren't you going to get a scale? maybe I should join the Y. lots of people are. there's a new one here. do you like it? I usually avoid crowds at almost all costs.

Re: Weightloss Pact - Week 4

Good day for me! I hit the 5 pounds lost mark this morning. Although I had to stand on one foot, naked, and hold my breath, tilt 45 degrees to the left, I did get the reading I was waiting to see!!

Thanks to this thread for keeping me accountable. If there is another thread for the next 5 pounds, I"ll be there. I am exactly 5 pounds from my ultimate goal.

Have a good day everyone!

Re: Weightloss Pact - Week 4

congrats Sherie on acheiving the goal!!!

I still have another 5 lbs to go to reach my desired goal as well. I'm okay with where I'm at but could stand to slice a few lbs off the waist.

Re: Weightloss Pact - Week 4

yay Sherie! you were so determined not to be discouraged, & it paid off.

tomorrow I'm half expecting to move the scale all over the room to get the numbers I want. -)

Tammy,, slice? eeewwww. your skirt looks good already, I just know it.

speaking of which, Holly, I'm glad you mentioned the similar (fruity trix) tops. they sound like what I've been looking for. I have very few good summer running things.

Re: Weightloss Pact - Week 4

Debbie,

I cannot overemphasize how much I love my new Triks running top (although I have to wait for warmer weather to actually run in it). It feels SO GOOD on ? by far the most comfortable piece of running clothing I have. The skirt is good, too, but I?m not sure if the Nike skirt isn?t slightly cuter (read: more slimming), but I haven?t yet run in that, either, with this cold snap. I bought the Triks skirt for hot weather, because it?s of lighter weight material than the Nike skirt and the fact it has a spanky instead of shorts underneath. The thing is, I always wear panties (microfiber ? extremely light) under my Nike skirt, even though the compression shorts are supposed to be panties, too, and so I have to get my courage up to wear the Triks skirt all by itself, because my panties show. Silly, I know, but somehow I feel undressed without my panties on.

BTW ? I can hijack this thread because I started it. As a matter of fact, I invite anyone, all the time, to feel free to totally hijack any thread I start.

Re: Weightloss Pact - Week 4

what running shirt did you get Holly? The white one that was on sale for $25? I was thinking of ordering that when I ordered my skirt, but was already choking at the price tag of the skirt . . .

I was hoping to get to debut my running skirt at the Pear Blossom this Saturday, but now it's supposed to be colder and rainy. Not sure what to wear now. I hate the thought of putting running pants back on after I finally got used to wearing shorts again.

Re: Weightloss Pact - Week 4

Tammy,

I?m at work now, so I?ll have to look at it again when I get home, but I?m almost positive it is the Trikstee.

http://www.skirtsports.com/products/TRIKStee-07.cfm[/URL" target="_blank">

I bought it at the running store for $40, which I didn?t want to spend, but like I said, it felt SO GOOD that I had to buy it. I got it in pink, and it looks great with the black skirt.

ETA - read the description they have of the shirt - exactly how I feel about it.

Re: Weightloss Pact - Week 4

Well now I have to get one. Don't suppose they have them at TJ Maxx. I was thinking (while watching the blizzard outside) about going there after work to look for summer things. I'm glad you posted the link, I was just going to go look for it.
Holly, maybe they'll pay you for their product endorsement.

(& thanks. open invitation for any of mine too. )

Tammy, I hope the weather does a surprise turn for the better. (here too for that matter. ) Too many people are waiting for that skirt!

Re: Weightloss Pact - Week 4

I have one of the Triks skirts too! Of course today was my long run (7 mi) and it was 17* and windy and snowing, so I couldn't wear it

Lovin' the new shoes - pink kayanos. There are a lot of men in my life - 4 at home and 9 at work - sometimes ya just gotta be girly in pink!

Re: Weightloss Pact - Week 4

I did check and that is the shirt I have. There was a white one too, but the pink looked realy good, and I don't even wear much pink normally. I don't normally rave so much about a product, but this one sells itself when you try it on, in my opinion.

Re: Weightloss Pact - Week 4

I love wearing pink.

I am the same weight again, no loss this week. Grrr, I am going back to writing everything I eat down. That usually helps me get a handle on it. Healthy eating all.

Re: Weightloss Pact - Week 4

Ilene, I feel your pain. I now it's those little stray nibbles that are doing me in.
