Weekly Weigh-In: Oct 22-28 - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

LaurieDawn · 10-22-2007, 06:06 AM

I skipped weigh-in last week, so my loss is for both weeks, but I'm still quite excited.

Down eight pounds! One more pound to go and I will officially be "overweight" instead of "obese!" Can't wait for that to happen!

I am starting at 262. Hopefully one week from Wed. I can post a loss! Looking forward to October 31.....for my first official weigh in.

Down 1.

Good job LaurieDawn! Wow!
I am posting a 2 week loss, too, because I was gone last week. But, mine is not quite as impressive!
I am very happy with my 2.8 pound loss though!

207 down 2lbs. Next week should be a really good week since no more TOM. Did really good over the weekend but hubby took me to a rib place yesterday to eat, that was the only thing I ate all day. Hopefully the extra 2lbs is water retention from all the sodium.

I am down to 283, though it's been fluctuating between 285 and 282 the last few days. Monday is my official weigh-in, though, so 283 it is. That's a drastic drop (9 pounds) from last week, but that's normal for me when I first start counting calories again. The first couple weeks I have a "whoosh" and then I settle in for the one-pound-a-week long haul.

Way to go, everyone!!! Keep up the great work!

I'm down only 0.6 lb today but I'm still having tremendous water retention issues. I have started a water/cranberry regimen and am hoping to see this fluid come off. I'm still glad for the REDUCTION on the scale even if it is small. I stayed on plan and exercised all but 1 day last week.... I will get there.

Down 2 lbs this week.

GirlyGirlSebas · 10-22-2007, 10:17 AM

Down 2.4 pounds.

Rhonda - I was SO hoping to see that 229 on your ticker because you've been working so hard for it. ALMOST THERE! Great work!

And thanks, Diane, for the attagirl. And great work on losing while on vacation. That is the toughest time to lose or even maintain weight, IMHO.

Hey, LaurieDawn....you're just too quick for me this morning! I've updated my ticker. I'm now in the 220's!

MetaChick · 10-22-2007, 10:25 AM

Down 2.8 this week. Within 1.2 pounds of no longer being morbidly obese, just regular obese. Yay!

I am rarely too quick for anyone! GREAT WORK!

I'm surprised you weren't shouting from the rooftops! I know it's been a long-term goal for you.

Scale says 259.4 this morning.

That makes me down 3.2 pounds since starting this thing less than a week ago. I know a lot of it is water, but still, I'll take it!

Miss Lili · 10-22-2007, 11:23 AM

It looks like everyone is doing well this week - congrats to all! I started the week off with a bang, working program really well, and as the week wore on started slipping here and there. Still, I had a good result - 6 lbs off this week. I know it was primarily water loss, last night alone I got up three tmes in the night to go to the bathroom, something I never do. Still, you have to get the water weight off in order to start working on the fat weight, right? After staying stuck last week, I'm happy to be making forward progress.
