Hi all.
Guess I will be the first to sign in ( since I am officially a Wed weigher)

Despite going to family gathering, eating my moms ( not low fat) food and exercising a lot less than normal, I managed to lose 0.6 lb this week....

I have 6 lbs till I get to the all important under 200 lb mark. I hope to get there by Sept. Time will tell.

Tina

Wow, Kady----you did great!!!!
I'm sure you'll make your September goal.

Good luck to everyone else.

Okay, everyone needs to start posting!!!

I was up a pound today. I'm not surprised since I drank way too many diet colas yesterday. It was a stressful day (yesterday) and I just drank every drink in the frig (3 of them).

Hope everyone did good.

Bad news - I didn't lose any weight.
Good news - I didn't gain any weight.

I am very consistent!! Downright boring!! I need to lose 3 pounds by the end of August. It sounds so easy, but things aren't happening.

Weelll, I didn't WI last week ( on vacation), and I didn't WI this week (worked a 12 hr day, was tired. :( ) So I guess I'll see what next week brings as far as weight. Hope everyone else had good luck on the scales. Have a GREAT week end everyone. :D ....Sis

Hi all,
I'm afraid we're not using this thread enough---that includes me.

I weighed on my scales this morning and found a 1 lb. loss. I keep seesawing back and forth. Hopefully, I'll get on the right tract.

Tina, I always seem to do the up and down thing too! Same weight here. At the beginning of the summer, my goal was to lose 10 pounds by the time I went back to school. Lost 7 pounds, and then nothing!!!! I hope to lose 3 more pounds by August 31, even though the kids' first day of school is the 26th. Giving myself a few extra days there!! lol

Great on the 1 pound loss!!! Hope everyone else has a loss also.

Hi Saffista,
Congratulations on that great loss!!!!! Hitting your 10% mark is quite an accomplishment!

Tammy I know about those goals....I wasnt expecting much over summer....have lost 10 lbs so far...now I really really want to lose 4 more so I will be under 200 lbs. I think I will borrow your stretching to the 31st of August LOL.

Weigh in last night....1.8 down.

Tammy
08-16-2002, 02:33 PM
Good job everyone!!!!!! I don't think that I'll ever hit that 10%. I'll be thrilled with 5%!!!!

Tina

Ended up not WI last Thurs. Had to take Mom to Dr. Her wt stayed the same. (was hoping for her to gain) They added more meds which didn't make her any too happy. She's holding her own with a little progress here and there. Prayers appreciated. Will WI this week for sure even if I'm up. :) Have a great week all....Sis :D

Tina

Good evening all,
Sis, I'm sorry your mother isn't doing as well as expected.
I don't remember what he trouble is. Do you mind me asking?

Good luck at weigh in next time.

Hang in there Tammy and Deex....you WILL reach your 10% goal and more. ;)

Sigh...went to the school today to get some work done. Where has the summer gone? Although its going to be a jolt to my system going back to work, overall I think it will be easier to lose weight if I am working. I need routine; and all this time in my house surrounded by food...makes it difficult.

WI is tomorrow...keep ya posted....Im hoping for great things this week....but...TOM so maybe not.

She was in a bad car accident back in January and was in ICU for 2 weeks and in the hospitol for quite a while after that. She had major internal damage and had surgery on her diaphram and lost a kidney as well. She is in her late 70's and is just not getting well as fast as she or we would like. She's a fighter though and thats the good thing. :) Thanks for asking.....Sis

Hi all. Don't ask me how after missing 3 wks in a row, but I lost a half a lb. Not much but great after 3 wks missing. I was happy with that. :) (I probably lost another 1/4 cuz after I got home I found my change purse with quite a bit of change in my shorts pocket. :lol: Hope everyone else has a great WI.....Sis :D

Weighed in today but I didn't want to. We have had in-laws for a week now and I feel like I have been cooking and preparing snacks for an entire week 24-7! :mad:

I have resisted temptation by avoiding desserts and choosing lighter fare for lunch. I walked alot, it must have been all those trips to the supermarket but I lost 6.4 LBS this week! There are now officially 31.8 fewer LBS of me! :D

Tina

WoW---Saffista
congratulations on that large weight loss.
My father-in-law just left after 5 days. I think I only gained a pound. We both did good. ;)

Sis---congrats on your loss. Be sure to empty those pockets next week. :twirly:
I hope everyone has a great Friday and a better weekend.

Once again I am down to my normal weight (which is where I've been at for ever it seems like) I weighed on the 15th and was up a bit... but Saturday I was back down by 3 pounds... I guess thats better then up more! Now to figure out how to get past my "maintaining weight" :chin: ... I wont have troubles maintaining if I ever hit goal!! :twirly:

Just thought I would do an update... have a good week all... and good luck on your next weigh in's...

Hi all....I just got home from my weigh in and and totally thrilled. I lost 3.2 lbs; which is great but not what makes me so thrilled.

With this weeks loss I am now in onederland ( under 200lbs). This is a real milestone for me.

Hope everyone is coming back to the thread now that summer is over.

Kady, it's so wonderful that you are in the 100's now.
I am so proud of you. You have worked hard and it's paid off for you.

WAY TO GO KADY!!! I am so happy for you!!! :) My loss this week was a good one also. I lost 2.25 lbs! I was so surprised! I think that thyroid pill is doing something cuz I am no longer going up-down-up-down. This makes my loss 91 lbs. I have been hanging around that 90 mark for a very long time, now I have finally passed it! :D Hope everyone else had good luck at the scales this week. Have a GREAT week-end all....Sis :rollin:

Tina
08-29-2002, 04:57 PM
Sis----that's great news.
You are going again!!!

Saffista-- how are you doing this week? I hope you had a good weigh in.

We are getting some losses posted. Now, even if you didn't have a loss -----post anyway.

Tina

Kady
08-29-2002, 11:58 PM
Tina... thanks for your kind words...the support I get from this site in general and you in particular has definitely made a difference to my success at losing.

Sis...wow...91 lbs....how long have you been at it.....Its wonderful when you break through a stand still point....You must be feeling great.

Someone at the WW meeting said she used tortilla's as a substitute for pie crusts...very low points...hmmmm might have to try that out.

Kady way to go on loosing so much this week, and getting below the dreaded 200 mark!! You're doing great!

WOW Sis you're doing fantastic!! Keep it up! Sounds like them thyroid meds are helping you out.

Tina, great job on moving them scales in the downward direction!


I've stayed the same.. still. I know why...I just can't motivate myself these days to anything. I start to journal.. blow it, then forget to journal for a few days... start again... and blow it. I don't do any major excercising...just walking around "very slowly" at work every day... and climb stairs at home (the bathroom is upstairs...LOL)... other then that no motivation or energy. But enough of this down talk :) :)

Again a BIG CONGRATS to all you loosers!! in the best of sense:lol:
Dee

Tina
08-31-2002, 12:22 PM
Dee---- I hve an idea for more exercising-----
Drink more water while you're home. That way, you'll have to walk upstairs to the bathroom more. :dizzy:

You'll get those scales moving downward really soon.

Tina

Kady

Why is it that we are so hard on ourselves when we stay the same? Maintaining is half the battle and if sometimes our lives /motivation cause us to stay the same we should be happy that we can pull that off. Now that we are losing weight we have two goals......one to lose more weight and get to our ultimate goal and two , keep off the weight we've already successfully lost.

soooooooooooo...Congratulations Dee on staying the same!!!!
