leighish - IMHO you're entitled to have a little birthday cake every once in a while, hehe... Especially if it was your son's cake (which I saw in the phot thread and which you must've worked so freakin' hard to make!!).
Sharpie89 - 3.8 lbs, WOOHOO! That's great!
And I feel for ya about the ticker--it can be sooo frustrating to have to wait it. You wanna show off all the progress you've made, hehe!
Arcana -
It always feels good to come here and confess your "sins"/announce your recommitment... Cuz you know all of us have been there before, and we totally understand. Good luck getting back on track, girly!
LucyFM - Holy moly, 6 lbs, that is
great! Looks like you are off to a truly awesome start, hehe. Keep it up!
JadeBlue14 - Aww, thanks for the encouragement. It really did make me feel better.
Congrats on your continued losses!! Keep on rockin' it, woman!
nicki rose98 - 11 lbs, yay! Congratulations!
junebaby - I agree with nicki; it's so refreshing to see that you have such a positive attitude... I need to be more like you when I'm disappointed with the number on the scale!
OnlyWomanInTheHouse - Congrats on the loss!
katyp - Oooh, good luck at weigh-in today! From the sounds of it, you should have some good news coming to ya!
And LOL, I know exactly what you mean about the headmaster's office! Stepping on the scale always feels sooo suspenseful to me... Like I'm waiting for someone to cue up the uber-dramatic music that they play on the Biggest Loser!
mojolove05 - Congrats on your loss! Again, someone whose attitude is so much better than my own. I lost 1 lb last week and I was pissed about it, heh (
so unwarranted). But personally I think it's best not to worry about having a "schedule," too--goals (and mini-goals) are great, but as long as you reach them eventually, there's no need to put extra pressure on yourself to reach it by a certain TIME, too!
preppingbride -
Bummer, man. Sorry that you had a bit of a bad week, but you absolutely have the right idea--hop back onto that treadmill, missy!
(JK, hehe!) I know you will get right back on track, and those 5 lbs will be gone in no time. Good luck this week!
QTestRDH - Aw, sorry to hear that you had a gain this week, hon. This is just your body's way of telling you, "Hey QTestRDH, I'm not going to put you back in the 220s
quite yet, but I just might go back there if you don't get your rear in gear!"
(Jk!). And of course you are right--this week
will be better. Best of luck!
Chance0421 - Oy, plateaus, what a freakin' buzzkill man! You go on and BUST through that sucker, woman! We all believe in you!
I weighed in at
180.6 lbs today, and I am pretty pleased with that. That is 1 lb down from Friday, heh (though only a net loss of 0.8 lbs since last Monday, booo). BUT, today is also my first day of TOM, so I'm probably retaining water, too. Eh. At any rate, I finally get to change my ticker, which I feel like I haven't done in
forever... So that's a positive!
This week/upcoming weeken are going to be sooo hectic for me, ladies. I have zillions of pages of reading, a huge Linguistics assignment due Thursday, and a Social Sciences paper due next Monday--blech! I really hope I don't turn to food to allay all the stress, but I fear that I might.
(WHY do I have to be such a terrible emotional eater?!) Wish me luck!
