I am going to lose one pound this week.
Just you try and stop me. :lol:
Seriously, I've been back to 3FC for two weeks, and haven't lost yet. :( It's not because it's taking my body a while, or because it's TOM, or because of any excuse I can think of (cuz I've tried real hard to think of some :devil: ). It's because I haven't changed my eating at all!!! Every day I say I'll start tomorrow. Well, I'm starting today. That middle number in my sig is going to read 179 next Friday. :D Anybody else in a slump and want to try to lose just one pound this week? WE CAN DO IT!!! AR |
If I lose a whole pound in a week, it's a great week. But I've recently recommitted to being as healthy as I can be so I'm game for trying for a whole pound. At weigh in yesterday I was at 209.8. So I'll see what I can do by next Friday. No excuses.

Hi
My goal is to lose 1 pound a week until Feb 2005 :dizzy: That's when I'm going on vacation. My husband says if I do it he'll take me out :D I lost a pound this week, my goal was 1.5, but I'm happy with the loss. Slow and steady wins the race ;) Diana :wave: 216(9months pregnant :bb: )/197.5/147 |
It's good you have you both along. :D I do some holiday challenges on 3fc, but I just can't stay motivated for more than two days.
Yes, I think it would be easier to maintain eventually if we all just ate better and exercised more, without looking at the scale. But for me, I need that extra motivation. I had a good night last night. Usually, if I eat junk food earlier in the day, I say to heck with the whole day. But I regained control and stayed under 1500 calories. :) That's what we're going to have to do in the long run, right? Be able to splurge sometimes, but then regain control. Have a good day, everyone! AR |
I'll join you ladies.... i can commit to a lb a week. Maybe once this becomes a habit i can up it to 2 lbs a week...lol I need to make better choices about my eating as well. I think i am going to start a food journal... NO, I AM STARTING A FOOD JOURNAL. Today!
Maybe i can find my hot spots and figure out a way to do better. Sandy:flow1: :dance: |
Hey I am in! I have been trying for 3 weeks. I lost 8lbs the first two weeks and nothing last week. :stress: What are you all doing for excersize?:strong: I am run/walking.
Good luck to you all and I will check back next week! bye :wave: Ladaha |
Welcome Sandy and Ladaha. :)
Sandy, I used to be able to lose 2 lbs a week... that's my eventual goal, too. :D But I haven't lost for a long time, so I'm just going to go for one this week. Good luck to you! Ladaha, hi there! Hmm, exercise... I'm doing weights and sit-ups every other day, trying to walk every day. I am at one mile now and plan to add a mile every week until I'm at four (that would be about an hour's exercise). OK, only five days until I weigh in... AR |
Hi Everyone,
Mind if I join in? I was doing well with my losses until approximately 3 weeks ago, and now Im stuck. I bounce back and forth from 179 to 180. Im stuck more often at 180. Ive added more exercise and cant cut anymore food, I dont think. I have never kept a food journal before. Lots of women here discuss them. I suppose it would be worth my effort to keep one? Maybe I am eating more than I should, or possibly things I shouldnt, that Im not considering? I would truly love to be back loosing, and 1 lb a week would be awesome. I will go tomorrow morning and pick up a journal and begin writing everything down. Thats a good place to start. Thanks! Talk to you all later! |
Hi everyone,
I'm jumping on the bandwagon to lose a pound a week!!! I'll weigh in tomorrow a.m. and post in my signature! And for those who want to start a journal and record their food, and other things like weight and exercise..... may I recommend www.fitday.com! And Kevin..... if you're female, you're the second girl I've known named Kevin.... went to business college a zillion years ago with a girl named Kevin..... |
Hi JoyfulConnie,
Yep, Im female. My dad's strange sense of humor I guess. Ive never met another female with the name before. My name is Kevin Michelle. But everyone refers to it as "Kevin Michael". They think Michelle is just a strange way of spelling Michael. Cool name though. I cant imagine having any anything else, fits me to well now.:) I tried fitday once. I was too confused and never went back. Maybe I should give it another try. It was when I first started and really didnt have a clue what I was doing. Think Im gonna trying pencilling it for awhile though, and see how I do. Thanks! Have a great day! |
Hi All
I'm nervous for my weigh in on Friday. I haven't eaten well this week, but I have exericsed. I hope the one pound will be gone, never to be seen again. ;) Diana |
If all my days were like yesterday, I'd have no trouble reaching my pound for this week. However.......each day is a new challenge and I'm hoping to string together a few good ones in a row and reach that magic "ONE".
Having trouble sleeping (rare for me) and lack of sleep will probably be another factor to deal with today. I managed to lose 40 lbs since last year but have just been hovering around that 210 mark for several months now. NEED to get that downward slide moving again. |
Hi Kevin! Hi Connie!
Yes, Kevin, food journals help a lot. Sometimes I forget I had that half-glass of soda, or two helpings of something instead of one. That's why counting calories and "banking" them (or points for WW folks) helps keep people on track. :D Anagram, I'm with you on the each day being new. It's hard to mess up and then have to get back on track. OK, Sunday was a pretty good food day. Yesterday was bad. I think I ate because of stress. Never thought I did that, but looking back, I was a little tense, and I remember feeling relieved when I ate some cookies. Also, I ate out for lunch -- in the middle of a stressful day. Eating out is like an oasis from everyday life. Hmm, no wonder it's addictive?? ;) My motto for today: I WILL NOT EAT OUT FOR LUNCH! I WILL NOT EAT OUT FOR LUNCH! I WILL NOT EAT OUT FOR LUNCH! :D Everybody have a good one. AR |
I lost 1 lb this week. I am not sure if it was due to the fact that I really lost weight ;) or if it is because I bought a scale and now weigh in the am w/ no clothes before I eat breakfast! lol:lol:
:grouphug: ladaha :dancer: :dancer: :dancer: |
Yay!!!!!!! :D
Successful person!!!!!!! :) OK, one more day, one more day... I actually felt like getting take out for lunch, BUT I REMEMBERED ALL OF YOU and I ate frozen food instead. :) Something sensible for dinner, and then weigh-in tomorrow... :) AR |
