YUPPS!!! 290.5 today up 1/2 pound!

Even though I did really good on MOST of my goals. I did only one day of Oxycise, but went to the health clube 5 days and did at least an hour of water aerobics,usually 1 hour wa and 30 minutes walking. On Tuesdays I do 2 hour sessions of wa.

The only day I fell off the good food wagon was Saturday when I was at the horse races and I was on the SEEFOOD diet.

And Kat, I'm right there with you on this needing to be a super week. We are leaving Tuesday or Wednesday next week for our trip. I reported that to my wellness coach and she has me comming in for an extra session this week, and said she wants the doctor to talk to me before I leave. Hummmmmm

Just made the cut
 

Jen hits 180!
 

Hey y'all

I've weighed in at 180 today. I've been trying to shift the 182 for ages (nearly a year!) :fr:

Today it's 180! Woohoo! Although I guess I shouldn't celebrate too early cosd tomorrow it'll probs b right back up at 182! :chin:

I guess it's that bike ride I went for yesterday - 18 miles just to go get some car part they didn't have!!! :censored:

I'm kickboxing tonight for the first time ever! I'll be Buffy the Backside Slayer in no time at all! (sorry Lush for nicking your name!!) :yikes:

I started out at 228, now I'm 180, goal weight 140!!!

Saying that, my Mum and I are having a studio shoot to mark our 21st and 50th birthdays in September..... Will have to get a wriggle on!!! :tread:

Keep up the good work ladies!

Jen :dance:

Okay, I'm taking this weigh-in. 250.0

That's a total of 28 pounds gone! I need to do better about water today since we're having extreme humidity.

Getting Back on Track!
 

Hi Ladies -
My turn to get back in the swing of things and hold myself accountable for what I am doing to my body.

I started losing at the beginning of 2003 and lost 45 that year. In 2004 my husband and I have been trying to start a family and I've been undergoing extensive fertility treatments which have caused a lot of stress and emotion. During the treatment cycles I have to limit exercise and the poor results have caused me to turn back to old habits! NO MORE OF THAT! NO EXCUSES! I am going to continue my fight for a child AND continue my struggle for a healthy life!!

The past month or so the scale has fluctuated from 297-302 :fr:

Up from my low point of 283-285.

This morning the scale was 300.0 on the dot! I NEVER want to see that number show up on my scale again!!!

I am hoping this thread helps me add more accountability to what goes in my mouth and gets me back on the exercise bandwagon...

Today starts a new beginning! :D

Highest Weight: 328 (1/03) :(
Starting again weight: 300 (7/20/04) :o

WEIGH INS:
7/20/04: 300 :fr:
7/23/04: 296 :)
7/30/04: 298 :o

I know it's Thursday night but my Tuesday weigh-in was 287 down 1 pound. As I am now writting this from a hotel room in Arlington VA and have been on the road three days now and will not be back for at least another week, I will not weigh in tomorrow. I'm using the excuse of a different scale! Anyway I feel I have done really good on this trip. My plan of action was to eat only healthy snacks while in the car, but I have done better than that. I have not eaten any snacks, and I have made reasonable choices on the meals I've eaten. That is such an improvement, as I usually use a trip and a carte blanc invitation to eat anything and everything. Cross your fingers that this will power holds up!

OHHH,OHHH.OHHH

I thought I was being Soooooooo good on my trip and when I weighed in this morning I am back up 8 pounds!!!!!! Bummmmer :censored: :censored: :censored:

This is why I have such a hard time, I think I'm doing so good, and get blasted for my efforts!!! If I had some beer, I'd cry into it. I know all the right things to say to myself, and all the right things to do, etc, etc, etc. But instead I want to just set here and scream:

It's not FAIR!!![SIZE=5][COLOR=Magenta]

No, I don't feel better getting it out of my system!!!

BarbG: It's okay - take a DEEP breathe - there - now, lets just accept it and go on. ( I am writing this for me too because I need to grab the bull by the horns and take charge)

I will be back with my goals for this week.

Ok well here goes.

Yesterday I weighed myself and was 295. That is down almost 15 pounds since just before my hernia surgery on the 22nd of July. My waist is 58 inches, give or take as I am wearing a big girdle type thing and have staples and a bandage on right now. I go back to the doctor on the 9th when I will have my staples removed and hopefully get the ok to start exercising again. I will be starting the Michael Thurman 6 week makeover, which will probably take more like 104 weeks. :lol: My goal is to get down to 150 or 175, whatever looks and feels healthy to me when I get there. I am not making a schedule of losing so much by a certain date. I feel if I do that and don't make it I might find it too depressing and cause myself too much stress. My goal is to steadily keep progressing. I do plan on gifting myself when I reach certain mile stones, like 250, 200, etc. That is a schedule I need to think about though and what I really want when I reach each of those. But until Monday, I am on hold.

Daily goal: Eat less, move more. Drink lots of water.

Three weeks on the road behind me now--I stayed under my calorie target the whole time, but got no exercise.

I know I've lost weight but I don't know whether I'm under 300 or not. I guess this weigh-in thread might motivate me to buy a scale that actually weighs me.
