Weekly Weigh-in: Sept. 26th - Oct 2nd
 

Hello eveyone,

Doesn't it seem like September has flown by??

I was away last week on business, came back weighed-in and almost died because the scale was up 3lbs!!! The WW weigher noticied my horrified expression and tried to calm me down, was it my cycle? how about water retention from the plane?? I just couldn't believe that I had actually eaten that much to gain 3 lbs. I tried to let it go, but it bothered me all week.

So this past week, I went back on plan and when I weighed in - I lost 4lbs!!! So now I'm net down 1! I learned something, it's not that I put too much emphasis on the scale, I think I've gone back and forth on that one.

What I did learn is that - this stuff works! :D

I'm sorry to get so deep on a Monday morning. I haven't even had my coffee yet.

Have a good week everyone!

Well this week I've only lost 1 pound. But my monthly visitor is on her way so I'm not taking it too much to heart. I know I worked hard.

Way to go BethC and SillyFluff - a pound is a pound is a pound! Great job.

I'm down 3 this week - I've made it to Onederland! I've also exactly made my 4th 10 pound goal for a grand total of 40 pounds lost. Just wanted to thank everyone for all of their support so far.

NEWFIE!!!! Congrats--you are AWESOME!!!

Beth and Fluff: I agree with Newfie--a pound is a pound!!

I lost 8 lbs from last week--the 7 lbs I gained plus an additional pound, so my net loss is ONE!! I am right on target for my Halloween goal.

It's finally starting to click--this is a LIFESTYLE and not a DIET. I have to be OP DAILY and not just during the week.

Yeah Dee!! :hat: I have been waiting to read that! How does it feel????

I am down 2.3 this week, a nice number after last week's .8. I don't expect to see much poundage lost in the next few weeks because I started Body for Life today. Although I have been lifting for about 8 weeks now, this time is pretty serious stuff. I am expecting to see size change but not a lot of lb. change.

I'm not weighing in for another 13 days because I decided after my obsessive weighing and mini-meltdown last week I can only do it once a month or I'll end up losing my mind! Congratulations to everyone on their losses!

A huge congrats to you Dee! How exciting for you! I bet your pumped! Woohoo!!

Dee - Congrats on amking it Onderland!!!!

I lost 2.6 last week. I indulged in some emotional eating last night and managed to get right back on plan today. Big step for me. I am learning day by day.

Congratulations Dee! I'm hoping to join you in Onderland real soon!

Sandi - that's the ticket! It's not about "on or off" - it's about making good choices and if one you make isn't so good, go back right away! Good for you! :D

Down 1lb, I'm happy with that one pound is one pound, and every pound counts

Woo Hoo!! Congratulations Dee, that is awesome! And to all of you for being committed and working towards your goals. And a special congrats to our lovely Sandi, I know that was HUGE for you. You're doing it sweetie, one day at a time, and I am just unbelievably proud of you right now. Great job!

Great going everyone. Dee that is fantasic. Keep up the good work.

Woo Hoo! Welcome to ONEDERLAND, Dee! That is so terrfic! :D

Down 2 lbs more to 233, 9 lbs away from my half-way mark. :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

WTG everyone on the losses.
DEE--Big congratulations on jumping right in to ONEderland. :bravo:
SANDI--You go. I'm so proud of you for making it through the emotional eating and not giving up. You are well on your way.

I'm also trying to not weigh in so often to keep it from being just about the numbers. I may weigh in next week since it will be two weeks.

Sandi,

Good for you for getting back on track right away and for your loss this week. Every step towards this becoming a lifestyle is a boon to your journey. Eventually, it will not be emotional eating...it will be emotional butt-kicking workouts, an emotional bubble bath, or a good cry!! Keep it up!

2.5 pounds gone for me this week.
