hello.

Thought I'd start a new page for us as the old one was getting rather long.

How are you all doing? Making progress towards your goal?

4/11: 178.5

GOAL: 174.5

hope you're all doing well. we're finally getting some nice weather out here. it was cold and gloomy all week but today i actually see some sun! :cool:

I'm cutting and pasting my entry over to this thread since I'm keeping everything on one....

I'm in!!! :strong: :cb: I definately need something to be working towards in order to make progress. My goal is to lose 6 pounds. That doesn't seem like much but dangit just losing 3 pounds and keeping it off would be a total miracle for me these days!!!

Goal 2 - Exercise 5 days a week
Goal 3 - Plan my WW Points

3/17 - 159
3/24 - 159 (I was 158 on 3/21)
3/31 - 158 (it finally stayed low)
4/7 - 158 (still)
4/14 - 158 (I'm happy since I've been eating a lot)
4/21 - 157.5 (I'm seeing 157 off and on during the week)
4/28 - 157
5/3 - 156 (I weighed 2 days early this time) :D
5/12 - 158 (I just can't get away from this number!!!)
5/19 -158
5/26 - 157 -- Oh well...at least I lost a couple of pounds.

GOAL 153

LA - congrats loss!

Liz - didn't know you were updating your first post. I just have been reading the new posts as they crop up. Congrats on your progress.

I did super Friday and Saturday. Sunday, not so good. I really want all of the candy out of the house!

Memorial Day Goal: 235

I measured this morning and I lost another inch! I lost 1/2 inch in my waist and 1/2 inch around the bust. Cannot budge the hips/thigh area to save my life. I have always lost my waist first so I guess I need to wait it out.

2 3/4 inches to goal :strong:

over 16 inches gone forever :dancer:

Ellie - congrats on inch!

I have weigh in tonight and will have a gain. Sigh. But I am going to go anyway.

only .2 down now and 9.8 to go.

hi all

sorry i'm late. my doggie had a little accident this weekend. i think he pulled a muscle. the vet gave him some anti-inflammatories but he's still hobbling around. if he's not better in a day or two i'll go back for x-rays. he seems in good spirits though and not in any pain (not enough pain to make him cry or wimper anyway).

up .5lb this week. i think i've hit another plateau. i've been bouncing between the same 2-3 pounds for about 2 months. time to start re-challenging myself!

hope everyone had a great weekend.

4/27: 178.0


GOAL: 174.5

Rabbit - Remember that adding to your exercise routine will effect the scale :) When I add or change something in my routine it will cause a slight gain while my body adjusts to it.

LA - Sorry to hear about your dog :(

Dani - Long time no see! Glad to see your back on the board :)

Ellie

Ellie - thanks. you're right. I usually see an immediate response on the scale also.

LA - hope dog is okay.

Happy - congrats on the 5.2 you've lost!

RABBIT

Ok...I had my first major break through today..........I took off my jeans (while I was changing for the gym ;) ) and......I took them off without unbuttoning or unzipping them!!! :dancer:

I think my Memorial Day goal may be in sight :strong:

Rabbit- Yeah on the small loss!!
