Alternachicks - Weekly Weigh-in June 29 +

WOO HOO!! First week of South Beach done and I have lost 5 pounds!!!!
That in itself is enough of an upper to help me get through week 2!!!!!:D

Great, Den!
I am still 203 - over two weeks now with no loss!
However, I start South Beach on Wednesday so......

Congratulations Den! :hat: What a great start! :cp:

THANKS!! You both have seen me start and stop MULTIPLE times. Hope this one is it!!!! (Ruth-It is GREAT!!! And you can have wine again in week 3!!!)

Woo hoo! I lost another 1/2 pound :cb: I am slowly making my way to the 10 lb mini goal :D

I am now at 164 lbs!

I'm stuck, stuck, stuck in a rut. But its my own fault since I haven't made any effort to actually, well, lose any weight. :rolleyes: Holding strong at 174.

YAY MAUVAIS!!!!!!

Thanks Den! :D

How is the South Beach Diet going this week?

Congrats Den and Mauvais! :cb:

Sojo & Ruthxxx - Maintaining is better then gaining!


I hit 170. I am going in the wrong :censored: direction. I think I am going to try WW. It seems to be a diet I may actually be able to stick with. :mad:

well, back from Toronto with lots of work! Just had the 'official' weigh in at Dr.s and am down 12 pounds this month. so, I made the goal! Thanks for the support.

Way to go Ginya! :cb:

Awww....Squeaker :grouphug: hang in there girl :mouse:
My best advice about WW is to make sure you are serious about it-it takes some work i:e grocery shopping, meal planning and acquiring new healthy habits but it is worth it. If you do it in a half-a$$ manner then you probably won't lose and will be wasting your money (moi :ink: speaking from my own experiences-:lol: )

Make sure you are doing it for the right reasons and for yourself and make the commitment - :D

Ginya-YAY!!!! Good Going!!!!! (Did they quarantine you again?!?)

Squeak-YOU CAN DO IT!!!! Just come in here and SCREAM AND YELL when you want to eat bad things....helps sometimes!!!!!

Mauvais-I think I am actually detoxing!! I have always been a crunchy/salty snack fanatic, and I sat on the same couch as my Doritoe eating family a few nights ago and didn't have any!!! They smelled good, but I didn't really want any. This is almost miraculous for me!!!!

Ruth-Did you start today? How is it feeling so far? I know you are used to low carb so it might seem pretty normal to you.

Sojo-Maintaining is GREAT!! I gained all my weight back + 5lbs before I started up again.

Thanks Mauvais & Den. :)

I need to do something, almost none of my shorts fit. I refuse to buy bigger clothes. And I can't go around naked everywhere...

Squeak-Well PERSONALLY I'd kind of like you to go around naked everywhere.....

Ahem! I am 198 as of this morning! That's from 205 to 198 since Wednesday! SBD really works for me - although giving up the vino must have helped.

Ruth-CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! You are doing a WONDERFUL job!!!!!!
:bravo: :cb: :cp: :dance: :dancer: :balloons:

WOO HOO!! I just finished week 2, (and ALSO phase 1!!) and I've lost another 5 pounds for a total of 10 POUNDS!!!!!! This is really working for me too!!!

Gee whiz, Den! Good going! Do you think this is the "magic pill"?

Congrats Den & Ruth!!!!

:cb: :bravo:

Den - :lol: I can't go outside naked!

Squeak, shave "down there" and put on two round corn plasters. You'll be fine. You'll be amazed at how little people notice.

Congratulations Den and Ruthxxx!~ :hat: :cb: :bravo:
