Welcome to the 3FC's general weigh in thread! Everyone is welcome to join, just jump in whenever your official weigh in day rolls around. Good luck, all!

Me: 188, down 1.5 pounds from last week. I still don't see much difference in myself, but I have more proof that others do. Last summer when I walked a couple of miles when I got home from work around midnight, no one really seemed to notice me. This year, I've had 3 or 4 cars stop and the drivers ask me if I wanted rides. One fellow pedestrian followed me for a bit a made a desperate bid to become friends. I guess I'm recognizably human now! I am in a small town with not much of a crime rate to speak of, so I'm not really scared of this attention. It's just odd compared to how it was last year.

I lost 2 pounds this week. I was so scared I had gained. We were on vacation last week and there were a few times that I did not eat so well. I did manage to do my cardio 3 times during the week. I think that is what saved me.

I'm 194 now (down 4 pounds!) -- the lowest I can ever remember being. Annnd I reached this weight on my birthday (Wednesday).


EDIT:
I'm 193.5 and my size 13 junior jeans are loose! *excited*

I am down 2 lbs. from my maintenance goal. 143 lbs. this morning.

I am down to 168 as of this morning. 4 pound loss after nearly 3 weeks without any progress. I have finally moved into the Overweight catagory instead of the Obese catagory. This is the lowest weight for me since I became pregnant with my daughter 7 1/2 years ago. I am soooo happy!

Aaaarrrrrgh!!!! Still no change.

Oh well, it's TOM for me. That's my story!!!

I have lost 3 pounds this week. I haven't been here for a while to post. Last week I gain a pound but didn't worry much about it because I thought I had ate to much salty foods that week and figure it was water weight. As of this week though it was a bonus to see a 3 pound loss.

Congratulations and Happy Belated Birthday

Thank you so much!! And congratulations to you too!

Sounds like everyone is doing really well, yay! My weigh in day isn't until tuesday so I still have a few days to go yet before I count it.

Glad everyone is doing great though, congrats!

I'm 181 today. 3 lbs less than a week ago when I started....and I don't think I was obsessed this week. I've had loads of family visiting and have let loose a LITTLE, but feel very under control and that is a very good thing! I have, however been to the gym 5 times this week and I stepped up the workouts a little, setting a goal for myself when I walk in of at least 30 GOOD minutes of cardio, and I usually end up with 35 or 40 and I'm dripping in sweat when I leave....yey!! This week is going to be another good week, I can feel it.

I'm up 1.5 lbs. from last week .

I'm determined to get it off by next Friday though so I'm going to make sure I keep on track with my calories and maybe do a bit more exercise.

Just a quick note, everyone. I just started working graveyard. That means I go to work from 11 pm to 7 am, instead of going to work at 3pm like I used to.

It doesn't mean much to this thread really. The only thing is I might start it late Thursday nights instead of the middle of day on Fridays. Or, I might just wait till I come home Friday mornings and start it then. I don't know how I'm going to do it, yet. I will still do, but there might be a slight change as to when.

Bummer on the shift change (unless you don't mind it, of course).
I hope for you it's temporary. It's a hard life trying to sleep all day and then staying up all night.
