7/22-7/28 Weekly Weigh In's - Page 2 - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

Hey Ladies...

I weighed in tonight and am down 6 lbs. That means I've lost all but 1/2 lb. of the weight I gained during vacation. Part of my new "renewed resolve" is to steady out the weight loss emotions some...don't get too high over the losses nor too low over the gains. I can't be "slow and steady" if my emotions are insane!

So, I will say that I am happy with my progress and look forward to another loss next week.

No gain, no loss this week. Hehehe, I knew I'd be in for this when I lost 4 pounds last week! I actually feel pretty good about it - I was OP all week, did my exercises and drank my water. If I keep that up (which I have to for 30 days now!), then I'm confident in a loss next week

A little disappointed.......but not upset. I worked out every day, and only 2 lbs lost.... This will NOT stop me from continuing my workouts, I'm actually have fun

Dyanm1...."only" 2 lbs.? I wouldn't call 2 lbs. "only" - that's GREAT!!

I've heard (as I'm sure many of you all have) that continuous losses of more than 2 lbs. per week are not only unhealthy, but the rapid weight loss virtually ensures that you'll gain the weight back within a year. Slow and steady wins the race...

Hi all,

Down 4.5 pounds...now to make it last.

Good luck to all for the next week.

first week of new diet plan is always dramatic.

SunDrop...I'm so excited for you! Your goal is just around the corner!

I think I've gained but I've decided that I'm not weighing again until August 1st. I'm in the midst of a "personal crisis" and trying to regroup on how I will continue my weight loss program.

Chalk me up to a small 1.5 gain. The joys of TOM (yeah). Eh well, easy come.. easy go

If I did the math right, SOMEONE slipped out of the 2's and down into the under 200s. CONGRATULATIONS SunDrop!!!!!!

You sure did it in a big way. Can't imagine how both must feel - losing 9 in one week AND being in the 1s again.

Dyanm1 · 07-29-2002, 10:15 AM

Jennelle,

I know 2 pounds is good, but when you work your butt off (so to speak) you kinda get disappointed. I was sure I sweating out at least 2 pounds a day

. After a whole weekend of "playing" and not sticking to any kind of plan, I'm praying I lose another 2 pounds!

SunDrop · 07-29-2002, 12:14 PM

Thanks everyone and cogratulations to us all for our hard work and purposeful actions.

Anagram, I was hanging between 198 and 203 for the last 4 weeks or so, I have a tendency not to post when I stay the same, I know I need to get over that. I was at 203 when I started my new plan and consider that my starting weight this time ; )

It does feel good every time I see "1" something- sometimes I just stand there thinking I used to weigh 275 pounds-

My new goal is 175 by my Birthday- Oct 10.
With the great support I get here, how can I fail?
